fair to come out victorious, and tins is
heraided with pleasure by the news

JUSTICES.
Here is the Whole Matter Exactly as It
Happened.

State Of New York, So
County of Washington, 80
Lucien Rodd of Whitehall, N. Y, being
by me duly sworn, deposes and says that
some years ago he suffered very greatly
with insomnia. nervous prostration and
his body was covered with sores, caus-
ing him great pain and annoyance. That
his head was so covered with sores that
he was hardly able to comb or even
brush his hair, so great was the pain it
occasioned.
That he consulted the local physicians
without successful result; that he took
quantities of medicine with no benefit
whatever that physicians told him his
disease was incurable and he had come
to the same conclusion himself and had
made up his mind to go to a hospital
and await death.
That just about this time he learned
about DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and
nerve remedy, which he began to use.
That this remedy entirely relieved and
cured him, healed and dried up his sores,
enabled him to sleep soundly and COM
fortably, and restored him to his ordinary
vigor and vitality, in short, made sound
and well man of him so that he was fully
able to work at his occupation, and has
done so since that time
mat he attributes his recovery to DR..
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve rene
dy, as it restored him when everybody

The Merchant of Venice.

This evening Miss Mary s. McCobb
will recite the Merchant of Venice at
Second Advent church. Miss McCobb
has been heard in several of our Maine
cities as well as those of Massachusetts,
and New York lately as a Shakesperean
reader and has received much praise.
The Bangor Commercial says:
miss McCobb shows great and pains
taking study, together with clear con
ception of the moods and feelings of the
characters she impersonates.
There should be large attendance on
these readings. On Monday evening
Miss McCobb will recite "a Midsummer
Nights Dream" Course tickets can be
obtained of members of the W. G. T. U.
and evening tickets at the door.

the diseased por ton of the ear. There is only
one way to cure Deafness. and that is by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness. is caused by an

hearing, and WHEN it is entirely closed Deafness
Is the result, and lnless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, nearing will be destroyed forever; ;

UNION MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE Co,

uNlUN MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE co.
1t is not given to every man to live in
a mansion, but for that treason people of
limited means do not decline to live in
a cottage; and by parity of reasoning,
while it is not within the means of all to
carry Ten or Twenty Thousand dollars
of Insurance, people of more limited
means will find it equally to their advan-
tage to partake of such smaller sums
as may be within their reach.
Thus, when a man is married and has
q family around him, it is source of
pleasure to own absolutely the house in
which they reside, but it is obvious that
every one cannot own his abode, and Just
here. one of the many advantages to
which the Union Mutual Life Insurance
Company's Trust Policies can be put
presents ITSELF
Suppose man aged 30 years resides
in house, the rent of which is 5000 per
year, if he has not the means to buy the
same. payment to the Union Mutual of
$75 per year-less than one dollar and a
half per Week-would secure the neces-
sary $500 for rent for period extending
25 years subsequent to his death, thereby
relieving him of all care and anxiety in
cident to the maintenance of roof over
the heads of his wife and children, should
he be prematurely removed.
The thousand and one ways in which
the Trust Policies of the Union Mutual
can be utilized, preclude,-for want of
of space-even their bare mention.
An Insurance journal in recent issue
said There are so many various plans
for life insuring, that no doubt it would
puzzle the most competent actuary or
experienced life insurance canvasser to
decide which would be exactly the best
one for the insured However, the I'm
ion Mutual Life. is issuing what it terms
a Limited Payment Life Trust Tontine
Policy which at once strikes the judy
ment that its provisions will better an
swer the purpose for providing for fu-
ture necessities than any Lite Insurance
Plan yet offered" ap29eodtf
