To one who enjoys rare old publications,

being sermon preached at Brattleboro July

on the occasion of the burial of Pardon Tay-

drowned the day before in the Connecticut
river. A local physician, who by the way
has wealth of interesting old documents,

other publication is entitled "New England

liot, son of Samuel Elliot, for whom Elliot
street was named. This publication had a
wide influence in calling attention to the
manner of conducting poor-houses at that
time, and was the means of radical reforma-

Rode on beers Back.

Napoleon Lacrosse of Somerset, tells an
interesting story about an episode that he
participated IN a fewdays ago and in which he
received pjuries that caused him to take
short rest. Lacrosse was chopping in the
woods. Becoming thirsty he started for a
spring to get drink of water. While on his
way there he saw deer tracks. Procuring a
drink he started to return, and saw short
distance ahead of him large buck. He had
no weapon with him, so he stopped and
leaned against tree.
The buck approached, shifting the air. The
animal came to within foot of him,
and, thinking that he was going to attack
linn, Lacrosse, who is an active young fell
low, says he made spring and landed on
the back of the buck. He twisted his legs
around the body of the animal as far as he
could and tried to seize hold of his horns.
This he was not able to do, and the deer,
with his head down, started for the brush.
Lacrosse says that of all the dancing and
rearing he never saw anything like it before.
He called to some other choppers that were
some distance away, telling them that he had
deer and to come and help him.
The deer took him over fallen trees and for
quite distance, trying to get rid of his rider
at last he came to large birch, and the deer
| made leap that his rider said must have
been four or five feet high. Lacrosse fell to
the ground and his back was considerably
| sprained. The deer made his escape into the
forest.

Better than veterlnary's Prescription.

A gentleman doing business in Boston, who
has been stopping at the beach this summer,
was informed by his coachman { short time
ago that his carriage horse was lame. He
called in successful veterinary surgeon who
has doctored his horse satisfactorily for years.
After examining the horse the veterinary
sent bottle of medicine, which was applied
with apparently little benefit. When the
medicine was all used the owner wrote the
veterinary to send another bottle OF the same
remedy.
There was some delay by the veterinary in
complying with the owners request and the
coachman, who had seen Tuttle's Elixir used
with excellent success, got the consent of the
owner to let him try bottle Of that. He did
so and before the first bottle was used, the
horse showed such marked improvement that
Eur Their services of the veterinary surgeon
were dispensed with.
We have used Tuttle's Elixir in our stable
with the most satisfactory results. It is q
powerful medicine and, like all other active
remedies, must be applied with Judgment

Incorporation of the c. v. Road.

The purchase of the Rutland railroad was
but the forerunner of other important rail-
road moves in this state as is evident by the
fact that the varied railroad interests of Verz
mont are to be combined to comprise new
company. The capital stock of So, 900 900
and $l20O0,000 of mortgage bonds will be
authorized by the bill introduced in the
house by Representative Wall of Randolph,
which is to incorporate the Central Vermont
Railway company.
The corporators named in the bill are +. G.
Smith, D. D. Randlett, G. M. Hays, Charles
Percy, w. Seward Webb, j G. Mccullough,
Ezra H. Parker and Samuel Kilner.
While foreign corporations and individuals
are permitted to hold stock in the new COM
pany, and while it will therefore be possible
for the Grand Trunk to acquire majority of
the stock, that corporation if it desires can
not dire city control the management of the
road, as the bill requires that the ma ority of
the directors shall be citizens and residents
of the state of Vermont.

An Outing that is Exciting and
Healthful.

That Maine is the greatest paradise for
those of sporting inclination was long since
granted, but to the average New Highlander
the Sportsman's Show in Boston last spring
was an eye-opener. Hundreds who visited
this marvellous exhibition declared that thus
fall they should participate in this, the most
fascinating sport; and that the promises are
being made good is already evidenced by the
great travel toward the Name hunting
