The people in the pretty village of
Leeds Centre, Me-, have watched with
some interest the restoration TO com

of the postmaster. So general were the
comments on this interesting case that
the writer who visited Mrs. Francis ana

papers nowadays that people do not pay

she had a new lease of happy life given
to her.

to undertake only the lightest household
work. and even then l could perform 1t
only by slow and careful movements.
During all these sorry months and
years was under the care of this doc
tor and that but their medicines helped
me only systematically, ana then L zen
into relapses more prostrating than
ever.
"In the night used to be awakened
by the most excruciating pains in my
heart and side and was obliged to use
pellets of powerful medicine that the
doctor gave me for relief in SUCH at
lacks. At last my condition became so
grave that l went out only infrequent-

to sort of fall and slide over the steps
