A BETTER OUTLOOK FOR VERMONT.

The Vermont farmer who has been so
constantly taught for generation past
that the State was good one to ''emi-
CRATE FROM" has abundant reason for
complacency as he looks about the coun-
try. He has dug wealth out of the hills
and valleys of the Green Mountain State
that has not only enabled him to do what
the bank cashier says, but to stand enor-
nous losses from investments in distant
parts of the country. One reason for the
mortgage paying is that he has got cured
of his eagerness for these distant invest
ments. He is now willing to keep his
surplus earnings at home instead of rush
ing them off into pasture-land- building
lot booms a thousand miles or more away.
And just as quick as he changes his
course the effect for good is felt all around
him. Vermont has always had the soil,
of quick-re fertility, the climate,
the water, the natural advantages in ev-
cry way, for superior agricultural State.
The census figures prove it, and every
mans observation confirms them. The
conditions are wholly abnormal that have
of late Years caused such agricultural de-
cline. The bottom trouble, which has
brought so much OF encouragement. is
that no matter how well man made his
farm pay he has grown poorer for it. -
But the tide has turned. The lesson
has been effectually learned. And with
in the next 10 years Vermont>and her op-
portunities are going to be appreciated
by her own people.zkBrattleboro Re-

Story Of a Brandon Farmer.
1T HAS ITS OWN MORAL.
A Martyr for Five Years,

Mr.. Louis L. Parent, farmer, residing
in the town of Brandon, writes us the
following concerning his restoration to
perfect health by the use of Story's Kid
ney and Liver Cure. He says as follows :
For the past five years, | have been
victim of what my physicians called
acute kidney and liver disease During
this time. have tried many physicians
prescriptions, bur with constant failure
of them all to alleviate my condition.
About six weeks ago, | read of your
Story's Kidney and Liver Cure, and
thinking that possibly | might obtain
some relief from it, | purchased three
bottles. The effect of even the first bot
tie was something wonderful. Previous
to my using it, | was so badly run down.
that | could not even perform my duties
about the house, much less any of my
farm work. had palpitation of the
heart with all the rest, yet four doses
actually put me on my feet, giving me
strength to do chores about the house.
while my daily heart trouble began to
leave me. Today finished my third bot.
tie, and consider myself perfectly well
man. Story's Kidney and Liver Cure is
the only medicine in my opinion which
will positively cure all kidney and liver
diseases. | advise all to take it, who are
suffering from any such disease"
This letter is but one of many daily re.
ceived, all voicing the same sentiment

P. j. Sorg, a Democrat, has been elect
ed to congress in Ohio to fill a vacancy
caused by the death of Mr.. Houk. Houk,
who was also Democrat, was elected
in 1892 by 43l6 majority, while Sorg's
majority was only l72l. The New York

whom heads this column, and requested

ceiling to floor, his very soul was

not as great as that of the Queen of Sheba
when she visited the throne of Solomon,
but he had no idea that there was such
a stock of shoes, hats, trunks and UNI

as'in quality of goods. He has shoes OF
