ANOTHER SUFFERER
Is Quickly Relieved Of a Ter
rible Monster.
WiIIiamstoWn Lady Who Had Suffered
For Years Now Enjoys Good
Degree Of Health,

Mrs. f. II. Baldwin, who resides in
Williamstown, next 10 the well-known
T.. Pratt residence on the WilllamstOwn
road, has been a great sufferer for the
past two years, experiencing great
pain. as il something was moving in
the abdomen. The pain became so Sc
we're that the family physician was cali
ed. and after an examination he said
1t was caused from gas iu the bowels,
produced BY dyspepsia, and the patient
was treated for the same, But still she
grew worse, and at times was almost
frantic with pain. Still no relief could
be found until DR.. Morrow Of No. 3
South Main street. Barre, was caaled
upon. Then, 10 Mrs. Baldwins great
surprise, she was informed by the doe
tor that her great suffering was caused
by frog in the stomach and that he
could easily remove it and relieve her
sHfferIngs.
Mrs. Baldwin, after taking the doc
tors treatment few days, was relieved
OF this monster. Although the frog
was removed some four weeks ago, she
has suffered no pain since in either the
stomach or bowels When seen by the
writer Mrs Baldwin said
II am more than pleased with Dir.
Merrow's treatment, as he has done all
he claimed in my case in every detail,
and | would not be back where ! was a
few weeks ago and 90 through what
suffering | have been through in the
past two years for all the money in
Williamstown."
There is no question but what DR..
Morrow is one of the most able physi-
clans in this country, and the many
wonderful cures he has effected since
he located in Barre should convince
the most skeptieal that in chronic dis
eases, such rs removing monsters and
parasites from the stomach and bow
els, and in the treatment of rheuma-
tism. diseases OF the kidneys, stomach
liver and bowels, together with all ca
tarrhal affections and chronic diseases
OF the lungs, it is safe TO say that DR..
Morrow has few equals. As his charges
are within the reach of all, and his Of
fee days are Mondays, Wednesdays
and Saturdays, we would advise all
sufferers from chronic diseases to con
suit pr Morrow at once. Ii your case
is durable he will tell you so. and if not
he will tell you 50, and if not durable
he will also ADVISE you as to the best
course to pursue TO relieve suffering
where no cure can be made.

Will Hazelton left town last week Mon
day for Burlington, where he has been en-
gagged to coach the baseball team at the
q. Y. NJ for the next six weeks before
leaving for st. Louis.
A short time ago it was announced that
Willard G. Hazelton of this place had
signed to play first base the coming sea-
son in the st. Louis National League
team. The following is from the Boston
Post.
1.-THE news was read with intense pleas
ure by that young mans friends, who are
legion in Boston and throughout central
Massachusetts,, where he enjoys a high
reputation as fast and most promising
player
Mr.. Hazelton graduated last June from
Tufts, was fitted for college at Dean acad-
envy, Franklin, Mass. where he made a rep
utation as pitcher, being one of the Var
sity team.
His love for baseball dates back to the
lad in kits whose chief fun was in tossing
ball on our little common near his home.
One remembers well his laughing, sun
shiny face as he caught the ball, beating
some other boy not as deft-fingered as he.
While at Tufts, he endeared himself to
his sehoolfellows by his quiet, studious
and gentlemanly demeanor. In his first
college year, he was unanimously elected
captain of the team. For two summer va
chiioHs ne piaNtu Win various amateur
teams in central Massachusetts and at the
White Mountains with the Fabyan team,
where he met with fearful accident, be-
ing knocked down by ball, but his pluck
soon brought him TO his feet, when he
played three succeeding innings and final
ly tell unconscious, the blow having rup-
tured blood vessel in his head.
He was taken Immediately to Hanover
and placed in the Hitchcock hospital,
where he could have the best OF treatment.
The clot of blood was removed and after
ward pieces of bone from the skull,
which was broken, were removed. There
was little expectation of his recovery.
Nearly week had elapsed before he re-
gained consciousness. In a months time
he was allowed to come to his home. His
physicians told him his perfect physical
condition was what saved him.
He neither drinks nor smokes, but pays
strict attention to his diet. Before play
ing a game he simply takes a bowl of
bread and milk, but at night his dinner is
a generous slice of steak or roast beef, and
he denies himself tea and coffee and sweets
of any kind.
Young Hazelton's ambition is the study
of medicine, and the money obtained by
baseball playing he intends shall go to
that end. The best wishes of all his
townsmen go with him.

