Arriving at a Verdict.

Kushequa, Pa, Aug. 1.-(SpeciaD
In this section OF Pennsylvania there
is growing belief that for such Kid
ney Diseases as Rheumatism and Lame
Back there is only one sure cure and
that is Dodd's Kidney Pills. This be-
lief grows from such cases as that of
Mrs. NJ. L. Dawson of this place. She
tells the story herself as follows:
81 have suffered from rheumatism
for thirty years and find that Dodd's
Kidney Pills have done me more good
than any medicine 1 have ever taken.
1 was also bothered with Lame Back
and L can only say that my back hash t
bothered me since l took DoGd's Kid
ney Pills"
Considering that Mrs. Dawson only
took two boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills,
the result would be considered wonder
full were it not that others are reporting
similar results daily. Kushequa is fast
arriving at verdict that "Dodd's Kid.
ney Pills are the one sure cure foi

NEW TRAIN SERTICE.

In a recent interview with a COM
mittee OF business men from Montpe-
lier E. j. Fitzhugh, general manager
of the Central Vermont railway, stated
that he would do all in his power to
bring about train service into Mont
pelier during session, which would
prove of greater convenience to the
visiting Legislators. That Mr.. Fitz-
hugh meant what he said and was
truly DESTROYS of serving the public to
the best of his ability was demon
strated this morning by the gratifying
dispatch received by L. B. Gross,
chairman of the committee, which
reads:
Referring 10 our recent conference
at Montpelier we will continue the SER
vice between Burlington and Montpe-
lier, and, effective October 4, will, for
the present at least, run local rains s
and 8 into Montpelier, continuing such
service throughout the session if there
are sufficient passengers to warrant
apd the change does not prove of too
great Inconvenience to our other pat
rons. " Signed E. j. Fitzhugh.
This means that Montpelier will
have a train service direct to the city
which she has been endeavoring every
session to procure for the past twenty
five years, without success, and the
public joins the committee in its ex.
preston of appreciation for the court
esy shown by Mr.. Fitzhugh in his ef-
fort to serve them well
The two trains mentioned above are
the mail train from the north which
arrives at 8 30 O'Clock and the local
train from the south due about s :35 in
the morning. With these important
trains running direct to the city with.
out change at Montpelier junction,
and the train from Rutland arriving
about o. clock, which was on last ses-
sion. will do great deal to give
Montpelier good service and in that
way accommodate the session visitors.
The question was first brought up
at the meeting of the business men in
j. II. Senter's Office some time ago,
and after that l.. b. Gross kept the
iron hot arranging for an interview,
through J. p. Gallaher, the local
agent, with Mr.. Fitzhugh. a COM
mittee of representative business men
met Me- Fitzhugh short time ago in
an Informal manner and talked over
the situation. They found Mr.. Fitz-
hugh not only congenial man to meet
but one who has proved to be solicit
Gus for the welfare of the public.
The committee was made up as fol-
lows: l.. B. Gross, chairman, Mayor
f. NJ. Cory, A. d, Farwell, W. e.
Adams and K. M. Harvey.
