SPRING AILMENTS.

There is an aching and tired feeling; the liver, bowels and kid neys become sluggish and inac- tive the digestion impaired with little or no appetite, no ambition for anything, and feeling that the whole body and mind needs toning up. The trouble is, that during winter, there has been an accumulation of waste matter in the system. Heroine will remove it, secnre to the secretions right exit, and by it's tonic effect, fully restore the wasted tissues and give strength in place of weak ness. soc at pr. J. B. Neal.

The Man of Destiny.

The remarkable parsonage, of whom the prophets of old have prophecied and of whom the poli- ticians have always dreamed, has at last made his advent. On last Saturday, the busiest day of the week, this Jeff Davis prototype first saw the light of day at the hospitalbe home o H. J. Cariker. 1t is said that he had no sooner anchored his canoe on earth, than he began to curse and snort a. bout that internal Augusta ring and in order to put the proper emphasis to the climax of the whole drama, he yelled hurrah for Patterson.
 Henry was out in the lot milk ing Pied when this unusual poli- tical harangue was going on and as Pied had always been accus- toned to Quietness, she very i'm modestly used the extreme end Of one of her ropst-a= boutsand pasted that bucket of milk a la Sullivan. Of course, the milk spattered all over MT. Cariker. He of course was looking for death to come to his relief. He begins running toward the house repeating the golden text at ev- cry step. Do you suppose the new born politician within the house stopped to hear his papa s Sunday School discourse? Not much. He kept right on about the ring. He yelled out oh yes, they bought Martin Junction and they didn't buy it; they elect ed their candidates and they didn't elect them; they said Do unto the other fellow as he would like to do unto you and do it fust.
 And we did it. They said don t play the baby act, let the longest pole do the work. From what the neighbors tell us, we are lead to believe that MT. Cariker's theme soon lost it's charm compared with this eloquent product of the twentieth century. Mr. Carike I can't realize how it is that such a young creature can raise such sand. Henry, you must keep your other eye on that young political hero of Woodruff county, for we see the Salvation of our county near at hand.

here; from $40,0O to $75.OO per acre. There is not much chance for a poor man to own a home. In this county, land rents for third and fourth. One man and two horses can cultivate 50 to 65 acres easy. Farm labor costs from $15. to $20. per month. Myself and relatives are in the best of health and we'll satisf sfed with this coun- try.
 I am very we'll satisfied with the result of the primary in old Woodruff county. Hurrah for Jeff Davis and Clark, Down with the trusts and rings. A word to sis ter Nancy. I am proud of the fight you made against the ring: your speeches were a credit to any man, You are young enough to stand several defeats; just look at Pat, he was defeated several times; acted like gentleman and got there eli at the right time. He IS the right man at the right place. Hurrah for Pat. I was sorry to hear of capt. Jones de- mise; he was a good man, I have known him for 23 years.
 Success to the News and it's many readers. J. s. HAGGARD.

Did you ever do fayors for mankind. Strive to tighten their burdens of care. Stand true to your trust forever Scatter sunshine around everywhere, Did you ever depend on one then To give you lift on ife's way And have them refuse to aid you Even one of your trials to stay?
 Was you ever forsaken and weary Because pretended friends passed you by, casting smile at your downfall Not even heaving sigh? Ones you have helped tn their labor Ones you would yet gladly aid, Havethem turn flee from you to another Turn against you as tho they'er afraid?
 Did you,ever hold a position Of trust. do yaur duty and we'll Then have every one turn against you Like you'd come from murders cell? Turn from the one who has helped them Put their trtst in another instead, Extending to him hearty welcome Stamp your favor with most cruel tread:
 Oh! think now my friends are you doing As others have done nnto you; Are you rewarding the one who has helped you Or have you turned traitor too; Do yov do your duty with pleasure, Is duty the oar to your boat?
 God pity the people of Woodruff If it's citizens pray like they vote.
 The above is one of the spring poet variety. When birds begin to warble their sweet and heaven ly notes and brooks to mur- mur on their way to meet the basso profoundo of the mightier streams and old earth puts on her robes of green and the mead ows are gladdened with the smiles of Buttercups and Daisies, then, is it strange that human hearts begin to vibrate in harmo- nious unison to the oratorios of natures music? We say no. He. who in the love of nature holds communion with her invisible forms," must needs give vent to the pent-up possibilities of his God given nature. The above poem was not written by Miss Nancy, but by her friend. Miss Nancy always writes in prose,

The Painter.

On last Monday morning, as Miss Nancy was on her way to the post-office, what do you sup pose she saw? It was our friend, Sam Kyle, up above the world so high like a diamond on step- ladder. Sam, who is an adept at anything from the realms of bus mess to frivolity, was engaged in a new role in which Miss Nancy has never seen him act before. But suffice 1t to say, Sam was as much at home with the paint brush on the ladder as he is talk ing drive with his best girl and any one that knows Sam, knows he is at home there. We'll to make a short story long, Sam was beautifying the shirt bosom of his saloon; in other words, the
  saloon front. He painted the weather boarding white and in order to remind some politicians or defeated candidates how they look, he has trimmed the front with blue. The red indicates war with anything from a nail eater on up to and including the Salt river gang, Why can't all of our business men have the front of their business houses painted? It will improve the looks of our town 100 per cent. Try it and see.

MASSACHUSETTS MAYORS
VISIT BARRE

Some 60 embers OF the MasSacnu

spection to the quarries today as the
guests OF Former Mayor A. f. Sort
well of Cambridge, Mass.
The party arrived in Montpelier last
evening on their annual outing and
this morning boarded a special train
OF two cars over the M. & W. r. rail
road tor this city. On their way they
made short stop at Jones Bros, long
enough to permit a brief inspection of
the shed.
Then they were taken to Barclay
Bros. for another inspection and thence
up on the hill to see the quarries.
All the party were much pleased
with what they saw. Said Levi s..
Gould Of Melrose, the first mayor OF
that city and the present chairman OF
the county commissioners Of Middle
sex county, which contains fully as
many people as are in Vermont, to a
TEIEGRAA reporter on the train:
ave are delighted at what we have
seen and astonished as we'll. 1t was a
perfect revelation to US to see the
huge oiocks Of granite handled and
dressed as they were at Jones Bros.
and Barclay Bros. We did not believe
it was possible to do such exquisite
carving in granite as we saw done. o.

Suck 0 1t in amazement as we had
never seen anything like it before"
Mayor Larabee OF Woburn also ex.
pressed himself in similar terms. What
surprised him most was to see the
way 52-ton stone was handled, but
lie was asslred that such things we're
every day occurrences in Barre, the
chief stone city OF the United States
and the head Of the granite industry.
The party were under obligation to
A. d. Morse, president OF the Barre
railroad, Gen. Supt. E. w. Stanyan

courtesies extended. Mayor c. w.
