Mothers Make II the Home Medicine
For Che Little Ones.

The children, God bless them, are the buds
and flowers Of our homes. Without their
Prattle and hearty laughter, our homes would
be desolate. They should ever be carefully
tended in childhood and youth, If we expect
them to npen into perfect men and women.
In the home and at school, the children
have their times Of i'll health and suffering.
We often note the palid and bloodless cheeks,
heavy eyes, nervous movements, and witch
ings Of limbs and muscles. They complain Of
headache, drowsiness, WEAKNESS, dyspepsia,
and indigestion. All such symptoms and all
ments mean that the seeds of disease will have
a fast and firm hold, unless proper measures
are taken to restore a perfect condition Of
health.
Thousands Of wise and prudent parents have
made their children happy, healthy, and vigor-
Gus by giving them NATURES medicine, Paine's
Celery Compound. In many severe and COM
Pieated cases, Paine's Celery Compound has
restored health when the little ones were given
up by physicians.

and rugged as they should be, Try the health
giving virtues Of Paine's Celery Compound.

of governor Of the commonwealth
Of the state Of Mississippi. 1 have

him to be a gentleman Of the high

schathing denunciation Of political
sin and depravity might think
him harsh, uncouth, and vulgar,
but this is not true of him. He is
elegant and refined. His terrible
invectives against crookedness
grows out Of his intense hatred of
it. I truly believe that if there is
an incorruptible man in MISSISSIPPI

Death Of George A. Stearns, the Widely
Known Lumber Dealer.

George a. Stearns, the widely known
lumber dealer. died at his home in this
town, Saturday morning, after an illness
of but a few hours. He was taken i'll in
White River Junction, VT, the day be-
fore, and was brought home on the even
ing train, at that time suffering severely
He lived until 5 O'Clock. The immediate
cause of death was a hemorrhage of the
intestines. induced by long standing in
nammation.
Mr.. Stearns was Al years old, and had
apparently been in vigorous health. He
was born in Mortified. the son of Albert
II. Stearns. He was a natural trader and
happening to make a fortunate purchase
of timber land several years ago, he
turned his attention to the business and
developed great skill in estimating the
value of timber properties. This led him
to be employed by the Diamond Match
company and for a number of years he
has been in this companys employ, on
salary. as n buyer. He also carried on
extensive dealings on his own account
and was the owner, with partners, of
mills engaged in getting out lumber in
Vermont and New Hampshire. He had
prospered in the business and won the
confidence of men with whom he had eX-
/ tensive dealings.
Mr.. Stearns married Miss Mamie Holton
of Mortified She died some two years
ago, leaving two daughters who survive
| their father. Mrs. Allan Miner and Miss
| Efiie Stearns. His mother is also living,
her home being near his in Mortified.
Mr. Stearns's death is not only a great
blow to his family, but is deeply felt as
a loss among his business associates. His
judgment was greatly valued and that he
was given a free hand in the purchase of
| large tracts of timber by such concerns
| as the Diamond Match company was evil
dence of his skill He was shrewd in
business matters but honorable in all
transactions and implicitly trusted.
The funeral at his home Monday
afternoon, was largely attended. The
bearers We're men with whom he had
business connections. The floral offerings
We're very many and beautiful. Rev. Mr.
Osgood of Brattleboro, officiated. Two
songs We're effectively sung by Mrs. n
