scientific school OF medicine in the
world-that OF Paris-published this
recipe as solid panacea for small

unfailing as fate, and conquers in
every instance. IL is harmless when
taken by a well person. II will also

Rev S. w. eidweII 1912 Years Old.

Rev. Sedgwick w. Bidwell, aged 102
years, entertained friends at his home
in East Middlebury last Friday evening.
Mr.. Bidwell, who is said to be the
oldest Methodist minister in the United
States and perhaps in the world, was
born in Starksboro December 7, 1909,
and for 70 years has been preacher Of
the Gospel. His faculties are still re-
tanned to remarkable degree and his
bodily health is excellent. His wonder
full memory goes back three generations
and he recalls the rear of the canon at
the battle of Plattsburg.
The venerable preacher was evidently
destined for the ministry for after his
first day in school, when he was only
five years old, invited his playmates to
gather about a stump while he preached
to them. At the age of seven years
he won prize of sweetmeats for COM
hitting a selection to memory.
The Rev. Mr.. Bidwel's parents were
English and among the first settlers in
Starksboro. At the age of Is years his
school days appeared to be over and for
two wears thereafter he taught school.
One year later he attended Hinesburg
Acad envy and in the same year was
admitted to the Methodist church. In
the year 1884 he was given license to
preach. He was then "a years old, and
for over three quarters of a century he
has been serving his church. During
this time he has preached in % differ
ent towns in Vermont and New York
state.
In the year 1888 he married Miss
Evalne L. Smith of Monkton, and upon
her death married LUCINDA Aurora
Upper of Middlebury.
During his long career as a minister
he has officiated at more than $50 flu
nerals and over 400 weddings, having
performed about a dozen during the
past year. On several occasions he has
been called upon to perform the cere-
mony of marriage when he received
only bushel of potatoes or corn as fee.
On his Tooth anniversary, the Rev.
Mr.. Bidwell was asked to preach al
the Methodist church at East Middle
bury and he delivered brief address
to the full satisfaction of a large con-
gregation.

Some Red Cross Seal Fiqures.

Few people have any conception of
the magnitude of the Red Cross Christ
mas Seal campaign. The following
figures will show what gigantic move
ment this is. Already $4,000, 900 seals
have been printed, and practically that
entire number distributed to agents.
Probably Is, 900, 900 more will be need
ed. Advertising circulars, posters,
cards, etc., to the number of several
million have also been distributed. 1t
is estimated that the army of paid and
volunteer workers engaged in selling
the seals will number over 1000
The advertising and publicity donated to
the campaign will amount to several
hundred thousand dollars. Every eff
fort is being put forth to sell 100, 900, 900
seals, or about one for every man,
woman and child in the United States.

Church Damaged by Fire

Fire Sunday night Quilted the vestry
and altar of st. Alphonsus' church at
Pittsford Mills and before the flames
were brought under control the main
part of the church edifice was badly
damaged by water. The fire was dis
covered about o'clock by a family
living near the building and it was con-
fined to the vestry which is in the rear
of the church. The main part of the
church was so filled with smoke that it
was impossible to get to the bell rope to
sound the alarm. 1t is not known just
how the fire started and two probable
causes have been advanced. One is
that the altar boys forgot to take the
embers from the incense burner and
another is that the fire caught from a
stove in the vestry. A benediction
service was held in the church at 4:40
O'Clock and the janitor did not leave the
building until about 6.
The entire vestry and the main altar
were destroyed. All the vestments
were burned and in addition a valuable
painting of 1.-The Crucifxion" was con-
sumed. Some statuary and all but one
of the stations of the cross were saved.
The Rev. j. A. Lynch says no accurate
estimate of the loss can be given yet,
but he thinks it will not be over SIS, 900,
partially covered by insurance. The
church, which is of brick and stone, was
built by the late Rev. Charles Boylan in
1860. The property, enlarged and i'm
proved, is now valued at $35, 200.
