several, who have tried it and been
cured"
Here is the voluntary testimony of a
most estimable lady. that she was cured
by DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy.
1t is wonderful tribute to the great
value of this medicine in curing disease.
There is a large class of people who,
while not exactly sick, suffer from ex-
IRENE nervousness, feel weak and tired,
lack their Uld-time strangth and ambi-
ton. They do not eat or sleep well,
wake mornings tired, with dullfeeling
head and no inclination to take hold of
their work.
To all such we would recommend DIR.
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve RENE
dy. for it will certainly give strong nerves
and vigorous bndies-in fact will make
you strong and well.
This medicine is recommended by doc
tors. 1t is not a patent medicine, but
the prescription of the most successful
living specialist in curing nervous and
chronic diseases, DR.. Greene, of 81 Tenn
Pile Place, Boston, Mass. He has the
largest practice in the world, and this
grand medical discovery is the result of
his vast experience. The great reputa-
tiou of DR.. Greene is a guarantee that
this medicine will cure, and the fact that
he can be consulted by anyone at any
time free of charge, personally or by let
ter, gives absolute assurance of the bene-
fetal action of this wonderful medicine.

The alarm of fire given Wednesday
morning at 4 o'clock, was followed by a
long blowing of the whistle of the paper
mill, which in few minutes brought to
the scene of the fire, the drug store near
the depot, the engine and hose cart and
large number of people. A stream of
water, supplied from the large railroad
tank to which has recently been added a
hydraut for fire purposes, by the persist
ance of Depot Agent Spaiford and the
liberality of the railroad officials, was
soon playing upon the flames, which
were making rapid Roadway. There
was no wind, and soon second stream
was in use from the engine, so that the
dwelling near and occupied by j. Con-
nelly on the south side, and the barn
used by Cornelius Bromley on the west,
were protected by water so that little
fear was entertained of its spreading.
The fire on being discovered was so far
advanced in the cellar and first story
that no efforts could avail to save the
building or its contents. The lower
story was occupied by j. B. McNamar
for drug store, and the upper or second
floor, as Masonic Lodge rooms. The
roof being of tin, the dense smoke, which
entirely filled the house, made it impos-
sible to save anything from the building.
The fire company did splendid work and
demonstrated again the need and advant-
age of such an organization in our viii
lage. The building was owned by Mich
ael Healy of Bennington, and was entire
ly destroyed. Insurance, $1,000; stock
of drugs and shoes owned by j. b. Nc
Namar, insured for $4,000, and the fur
niture and fixtures of Tucker Lodge. in
sured for $500. The explosion of the
carbonic acid gas, used in connection
with the soda fountain, awakened neigh
bors, and this was the means of the
alarm being given as early as it was in
the progress of the fire.
