MULFORO r. BURT SUR
PRISED.

Remarkable Result OF Business Enterprise
and Foresight.
When milford R. Burt, the enter
prising druggist, rather than await the
ordinary methods of introduction, urged
the DIR. Howard Co. to secure sale
quickly in Middlebury for their cele
brated specific for the cure of constipa-
ton and dyspepsia, by offering the
regular so cent bottle, containing 60
doses, at half price, he did not anticipate
the phenomenal success that has re-
suited.
The wonderful sale for the specific as
a result of his plan was as much of a
surprise to Mr.. Burt as to anyone. He
has not only a sale for DR.. Towards
specific here in Middlebury that is far
larger than many of the old standard
remedies, but he is almost daily in re-
ceipt of mail orders for the specific.
So much favorable talk has been
caused by this offer, and so many new
friends have been made for the specific,
that the DR.. Howard Co. have author
lied Druggist Burt to continue this
special half price sale little longer.
In addition to selling the regular 80
cent bottle of DR.. Towards specific for
% cents, Mr.. Burt has so much faith in
the remedy, from seeing what it has
done for his customers, that he will re-
fund the money to any one whom it
does not cure.
Any person who is subject to constipa-
ton, sick headache, dizziness, liver
trouble, indigestion, or tired feelings,
ought to take advantage of Mr.. Burt's
offer. Remember, DIR. Towards specific
is absolutely free unless it cures, and
even then, at this special price, the cost
is but trifle.

The -year-old daughter of Charles
Loseby, who lives on the west road to
Proctor and is employed by the Yer
mont Marble Co., at its Center Rutland
plant, died Wednesday night from what
is thought to be ptomaine poisoning,
and two sons, aged four and two years,
respectively are critically Ill., The case
is something of a mystery to the doctors
in attendance, who have been able to
get but little information in the matter.
The theory is that death was due to
ptomaines, facts which lead to this sup
position being that Tuesday the children
while playing in lot near their home
used some old tin cans which they had
picked up, in boiling potatoes over a fire
built by them. They ate the potatoes
and little later were seized with illness
which caused the death of the eldest
and leaves the Others dangerously i'll.
