over Stickney for governor that they neg

convention whom to support. In consequence
of no stir being made before the caucus Lud-
low probably sends three w. w. Grout dele
gates and one who will not support him. A

THE TIMES.
SATU RDAY, JUNE ID, 1895.
SPRINGFIELD.

N. w. Andrews is ON the ocean on his way
to visit relatives in Dublin, Ireland.
q. l.. Closson and wife are crossing the
continent to visit their eldest son, John ii.
Closson, a druggist in Seattle, Wash.
j. w. Pierce, chairman of the school board
and superintendent, was taken suddenly ill
last week and is still il. a critical condition,
though he is improving.
Eighteen young men and women graduate
from the high school this year, the largest
class in the history of the school. Neat invi-
tations are already issued to favored ones for
the closing exercises.
There has been a great change in the medi-
cal faculty in town, Drs. Haig, Worster and
Osgood leave town and DIR. Clarence Locke,
an old resident of the place, will open an Of

Furber, who has been practicing with DIR. w.

Memorial day passed off with success. Mr..
Flinn's address was much liked. The
day was fine for marching. The Sunday pre-
NlouS the u. A. IL. Wentto the Baptist church
at North Springfield and instead of the usual
sermon listened to an address from Miss Mary
Carley, Il young lady about 20years old and
one of the teachers in town. No newspaper
will err i'll calling this an innovation. The
address was said to be fine.
The last teachers meeting of. the year was
heldllast Friday. These meetings have been
of much benefit to the teachers and are gen.
orally appreciated. While the teachers were
discussing methods the high school boys were
enjoying their annual spring field day. There
was too little competition to make it very eX
citing. Howe took all the first prizes in his
reach though he broke but one record. The
boys had ajolly time and went home lame and
happy.
The present writer makes light study of
the political situation whenever opportunity
permits, but there is one thing he has never
been able tn comprehend, i. e., how any man
can so comport himself as to deserve to be
governor of Vermont. We read in the papers
that Stickney or Circuit or what-y ou-call-em,
being filled with all virtue deserves to be
governor of the state. Now Vermont needs,
and we think she deserves, the best possible
man for chief officer, and numberless of her
citizens need the office to satisfy their ambi-
ton, but do or can any of them deserve it?

with failure after failure until there
seemed to be no hope left. At last 1
was persuaded to give Puritana a trial.
The result was marvellous. 1t not
only relieved me, but it made me
perfectly well. Instead of being
doubled up with pain, Puritana has
given me a stomach like an ostrich,

There is nothing too strong for me to
