From the New York Tribune
The investigations of Nenki have led him
to conclude that the time will come when
it will be possible to remove all micro-or-
ganisms from food. AS regards the ques-
ton whether their action is necessary for
the normal process of digestion, he presents
reasons for believing that IT is not. this
conclusion being based on the following
grounds: The acid of the stomach destroys
the majority Of the micro-organisms. only
a small number escaping this fatS and get
ting with the food into the intestinal tract.
In the small intestines their action is con-
fined to the decomposition of the carbohy-
Clinic acids. alcohol. etc. 1t Is only in the
large intestine that the decomposition of
albumins and the formation of aromatic
bodies. and of the different acids under
their influence, take place.

 LILLIAN CRIPPEN, Box77, St. Andrews Bay, Fla, says:-'' Before taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, I had suffered many years with kidney trouble.

Mir. John Peterson, of Patoutville, La. was very agreeably surprised not long ago. For eighteen months he had been troubled with dysentery, and had tried three of the best doctors in New Orleans, besides half dozen or more patent medicines, but received very little relief. Chamber lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrh9a Rem- edy, having been recommended to him, he gave it trial, and, to his great sur prise, three doses of that remedy effected q permanent cure. MT. Wm. McNama, well-known merchant of the same place, is well acquainted with MT. Peterson, and attests to the truth of this state ment. This remedy is for sale by E. K. Taft, Stafford Springs, and G L. Phillips, South CoYAntrY

 Rev N. A. Bell, the new minister of the Congregational church in the village, will preach at that church next Sunday, and will supply the pulpit until his ordi- nation, which will take place some time in August.
 The selectnen have warned town meeting for next Monday to vote on grading and altering the road in this vil- lage near the residents of G. M. Ives, and s. Newton, also near the Sidney F. Need ham place south of the Hollow. No doubt the road in this village could be improved, and an appropriation to be judlciously ex- pended by the selectmen, would be a good move for the town. The best course, un- doubtedly, would be to fill in at the base of the hill, and at the same time raise the road running south from the foot of the hill about two feet, making an easier grade on that road, and lifting 1t out of the mud. Good residences are being put up on the south road, and 1t is getting to be an important street, aside from the new road about being made to lead from it.
 Daniel Usher, of North Coventry, died very suddenly at his residence, on the morning of the 21 inst. He awoke about midnight, complained of feeling i'll, and requested his wife to hand him glass of water from table by the bedside. In reaching over her husband for the water Mrs. Usher accidently touched his fore head, and noticed that 1t was very cd and moist. She hastily arose, Mghte candle, and prepared to investigate symptoms; but he became .4~rgs-As alarming worse and died within fffs minutes of the first attack. It is sin lar circumstance that an only daughter MT. Usher, Mrs. Rosanna Fitch, died inJ Rockville about two hours earlier than himself

The navy's dead will not be forgotten on Memorial day. In the numerous ports all over the world where officers and men have found their final resting places memo rial services will be observed by the com panies of any United States man-of-war that may be in the harbors. If they are unfortunately distant from points where the graves of the navy's dead are located, then the diplomatic and consular repre- sentatives of this government will proba- ply place flowers on the tombs to show that the government of the United States remembers its servants

33 1-3 Per Cent. Below
 the Usual.

There is no trash in this sale-not a garment of it-- never kept trash, and never will. Two causes lead up to this sale, and give you these great bargains at this time, viz:
 First: We have made an extraordinary purchase of fine goods from one of the best underwear manufacturers, by which we tide him over a rather critical period in his affairs, and thus become the owner of as fine a stock of muslin underwear as was ever held at prices ONE-THIRD BELOW the usual market values.
 Second: Our decision. to merge with the above goods our great stock of fine muslin underwear just gathered here for our great semi-annual sale, which is held every year, and was to begin the latter part of next month. These goods were made to our order, and were bought exceptionally low.
 Look up your musliniunder- wear wants for the next six months at least, and come to this sale prepared to fill them. Itis remarkable opportunity.

It seems to be agreed that Mr. Glad stone had cancerous growth, in the throat. His marvellous store of vital force amazed his medical attendants the last day of his life.
