Life to the most favored is not always
full of sunshine, but to the average
American girl or woman who is obliged
to work for her living, and, pc Aaps
to help others at home. life is often a
heavy drag in consequence of illness.
Women who work, especially those
who are constantly on their feet, are
peculiarly liable to the development
of organic troubles. and should par
ticularly heed the first manifestations,
such as backache. pains in the lower
limbs and lower part of the stomach,

RAILROAD EXTENSION.

DR.. Webb Buys the Lebanon Springs Road
for the Rutland.
The announcement is made that the
Chatham and Lebanon Valley Railroad,
formerly the Lebanon Springs. has been
purchased by DR.. w. S. Webb. managing
director of the Rutland system.
The present road has been running for
about two years having been purchased
at sale ordered by the United States
court.
1t was rumored that the Rutland
would soon have it. The road extends
from Bennington to Chatham, n. Y. a
distance of 81 miles. At the latter place
it makes direct connections with the
Boston & Albany and the Harlem divis-
ion of Central e Hudson River. At
Petersburg Junction 1t connects with the
FItchburg.
With the exception of the first eight
miles from Bennington, which has a
heavy grade out, the road runs through
a level and productive country. By
building line tirect to Hoosick from
North Bennington, some six miles, all
the grades and curves would be done
away with and some eight miles of direct
travel saved. Surveys for this branch
have already been made and it Is under
stood that the extension can easily be
built. With the purchase of this road
the Rutland system will have direct COM
munication with all points from Ben
Dington which it does not now have, as
a FIVE mile stretch is operated by the
Boston & Maine and tbs friction between
the two companies is getting more pro-
nounced every day. Bennington people
think that it means better railroad facili-
ties for that session.

They have recently received very ad-
vantageons offer from citizens of the
town Of Waldoboro. Wsldoboro has a
fine, large four-story building, with am.
pie steam power that is offered practi-
cally rent and taxes free, with a further
proposition that really amounts to a
gift of the building few years hence.
1t is certainly very attractive offer,
but the members of the Marston Com

We are informed the erection of a

the company for their dying and finish

II this could be brought about, it would

the road but the town has not built it
and now ask the commissioners to dis
