Men who go out fishing in an open boat
In the midst of binding storm and enjoy
it, must be strong and healthy and are
pretty sure to live to ripe old age. Un-
fortunately, the rush and hurry of modern
business life will not permit the average
man to take frequent outdoor exercise.
In lieu of life spent partly in the woods
and on the water, a man must find some
kind of medicine to tone UP and invigorate
him and incite the vital organs of his body
to the faithful performance of their normal
functions. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery is the only thoroughly effective
medicine for this purpose. Its principal
action is upon the organs that feed the
blood, the stomach, the large intestines and
the liver 1t facilitates the flow of the d.
gestive juices in the stomach and the
production of healthy chyle in large guam
titles in the large intestines. 1t invigorates
the liver and purifes and enriches the
blood. When the blood is rich and pure
the old, inert tissues throughout the body
are torn down and replaced by new and
healthy flesh tissues and nerve hbers. If a
mans blood is filed with the rich, pure
elements of health, he can get along with a
scanty amount of exercise. Disease germs
can gain no foothold in his system.

ways lived till she married Mr.. Cobb in

been a member of the Congregational
church at the Centre, and was connected
with the w. c. 7. u. since its organiza-
ton there. She was a very consistent
Christian and estimable woman, and
will be greatly missed from the circles in
which she has so long moved.
Mrs Cobb is the last but one of her
fathers family to pass away, brother,
Slas Bartlett, OF Providence, r. l., alone
surviving her. She was 70 years old.
The funeral was held from the home yes

Automobile Road for Vermont.

The Brattleboro correspondent of the
Sunday Republican recently had the fol-
lowing article which will be read with
interest:
A New York dispatch reports scheme
|for building an automobile road through
the state, running up the west side and
IdoWn the east, with cross state intersec-
|tlons touching the principal summer re-
sorts 1t is even proposed to ask the
legislature to appropriate considerable
sum toward the building of the road.
should the scheme of the alleged pro-
linoters take shape, it is promised that
the farming sections will see return, to
an extent, to the good old days of half
century ago, when our principal high
ways were the avenues of trade and
travel between the then rapidly-growing
west and the principal cities of New Eng.
land. One OF these, the celebrated Bos-
Ton and Albany stage road, running
prom Bennington north, winding over
the Green Mountains at Peru, thence
8GoWn through Londonderry and on to
bellows Falls, Keene and Boston, passes
through the most beautiful portion of
New England, which will some day be-
GONE famous the world over for its
natural attractions. Over this road, be-
lore the days of the "iron horse" scores
OF our and six-horse truck teams, laden
With freight, and coaches overcrowded
with travellers, passed daily. Along the

rest and recreation and opportunities to

Henry Clay Ide.

Not mine to speak, when Honor proudly
came
And placed a pregnant septre in thy hand +;
Albeit deemed thee worthy to command.
1t were presumption, had linked thy name
With lines that neer shall touch the lips of
fame,
While famous statesmen praised thee
through the land.
But when beside the open grave you stand,
My heart in speaking lifts no naughty claim.
We may not know: and yet methinks, his
soul,
Released from bondage, shall abide with
thee,
Now faring forth to make people free
But those fond eyes beeeld thee clasp goal
Vouchsafed to few and thou wit wear thy
stole,
Thrice glad that he, thy sire, was spared
to see!

Family Trip That Cured a Kansa,
Man of Serious Lung Di.ease

E. E. Farnsworth is living example of
what man in the last stage of consumption
can do to save his own life, and at the same
time ne is walking advertisement says the
Ell Paso Herald, of the beneficial effects of
the rare air of the Western plains. He is
now in Ri Paso with his family, after having
come Ella miles across the country in a
wagon.
1--WE left Winfield, Kan," said Mr.. Farms
worth, ION the 29th day of last March, when
| was so weak that l could not throw the
harness on the horses. We came on to the
West in our wagon, living in it. sleeping
in 1t at night, and travelling during the day.
When we came to an agreeable place we
would stop for few days, and then wo
would resume the journey with the horses
refreshed. Most OF the summer we spent in
the mountains, hunting and fishing, and
from there we went to Utah. and came down
through Central New Mexico to Ell Paso.
We have the same horses with which we
started, and our wagon is in good shape.
We have had many experiences, but nothing
mas resulted seriously for us, and the net
result Is that we are here in good shape and
l have practically regained my health
The wagon in which the trip was made Is
marvel OF ingenious, arrangement. It Is
the size Of an ordinary farm wagon. The
front seat is arranged so that 1t can be
thrown back on hinges. disclosing a we'll
arranged clothes chest. The remainder of
the wagon body is enclosed in frame about
six feet high, projecting over the sides and
covered with painted canvas. BY various in
genious arrangements the interior is SO
fitted up as to hold the beds for the party
tables and chairs, and ,sheet-metal stove
The bed can be folded back against the wall;
the stove can hardly be noticed because OF
the way it is fixed in the side Of the wagon,
and the table, when not in use, can be
folded down along the side. Lockers under
and on the side Of the wagon provide places
for storing food, tools, ropes and the like.
The average time made on the trip has been
% miles a day Of travel.
From here the party will go up the Tua-
rosa, and then across to Roswell in the Pc
cos valley. returning to their home in Kan
sas in April, after having consumed about a
year on the trip.
The method is certainly a sensible and,
as 1t has proved, an effective one for re-
gaining health, and Mr.. Farnsworth returns
to his home practically Well, whereas there
would probably be a lot OF people slowly
behind him IL he had remained in Kansas
during the winter.
The party has gathered numerous ore
specimens, and have sent many pounds of
them home. One fine specimen Of copper
ore was found near Las Cruces. and this
they still have with them. The total cost
Of the trip 80 far for the three has been only
about 81 200.

often how man raised as he had been, in

dences OF bad taste in her was one Of her
most earnest wishes But she had set her
hand to this particular pillow. and she had
no intention of turning back. He came in
cheerfully, and saw the monstrosities at
hrst glance. He stopped involuntarily, as
II water had been dashed in his face; then,
recovering himself, sat down and opened the
conversation. Inez said no word about the
wax studies. She was trife pale and ner-
