Dr David Ken nedy's Favorite Remedy, more than any other medicine will do this for you. It will purify and dissolve the excess of uric acid in the blood, dispel that worn out feeling, make you sleep and eat we'll. It is prescribed by physicians everV- where for just this purpose.

BETTER ROADS.

The contest over the several road ma- chimes took place on the highway near the residence of Alfred ScOville, Thurs day. Some time ago the selectmen de- cided to invest in a road machine.
 There being so many kinds on the mar krt it vas difficult matter for our town fathers to decide which was the machine they wanted. After long delberation on the subject at several meetings they decided to have the several companies each send q machine and have them tested. Thrre were five forwarded and every company sent man along to ma nipuate their own mechanical produc- tion. After full days trial, under diff ferent conditions and different qualities of roads, the selectmen had cut the num- Der down to two but between these they didn't think they could with justice de- eide, as they were in their estimation so near an equality. The committee de- cided to lay the matter over until Road master Cook, who is sick with the mea- sles, experiments with each machine and give his opinion. The final contest will be between the "American Champion and The Western Reversible.'

THE BALDWIN WEDDING ANNI

THE BALDWIN WEDDING ANNIVERSARY.
 Monday, April 9, being the 60th annl- Versary of the marriage of Dea and Mrs 5. 5. Baldwin, their many friends gave them an informal reception at their home. At an early hour congratulations began to come in from absent friends unable to be with them, accompanied by bouquets of cut flowers and other re- membrances. At 10 a. m. guests be- gan to arrive and the bride and groom of 60 years soon forgot the infirmities of age in the pleasure of greeting the many friends, who came to congratulate them in having been spared to walk together the pathway of life for three score years and to wish them all happiness in the years to come. During this time, will ing hands were arranging in an adjoin- ing room, a table laden with gcod things, of which all were invited to partake. During the afternoon, singing and re-
 marks were listened to with much pleas ure. Rev Henry Upson of New Pres ton and Dea Edwin Seeley of Roxbury being present at the time, recalled few of their early remembrances of Dea Baldwin. Letters from absent friends were read and among them letter from the members of the Sunday school in Washington, of which Dea Baldwin was for 2l years the superintendent. Ac- companying their best wishes for their future years was substantial remem- brance in appreciation of the past. After singing favorite song, "Old Lang Syne," and few words of thanks to their many friends for this happy day expressed by both bride and groom, the company joined in the Doxology. All day and evening friends came and went | until at evening registry book showed the names of nearly 150 who had beer with them on this somewhat unusual wedding anniversary. Of Dea Baldwin,s | family all were present including four generations, Dea and Mrs Baldwin, their daughter, Mrs NJ. k. Kinney, her daugh- ter, Mrs Charles c. Ford, and the two great grandsons, Masters Frederick and William Ford. Of the company,
 only one was present who attended the
 first wedding 60 years ago, that being | William T. O'Dell. neighbor of Mrs | Baldwin, who at that time was only l about seven years old. Friends and rel
 atives were present from Bridgewater, Roxbury, Bethlehem, New Preston, | I1itchfield and Bantam. The remem- brance of this anniversary day will
 bring joy to this aged couple as long as life and memory last.

foreign trade has about trebled and our
farm values more than doubled. But it
is i'll wages and savings that the greatest
advance is shown, and where do we ever
see tho fruits of protection that we do
not sec increased wages and savings?
In the last generation the wages Of
our people have increased more than
sevenfold and our savings more than
twelvefold, and during the same time
we have paid off nearly 81, 900, 900, 600
of national debt. In 1860 our exports
amounted to 1888, 576, 057, in 1892 to
81, $50, 27S, las, and yet, enormous as is
our foreign trade, it is small indeed
compared with our domestic trade,
which last year was estimated to be
about $50, 900, 900, 900.
Now we are asked 90 give up this
grand home market in the hopes of in
creasing our foreign sales by a few mil
lions. We are asked to accept half or
quarter of these wages. We are asked
to draw out these savings and buy the
products of other lands. We are asked
to sacrifice these manufactures and
farms to impoverish ourselves as we did
just before the era Of protection began.
IL the Mckinley Lill is changed for
ono with lower duties, We shall lose
moro il decade than VIC have won in
generation. What a different set of
figures the 1900 column would show
after seven years of free trade! 1t cav
not last more than seven years at the
longest.

RICHARD GOLDEN A FALslFIER.

Without Protection England Cannot Hold
Her Own.
1t is astounding to note how falsified
are all the predictions of Richard Golden
and how true, i'll only 60 years, have
been the tatemcnts-unheoded at the
time-that the days would come when
Englishmen would have to submit to
German wages, German hours of labor,
German food, or to leave their land of
birth and seek for fair remuneration in
lands where protection to native labor
was in force. aud the bone sinew and
capital Of man was not handicapped by
pauper labor Do not all our ablest
statesmen of both political parties, our
bankers, our merchants, cur manufac-
turers concur with our landlords and
farmers that without protection, wisely
and carefully sustained, England can
not hold her own against all ''the civil
liked world?" Driven out Of all "civi-
lized markets, the search for new mar
kets among the uncivilized millions Of
Africa, who only use three yards per
annum Of calico to cover their loins,
will not replace the loss Of our Eu-
ropean, American, Indian. Chinese and
japanese customers. Cor. Manchester
