DYSPEPSIA ON THE DECLINE.
seaver's Dyspepsia Tablets Cure Forty
nine Cases out of Fifty,

Why anyone in Brattleboro or Will
mington should continue to suffer with in
digestion when a box OF SEAVER'S DYS-
PERSIA TABLETS, will cure, is certain
ly a mystery. w. F. Root and c. H.
Parlnalee have been selling SEAVER'S
DYSPEPSIA TABLETS for some time,
and have learned from actual experience
in their own stores just what SEAVER'S
FAMOUS DYSPEPSIA TABLETS will
do, and If you inquire OF W. F. Root or
C. III. Parmalee, they will tell you they
never knew a remedy to prove so decid-
eddy beneficial in the treatment Of ind-
gestion, dyspepsia, palpitation, sleepless-
ness and other forms of stomach trouble
1t certainly ought to give you conf
dence when you know that every soc
box of SEAVER'S DYSPEPSIA TAB
LET'S contains 20 days treatment, and
at the end of that time II you are not
decidedly benefited all you need to do
is to go back to the dealer and get
your money SEAVERS DYSPEPSIA
TABLETS are sold right on their own
merits They cure indigestion simply by
toning up the stomach and digestive
organs so that the food will assimilate
and give strength to the system just
as nature intended. SEAVERS DYS-
PERSIA TABLETS are such good
nerve tonic, too. Just try box and
see II 1t don't give you new energy, new
ambition and new courage to carry out
your plans and daily work. II 1t doesn't
your money back.

fire and smoke entirely destroyed the
stock. The next store south, Richardson
Brothers, was entirely flooded with
water, but no effort was made to remove
the stock. In the next store, the jew
elry store of Collins & Floyd, the entire
stock was removed to the store Of ]. j.
Fenton & Co., with a very slight loss,
which was renumerated for literally,
because of the excellent care given, when
the adjusters arrived yesterday. Next
south was the dining room of Hotel
Windham, and then the Office and read
ing room on the corner, none of which
were reached by the fire, but damage is
principally by water. The property was
as a whole well covered by insurance,
and the adjusters are making good head
way in settling with the claimants.
Only the best and most hopeful feeling
exists, there being many features in con-
nection with II that will tend to the
proba BILE improvement of Bellows Falls
in the end, although at the present it
seems very disastrous
The origin is very mysterious The
fire evidently started under the stage in
Union hall. Company f had occupied
the hall the evening before until late
hour in drilling, some members staying
until nearly midnight. 1t Is possible 1t
originated from a cigar stub or lighted
match left to shoulder but the actual
fact will never be known.
The same ground covered by the
buildings involved in this fire was burned
over March IA, 1860 and a second time
July 49, 1868. The buildings at both
times were small wooden buildings and
for those years.
