this second will, and answer having been
hled, issue is joined and the case will
go to trial before jury. There is also
another petition for probate of this will,
which Judge Paterson has also opposed,
but issue is not yet joined herein. TIL
both these petitions are disposed OF the
proponents of the first will must hold
their peace.
Furthermore the late Senator's children
are placed in very awkward position just
now. For by the arrangement with the
special administrators before alluded to
they now pose as contestants of the
very will they themselves put for
ward. And the question remains
whether charges of forgery and fraud
having been made by the proponents of
the first will in respect 20 the second, will
the heirs-at.law take sides with them
when the trial of Judge Paterson's contest
comes up and assist in attempting to prove
the will which they themselves offered for
probate forgery? In any case, the liti-

that is rather long time to retain an off,

old country town of Groton. across the
Thames River from here, among rugged
hills, who have kept their towns record
there was the late Edmund Spicer, who
was Town Clerk of Ledyard, north of Gro
ton, still ruggeder land, for just twenty
years, when the hand of death took the
pen from his trembling fingers just as it
had done in the case of Othniel eager.
Many other instances might easily be cited
in which clerks of Nutmeg State towns
have grown gray putting down in white
and black the official annals of the towns.
It is not likely, however. that the memor-
able record of old Mr.. eager will ever be
displaced by greater one.-New York Sun.

For 10 years secretary of the National
Butter and Egg Association, and since 1882
secretary of the Chicago Produce Ex-
change, Col. Robert NJ. Littler has been in
constant demand as bureau of informa-
ton by correspondents who recognize
Chicago as the commercial center of the
country.
When such people as Col. Littler, State
Treasurer Colvin of New York, Modjeska
the actress, Ex- Minister to Austria John
M. Francis, and hosts of otner equally re-
sponsible persons volunteer testimonials
as to the wonderful virtue of Paine's celery
compound, no sick or suffering person can
with any show of reason hesitate to make
use of the great remedy that has made so
many people well. Col. Littler says:
al have used with great benefit several
bottles of Paine's celery compound and
have recommended it to my friends. 1t is
a wonderful spring remedy
The San Francisco call., 1896-03-21

Go to the busiest lawyer, editor or busi-
ness man of your acquaintance who has
taken Paine's celery compound. There are
hosts of such professional men in every
city who would hardly spare you mo-
ment's time for strictly business matters.
Ask one of them in his busiest hours
whether he can recommend Paine's celery
compound and ten chances to one he'll
say: "Sit down. No matter about my
being busy; always glad to praise Paine's
celery compound"
That is the feeling among people who
have been made strong and we'll by Paine's
celery compound. They never feel hap
pier than when they can persuade some
man or woman who is out of health to try
Paine's celery compound. Next to doing
good to ones self there is a delight in
doing good to others. There is no more
enthusiastic body of intelligent men and
women throughout the country than the
great army of those who have recovered
health by the use of Paine's celery COM

THE NEGRO QUESTION.
The negro problem will never be solved until
will enable every colored man to earn his own
living.-Rey. P. A. Hubert, Salisbury, N. C.
WOMEN.
Women are not angels. We may think so at

sion as we grow older.-Rey. Clarke Raboteau

SUPREME BEING.
False gods, idols, the sun and other objects
were worshiped by the ancient pagans but
the spirit showed that they believed in being
higher than in mortal man.-Rev. Father Ma
lone, Catholic, Scranton, Pa.
EVERYDAY HEROES.
Out from the tenements and factories and
shops come as noble examples of heroic self
sacrifice and service as ever came from palace

way under the test of Gods righteous measure
ments.-Rev. P. A. Baker, Methodist, CoIum-

CHANCE.
Chance is uncertainty; and any one who
undertakes any work, any transaction or any
performance without seeing his way clear,
trusting to chance, must n OF be surprised If he
meets with failure and disappointment espe-

superstition Rabbi L. Weiss Hebrew, Coluni-

X. Fuller, Baptist, Newburg, N. Y.
SUICIDE.
Suicide is not known among the sayages-it
is sin and blot upon civilization. In Ire
land it is almost unheard of, because it is a
Catholic country; because there the suicide is

FOREST FIRES.
A Policy Which, If Adopted, Might
Save the Trees.

"A Policy which,, IL Adopted, Might
Save the Trees.
1t is many years now since the senior
conductor of this magazine pointed out
that nothing could possibly save American
forests from serious conflagrations but
some well-directed effort to get rid of dead
brushwood, which everywhere abounds.
1t is pleasant to note that this seed
sown so long ago is now bearing
fruit. Secretary Morton has dis
tinctly stated to one of the forestry conven-
ventions that there is absolutely no other
hope of saving a forest from fire than the
removal of the dead brushwood-and this
idea is now being taken up in forest arti-
cles in newspapers and in speeches in con-
ventions. In the early part of the season
it was stated that the losses by forest
fires in New Jersey would certainly come
up to 5000, 600. Then it was stated that
if the State of New JERSEY were to appro-
pirate 5000, 900 for the employment of for
est wardens it would be a cheap thing 70
do. These forest wardens are to have moth
ing to do but sit around and wait for the
beginning of the fire, and then put it out.
If 100000 or only $4,000 were spent
in removing the dead brushwood, upon
which the fire feeds. the money
would be better spent. But the universal
that nothing can be done unless the State
has finger in the pie''-not only in
forestry, but in many other good efforts.
The true forestry policy should be
to encourage private enterprise. The
State might give a bonus for the best
cared for forest after a certain numb Der
of years, and it might relieve forest lands
from their share of taxation. In many
WAYS it could be made the interest OF
owners to plant forests and to care for
those which are worth caring for. To our
minds, the talk of the Forest Wardens,
and similar State expenditures, are all
labors at the wrong end. - Meehan's s

disastrously might be quickly and permG.
nently cured if sick persons could only be-
induced to take Paine's celery compound.
If women. burdened beyond their strength
with household cares, would only tax
Paines celery compound when they feel
that dispirited, enervated condition COM
ing on they would escape the martyrdom
of backache, headache, disordered liver
and heart trouble.
Instead of being thin, nervous and un-
happy they would experience the Joy of
perfect health, sound digestion and quiet
nerves.
Paine's celery compound is Just the rem
edy needed by women who are in continual
ill health and spirits, seemingly well Ole
day and almost sick abed the next. Their
trouble lies plainly in the want of good
rich blood, and plenty of it, and in the
consequent famished state of their nerves.
Paine's celery compound should be taken
without delay. 1t will restore the health
and stop every tendency toward debili-
tated condition.

THE HEALTHY WOMAN.

Aside from form or features she
has an attractiveness all her own.
The bloom on her cheek, the elias
ITCHY in her step, the ring of her
voice, her enjoyment of life-all
these are magnets which draw others
to her side. Wonderful and valu-
able as it is, health is not so difficult
a thing to obtain us some discour-
aged cnes think. Most of the trou-
bles of women arise from impure
blood, impaired nutrition and low
vitality. Modern science furnishes
the most successful of remedies for
this condition-namely, WampoIe's
Preparation. 1t contains the flesh
building and nourishing properties
of Cod Liver Oil without its aau-
SeouS taste and smell the Hypophos-
phites and the Extracts of Malt and
Wild Cherry Bark. Taken before
meals it improves the appetite,
makes fat, restores vitality, enriches
the blood and cures those weak
nesses peculiar to the sex, which
are the seat of their troubles. 1t is
a blessing to tired wives, nursing
mothers and girls growing into
womanhood.
Vt colors the pale faces and rounds out
the hollow chests. In a word IL nourishes
