Then too there was DIR. Star years |
between 1850 and 1861 a very good
physician, but he talked too much,
which injured him greatly in his
practice. At one time he was In Un-
Gle Enoch's store expatiating on some
wonderful cure he had performed,
when Mrs. Strong, very worthy and
intelligent woman who happened to
be in the store at the time making
some purchases, overheard the doc
tor and turning she said, "Doctor,
do not doubt the truth of your state
ment but [ had much rather hear
somebody else tell it," This gave the
doctor a quietus.
Barton being in such close pro2l-
mity to Glover the physicians of the
former townhad quite wide practice
among the families OF Glover,
especially DR.. Masta and old DR.. Skln
ner. / say ''old DR.. Skinner" to dis
tinguish him from his con, Dick, who
succeeded him in the practice. A
few old-timers may still remember
DIR. Joseph Masta. DR.. Skinner con-
tlnued in practice many years later.
He was a gentleman in every sense OF
the word and a most exemplary cl6l-
zen. Having crossed the boundary
line between the two towns, m gnu
incidentally mention nr. Pierce ana
DR.. Adams, eminent physicians or
Barton in their time. DR.. Adams was
especially noted for his kindness TO
the poor. He gave to them the same
consideration that he did the rlcn.
But in making up his bill he charged
according to the length of the
PATIENTS purse. The rich had TO pay
dear for being sick while with the
poor he was lenient. One instance
characteristic of the man L nave
heard my moeher relate was that OF
poor girl who had to depend entirely
on herself for livelihood, whom the
doctor attended through long slc8-
ness of many weeks. After her re-
covery she asked the doctor TOT MS
bill, remarking that she would pay him
as fast as she could earn the money
The doctor asked her what wages she
earned a week when working out,
and her reply was, mine shillings."
''Then give me nine shillings," SAID
DIR. Adams, "and you and l Will be
even." 1 agine the poor girls graf
itude! After moving to Montpelier
he charged Gov. Paine, for much less
services, $1,000.
These were the men Of the saddle
bags who dispensed pills and caicne''
prescribed blisters and oleeolhg "
country folk of Barton and Glover III
those early days.

Mortified Summer Conferences.
Plans for the twenty fifth season OF
the Northheld Conference and sum-
mer schools are already nearing
completion. Four separate confer
ences and two summer schools are
scheduled, in addition to the work in
the two Mortified schools, whose
commandments have always at
tracted many friends and former stu
dents. During the summer season at
Mount Hermon, particular stress will
be laid upon the Bible Study courses.
given by such men as Prof. IL. B,
Wright of Yale, Rev. F. B. Meyer and
DR.. G. Campbell Morgan of England.
A new departure will be the classes
in Y. M. @. A. work led by Prof.
James McConaugy, A. E. Roberts
and other able teachers.
The first of the gatherings, the
Students Conference, June % to July
7, has always bean largely attended
by young men from nearly every
eastern college, the number OF
delegates last year being nearly
thousand, Yale, who held separate
conference last season, will again be
in line with a large delegation. Dur
ing the afternoons the intercollegiate to-
bali games and the tennis tournament
furnish recreation for participant and
observer. On the Fourth, with the
speeches, the college yells and the
gigantic bonfire, the excitement runs
high, but always keeping within the
bounds of the expression of true pa
triotism. From July 9 to 10 young
women will take the place or the
college boys. Following their con-
ference come the two Summer Schools,
one to teach practical Sunday school
methods, from July 20 to 81, and the
other for the Women's Missionary
Societies of the United States ano
Canada, July % to 80. During Au'
gust, from the I'd to the 18th, comes
the General Conference for Christian
Workers, established by D. L. Moody
1t attracts immense crowds from
every state in the Union and from
England, in addition to being rally
ing ground for missionaries. During
the following month the post Con-
ference addresses and the series Of
lectures at the Mortified schools
with their opportunity for closer study
will hold many of the sum mar visitors

IT'S THE SKIN, NOT THE BLOOD.
Costly Error Of Treatment Of
Skin Dis asses by Internal
NOssrums When the Skin


Alone should BE Healed.
If you slash your finger do you
drink liniment to cure it? No, you
apply the lotion to the wound, yet
people are treating skin diseases con-
stant'y by dosing the stomach.
Even some doctors-and doctors of
good reputation, too still try this
old fashioned method of curing &C.
although science has shown
conclusively that all such diseases as
eczema, psoriasis and salt rheum
result from the action CT germs
which feed on the cuticle and multiply
where the resistance is weakest.
Until few years ago many doctors
thought that SKIN diseases originated
with the blood. What gave color to
this belief was the manner in which
smallpox, measles and scarlet fever
develop. OF course, the breaking out
of these ailments is only symptom
of the disease and science has shown
that the people vino suffer with real
skin diseases, like eczema, are not
sick at all in other respects.
The application of the germ theory
proves that skin diseases are caused
py germs which lodge in the gin.
To cure the skin direct, through
the skin, DIR. Decatur d. Donris COM
pounded oil OF wlntergreen and other
remedial agents into liquid called
D D. D. Prescription. He gave this
&c his patients and found that the
eczema germs were eradicated while
tie healthy skin was LOU injured at
all.
Later DR.. Dennis was prevailed
upon to allow private company in
Chicago to put up this remedy in
bottles.
While DIR. Dennis nas no direct con-
nection with the company selling the
| prescription he endorsed the remedy
| and sanctioned the sale of D. D. d.
| through drug stores.
| Great credit is due to physicians
| VINO recommend this remedy-and
there are many such physicians
| when they can make so much larger
fees by writing out their own pre-
scriptions.
We vouch for D. D. D. Prescription
| and D. D. D. soap and recommend
these TO all sufferers from Skin
| diseases.

Canal Done in Eight Years-Taft.
Secretary Taft's trip to Ohio this
week has some political significance,
as he is now recognized as an active
candidate for the republican presl-
Dental nomination, and will seek the
support of his own state, which Sena-
tor Foraker also hopes to get In
speech at Cincinnati, Taft said he ex-
pected the Panama canal would be
completed within eight years, possibly
earlier.
More Insurance Litigation.
The election of directors OF the
New York Life Insurance company

ticket won over that of the policy
holders, has got into the courts
through the arrest of three men iden-
titled with the policyholders' cam
paign, who are charged with having
conspired to prevent a fair election.
The counter charge is that the cleo
ton was dishonest and unfair.
