RHEUMATISM DRIVEN FROM
 THE BLOOD.
A Remedy Which Assists Nature Produces a Cure Which Is Per-
 manent as This Case Proves.

Every sufferer from rheumatism wants to be cured and to stay cured.
 The prospect of the return of the same old rheumatism every year is not attractive to anybody has gone through the one siege. Most treatments aim simply to keep down" the rheumatic poisons in the blood. The tonic treat went with Dr VIII ams' Pink Pills has proved by hundreds of cures that it builds up the blood to point that enables 1t to cast out these poisons through the regular channels of ex- erection, the bowels, kidneys and the skin. When this is done the rheu- matism is permanently cured and as long as the blood is kept pure and rich the patient will be immune from at- Jacks of rheumatism.
 Mrs W. II. Amburg is the wife of a prosperous farmer living on k. F. D. No. 3, Lancaster, N. H. and about four miles from that city. She owes her recovery from rheumatism to this treatment and her statement should in- terest every sufferer.
 ". have no idea what brought on the rheumatism" she says, but 1 suffered agonies from it for about two years and for five months of that time my condition was very serious. l had severe pains through my hips, in my limbs and in the small of my back so that was unable.to stand up straight. l felt weak and Respondent and lost in weight.
 Two Lancaster doctors treated me but l didn't get any better ana as l had seen Dr Williams Pink Pills men, tioned in our home newspaper, l stopped using all other medicines and began taking them. After had taken the first box l felt that they were benefting me and after a few more boxes had been used was en- tirely free from the rheumatism. This was two years ago and have had no return of the trouble. l have recom- mended Dr Williams Pink Pills to my friends and know of one case in which they brought great benefit"
 With the fact in mind that the rheu- matism is in the blood, it will readily be seen how useless it is to try to cure it by rubbing liniments on the skin. External applications may give tenn porary relief from pain htt to cure rheumatism you must treat it through the blood. Dr Williams Pink Pills have cured more cases of rheumatism than any otl er prescription and no sufferer should allow any prejudice to stand in the way of giving these pills a thorough trial. .y
 Dr Williams Pink Pills are sold by all druggists, or will be mailed, post paid, on receipt of price, 5G cents per box six boxes for S250, by the Dr Williams Medicine Co.,, Schenectady, M V

ELECTION MA TIERS.

The people are more interested than common over the town election. Last fall we had no election of town officers as the envelopes did not appear and it was questioned by some whether the selectmen and other officers had right to hold over without a declsion from the Superior court. No steps were taken to get decision. Some of the others wished to nominate officers this fall that did not hold over. An independ- ent caucus was called for September 23, and attended by from 15 to 20. The following were put in nomination re- gardless of party:
 Assessor, Frank Volsard.
 Board of Relief, William Curtiss, Howard Hopkins.
 Selectmen, William Welton, Sher- man Rowland.
 Grand Juror, John Chappius.
 Constable, Henry KatOn.
 Registrar of Voters, R. F. Ashman.
 School Visitor, A. s. Tanner.
 Auditor, c. F. Perkins.
 Collector of Town Taxes, J. F. Angevine.
 Tree Warden, William Barrett.
 The old board of selectmen attended in a body. Now the independents claim partial victory as the republi- cans nominated for first selectman the same man that is up for first on the independent ticket. There is no per sonal feeling on the part of of the inde- pendent voters. Some of them feel that they were not quite fairly treated at the spring caucus and, that the old board ot selectmen should have had an order from the court which would have made all their acts legal without any question. The democrats hold their caucus on September 29. All voters are quite interested to see how the votes come off on October 5.
 A. s. Tanner and Fred Hawley were summoned to Litchfeld for October 6, to enroll as jurors.
