Pain the Teacher,

The best. however, is considered none
too good for free born American citizens;
and the pursuit of Joy and peace, as the
constituent of happiness, is one Of the in
siienable rights claimed for all men in the
immorta! Declaration of independence.
Mr., Henry l.. Weed of Belfast, Me-, has
had exceptional success in the pursuit of
that without which, in general, neither en-
joyment nor happiness is possible, good
health. He is a young man who. for thir
teen years, had been afflicted with rheuma-
tism. indigestion, and r cough. which last
WAS so constant and troublesome, partieu-
larry since a severe attack of La Grippe,
that he was apprehensive of con-
sumption.--two members of his
family having died of that disease.
He suffered almost constantly from rheu-
mstism, which particularly stfected his right
foot. to such an extent that he was fire.

many regular physicians and had expended
a large amour. of money for various popu-
lar patent medicines without receiving any
benefit from either. He says;
Saturday evening. Jan. 2s, last, my
right foot was so swollen and painful that
could hardly stand upon it; and, on the
recomine usstion of Mr.. Il. II. Moody.
druggist, of Belfast, bought of him one
bottle each of Rodolrs Discovery and
Emulsion and commenced their use
Within ~ hours the swelling had subsid-
ed and the pain ceased, and have not
been troubled with either since. have
not been free from rheumatism so long
at any time during the past thirteen years
Ny stomach trouble has materially i'm
proved and is still improving. My cough
has almost entirely ceased. have now
taken three bottles each of the Discovery
and Emulsion, and am continuing their use.
My general health is much improved and
have increased in weight; my appetite 10
better and my capacity for work much in
creased. In short.I am now in better health
than ever before within my recollection, and
ascribe il altogether to the wonderfully
beneficial effect of the truly remarkable

Fall River has another murder mystery
the details Of which in some respects re-
.emble the famous Borden mystery. Be
tween the hours Of 30 A. NJ, and r..
NJ, Tuesday. a farm house in the suburbs
was entered and Miss Bertha Manchester, a
young woman who was alone at the time,
was murdered, the top of her skuli being
crushed to jelly. A neishbor living close
by heard no noise during the day and saw
no one enter the house. Three large dogs
about the house made no disturbance. The
axe with which the deed was done was
found In the woodpile. This terrible deed
certainly recalls ,ividly the details Of the
Borden murders. The brutal hacking of
the skull resembles the manner in which
the Borlens we're killed. Several articles
Of value we're stolen from the Manchester
house, while nothing was missed from the
Borden house. This contrast. however,
may indicate but little.
The amount taken at the Manchester
house WAS Of no considerable value and
medical examination showed that aside
from desire to steal. to murder. or for re-
vense, there was no motive. The facts
thus far known imply that there could have
been no motive for revenge. There is a
possibility that the murderer Of the Man
chester girl and Of the Bordens is one and
the same--some stealthy nend with an iu-
sane desire for slaughter.
1t 10 said that Attorney General Pillsbury
does not appear in the trial of Lizzie Bor-
den because he hasn't confidence in her
guilt. Possibly the circumstances Of this
fresh tragedy may shake the firm convic-
tions which District Attorney knowiton en-
tertains Of Lizzie Borien's guilt.
