Barre Patronizing to ST. Johnsbury
From the Barre Timesl

In behalf of Barre the Times ex-
tends to st. Johnsbury its most sim
cere sympathy in this hour of the scab
towns disgrace and deep humiliation.
We have been telling you all along
that Barre is the best and smartest
town in Vermont, but we didn't expect
to have our claims so clearly and con-
clusively indicated so soon and by
such an agency as the Vermont Bible
society, whose census of the two
places just completed shows that the
percentage of illiteracy in Barre is
only about half what it is in st. Johns
bury. So much to prove that Barre
is the smartest town, and that it is
also the best is shown by the same
authority which proves that Barre has
twice as many children in Sunday
schools and only half as many out as
has our Puritanical neighbor of the
Passumpsic. In another column will
be found a call for grand public
meeting to be held on the common on
August 32d to raise money to send
two home missionaries and several
schoolmarms to labor with the heather
and benighted of the metropolis OF
Caledonia county, Let all be present
to aid so deserving a cause.

Mr.. Joseph Coldwell, Of Matteawan, N.

He felt heavy and tired. The relish for
his meals was gone and food didn't taste as
it used to. When he did eat he had main
in the stomach, chest and sides, bad taste
in the mouth, spells of giddiness and other
wretched feelings. The foundations of
health were growing shaky under Mr.. Cold
we'll.
Mrs. NJ. Maggie of the pleasant village of
Monroe, N. Y, was upset and worried with
loss of appetite and dizziness. She had
all the wearing, distressing symptoms
which go with her complaint. She was
feeble and weary. The pedestal Of health
rocked under her feet.
Yet, these people were completely cured
by Calcura Solvent, a new medicine dis
covered by DR.. David Kennedy, How
clearly these instances show us that good
health is the block we must stand on If we
would be happy and useful. Watch the
early signs of i'll health, and use Calcura

THINKS HIS WIFE is A 100000
Misfortunes Followed Rapidly After
Morgan Burgess Married Anna God.
win, a Vermont Girl.

NN'g q NN'iAOiA
Morgan Burgess, a young business
man of Green Ridge, Conn, who mar
ried three weeks ago Miss Anna God
win, a Vermont girl, pretty, accom-
plished, has sent her back to her pa
rents, probably never to see her
again. 1t was a sad parting and the
end of a strange story. Burgess loves
his bride. but is firmly convinced that
she is a "hoodoo," and that his life
would be in danger if he did not get
rid of her.
A year ago Burgess CHANGED to see a
Vermont newspaper which had been
used in wrapping up merchandise
which he bought for his general store.
Idly glancing over the pages of the pa
per Burgess saw the name of Anna
Goodwin in an account of a social en-
tertainment, and the fancy struck him
to write to her. He did so and a few
days later received a reply.
The novelty of the affair led the
young couple to continue the CORE
spondence with the result that Bur
CESS went to Vermont to bring Miss
Goodwin back as his bride. The court
ship was carried out without the
knowledge of Burgesss mother, a
widow.
When the young man assisted his
bride from the carriage in front of
the house Mrs. Burgess came out to
meet him, wondering who her son's
companion was.
Mother" said Burgess. this is my
wife whom l have brought from Yer
mont as a surprise to you
1t was a surprise indeed. for without
word Mrs. Burgess reeled and fell
dead at his feet. The doctors said the
cause of death was heart failure.
Two nights after the funeral of the
elder Mrs. Burgess the house was en-
tered by burglars and several hundred
dollars taken. A few days later a val
liable horse and two COWS became i'll
with a mysterious ailment and died.
Matters became still worse. While
driving a new horse Burgess was
thrown from his wagon and sustained
compound fracture of his left arm
Tuesday night, and Burgess's store
was struck by lightning and burned.
There was no insurance.
That was the final blow. Friday
afternoon Mr.. and Mrs. Burgess drove
to Danbury, and with a check for $1,000
in her purse and a ticket for her des-
tination, the parting gift of her hus-
band of three weeks, the bride left for
Vermont never to return. Burgess is
positive that his wife was a "hoodoo,"
and he says it serves him right for
counting a girl he had never seen.

Mrs. stella c, Read.

The funeral of Mrs. Stella G. Read
was held at the home of her daughter,
Mrs, A. L. Rand, on Thursday at IL
o'clock. A simple but expressive SER
vice was conducted by Rev. M. F.
Hardy and the burial was at her old
home, Jamaica. Mrs. Reads maiden
name was Young. She was born in
1S49, the youngest of three children of
Clark and Lura (Chapin) Young. In
1867 she was married to Fayette D..
Read, who died in 1888. Mrs. Read
united with the Congregational church
in Jamaica about 26 years ago, and
has always been a constant and faith
full member She was gifted with an
unusually sweet and sympathetic
voice, and will be remembered by
many who have found comfort through
her singing when laying their loved
ones to rest. She was loyal and true
wife, faithful mother, not only to her
own children but also to the little ones
left to her charge. Although she has
been a constant sufferer for many
years her cheerful spirit and sunny
smile have endeared her to many and
made her an unusually pleasant friend
and acquaintance. Since she parted
with her home in jamaica she has
lived with her youngest daughter, Mrs.
A. L. Rand. She will be missed by a
large circle of friends in this place.
She has set for us an example of Chris
tian piety and patience through suffer
ing which will be remembered many
years. She leaves to mourn her loss
three children, Wallace F. Read of
Hartford, Conn. Mrs. E. NJ. Surprise of
Boston. and Mrs. A. L. Rand of Town
shend, and the two to whom she took
the place of mother, Paul H. Boynton
of Jamaica and Mrs. E. H. Roberts
