A TRINITY Of EVILS.
Cured by Dr.. Kennedy's New Medicine Alter
 Other Treatment Had Failed.

MT. Martin Montgomery, of silvara, Penn., formerly of Roxbury, N. Y., writing to Dr. David Kennedy, of Kennedy Row, said:
 "Your NEW medicine, Ca1-cura Solvent, is immense. It cured me of liver and kid- ney troubles, and rheumatism, after lot of weary dosing with things that did no good. It is a record breaker and no mls- take"
 As in Mir. Montgomery's case, rheuma- tism is often, indeed almost always, com- plicated with kidney and liver trouble. It is because Cal-cura Solvent acts on the kid neys and liver and at the same time expels uric acid from the blood, that it is such reliable remedy for rheumatism and the att tendant disorders. It cures by removing the cause, therefore, the cure is permanent, safe and sure.
 Write to the Cal-cura Company, Kennedy Row, Rondout, N. Y., for a free sample bottle.
 Remember: Only one Dr. David Ken- nedy ever lived in Rondout, City of Kings ton NY, and be sure you get his 1eo and latest medicine, which is sold only in $1.00 bottles.

THE BLIZZARD IN NEW PRESTON.

No storm here since February, 1899, has equalled that o: Wednesday and Thursday of last week. in fail of snow and wind accompanying. No mail was received here from Wednesday even- ing till Friday noon. R. F. D. carriers failed from Tuesday, to make their entire trips. The schoolhouse on New Preston Hill was closed the entire week on account of the inability of the teacher to get there. No acci dents or extreme exposures have been reported, for which we are thankful. Your correspondent thinks this storm must refute and silence those propb- cts who declared in December the hardest part of the winter was past. This thought occurred to the writer several times last Thursday when the wind was blowing 50 knots an hour. All the card and dancing parties ar ranged for the week had to be post poned to the present week.

A MILD EXCITEMENT,

| A MILD EXCITEMENT.
 A mild excitement prevailed here,
 last week, over the prospect of spe- cial election being called by request of 27 petitioners, ia this town, to fill out the list of justices of peace. Four of 10 elected last November have failed
 to qualify by taking the oath of office. All the justices on this side of the town have qualified but for some un- known 1eason the other side of Wash ington feel they have n)G sufficient numbers to administer the law in an official manner. The strangest part
 of the affair seems to be that the
 Washington district seems to feel there is not men there enough who are capable of filling the high office, so the writer is inform d, and party in this district has been approached with a view of intruding into this district of the town to fill out the ticket for
 Washington and fill out the requisite number of qualified candidates, which has never been done here before. The
 writer has been tol that party here is so enthusiastic in the matter of this special election as to guarantee to the
 town all the expense of the election,
 which will be a matter upwards of S10O. The bee huns warmly in his hat. Let us hope the Healing act passed present State Legislature last week, extending the time for justices to qualify from January 10 to Mach 10, may calm these anxious minds and fill up this void which has seemed 50 de- plorable. No man should accept an office he does not expect to fill, and a heavier fine than now is legal should be imposed on those who fail to quali- fy. Did the six votes in this district and the 2l in Washington realize the labor and expense of the special cleo tion when they signed the petition to have it? If called, their only excuse must be that it comes from an individual office seek CTS pocketinstead of the Town Treas ury. The easiest way out is for all elected to take their oath of office for the term ensuing and settle several knotty queries which will arise over the special election if carried out and AS does seem to considerable number of the legal voters that we are already we'll favored in having six out of the
 10 elected, willing to qualify and enter | upon the duties of the oftice.. .

Fat is of great account to a baby ; that is why babies are fat. If your baby is scrawny, Scott's E m u ion is what he wants. The healthy baby stores as fat what it does not need immediately for bone and m Us cle. Fat babies are happy they do not cry they are rich |; their fat is l a i'd up for time of need. They are happy because they are comfortable. The fat sur- rounds their little nerves and cushions them. When they are scrawny tn ose nerves are hurt at every ungentle uc h. They delight in Scott's Emul- sion. It is as sweet as wholesome to them.

Respect for Old Age,

One often observes the impatie
with which some young people Of the
kind usually called "high-spirited" re-
gard the little oddities Of those older
with whom they come in contact. In
deed, 1t Is with great effort that this
impatience Is rendered unapparent, and
often scarcely that.
There is a respect which youth owes
to age which must not be lost sight of,
and, of course, there Is also respect
which age owes to youth. However,
youth is the time of growth and self
restraint, and it Is quite easy to in
dulge the little foibles of those 80 and
40 years older than ourselves by re-
membering they are older and that
charity or love must be exercised to-
ward everyone whom we meet-young
and old alike.
Bad-tempered people used to be re-
garded as something out of the ordi-
nary long ago, but nowadays we know
that self-control is the one thing which
makes for progression, and that we
must live up to our ideals and our be-
lief in what is the highest and best,
wha atever the cost.
Regard for the oddities of those old
er than ourselves is part Of that doc
trine, and must be lived up to.-Phila-
delphia Enquirer.
