Mrs. G. L. Iarlon of East Charlotte az
ter hearing of 50 many remarkable cures
which have been recently performed by
the physicians of the New York and Yer
mont Private Dispensary. A. Church ST.,
burlington, VT. decided she would have
an interview with these remarkable spe-
ciaiiStS, of whom she had heard so much.
She accordingly called at their office,
where, after waiting her turn, she was
ushcrod into the consulting room.
The lady opened the conversation by
saying: Doctor, ! have called to see if
YOU can tell me where ! am troubled with
disease. | have been doctorcd with no
less than nine physicians and no one ever
relieved my suilcrings and no two agreed
as TO the cause of my painful condition"
Without entering into amy prclimnaries
the doctor sat down ana began describing
her very aches and pains. even going into
details as to cause, all this without ask
ing a question. The lady took "A course
of treatment and was entirely relieved
nf her pain in less than six hours. She
now says that the half has not been told
of the wonderful skill of these great spe-
cialists. If she had tried she could not
have told the doctor her sufferings half
so well as they told them to her and she
is confident she Will he entirely cured of
her troubles with which she has suffered
for years. i'm few weeks. The doctors
are permanently located at the above adj
dress, whore they have been for months
and II is safe to say that during that
time they can show more testimonials of
cures from responsible people in Buring-
ton and vicinity than all the other ply
siclans combined. The doctors treat sue
cessfully all chronic diseases, but make
a speciality of catarrh, diseases of the

positively guarantee cure in nervous

The Cuban Republic.

Under President Palma's wise lead
ership the Cuban Republic has pass
ed the first year of peace and pros
perity. 1t has fulfilled the hopes OF
it's friends and disappointed those
who predicted a failure at the very
beginning of the career of separate
nationality. The new Government
has paid all expenses of the year and
has a balance of $2,699,000 in it's
treasury. Sanitary and other re-
forms 80 effectively inaugurated
during American occupation have
been continued, and it is said that
the death rate of Cuba during the
year has been less than that of the
capital of our own Republic. General
order has prevailed, and the brigand-
age that was rife after several years
of warfare has been checked. There
has been a marked improvement in
trade, and the development of the

Committed Suicide.

Jesse Mitchell, blacksmith of So.
dom, who formerly lived in Morrisville,
committed suicide on the afternoon
of June 4. He was found lying in an
old barn only a few rods from the
house in which he lived with his
mother. He had cut his throat in
five places with a razor. He was
found at 4 o'clock, and DR.. Grimes,
of Montpelier was summoned, who
arrived at o'clock, and took 25
stitches in the wounds. He was
not unconscious although he had
lost a large amount of blood before
the arrival OF the doctor. During the
operation he talked to the doctor,
saying, 81 didn't do a very good lob
did II" He was carried to his moth
er's home, where he died about nine
o'clock in the evening of commissions.
The deceased formerly lived here
and was the only son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Peter Mitchell. The elder Mitchell
conducted blacksmith business
here for years, until his death, which
occurred a few years since. Jesse
also worked at his trade here more
or less until within a year or two.

after fortune who made the race one
fine day in April. During his travel

much bad water, which, together
with the severe heat, gave him very
severe diarrhoea which it seemed al.
most impossible to check, and along
in June the case became SO bad he ex-
pected to die. One day one of his
neighbors brought him one small

Governor for 1904.

Much speculation is INDUCED in thus
early as to the possibilities of certain
gentlemen receiving the nomination
for governor in 1904. In the list OF
eligibles, yet incomplete, wenotice the
familiar names of Allen M. Fletcher,
of Cavendish, Robert j. Kimball, OF
Randolph, Ide of st. Johnsbury, Bell
of Walden, and Merrifield of Newfane.
These gentlemen, we are convinced,
would dohonor to the state in any
official capacity, but whether or not
the astute and arbitrary politician,
who has of late become an important
factor in all conventions and cleo
tions, will take either of them in tow
is the all-essential point yet to be set
tied. Under the new political regime
in Vermont the aspirant with the
goods" stands the best chance of
winning out, regardless of the fact
that his opponents may be more eligi-
ible to the Office. The people of the
Green Mountain state have been for
tunate enough thus far, in selecting for
this Office, able, patriotic, and consci-
entious men. The fact that an abun-
dance OF good material still exists
within the old state is testified to by
the goodly number of Vermonters
called to important posts in all parts
of the nation and the world. Under
the pressure of necessity we are conf
dent that we could produce a few
gentlemen here in Windham county
eligible for the duties of chief execu-
tive.-Deerfeld Valley Times.
