months l suffered from dull pains in my
kidneys and lameness and soreness
across my loins. Headaches were COM
mon and the kidney secretions caused
me considerable annoyance. Doan's Kid
ney Pills were finally recommended to
me and l procured a supply at F. II.
Holdens Drug Store. The contents Of
the first box did me so much good that
| continued taking them until my aches
and pains disappeared and my kidneys
became normal"
The above statement was given Sep
TENDER rs, 1908 and when Mrs. Robin
son was interviewed some time ago, she
said: II sim think highly Of Doan's
Kindney Pills and confirm my former en-
dorsement OF them"
For sale by all dealers. Price so cents.

The New Athletic Field.

The new athletic field on Williams ter
race has been graded and we'll seeded
down. The grass is now four or five
inches high over the whole field, and
makes an excellent indication of what
the field is to be in that locality. The
ground chosen by the special committee
of the board of village trustees is the
east end of the lot of 40 acres bought
last spring by the village for public
park and playground purposes. The re-
mainder OF the tract of land, which is
well covered with a growth of fine trees,
has been Nndisturbed, and no expense
will be put to that for the present. The
location chosen for athletics is a level
portion just west OF the residence of
Almon l. Bolles. a part of what was for
merly known as Williams Orchard. The
committee do not feel 1t will be wise
for the boys to use the field at present,
until the grass roots are more firmly
set and the ground harder, but it will
probably be used later in the season.

The work of replacing the steel bridge
across the Connecticut at this place has
taken the toll of two lives of workmen
during the week. Last Friday morning
a workman for the contractors, the Bos-
ton Bridge Works, fell from the struc-
ture near the New Hampshire end, a
distance of about q feet to the rocks,
and was so seriously injured that he
died in the hospital Saturday evening.
His name was Thomas S. Peterson, of
Cambridge, Mass. With his wife, he
had been living on Rockingham street
with Mr.. and Mrs. George Exner while
he had been employed here. Burial took
place in Cambridge Monday.
The second accident occurred Wednes-
day afternoon about SIS O'Clock, when
Alfred MERCER, a young man of 20
years, whose home was in Fitchburg
and who worked for the bridge depart
ment of the Boston & Maine railroad,
was struck by a falling brace, while
working with a gang taking down the
old bridge. One arm was severed and
fell into the river while the body
struck the rocks 35 feet below where he
was standing His death was almost in
Simultaneous. He was unmarried, living
with his parents and sisters in Fitch
burg.
The contract of the railroad with the
bridge company provides that the rail-
road shall remove the old structure. In
that way two separate gangs of work.
men are employed, and the deaths hap
pen to be one from each gang.
