WASHBURN HEARD FROM.

Gentlemen About nine months ago my
little child was taken down sick with
what seemed to he bad cold, and a
cough set in; his stomach as SO weak he
would not retain his food and he ran down
in flesh rapidly. / employed two good
physicians and they treated him for six
months and he continued to fail and |
was fearful we should lose him He would
cough and strangle and it hurt him very
bad to cough, so that every time he CON-
menced to cough. or felt this tickling
sensation he would commence to cry and
scream.
He suffered terribly and one physician
said it was Indigestion. We were very
much worried. The child was daily fail
ing and his stomach would not retain any
thing but watered milk
One day l CHANGED to pick up circu-
lar In the street which carried home and
read the account of the wonderful cures.
1t was Rodolf's New Medical Discovery
and Cream Emulsion. ! went at once to
Turner Willey's and procured one bottle
and began to give 1t to my child. 1t
seemed to settle his stomach and he never
vomited afterwards. l continued to give
1t to him and he continued to gain. l
have given him two bottles and he gained
rapidly in flesh and strength and today
he can eat with us the heartiest vituals
such as baked beans, doughnuts. etc,
without distressing him. will say that
for less than two dollars expended in Ro-
dolf's Cream Emulsion saved my child
from a distressing sickness, and probably
saved his life.
Yours truly,

NEWPORT.
just now is mud time and as a result
business is dull. There are but few teams
coming in from the country except those
that bring milk for the factory. They
must come every day, except Sunday, TT
gardless of weather or mud. People eZ :
pect to hear flattering report of the
years work at the milk factory, when
they hold the annual meeting. May 18th, at
Thayer's hall, Wate-ville. A gentleman
who is we'll posted in the affairs Of the
company informed your correspondent a
few days ago, that they had fully demon
strated the fact that the business was a
paying one and had come to stay. This
news will, no doubt be highly pleasing
to tho farmers, as this industry means
more to them than anything else that
can be done in connection with the farm.
During the summer months the price of
milk will probably be dropped u little
which is a necessity to enable the factory
to compete with the New York factories
The only damage done by the late rains
was the loss Of one bridge, which is not
serious calamity rs the structure was
quite old and in many places weak. The
result will be a new substantial iron
bridge this season The town has two
more wooden bridges that span the Sc
basticook river in this village, both OF
which must be superseded by iron or steel
soon. -Highways are rough but coming
down fairly well as the frost works out
