The Best Guaranty of Merit
Is Open Publicity.

Every bottle of DIR. Perce's world
famed medicines leaving the great labo-
ratory at Buffalo, n. Y, has printed
upon its wrapper all the ingredients
entering into its composition. This fact
alone places DIR. Pierces Family Medi-
cines IN a class all by themselves. They
cannot be classed with patent or secret
medicines because they are neither. This
is why so many unprecedented physicians
prescribe them and recommend them to
their patients. They know what they
are composed of, and that the ingredients
are those endorsed by the most eminent
medical authorities.
The further fact that neither DIR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, the
great stomach tonic. liver invigorator,
heart regulator and blood purifier. nor his
"Favorite Prescription for weak, over
worked, broken down, nervous women,
contains any alcohol, also entities them
to place all by themselves
Many years ago, DR.. Pierce discovered
that chemically pure glycerine, of proper
strength, is better solvent and preserv-
ative of the medicinal principles resid-
Ing IN our Indigenous, or native, medi-
cinal plants than is alcohol: and. further
more, that it possesses valua bic medicinal
properties of its own, being demulcent,
nutrltlve, antiseptic, and most efficient
antiferment
Neither of the above medicines con-
tains alcohol, or any harmful, habit
forming drug, as will be seen from a
glance at the formula printed on each
bottle wrapper. They are safe to use and
potent to cure.
Not only do physicians prescribe the
above. non-secret medicines largely, but
the most intelligent people employ them
people who would not think of using
the ordinary patent, or secret medicines.
Every ingredient entering into the COM
position of DR.. Perce's medicines has
the strongest kind of an endorsement
from leading medical writer's of the
several schools of practice. No other
medicines put up for like purposes has
any such professional endorsement.
DR.. Pierce'S Pleasant Pellets cure con-
stipation. Constipation is the cause of
many diseases. Ours the cause and you
cure the disease. One "Pellet" is a gentle
laxative. and two a mild cathartic. Drug
gists sell them, and nothing is "just as
good" Easy to take as candy.

OBITUARY.

! Clara, wife of Alvah Morrison of Mont
| vile. died March 10, aged p years, months
and 20 days. Mrs. Morrison had been in
| her usual health, and the morning before
| her death performed her usual household
duties, and even visited her sick brother
VIM. Jackson, who lives just across the
road from her late home. After her return
from her brothers she prepared the break
fast for her hens and went to the stable
loft to feed them. Soon after her husband
went to feed his COWS and found her all in
a heap on the hay near nest, where it is
presumed she was looking for eggs Mr..
Morrison quickly called his next door
neighbor, Ira Cram, but both being some
what feeble they were unable to re-
move her. But Harry Jordan, younger
man who works for Mr.. Cram and boards
at the Morrison home, easily took her in
his arms, carried her down the stable stairs.
into the house and laid her on the bed. Dr.
Holt of Liberty, was telephoned for, aud
while awaiting his arrival the neighboring
housewives did all in their power to revive
her. She spoke but once during her brief
illness, and that was to say ''no" to the in
quiry if she suffered any pain. Soon she
was taken with commissions and gradually
sank until the end was like falling into a
peaceful sleep. The burial took place the
following Sunday afternoon in Mt Repose
cemetery. The sermon was by Rev. T. K.
Pentecost; conductor, E. j. Hatch; bear
ers, Amos B. Drawn, Ira d. Cram, Frank
Mayhew and Fred Plummer. beautiful
flowers were contributed by her neice, Mrs.
Sanborn, of Belfast; Mrs. Skidmore, Miss
Blanche Cram, Mrs. johnson, Mrs. Batch
elder, Mrs DR.. Holt and Mrs. Mitchell of
Liberty. The deceased was born in Mont
vile, where Eli Jackson recently lived, and
was the daughter of George and Hannah
(ftowell) jackson. She leaves a husband,
three grandsons, c. A. Wing, of Rockport,
Austin Wing, of Montville and Eugene
Perry, who has resided with his grand par
ents four brothers, VIM. Jackson of Mont
vile, Joel Jackson of Liberty, Leander
jackson of Pittsfield and Eli Jackson of
Newport, besides many nephews and
neices. She was an exemplary Christian,
and member of the Methodist church of
this town. In his sermon Rev. T. r. Pen
tecost referred to a 26 years acquaintance
with her, and stated that sin her lifetime
she and her husband had fed more strang-
ers than any other family had done in the
town of Montville." A good woman has
gone to her reward. The whole community
mourns as for mother, for she was all |
that to everybody in sorrow or distress.

