Fifty years is long period of service,

an honorable and useful one to the city

That this service has been appreciated

LETTER TO ISAAC LAvoNoHe.

Dear Sir: The cost of labor in painting
a house is three times the cost of the
paint. You seem to save little when
You buy a lower priced paint, but you
certainly add to the cost of labor when
You pay for spreading more gallons.
You don't even save on paint. Devoe
Lead and Zinc cost little more than
mixed paints, but it takes fewer gallons,
and the cost is actually less.
Wears longer, too longer than mixed
paints, longer than lead and oil.
You don't save a cent
Mr.. c. Loeb, painter in Magnolia,
Miss, writes:
After years of experiments with
mixed paints, | find that your paint
covers more surface to the gallon than
any ! have ever used. For density and
wearing qualities it cannot be excelled
Compared with Lead and Oil; A
house belonging to the late President of
Croton River Bank at Brewster, N. V.
cost S3l ,0OO) was painted with lead and
oil in "a at a cost of 800. In 'S7-three
years-it was reprinted with Devoe at
cost of $3.50. In '97 the house was still
all right.
Results:lead and oil-Si00, wear three;
Devoe- cost $3.50. wear ten wears.

Old iRecord S.

Can any one inform me what has
become of the records of the old Female
Seminary? In the absence of catalogues
and other data these records would be
important for permanent preservation.
A record must have been kept of every

Mrs. Willard to Mr.. Leavitt. Occasion
ally an old catalog is found and it is
interesting to read the names of those
who attended in by gone years. The

different societies, some of them more
than hundred years old Please hunt
them up and have all these old mementos
kept together.

Its List Warmly Commended.

One of the most notable tributes ever
paid to a great business corporation was
that of the late Frederick d. Happen, of
New York, to the Mutual Life Insur-
ance Company, of New York. 1t was,
in the words of the Hon. Levi F. Nor
ton, particularly impressive in that it
is the expression of a judgment ripened
by half century's study of investment
securities Frederick d. Tappan, pres
ident of the Gallatin National Bank of
New York, and for the last fifty years a
conspicuous figure in the banking world,
died last February. In the last clause of
his will Mr.. Tappan provides for certain
trusts. and instructs his executors and
trustees to invest the proceeds of his
estate only in securities ''included in the
list of investments made by the Mutual
Life Insurance Company of New York,
not limiting my said executors and
trustees or their successors or successor
to such investments only as trustees are
by law authorized to make. The pecul-
fiar import of this provision will be I'M
derstood by those familiar with Mr..
Tappan's career and the conservative
policy under which the Investments of
the Mutual Life Insurance Company of
New York are made. This provision in
Mr.. Tappan's will is certainly glowing
tribute to fifty-nine years conservative
administration of the largest accumula-
ton of trust funds in the world. Mr.
Elbridge T. Gerry, "A director of the
company, in writing of it. said: Com
pliments from the living are often insin-
cere-those from the dead, never" 1t
is of interest to note that Mr.. Tappen
had no connection with the Mutual Life
Insurance Company except as "A policy

Longest in Service.
From the Boston Daily Globe.

=
Considerable mention has been made
in the State papers concerning the length
of time certain firemen have served in
this state and several lay claim to the
longest term of service as fire fighter,
but doubtless Middlebury will capture
the palm. Frank r. Stone, of this town,
is fireman whose record for length of
time in the service probably exceeds that
of any other man in the state.
Mr. Stone was born in Crown Point
n. Y, along the shores of Lake Cham
plain, some dozen miles west of this
town. and at 10 years of age was earning
his living by plotting IA boat across the
lake from New York to Vermont as a
public ferry.
He came here when IS years old, has
resided here 81 years, and has seen
nearly three decades of service in the
fire department of this old college town.
His first work in the department was
with the old Washington hand engine
company in 1878. with which he was
connected 10 years.

CURES CHRONIC CATARRH.
Hyomei Cures Worst Forms of this Disease
in Any Part of the system.

Hyomei Cures Worst Forms of this Disease
in Any Part of the system.
1t is the height of folly to continue
doctoring a catarrhal disease by stomach
dragging, when the whole trouble lies
in the respiratory organs where nothing
can reach the germs but local direct
treatment by inhalation. Hyomei is
Natures remedy for the cure of catarrh.
Just breathe it few times daily and it
will effect cure.
You may have catarrh of the stomach.
liver or kidneys and Hyomei will as
surely cure it as it will catarrh of the
head and throat. The catarrhal germs
are in the mucous membrane or tissues
and Hyomei not only kills the germs
along the air passages, but enters the
blood with the oxygen, killing the germs
in the blood.
The medicated dry air that goes
through the air passages, and into the
lungs when Hyomei is breathed through
the inhaler that accompanies every out
fit is rich in ozone, purely vegetable,
and filed with marvellous healing and
strengthening qualities.
If you are tired of stomach dragging
and seem TO grow weaker all the time.
'throw physic to the dogs" and get well
with the health-giving Hyomei treat
ment that is natures own method.
Rev. j. b. Cook, of Holliston, Mass,
says: my wife has suffered greatly
from catarrh for fifteen years. Nearly
four weeks ago she commenced to use
Hyomei and the beneficial effect was
immediate. 1t is very seldom that she
needs to clear her head and throat, and
she is able to rest quietly at night. For
years past she had been troubled with
pain in her limbs which we supposed
was rheumatism, but since she has used
Hyomei that afiliction has disappeared. "
DIR. w. H. Sheldon will return your
money if Hyomei does not cure you of
catarrh. This shows his faith in the
remedy.

LandsIides and Railroad Wreck.

The night mail train on the Central
Vermont railroad ran into mass of
rocks that had slid down upon the
track near Mortified. April 3, and the
engine, tender and three cars went down
40 foot embankment. The fireman,
Timothy O'Neil, of Mortified, was
killed, and several of the train men
injured The engineer, John Lynch,
miraculously escaped without a scratch
The regular passenger engine broke
down at Bethel and the engine and crew
were taken from freight at that point
The accident was due to the heavy
rains that had loosened the rocks in the
big ledge at this point.
There was a big landslide just south of
Wells River the day before that blocked
the Passumpsic division of the B. &. NJ.
Ry. for over a day. This was FORUM
ately discovered in season to avoid a
wreck. At both places there was a

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local application, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an infamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachlan lube. When this tube
gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, ana when it is entirely
closed deafness is the result, and unless the
Inflammation can be taken out and this tube
restored TO its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out OF ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an inhamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that
can not be cured by Hairs Catarrh Cure.
