the oungllng work of the tsjack of all
trades" in medicine. That they have
met with success thousands will attest.
They have placed more human engines
on the road of health in the last few
years than any like institution in the
country. And whyf Because they are
men of the highest skill and Qualihca-
tons, educated in the great schools Of
the east, trained in the populous hos
pitfalls of the metropolis, experienced in
vast field of practice and enjoying the
aggregate thought and suggestions of a,
number of able doctors on their staff
who have Ito the exclusion of all acute
diseases and general family practice,)
devoted the best years of their life in
acquiring proficiency vastly superior
to any other obtainable.
Their examinations are thorough; there
is no hesitancy, uncertainty, or I guesa
you have this or that trouble with them.
They KNOW. If your case be beyond
hope, they advise your friends of the
fact; if otherwise, they tell you just how
long it will be necessary to be under ad-
visement and the cost, when you are
under no obligation whatever to take
treatment unless your judgment SO
dictates.
Iney have all the latest inventions in
apparatus, appliances and instruments
for the successful treatment and cure of
all forms of disease.
They do not publish the name Of any
cured patient without permission.
The cost of the treatment is deter
mined by the nature and extent of the
disease, but their charges in all cases are
as low as can possibly bs made and do
their patients justice.
The special offer of one months treat
ment free, to all commencing a course of
treatment, expires Mch. 1st, and posi-
lively will not be continued after that
date.

FIRE.

Daniel Young's house escaped destruc- tion on the morning of July 4, because it was July 4. As the family were at breakfast one of the members happened to go to the front door and saw smoke on the roof over the piazza about S.30. MT Young investigated and saw that fire had become seated in some concealed place. An alarm was immediately given but the spread of the fire was so rapid, that MT Young felt it was no use to at tempt to save the house. A dozen men were soon there and they went to work with will. Ladders were brought, hole was cut in the roof, the attic reach. ed which was densely filled with smoke and the window burst out. Water was drawn from his own we'll, until it was ex- hausted, thea the we'll across the road at Peter Smiths. It was at length subdued after the floors and inside was pretty generally drenched. The furniture had been largely carried out earlier. Itbeing the Fourth, people had began to gather for the picnic so that all the help that could be utilized was at the scene. This is the first fire for many years at the Cent CT. The building was insured and the in- surance company was immediately no- tified of the fact.
 The Sunday school picnic, owing to the unsettled condition of the weather, was held in the church. The galleries and organ loft were utilized for the refresh ment department. An hour and a-half was devoted to a literary entertainment consisting of singing of patriotic songs by the choir, recitations by the young misses, short addresses by the brethren. recitation by the chairman, Frederick Johnson, poem by the pastor on the consisting of about four hundred lines.

THE FOURTH IN NEW MILFORD.
 The Fourth of July passed off here with the usual amount of noise and rack ct. The rain interferred somewhat with the sale of fireworks in the afternoon. but people owning buildings and proper ty were very thankful to see it rain as the chances of being burned up were de- cidedly less. arhere was few accidents, but of slight nature. Seeley B. Rich mond, Jr., was burned on one of his hands by a firecracker, which was a trifle quicker than he was. Some wretch threw a large cracker among the fire works that Charles Treadwell was sell ing and he had hand burned; also his breast burned by large dynamite crack CT, but on the whole the day passed away with no very serious results and every one blessed with common sense is glad when the day, the most miser- able one of the year, is over and out of the way.

EXTENSIVE GARDENING.

Those who enjoy gardening would be repaid just now by visit to the gardens which supply the vegetables for the Vacation house, which are presided over by Andrew Irwin. The early drouth retarded growth sadly, but the rains of the past few weeks has caused a luxuriance of growth which is not ex- celled even in good season, so called. There are about three acres devoted to garden truck, and in addition he raises three acres of potatoes and other crops. The gardens are nicely laid out and are as "clean as whistle" MT Irwin has as assistants in the work, Ernest Carlson and John Schmeidel. There are about 65 people, all told, at the Vacation house, and no institution in the country
 is supplied with finer vegetables.

A little cannon fired at intervals after 5 q. m., with the occasion. al popping of a pack of fire crackers was all that lroke the monotony of peace and stiffness. Very few teams were seen go- ing to and from the lake. The picnic ar ranged in the yard of H. M. Bolles took place as announced in last weeks BEE, but the number of attendants were limit ed to that degree that MT Bolles' house near by held all who wished to stay after the rain commenced. Stores were clos ed earlier than usual that evening and all seemed to be at home at most sea- sonable hour, thinking perhaps how lit tie had been seen and done that day or pondering as to the cause of all this quietness on the day made so important and of so great consequence in the his tory of our country.
