NEWSPAPER MAN.
Connected With The Greal Paper,
The Albany Express.
Makes Statements Which the PEG.
pie Should Know and IN
derstand.
They Will Interest Not Only to
the Newspaper Fraternity, bat
Everybody.

The popular and well-known Thomas
A. Lindsay, who is connected with AL
bangs On. Y. leading morning paper,
the Albany Express, makes an interest
ing revelation.
Everybody connected with the news
paper has known of the facts for some
time, aud can vouch for their truth in
every particular.
"For many years." said Mr.. Lindsay,
81 have been subject to severe spells of
headache and nervousness, at times al
most enough to drive man to insanity
from pain, loss of sleep. etc.
Medicines, narcotics, patent and pre-
scribed, did not give relief, and the all
ment increased continually. Having
read in the Albany Morning Express, at
different times. the advertisements of
DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy, concluded to try this remedy
and after the use of six or seven bottles,
found not only relief, but almost radi-
cal cure.
"The headaches are thing of the
past, while the terrible nervous spells
have gradually become less and less I'M
til now | have little or none of them left
and my sleep is natural and refreshing.
81 do not hesitate in saying that this
remarkable change is entirely due to DR..
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve REM
edy, and heartily recommend it for all
ments like my own, no matter the cause
of them"
1t is a fact that our great business and
professional men are fast finding out the
wonderful invigOrating and strength
giving powers of this most valuable
discovery, DR.. Greene's Nervura blood
and nerve remedy. 1t is the medicine
for the weak and nervous. 1t restores
health to the sick.
Its remarkable cure of Mr.. Lindsay,
after everything else had failed, makes
another conspicuous person, restored TO
health by its use, to add to the long and
notwithstanding list of prominent
and well.known people who are almost
daily publishing in the papers statements
of their cures by this grand medicine.
1t is beyond all question the greatest
curer of disease known at the present
day, and is the very best spring medi-
cine for blood and nerves. Everybody
needs a spring medicine, aud this is just
the remedy TO take. 1t is purely vege-
table and harmless, and is sold by drug
gists for 81.
This great remedy is the discovery and
prescription of the famous physician,
DR.. Greene, of 81 Temple place, Boston.
Mass. who is the most successful
diseases in this country. We would add
that the doctor can lie consulted free.
personally or by letter.

MIooLeBuRY ONE HUNDRED YEARS

The following statement by Jabez
Rogers, one of the early residents of
Middlebury, was printed in local paper
of 1873:
SIN 1893 came into Middleburv and |
counted every building in the village by
Middlebury Falls and found the number
to be 81; and IN the year 1913 | have
counted them again and find the num-
Der to be 346, of which 146 are dwelling
houses and II ware stores. The dwell
ing houses that stood here in 1893 were
chiefly log houses, and almost wholly
mere temporary buildings, built with
small expense. There are now 20 dwell
ing houses in this village, either of
which cost more than every building
standing in 1893"
The dwelling houses in April, 1898,
number over 365.

CHARLES T. YERKEs. to his palace will
alone represent an outlay of $4,000. Mr.,
Yerkes paid 100000 for his lot, which
has frontage of 81 feet on Fifth avenue
and l22 feet on Sixty-eighth street The
house itself, which. it is expected. will be
one Of the finest in New York, will cost
$500, 600, and its furnishings will swell the
total outlay to 81 100000 The heresidence will
be four stories in height, and among its no
ticeable features will be ornate bow win
dows overhanging both streets, a fireproof
picture gallery, 10l by 25 feet in dimensions,
and the largest private gallery in the coun-
try, an electric elevator. a conservatory
with an electric lighted fountain and a pa
latial billiard room,
One of the most novel ideas exploited is
that Of having the first floor one great room
divided only by silk tapestries and portieres
suspended from onyx pillars.
A few years ago Mr.. Yerkes went to Chi
cago with little money. He had been in.
terested in the street car business for years,
and as the representative of Elkins and
Widener, the Philadelphia magnates, he
soon had miles of cable roads in operation
in Chicago, where the Jingle of horse car
bells had before been heard He also was
the organizer of the Gas trust, and in very
short time his modest fortune had increased
| to at least So, 100000. Mr.. Yerkes soon be-
gan to attract attention as patron of art,
and among his treasures are pictures by
Meissoner, Millet, Detaille, Rubens and
Rembrandt
In 1891 Mr.. Yerkes erected magnificent
$4,000 mausoleum in Greenwood cemetery,
Brooklyn, and his gift Of $500, 900 telescope
to Chicago university last year attracted
worldwide attention. Mr.. Yerkes is a
handsome, determined looking man of Sc
years. Mrs Yerkes, who is a comely young
woman, with strong desire to shine in
New York society, is said to be largely re-
sponsible for the street car kings removal
to the metropolis.
