HOMECOMING.

How beautiful it is 60 come
To the dear home once more,
When al the loved ones have returned.
Their luHg vacations DER
How happy the reunion is,
How glad to meet, and greet;
HOW thankful all are safely back,
fNC circle still complete.
Tut IT, All ne! on coming home,
When summer days are done.
We miss from the accustomed place
4 dear familiar one.
How sorrOwtul ttIc meeting then,
How fun of grief, and pain,
And longing for the vanished form,
That ne er will come again.
God pity all such homes that bow
In mourning Ger their dead,
And grant that every wounded heart
BE soothed and comforted.
God pity these-and when the veil
Is rent for evermOrC,
Give each a happy coming home
Upon the other shore.

AWFUL NEURALGIA
MIR. Porter Thought He Should Go Mao

Cured Him.

"It seems like a miracle that DR..
Williams Pink Pills should have cured
my neuralgia, said Mr.. Porter. "They
are certainly q marvellous medicine and
am always GLAD to recommend them
"For two years." he continued, 81 had
suffered almost uncomfortable pains in my
head. They would start over my eyes
and shoot upward most frequently, but
they often spread over my face, and at
times every part of my head and face
would be full of agony. Sometimes the
pains were SO intense that | actually
feared they would drive me mad.
my eyes ached constantly and there
was alwaysa burning sensation over my
forehead, but the other pains varied,
sometimes they were, acute, and again
they were dull and lingering. L could
not sleep. My temper was irritable and
got no pleasure out of life.
81 tried remedy after remedy, but
finding no help i'll any of them, be-
came a despairing man. Even when I
began to take DIR. Williams Pink Pills I
had no great hope of q cure.
"That was in December of 1903 To
my surprise, change in my condition
took place right away. The pains grew
less intense and the acute attacks were
further apart, as l kept on using DIR. Viii
liams' Pink Pills. The improvement be-
gan with the first box, and when had
used six boxes I stopped. My cure was
complete and has lasted ever SINCE
Mr.. Charles II. Porter lives at Ray

people who have found that DIR. Williams
Pink Pills will cure diseases of the nerves
that have stubbornly resisted every other

A snarl as of some maddened ami

from Tonti, and with a spring he had
clutched his adversary by the throat
with one hand. while with his up
raised iron member he was about to
deal blow that no human frame could
resist, when he was quickly seized and
torn away by two warriors, who, hear
ing the excited tones of their chieftain,
had entered in time to save him.
The comte stood gasping, feeling his
throat where the imprint of Tonti's
fingers were visible.
Tonti's breast heaved from the sud
den fierce exertion, and as he stood
held by each out-stretched arm, his
figure tense from the effort to free
himself, he flung defiance at his ad-

ran lightly to Tonti.
"Ah! M. Tonti," she exclaimed in an
alarmed tone, what shall we do?
Why have you a second time provoked
this man and reused the hatred of one
who cannot stoop too low to gain his
ends? Had you been calm he might
have been prevailed upon TO allow
you to go unmolested. Now he will

The corporation during the year paid

ings They state the former storage
capacity as eighty million gallons while
the increased storage facilities increases
the capacity to a total of fourteen mill
lions, or enough to supply the needs Of
the village for $50 days in case no water

of raising the dam the other five feet
proposed to be $4,000, which they advise
to be done.

boy well known here, William r. Davis,
son of Druggist c. c. Davis of Walpole
He is chief bridge designer in the state

wreck has been bought from the Cuban
government by a salvage company having
it's headquarters in Washington and by
agreement the work must be completed
by April 10, 1906, Mr.. Davis has prepared
plans, in consultation with other engin-
GERS, for a coffer-dam 354 feet in diameter,
a description of which has been published

be sunk around the wreck and the water

BrIdQe,

Good Progress on the Connecticut River
Bridge.
The Connecticut river steel bridge is
fast assuming its permanent appearance.
During the past week the Orders for the
roadway have been put in place the whole
width of the river, hanging from the
great arch, and a part of the flooring Is
in use in a temporary manner. None of
the short bridge that extends the road
way over the tracks of the Rutland rail-
road has been put in place, the efforts Of
the Workmen being devoted to the main
arch and bridge. The progress of the
past two weeks has been much In con-
trast with any other two weeks during
its construction. One of the engineers in
charge of the work estimates that the
structure will average to need repainting
every three years, that the planking of
the roadway will last about the same
length of time. and that the cost will be
about $500 for both, making an average
cost of maintenance, aside from any ex-
traordinary repairs, of $500 per year.
