By the kindness Of the Brattleboro
Reformer, we are able to present a
likeness OF the so-called vermont
Schlatter,' Bradley 9. Newell, Of
Jacksonville, in the southern part OF
the state.
Mr.. Newell is blacksmith of good
reputation. He is 80 years Of age,
over six feet high and weighs 200
pounds. He says that while working
at his forge some time ago avoice told
him that he could cure disease by lay
ing on his hands. He first tried it on
his wife and her severe headaches
were driven away. Little by little he
extended the treatment until he has
treated about 1000 persons, for all
kinds of physical troubles. Some he
has entirely cured Others he has helped
and stilkothcrs he has failed to aid.
He makes no pretensions and does not
know whence comes his power. He
does not invoke religion or faith, sim
ply lays ON his hands. He recently
went to Brattleboro and was fairly be-
sieged by patients. He makes no
charge for his services, but accepts
what is rendered him. Many remark
able stories of his cures are told and
much interest is excited by him.

Indigestion is often taken for consump-
ton. The word consumption means vast
ing away, and dyspeptics often waste
away as badly as consumptives.
The reason people waste away is either
because they don't get enough to eat, or
they don't digest what they eat.
II the latter is your troub BILE, take Shaker
Digestive Cordial. This will help you to
digest your food and stop your loss Of
flesh.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is made from
herbs, barks and the juices OF fruit, by the
well-known Shakers at Mount Lebanon. 1t
possesses great tonic and digestive pow
ers.
Shaker Digestive Cordial has cured many
supposed consumptives (who were really
dyspeptics) by simply hei ping their stom-
achs to digest their food thus giving them
nourishment and new strength.
Sold by druggists. Trial bottles 10 cents.

PURPLE LEATHER.
A Desirable But at Present Not Pro-
durable Article.


Dressed in purple has always been an in
sigma of royalty, ana tanners are anx-
ious nowadays that this ancient and regal
hue be once more papularized. but this
time by all humanity. SO far as footwear
is concerned, and they are xperimenting
with purple dyes at heavy expense to
obtain the desired shade. Purpde is a
color that is most dificult to produce
satisfactorily. 1t was this quality as
much as its beauty that made purple
royal. 1t was the most costly. The
Tyrians achieved great success III the
dying of purple and the fame Of Tyrian
purple lives to this day.
Never in all tie worlds history has
there been tanned a leather suitable for
footwear today that has osen finished
satisfactorily a purple hue. Satisfactorily
in this case means ufiiformly. Small
pieces of leather haye been made of an
excellent .urp'e shade by chemists. hut
turning oat a purple whole side is a
different thing. The trouble is that the
leather has to be ironed. and heat is
deadly to purple. It drives back into the
original blue or yellow. Here lies the
difficulty, and an exchange says that a
dozen American firms are trying to over
come It, each knowing that the first one
of them to put on the market a novelty
in the shape of a uniform aud durable
purple stock will reap a tremendous har-
vest.
There are a number of uses for which
this shade would be demanded Mems
shoes, women's shoes aud sfIoey gessr-
belts, pocketbooks. valises, etc. Purple
imitation alligator and other fancy
feathers. are being experimental with.
Tanners and chemists. however. nave as
yet made little progress, and hence any
body with a good, sure purple can learn
q good deal to his advantage by
eating with the right tanner.-Leather
