ing Carriage on Strip
Of State Road.

Holden May 19.-Lewis Ciriack, SUI
perintendent of the Eagleville mills,
ana A. C. Chase, former overseer of
the Jefferson mills, figured in sensa-
tional smashup here last night. Mr.
Ciriack and NJ Chase were driving to
Worcester in a light buggy and with
fast horse. They were striking a fast
clip on the state road, and just as they
passed the bridge over the Fitchburg
railroad q front wheel became de-
tached, spilling the occupants upon the
ground
The horse ran wildly up Main street,
and when it reached the residence of
G. S. Holden it turned and ran across
the lawn beside the house. 1t left
the badly demolished buggy upon the
lawn, and then ran around the house,
where it was stopped by high wire
fence.
Mr. Ciriack was badly bruised about
the head, but the injuries of Mr.. Chase
We're of a more serious character. His
back was injured, and his left wrist
badly sprained. He was attended by
DR.. C. w. Stickney and was then car
ried to Worcester by Mr., Ciriack. The
horse has a long and deep cut on one
of his hind legs, which may cause per-
manent injury, and the buggy has both
shafts, dasher and cross-b broken.
Taken all together, it is one of the
most general mixups seen in town for
some time.

In Miss Maude King, the well known

She says:
"Pe-ru-na is the most valuable of the
many remedies I have tried for the
chronic coughs and throat and nasal
irritations to which we of stage are
subject. If taken as soon as one is
aware of catching cold 1t is sure TO break
up the cold Immediately. Pe-ru-na to
my mind is especially adapted to women,
and I recommend it to them heartily"

CATARRH PERMANENTLY CURED
By a Short Course Of Pe-ru-na During
the Spring Months.

Many people have catarrh who do not
like to admit it. The reason is they
have the word catarrh associated in
their minds with disgusting symptoms.
A majority of people think that catarrh
is a disease that produces discharges
from the head, bad breath, hawking,
splitting, and many similar untidy annoy
ances. Unfortunately all this is too true
in some cases of chronic catarrh, but in
the greater number of cases no such
symptoms appear at all.
The proper thing to 90 is to commences
and continue the proper treatment for

cording to directions, without any in.
terruption, until the symptoms disap-
pear. Insist on having Pe-ru-na. There
are no remedies for catarrh that are
"just as good"
Pe-ru-na is the only scientific, sys-
temic catarrh remedy yet devised. No
catarrhal subject should fail to take
course of treatment with Fortuna this
spring. Write DR.. Hartman, Columbus,
Ohio, for a free book on catarrh.

OBS or elders and the deacons; ana

President r. l.. Kinney of South
Hero. of the Vermont Horticultural
society, then delivered the annual ad-
dress. He spoke OF The favorable
prospects for apple growers in Ver-
mont. Our fruit is in great demand
and brings much higher prices than
western fruit. While apples from the
Grand Isle orchards are selling for So
and s4 in New York, western fruit
brings only 50 and $3.50 for the same
grades.
Leigh Hunt of Middlebury told OF
the proper way to develop home
market. The market depends prncl-
pallv on the man. He must be honest'
give GOOD measure, have one price fol
everybody, and must be neat. More
depends upon the man than upon th'
place or quality of the goods.
The attendance at the Afternoon
meeting was considerably improved
though none too large. The expected
attendance from Grand Isle Count,
did not materialize. The question
box was opened and developed mucl
