A LITTLE GIRLS EXPERIENCE IN
 A LIGHTHOUSE

A LIGHTHOUSE
 MT and Mrs Loren Prescott are keep CTS of the Gov. Lighthouse at Sand Beach, Mich. and are blessed with a daughter, four years old. Last April she was taken down with measles, followed with dreadful cough and turning into a fever. Doctors at home and at Detroit treated her, but in vain, she grew worse rapidly, until she was a mere ''handful of bones". Then she tried Dr. Kings New Discovery and after the use of two and half bottles, was completely cured. They say Dr. Kings New Discovery is worth it's weight in gold, vet you may get trial bottle free at W. H. Camps drug store.

R. at Washington, D. c. Sept. 19. The train will leave Hartford in the morning and take passengers from all stations, and arrive in Washington at night. The fare for the round trip will not exceed $9 co. The date has not yet been an- nounced, but all in this vicinity who wish to go should leave their names with George l.. Parsons, Canaan, or Edward s. Roberts, East Canaan.
 Train No. IA of the O. N. E. & w.. road, which leaves Canaan at 4. .55 D. m, ., had nine freight trains to pass at Nor folk last Friday. The freight trains on said road are so numerous that it is frequently amusing to watch their ma neuvers while trying to tpass passenger trains or each other at Canaan. You see string of trains putting and run. ming east up grade like a school of suckers running up stream in the Black berry river. Then back down the grade come the trains blowing off steam while the air is rent with the ringing oi bells, the toot-toot-toot of whistles and the shouts of the trainmen.
