State Forest Begun.
Tract of Land Purchased in P1ainfield for
EXDerimeuts


The State board of agriculture and
forestry has Just completed the purchase
OF Vermont's first state forest. It is in
Plainheld. The plot consists of 40 acres,

other parts of the State. henewlv pur-
chased tract is particularly well adapt
ed for the use of State Forester Halves

The back aches at times with a
dull, indescribable feeling. making
you weary and restless; piercing
pains shoot across tie region of the

rub or apply a plaster to the back
in this condition. You cannot reach
the cause. Exchange the bad back
for a new and stronger one. Follow
the example. of this Edgefeld citi-
zen:

willing that my name should be
used as an endorser of Doan's kid

was also a disorder of the kidneys
which caused me additional annoy

Would Fill a Volume.

The good things that have been
said, and that n can. still hear,
about the late Mr.. j.. f. Dorm would
fill a large volume. Indeed, we have
never known any man who passed
his entire life in the private walks,
eschewing publicity in every form,
whose death was so universally de-
plored or about whom so many
kind and affectionate remarks We're
made. Whenever or wherever MI.
Dorn's name is mentioned beauti-
full tributes can be heard. And one
thing is especially noticeable,t that in
nearly every eulogy one hears some
kind act, some special service, is
referred to. His life was one of SER
vice, a life worthy of emulation by
every young man in the county.

A Literal Distinction.

Bishop Potter was known as
quite a wit, and often took delight
in turning his humor loose on bis
associates, hut here is an instance
where the joke, although quite un-
intentional, was on the bishop. He
was to preach alta certain parish in
the. West in the evening, and the
congregation was not little amused
at the somewhat ambiguous an
nouncemeant of their worthy pastor.
who said:
Remember our special service
next Sunday afternoon. The Lord
will be with us,during the morning
services, and Bishop Potter in the
evening"
