Sudden Death of Gilbert p. Abbott.

Gilbert p Abbott died suddenly at his
home, about three miles easterly from
South Paris, Monday, Feb. "a. He had
gone to the barn to feed his stock, and
as he was gone longer than usual, and
had not been we'll of late, Mrs. Abbott
went to the barn to look after him. He
was not in the barn floor or on the hay
NOW, but opening the door of the tie-up
she found his lifeless body lying on the
floor. He had fed the pigs from pail
which he carried out, and set the pail
down, but got no further. Mrs. Abbott
was alone, and the men in the immediate
neighborhood were all away from home,
but neighbors from some little distance
were summoned by telephone, and quick
ly arrived. No help could be rendered
him, as death had evidently been in
Simultaneous. He had been considerably
troubled with rheumatism, and OF late
had had trouble with his heart, so that
his sudden death is easily understood.
Mr.. Abbott was 65 years of age, and
had lived in town since early manhood.
While of a quiet disposition, and not
conspicuous in any public affairs, he was
highly respected, and leaves many sim
cere friends to mourn his loss. He is
survived by wife, who was Fannie E.
Bowker, but leaves no children, brother
or sister.
The funeral Wednesday afternoon was
attended by Rev. j. Fl. Little. Inter
ment in Riverside Cemetery.

A LONG LIFE.
HOW TO CONSERVE ENERGY AND PRO-
LONG LIFE.

HOW TO CONSERVE ENERGY AND PRO-
LONG LIFE.
The time comes to every one when the
life forces begin to fail. 1t is a little
harder to climb hill or walk up stairs.
Exercise is taken less vigorously or
abandoned, and we feel that the end of
active service is drawing near.
1t is more than probable that we have
been over-driving the machine of the
body which will give out like any
machine if overtaxed, and we should i'm
mediately take steps to change the gear,
build up the strength and restore the life
forces. To this end nothing equals our
delicious cod liver and iron preparation,
Vinol, which is far superior to all other
tones and cod liver preparations because
it is made by scientific, extractive, con-
centrating process from fresh Gods
livers, combining with peptonate OF iron
all the medicinal, healing, bodybuilding
elements OF cod liver oil, but no oil.
As body builder and strength creator
for old people, delicate children, weak,
rundown persons, after sickness, and
for chronic coughs, colds, bronchitis aud
all throat and lung troubles, Vinol is
unexcelled.
Try it on our offer to return your
money If it fails. F. A. Shurtleff & Co.,
Druggists, South Paris, Maine.

The article relating 10 acceptance Of
legacy of VIM. 81. bennett for the care
of his lot in Pine Grove Cemetery was
the last in the warrant. Mr.. Denuett's
bequest was $500. Mr.. Wright present
ed the matter, and moved that it be &C.
cepted, and that per cent interest be
allowed. The motion was carried.
The moderator was voted $500 for his
services, and the meeting adjourned at a
quarter past three.
The best of feeling prevailed through
out the meeting, and though there was
quite an amount of discussion first and
last, it was all good tempered.
The appropriations foot up S21, 527 so.
This is about $500 less than last year.
There is to be added $500 raised at a
special meeting for snow bills, but $4,000
for high school building will not have to
be raised this year. On the basis of last
years valuation, the Democrat is going
to predict tax rate of about 10 mills.

corporation to be 1858, 920. an increase
over last year of nearly $4,000. The

Friends of Commander Robert Z.
Peary, the Arctic explorer, state that he
has quietly bought up islands in Casco
Bay until he has the title of 16 of them.
1t is said that, when he returns from the
Arctic again he will devote his time to
the development of these islands, which
are worth large sum. On one of them,
Basket Island, the plan is to erect a
large summer hotel of the exclusive
kind. Another plan is to raise Esqui-
maux dogs. In fact, he has already
gone into this business to some extent.
He now has about so of these animals
on the different islands. For the pups
he easily gets $50, and 80 the business is
applying one. He has the finest speci-
mems of these animals in this country.

Editor Democrat:
Your issue of this date is before me.
Surely the citizens of Paris are to be
congratulated, having reached the goal
held up to view, 10, these many years,
namely to free the town from debt.
As to the trusts it has taken on, note
the Bray fund remains intact and secure,
performing the beneficial service desired
by its donor; but alas, the sacred trust
accepted of its old townsman Croker
"is not" and submit, in view of the
treatment of that fund, whether the
towns obligations will be fully met till
that fund under it's original title is re-
stored by the town.
