Mrs. Brewer Dead.

Mrs. David j. Brewer, wife of As
sociate Justice Brewer Of the supreme
court of the United States, died at
her home in Washington last Sunday
night. She had been in poor health
for some years but was not an invalid.
Some weeks ago her physicians decid-
ed that an operation was necessary. 1t
was apparently successful, but on FRI
day a relapse occurred.
Mrs. Brewer was formerly Miss
Landon, a cousin of Principal S. w.
Landon of Burlington. For the past
few years Justice and Mrs. Brewer
have spent their summers at Thomp-
sons Point ON Lake Champlain.

Vermont Agricultural Society.

The annual meeting of Vermont
Agricultural society was held at
White River Junction last week. Ii
was voted to hold the state fair at
White River Junction on August 80
and 81 and September and 2.
1t was decided to build half mile
track at an estimated cost of $500.
The society appropriated $3.50 toward
this object, and the rest of the money
will be raised at White River juno
ton. There is a kite track on the
White River Junction grounds and
this will be maintained.
The indications are that the me-
chanical exhibit will be larger than
last year.

nervous prostration among women is
entirely within the control of every
person who will take pains to correct
the bad habit the brain has fallen in
70. Prof. Edward L. Phelps, M. D.,
LII. ID, of the Dartmouth medical
school, in announcing his wonderful
discovery OF Paine's celery compound
at meeting of the Dartmouth medi-
cal faculty, showed bow closely he
had studied, in all their bearings up
on health, such disorders us sleepless-
ness, blood impurity and the nervous
diseases that are likely to follow such
daily poisoning of the system.
Paine's celery compound by its pro-
nounced nourishing power enables the
nerves to get back their control over
the circulation so that the blood sup
ply becomes greatest where ii is most
needed, as in the stomach after eat
ing, and least where its presence can
only do harm, as in the brain when
sleep is needful.
The nerves, when they are strong
and properly nourished, limit the
flow OF blood to the head and draw
off the excess from the brain, thus en-
surfing refreshing sleep. Persons who
wake up tired, drowsy and ambition
less, or cannot sleep whole night
through are suffering from disordered
nerves Paine's celery compound
Gains and feeds the nerves even to
their tiniest branchings, and they in
their turn are enabled TO equalize the
blood supply over the body, thus spar
ing the heart, preventing COMPOSITIONS
and rushes OF blood to the head, dizzi-
ness, paralysis, pain over the heart,
and those headaches that seem to
come and go without any good rea-
son, and are SO inexplicable to hosts
OF men and women.

The companies which will receive
them are A, c. b, f, F, &c, II, |

The old guns now in use will be
cleaned and stored away in the
armories. Some OF them, however,
are of little use and will be sent back
to Springfield. The new rifles are
single barrel Springfield Of the very
latest pattern. They are similar to
the guns in use in the best equipped
state militias. They are different
from the guns employed by the reg
ulars, which are OF the Krag-Jorgen-

Weekly Crop Report.

The weather bureau in its summary Of
crop conditions for the week ended August
2nd says.
Abundant rains during the week have
relieved the drought which threatened the
States of the central valleys at the close
continues in Minnesota, over the northern
portions Of the lake region and New Eng
land, in the western portions OF Nebraska
and Kansas and in eastern Oklahoma.
The week was hot and dry generally
throughout the Rocky mountains and Pa
citc coast regions, while excessive rains
proved injurious, more particularly to cot
ton. in the Central and East Gulf and
South Atlantic States.
Upon the whole the week has been ia
vorablc for corn. The crop generally has
made excellent progress. The crop is suf-
fering from drought, and has been injured
by hot winds in Kansas and Oklahoma.
In Iowa, where at the close of the pref
Gus week corn was threatened with seri-
Gus in jury, it is much improved and gives
promise of an average yield. In Missouri
it is doing finely and much of the early
planted in the southern sections is now
safe. A good corn crop is also assured in
Southern Illinois, but much has been per-
manently in ured in the central portions
of the State, and the crop is suffering for
rain in the northern counties. In Indiana,
Ohio, Kentucky and Tennessee and gen
orally throughout the Middle and South
Atlantic States the outlook for corn is de-
cidcdly improved.
Tobacco has been greatly improved in
the principal tobacco States In Tcnncs-
see, however the crop has sustained in
