of purity. Some samples were seriously
off color. This is a bad showing and
calculated to make the GARNER scratch
his head and think.
The worst feature of the case is that
what is not clover seed is apt to be large

which the farmer has to fight are bought
at the store in the package with the
clover seed, and cost him Sc buSheL
There may be thousands of weed seeds
in every pound. One sample sold IN
Vermont last year contained the enor-
nous number of 59,310 weed seeds to
every pound of clover seed! The weeds
most commonly purchased in this way
are green fox-tail, pigweed, red stem
plantain, smartweed, English plantaln,
sheep sorrel, and curled dock.
The only way to be sure of getting
good clover seed is to examine it with
a magnifying glass. One can see most
of the weed seeds with small hand lens.

things are examined free, as far as pos

SMALLPOX at Dewey's Mills.

Smallpox is prevailing at Dewey's
Mills, a small hamlet about nine miles
from White River junction on the Wood
stock railroad.
The cases, seven in number, were OF
light character, and were at first re-
ported as chicken-pox or some Other
form of eruptive disease, and were not
at tirst reported to the health officers as
smallpox if they were reported at all
One of the victims stoutly asserted that
all that troubled him was an attack OF
the SCuban itch.n
However, the board of health, after
consultation with DR.. Holton of Brattle.
boro, chairman of the state board, decid
ed that the disease is smallpox, AND
quarantined the boarding house in which
the cases had occurred.
1t is said that the disease originated
with man from Manchester, N. H., who
communicated it to others. There is
but little fear entertained of it's spread
ing to any great extent as the people OF
the town are fairly well protected by
vaccination

held from the public. Mrs. Rouse's honest
opinion of this great remedy cannot be
mistaken by any one who reads her letter.
Green Bay, Wis,
March 3, 1900.
Wells, Richardson & Co.
Gentlemen:-For the past ten years I
have been troubled with neuralgia of the
stomach and dizziness in the head. l have
doctored with many doctors, but found no
relief until friend of mine recommended
to me your Paine's celery compound, and l
found it a great cure for my sickness.
Yours very truly,
Mrs. Geo. E. Rouse.
Public opinion in the large cities through
out the country shows the reliance that
hard-worked, often overworked, men and
women have come to place upon Paine's
celery compound
Nothing demoralizes the health sooner
or more completely than even the occa-
sional loss of sleep. Paine's celery COM
pound gets the brain out of this dangerous
habit of sleepIessness. 1t feeds the nerv-
Gus tissues all over the body, and does not
let the nutrition of these delicate parts get
low enough to permit of insomnia One of
the earliest evidences of the final success
of this great nerve and brain invigorator
in curing neuralgia, debility rheumatism
headaches and indigestion due to insuffi-
cient nerve force, is the joyous feeling of
returning strength of mind and body,
cheerfulness and "well being" that takes
the place of the old, tired, languid, morbid,
melancholy condition.
If you are played out" to use a forcible
street phrase, can't digest, can't sleep, can't
work, and have lost courage, it is your
nervous system that is played OUT Try
Paine's celery compound and see how soon
you forget you ever had nerves that could
possibly ache. The dismal failures of other
remedies must not prevent one from taking
the remedy that is always successful.
Paine's celery compound has driven sick
ness from thousands of homes.
Bellows Falls times. [volume] (Bellows Falls, Vt.) 1856-1965, 1901-02-21

1t can be truthfulIy said of no other rem
edy in the world what is so often said of
Paine's celery compound, that in no single
instance has it failed to benefit, and bene-
fit permanently-and there's the point that
no sufferer should lose sight Of
The whole stock-in-trade of the ordinary,
notwithstanding, but wholly irresponsi-
BILE remedies is to bring about the appear
ance of health to cover up symptoms and
to stave off ibreak-downs, making the per
manent cure all the more difficult.
Other remedies, because they can effect
no lasting cure do harm.
The same words that fairly and accu-
rately describe Paines celery compound,
remedy that every day proves it's worth,
are boldly used to exploit connections that
can by no possibility do anything but
harm. More brains and ingenuity is ex-
pended on the label and wrapper than on
what is put into the bottles. Persons who
try this remedy and that, in the foolish
hope that they may hit on the right one by
chance, and at any rate it can do them no
harm, should know that they are doing
their system incalculable mischief and put
ting off the day of complete recovery by
such experimenting.
Paine's celery compound must not be
judged by the standard of any of these
superficial medicines. 1t is agreat, respon-
sible, scientific discovery, singularly I'M
like any remedial agent that ever aimed to
effect similar purpose-to make people
well. 1t is not an ordinary remedy. The
results from its use have been so extraor-
binary and so gratifying that busy men
and women have gone out of their way to
send letters of thanks and to allow their
names to vouch for every statement they
have made in praise of it.
The following acknowledgment from
Mrs. George F. Rouse of Green Bay,
Wis, of the surprising benefit she has
received from the use of Paine's celery
compound is too valuable to be with

How many women of to-day could
undertake wifehood under such condi-
tionsl Few indeed. Not because the
modern American woman lacks cour-
age, but because she lacks as a rule the
physical health which is the indispensa-
BILE qualification for life such as was
lived by the women of the past
That is why good woman may be a
bad wife. Virtue and goodness are ex-

house and bear children demands above

with prison. 1t 10 prison-like in the
monotonous regularity of daily duties !;
prison-like in the absence of all pleasure

And the reason IS to be found in
womanly ill-health. Few women realize
how intimately the general health is re-

womanly organs. A woman may suffer
with heart "trouble," disorders OF kid

Many people in this part of the state

According to Raoul Pictet, the IA
nous Swiss inventor, his latest dis
cOvery in regard to the manufacture of
oxygen gas will revolutionize the
metal trades of this country, and, in
deed, will have an important influence
on most of our industries. Briefly the
invention consists of taking oxygen
out of the atmospheric air by phys
ical means, and not by chemical
process as at present. The inventor
claims that by this process the cost of
oxygen will be very much less than
farthing per cubic foot, which, COM
pared with present prices, is in the pro-
portion of farthings to shillings. The
process will be applied to metallurgy,
chemistry. lighting, and public health
For lighting purposes the oxygen will
be mixed with water gas, and, it is
said. will give much better light at q
much lower price. 1t has great heat
ing properties and can be used for
smelling all ore containing gold and
other refractory ores. The process, it
is said, will be much cheaper than any
present one for sanitary purposes. The
oxygen can be put into large rooms,
schools, theaters, and so forth, and by
this means the air will be rendered