furniture shops, decorators and seam
stresses, a steam laundry, a messenger
service, a printing Office, a wine cell
lar, with half a million dollars worth
of choice vintages, and a clubhouse
with billiard and reading rooms and
cafes. The town would be policed day
and night by a dozen private detec-
tives, and it would have a well-trained
fire department. There would be a
bank, over whose counters would pass
millions of dollars each year, and a
central executive Office with scores OF
clerks and bookkeepers and auditors.
The proprietor of this town would as
sumo all the housekeeping cares OF
his 1900 tenants, and many of his 1900
employees. He would provide amuse-
ments and act as the court Of last
resort. 1t would seem as If the man
who was rash enough to attempt the
management of such a town, stalking
his fortune on the issue, must neces-
sarily fall; but as a fair illustration 1t
is not overdrawn. It's parallel is
found in a compact form, with no fea-
lures missing and many added, in the

If one of New York's big modern
hotels could be whisked to the country
and in village formation the result
would be a model proprietary town OF
about 5000 inhabitants. One-half OF
these inhabitants would work, in re-
lays night and day for the comfort
and entertainment of the other half,
whose obligation would be the pay
ment ri the bills, which, in the ag-
gregate, would represent in addition
to the running expenses and perhaps
5000 900 a year set aside for the pro-
prietor's profits, the interest on $15,-

ton OF a special course, ranging from
the soups and entrees and roasts to
the pastries and coffee. There would
be half a dozen big banquet rooms and
bathrooms, several music rooms and a
well-appointed theater or two. The
town would have, of course, a tele-
graph office, a complete telephone sys-
tenn and some means Of rapid transit
to every house. Enormous boilers
would supply the heat, and an electric
light plant would furnish the illumina-
ton. There would be an ice plant
large enough to manufacture fifty tons
a day. There would be silversmith,

Scientific and
Safe Duel

There is little danger to be feared
now in accepting a challenge to fight
a duel. According to statistics which
have been gathered at considerable
trouble, it would appear that dueling.
though a barbarous and stupid prac-
tice. is less dangerous than bicycling
or ordinary railroad travelling. Only
1876 out of 1914 duels in twenty years
in italy were fought with rapier or
foils, 3,5O1 were fought with the sabre,
244 with pistols, and IA with rifles or
other arms. OF the 1928 duelists 5000
were wounded, and only 20, or n per
annum died. The person who compiled
these figures further says that the tenn
perature has considerable to do with
the frequency of duels, perhaps be-
cause intending duelists are afraid Of
catching cold. In France, where 1.-The
code'' is resorted to more frequently
than anywhere else, the duel has al
most reached the altruistic stage. Par
is duelists OF late have taken to the
sterilizing of their swords, and now it
would be considered as r~eprehensible
for a duelist as it is for a surgeon to
omit "the usual antiseptic precau-
tions." In a newspaper story of a re-
cent duel between young Daudet, the
son of the novelist, and a journalist
of Paris named Richard, it is said that
after the first attack the point Of Dau-
diets sword accidentally touched the
ground, when the seconds interviewed
and stopped the contest until the blade
could be disinfected. If this practice
should spread to the armies of the
world we might be treated to the spec
tacle of two great opposing bodies Of
troops engaged in sterilizing their
weapons before beginning . battle.

But l saw, to my surprise, that he
had turned his back upon me.
do you hear?" l asked.
YES" said he, II do. If you wish to
fight, l am ready. If not, go on and
ave Clara. All is one to me-"
I did not wait to be twice hidden;
but, STOPPING again over Clara, con
tinued my efforts to revive her. She
still lay white and lifeless; l began to
fear that her sweet spirit had indeed
fed beyond recall, and horror and a
sense of utter d%esolation seized upon
my heart. l called her by name with
the most e%ndearing infections; 1 chafed
and beat her hands; now l laid her
head low, now supported it against my
knee; but all seemed to be in vain, and
the lids still lay heavy on her eyes.
~"Northmour." I said, there is my
hat. For Gods sake bring some water
from the spring"
Almost in a moment he was by my
side with the water.
II have brought it in my own" said
he. you do not grudge me the privi-
lege?"
"Northmour," I was beginning tc
say, as l laved her head and breast, but
he interrupted me savagely.
"Oh, you hush up!" he said. "The
best thing you can do is to say moth
ing"
l had certainly no desire to talk, my
mind being swallowed up in concern
for my dear love and her condition: sc
/ continued in silence to do my best
toward her recovery, and when the
hat was empty, returned it to him with
one word-"More." He had, perhaps
gone several times upon this erranc
when Clara opened her eyes,.
"Now," said he, "since she is better
you can spare me, can you not? l wish
you a goodnight, Mr.. Cassilis."
