Rats Cause Era.

1t is believed that rats dragging
matches into a, hole in the basement
of jamestown grocery store was
the cause of what might have been a
disastrous fire. The basement was
found filled with smoke at q late hour
at night and the origin seemed to be
in an old piece of burlap that had
been drawn into u rat hole and with
which PHOSPHORUS from matches had
probably come in contact.

CONFIDENCE

said Lord Chatham, els a plant
of slow growth" People believe
in things that they see, and in a
broad sense they are right. What
is sometimes called blind faith is
not faith at all. There must be
reason and fact to form a foun-
dation for trust. In regard to a
medicine or remedy, for example,
people ask, "Has it cured 9TH
ers? Have cases like mine been
relieved by it? Is it in harmony
with the truths of modern science,
and has it a record above suspic-
ion? If so, it is worthy of conf
dence; and if | am ever attacked
by any of the maladies for which
it is commended / shall resort
