Another Landmark Gone.

Last Thursday night at 11.30 the
villagers were reused from their slumbers
by the ringing Of the church bells and the
cry of fire The fire was discovered
around the chimney of Charles Powers
paint shop and before enough men could
reach it, it had gained such Roadway
that all their efforts were used to pro-
tect the neighboring buildings. Situated
as it was at the point of the common
with houses in close proximity it was
indeed bad place for fire, with no
other protection than this village affords.
Fortunately the air was very STILL with
the snow falling heavily, and the roofs of
all the houses were well covered with
snow. The paint shop was long, story
and a half building and burned to the
ground in less than two hours. 1t will
probably never be known just how the
fire started but presumably from an
over-heated stovepipe or chimney. Mr..
Powers had been at work in the shop
that evening. and and when he left for
home left his fire just as he usually had.
Mr.. Powers lost some of his ladders, and
his stock of paints ID oil, which was
insured for 500 The building was
insured for $500.
This building was built many years
ago by Charles B. Folsom, for a black
smith shop, his own home being behind
it. with carriage shop adjoining, In the
early years of its history, even before 1t
was completed, the voters of Concord
met in it, to vote whether the Town Hall
should be built in the village, or at Con
cord Corner, previous town meetings
having been held at the Corner. The
voters decided to build the town hall in
the village, where it stood until destroy
ed by fire in 1905 and was replaced with
the present structure After this build
ing ceased to be used as a blacksmith
shop, it was purchased by Trout Brook
Creamery Co., when the company first
organized. and was put in fine shape and
used for several years as creamery, or
until they moved to their present loca-
ton. For the past few years it had been
used by Mr. Powers as a paint shop,
where he was very comfortably located.

Mrs. FreeIove Elizabeth Douglas
Mace, a former resident of Concord, will
celebrate her Tooth birthday tomorrow
at Woodstock, where her home has been
since leaving here. Mrs. Mace was born
at Grantham, N. H., Feb. 13, 1903, the
eldest of six children born to John and
Mehitable Elliott Douglas. Her brothers
and sisters are all deceased. The last
one William Douglas, life long resi-
dent of Concord, died Dec. "a, 1907.
She remembers distinctly of moving with
her parents in an OK team from Gran
than to New York, where her early life
was spent. She was married at Hart
land, Dec. /, 1928. to Nathan Mace of
Massachusetts. Six children were born
to them, three dying in infancy. Two
daughters, Elizabeth and Clarissa, and
a son, Nathan, reached maturity. The
son, is the only one now living. After
the death of her husband in 1867 Mrs.
Mace made her home with her brother,
William Douglas, with whom she came
to Concord and where she lived for 30
years. She has nine grandchildren and
six great grandchildren, In her life

One of the most frequent and annoying
conditions that beset humanity is
Catarrh of the Bile Ducts. There are
severallittle ducts leading from the Liver
and Gall Bladder that unite into one
main or Common Bile Duct" which
carries the bile and other fluid into the
intestines. When there is a Catarrhal
condition of these ducts the whole system
is affected and all kinds of mean feelings
are experienced Ordinary liver pills and
powders fail to relieve this condition. An
eminent physician, a professor in a
Columbus, Ohio, Medical College, wrote
the prescription from which Rydale's
Liver Tablets are made, and they never
fail to relieve this very common condi-
ton. For Biliousness and Torpid Liver
they are without an equal. One dose
convinces, and that dose is free. Write
for sample. Rydale Remedy Co., New
