The library is on display at Young's

umes the Ardmoreite noted that there
is a complete set of Charles Dudley
Warmers library of the worlds best
literature; also a set of the Worlds
Great Classics. We notice such great
authors and scholars as John Stewart
Mill, Hegel, Darwin. Creasey. Lord
Bacon. Shakespeare, Taine, etc. These
classics compose their greatest et-
forts-in other words those gems Of
literature that have stood the test OF
time and criticism. Then follows

nucleus to build from, an impetus Of
encouragement which will no doubt re-
suit in securing a much needed en-
terprise. The merchants and others

Very Remarkable Cure of Diarrhea,

"About six years ago for the first time
in my life | had sudden and severe at
tack of diarrhoea," says Mrs. Alice
Miller, of Morgan, Texas. 81 got tempo
rary relief, but it came back again and
again, and for six long years have suf-
fered more misery and agony than | can
tell. 1t was worse than death. My hus-
band spent hundreds of dollars for ply
sicians prescriptions and treatment with
out avail. Finally we moved to Bosque
county, our present home, and one day
happened to see an advertisement of
Chamberlain Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy with the testimonial of
man who had been cured by it. The
case was so similar to my own that |
concluded to the remedy. The result
was wonderful. | could hardly realize
that l was we'll again, or believe it could
be so after having suffered so long, but
that one bottle of medicine, costing but
few cents, cured me-" For sale by j.

Lexington and So. Canaan.

The funeral services of the late AL
bert Blodgett were held at the South
Canaan Church June %, Rev. Mr..
Walker officiating. Mr.. Blodgett was
born in Lexington 50 years ago, and
lived there more than forty years, but
for many years had been a citizen of
Canaan. He was good citizen and
we'll liked in the community in which
he lived. Mr. Blodgett had long been
afflicted with asthma and for several
years had been great sufferer. He
was twice married, and leaves a widow
and several children to mourn his death.
George Capen, while driving cattle
on horseback June "a, was very badly
injured. The horse which had been
urged to its utmost speed ran violently
against one of the cattle, knocking it
down and falling over it and rolling
over George who had been thrown from
the horses back. Men near by who
picked George up, supposed him to be
dead, but in about two hours he re-
gained consciousness, and though very
badly injured it is thought he will re
cover.

THE NEW ROAD.

The part undertaken by the town in
the agreement with the Grand Trunk
Company relative to the proposed
changes at this place is being rapidly
completed. The highway around Back
Pond to replace the one parallel with the
track will he ready for travel in a few
DAYS. This road is more than half a
mile long and very difficult one to con
struct, a part of it being over soft
ground, requiring filling depth of from
three to five feet, and another part pass
ing through granite ledge, that had to
be blasted out. 1t is also necessary to
build bridge and two culverts. We
understand the land damage paid in the
LAYING out of this road exceed two thou
sand dollars, which will be about all II
will cost the town, as Dale and Sweeney
agreed to build the road and pay the
land damage for $4,000. The contract
for the easterly end OF the road was LEI
by them to John Chadwick, who did the
work in so satisfactory manner ina
arrangements were made with him tt
complete it. The town is certain!
fortunate that it has men whose hber
atty and local business interests caus
them to put through an undertaking o.
this kind at SO small an expense to tn
town, and Mr.. Chadwick is to be col
graduated on the reputation he is az
curing as road builder. We hope t
report soon some move on the part Q
the Railroad Company toward com
nlencing their part of the contract

OBITUARY.

Died at Lisbon, Maine, June 10, of
cerebral hemorrhage, Levi w., son of
John c. and Melissa Dolloff, in the 6lst
year of his age.
Mr.. Dolloff was born in Lowell, Mass,
February II, lS42. At an early age he
removed with his parents to northern
Vermont, where he spent several years
in farm work, teaching, and attending
school. In March 1866 he entered the
medical department of the University
of Michigan, at Ann Arbor. After fin
ishing this course he practiced medicine
short time in Niles, Michigan, but be-
ing of deeply sensitive and sympa-
thetic nature, he shrank from disease
and suffering and abandoned this pro-
fession for that of law, again entering
the University of Michigan as student
in the law department. He was admit
ted to the bar in 1875, and in the same
year married Miss Ella Huyck, of
Prairie Ronde, Michigan. Together they
removed to Colorado where he engaged
in the practice of law until January
1908, when his health failed and he was
obliged to rest. The following March
he went to Virginia to visit his daughter,
and was greatly benefited by the change,
so much so that he started home June
10th to resume his practice, visiting on
the way friend in Lisbon, Maine, and
two sisters in East Charleston, Vermont.
At Lisbon he had relapse, his wife was
telegraphed for, but was unable to see
him alive. All that love could plan, or
skill advise, was done, but the impera-
tive summons had come calling him to
the home above, and the spirit, so full
of love for humanity, went out into the
silence. Short services were held at Lis
bon and he was brought to Island Pond,
Vermont, where again services were
held, Mr.. Hall of the First Congrega-
tional Church speaking words OF COM
fort and consolation, comparing the life
of the deceased to that of Jacob of old,
who, after long wanderings was brought
back and laid to rest beside his parents
Mr.. Dolloff was a self made man in
every respect, paying for his education
by teaching, and by the labor OF his
hands. He was always student and

|. o. F. MEMORIAL SUNDAY.

Abstract of Sermon preached by the
Rev. E. P. Lee at Christ Church, be-
fore Essex Lodge, l. O.. OF
"Pure religion and undefled before
God and the Father, is this, to visit the
fatherless and widows in their affection,
and to keep himself unspotted from the
world" IS. James i. ~.
Religion in the abstract, means the
acknowledgment of mans obligation to
God. The history of mankind shows
that religion is necessary to fill natural
longing in the heart Of man. There is,
and can be only one true religion, and
that is the one directly revealed to man
by God himself. All the false religions
of the world are but peryersions and
corruptions of Gods original revelation,
which have merely degenerated into
human PHILOSOPHERS. A good example
of that degeneration is the religion Of
China, which to-day consists mainly in
the worship of ones ancestors. All such
religions tend to selfishness and for.
getfulness of any obligation to God Oh
our neighbors. Examples OF this are
found in the loss of natural affection
which leads the heather mother to sell
her surplus female child, or throw it into
the Ganges.
Christianity, however, first revealed
to man after the fall, in the garden o.
Eden, and planted like seed in man''
heart, nourished and kept alive by direct
revelation to peculiar people, the Isra
elites, chosen for that very purpose, ha.
in these days come to perfection through
the new creation by our Lord ant
Saviour Jesus Christ. The origina
plant has grown and become grea
tree, blossomed out and sends its swee
