That more don't try for brains.
Nv nc,inn Is that heart an head

That when the head Is made more wise
The heart should he more warm

Sufferers from this horrible rnslady
nearly always inherit it not necessarily
from the parents. but may be from some
remote ancestor, for Cancer often runs
through several generations. This deadly
poison may lay dormant in the blood for
years, or until you reach middle life, then
the first little sore or ulcer makes its ap-
pearance or a swollen gland in the
breast, or some other part of the body,
gives the first warning.
To cure Cancer thoroughly and perrna.
nently all the poisonous virus must be
eliminated from the blood--every vestage
of it driven out This S. S. S. does. and
is the only medicine that can reach deep
seated, obstinate blood troubles like this
When all the poison has been forced out
of the system the Cancer heals, and the
disease never returns.
Cancer begins often in small way. as the
following letter from Mrs. Shirer shows :
A small pisrplc came my Jaw q bout an inch
below the ear on the left side OF my face. II gav

Editor Frank Howe, of the Times
had most sensible editorial in hi.
paper yesterday which THE TELEGRA,
can most heartily endorse. lie says
Barre was yesterday treated tc
something new in political warfare ir
the shape OF little leallet advising
the voters of the city to vote for one
OF the candidates for city representa-.
tive because he is not a foreigner and
implying the mandate not to vote fol
the other leading candidate because
he is foreign born, in other words, be.
cause he is citizen of Barre and of
Vermont and of the United States of
America because he wanted to be,
and not because he could not help it
like those who are native born.
AS to the political aspects of the
case nothing need be said. The vot-
ers of Barre who are supporting Mr..
Mackay will be. the more earnestly
for him because of the enemy or enenl-
les he appears to have made and
the friends and supporters Of Mr.. Nc
Whortcr born and foreign born will
not be turned from him because one
fool has brought before the pubic the
fruits of his folly.
AS to the attempt to stir up strife
between the American born people of
Barre and those who first saw the
light on other shores much might be
said but little nee be. One glance at
Barre past and present should suffice.
For hundred years Barre was Ver-
mont country town with no standing
and no business to distinguish it from
any other strictly agricultural COM
munity in New England.
In all that time granite was quar-
ried on Milestone hill and cut in Barre.
Did the business ever grow into ma
tional Importance? Mt until the
"foreignerS' came to Barre and de-
veloped it. Look at those who make
Barre today, the men who employ la
borers here and without whose pres
ence the town would be no more
of an Industrial center than is Chelsea.
Read over the list of names: Barclay,
Mackie, Mcdonald, Mackay, Sullivan,
Novelli, Macchi, Imlah, Emslie, Mari,
Mcleod, Bianchi, Bernasconi, Adie.
Cortie, Gordon, Miles, Forsyth, Ag-
ostines, Burke, Clarihew, Buchan, Nc
Leay, Campbell, Smith, Mortimer,
Mutch -- but why enumeratc more
though the list is of indefinite length.
These are the men who have put
the name and fame of Barre and
Barre granite before all the world,
who have made Barre the biggest
and busiest town in the whole east
ern part of Vermont, and they are all
