he drove instead of his own team horses

ate some of the poisoned apples but their
effect was not, thanks to proper treatment,

is generally charged to one man, who, if he

Common
Sense
Talk with
Women

II a person is i'll and needs a medi-
cine is il not wise TO get one that has
stood the test of time and has hun
dreds of thousands of cures to its
credit
A great many women who are i'll try
everything they hear of in the way of
medicine, and this experimenting with
unknown drugs is constant menace
TO their already impaired health.
This seems to us very unwise, for
there are remedies which are no eX-
perimentS and have been known years
and years TO be doing only good.
Take for instance Lydia +. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound; for thirty
wears its record has been one un-
broken chain of success. No medicine
for female ills the world has ever
known has such record for cures
1t seems so strange that some people
will take medicines about which they
really know nothing, some of which
might be, and are, really harmful
while on the other hand it is easily
proved that over one million women
have been restored TO health by Lydia
L. Pinlfham's Vegetable Compound.
We have published in the news
papers of the United States more
genuine testimonial letters than have
ever been published in the interest of
any other medicine.
All this should, and does, produce a
spirit of confidence in the hearts of
women which is difficult TO dislodge.
and when they are asked to take some
thing else they say, " No. we want
Lydia h. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, which has been tried. and
never found wanting. whose reliability
is established far beyond the expert
mental stage"
We have thousands of letters like the
following addressed to Mrs. Pink ham,

NEW FAME.
Death of Mrs. Drury Falrbank.

Mrs. w. b. Park received on Tuesday a
letter from Miss Alice Parker, who was
here last summer, announcing the death of
her aunt, Mrs. Jessie Farbank, in Nashua,
n. N, at the home of her nephew, Charles
Parker.
Mrs. Farbank was the widow of the late
Drury Fairbank of this place, native of
Wardsboro, who died last year at the age
of about so. Mr.. and Mrs. Fairbank came
to this town - or 20 years ago from Bos-
ton or vicinity, lived several years upon the
l.. G. Bills farm and spent their last ten
years in this village Mrs. Fairbank re-
moved to Nashua, N. H., where she had
many old friends who knew her as Mrs.
George Greenwood. She was of delicate
constitution and grew more enfeebled dur
ing her husbands long and painful illness,
but was comfortably well for her, when
she was seized with paralysis ten days age
and lived only four days.
The surviving members of her family are
brother, Edward Parker, and sister, Mrs.
Nichols of Boston. Frank Fairbank, son
of Mr.. Fairbank, and well known here for
devoted attention to his father, is, with his
wife, in California.

THE PUTNEY COLUMN.

Milo whItney's New.Breed OF Hens.
Golden eggs are no longer a rarity.
Neither are blue, green and red eggs or
eggs of the various other hues to be found
in the rainbow. Eggs Of these colors may
be seen in the show window of A. M.
Corser's store where there is also the infor-
nation that they were laid by Milo Whit
ney's new breed of hens. just what the
pedigree of these hens are Mr.. Whitney
doesn't know, but he does know that upon
inspecting them closely soon after he
bought them and put them in a pen at the
Robertson paper mill he discovered traces
of peculiarly colored feathers on their
heads and wings. The peculiar color of
each hen corresponds to the color of the
egg which that hen lays, and perhaps it is
unnecessary to state that Mr.. Whitney
values most highly the one which lays the
golden eggs. A strange coincidence was
the appearance under the skin of Frank
Robertson's hands of a pigment which
gave the same effect as would be produced
by putting his hands into mittens filled
with indelible ink such as is used in the
manufacture of certain styles of paper