clean and orderly cities, trained as he
was by experience to think of a great
metropolis as an ordered array of civic
life the changing, rafting, shouting
city seemed like an evil dream The
sidewalks were cluttered with mer-
chandise, the streets We're rough cobble
stones or fissured blocks, the buildings
were heaped together, old and new,
squalid and splendid, as though they
mad been tipped out in wantonncss by
a builder drunk with power. The men
in the hotel lobby seemed all to be
talking at once, and those who We're
tlred of talking were smoking silently
i'll comfortless chairs watching the
people passing in the streets.
fine rain was falling when the ship
was berthed, but by the time the
stranger walked out bathed and
dressed, to "see the city" with his two
guides, the stars We're winking in the
sky and the city was wonderland.
Some cities "close up" at night and
''go home" San Francisco it seemed,
never closed up and never went home.
They walked down into a subterra-
mean cafe where men and women sat
smoking cigarettes and drinking wine
while an orchestra sighed gently
through the sentimental melody of
waltz song. They shot up in a cage to
the top of the Call building, that
seemed to be pillowing its head in the
star dust, and looked down on swing
ing blaze of lights that swept around
them for miles over the hills into the
night. The wholesome smell of ''the
good brown earth and the old remem-
bered intoxication of the sea were in
the air and the waters Of the bay
swept softly under great belts of lights
and shadows where the splendid ships
sat sleeping that came from all parts
of the seven seas. The crack of s.
/ Chinese tom-tom split the air in a
strange second of inexpicable silence
as the stranger sucked the air through
his closed lips in amazement at it all
and his eyes by some instinct followed
+ the sound until they focused the swing
ing, smoking, colored lanterns of
Chinatown that clustered in oriental
remoteness beneath a haze of cloud
lifting with the drowsy scent of opium.
1t seemed to the stranger like a
dream city, the fairy tales of all the
children that ever We're writ large in
stone and brick and marble and the
gorgeous splendor of a million lights:
the spectacular dream of some master
playwright, set down on those rolling
hills for men and women to frolic and
love and laugh in all day long and all
night, too.
It's Gods country, isn't it ?" his two
friends said as he stood silently by the
open window with no words to frame
his thoughts. isn't it that?'
I've no ready-made comments
about me-" he answered slowly. "Only
you're the best hearted people in the
world and all this is just now a dream
to me. Aladdin and the genii of good
fortune have given me a wonderful
lamp and this is my magic city that l
have ordered upon your hills, and I've
lost the lamp when 1 was Sleep walking
and the city will stand firm forever" ="
But the old lamp has been found again
since that evening and exchanged for
a new lamp of bitterness and great
woe, and the city that Aladdin dreamed
into reality is blackened and lying in
the dust.

THE REAL ESTATE PULSE

Following last weeks lull in real
estate transactions, caused by the
bending of all energies toward the re-
lief of san Francisco, an extraordinary
degree of activity is noticeable Mt the
beginning of this week. This condi-
ton might he accounted for by
pressure to make up for lost time last
week, but a new element in the situa'
tion is noted by some dealers in realty.
The inflow of homeless people from
San Francisco has only fairly COM
menced, but the influence of this in
fusion is felt already. A large propor-
ton of the newcomers have money in
the hot vaults of the San Francisco
savings banks, and many have expec-
tations of money realized from insur-
ance policies. The class thus situated,
of which the advance guard is here,
must be provided with homes and some
with business locations.
The inquiries now in progress by
these new home and business seekers
point to a largely increased demand
for accommodation as the inpour in
creases. The fact that there is a
noticeable increase already in inquiries
of this character, caused by the early
arrivals from San Francisco leaves no
doubt that real estate business will be
exceptionally active in the coming
weeks and months.
