IS LINES CRIPPLED.
Telephone Company Had Bad Results
from the Storm.

The most brilliant electrical display
seen here in several years came last
night with heavy thundershower which
broke around the city shortly before s
o'clock. II was accompanied by a heavy
rain and latterly BY sharp peais of thun-
der.
The Vermont Telephone & Telegraph
Co. was put TO considerable ineonveni-
ence in repairing damage resulting from
the storm. although the loss in dollars
win not be large. Some thirty five lines,
comprising over two hundred stations,
were crippled by lightning and all the
forenoon the company had gangs of
linemen out locating trouble. At the
telephone offices to-day it was said that
the lines would be back in commission
before night.
So far as could be learned, the Con-
Lighting Co.'S. lines were only
slightly affected by the storm. 1t was
thought, however, that few trans
formers might have been blown out,
and an inspection of the power and light
ing lines was ordered this morning.

FRAIL, SlCKLY CHILD
Restored to Health by Who'll
Letter to Mothers.

Anxious mothers often wonder why
their children are SO pale, thin and
nervous and have SO little appetite.
For the benefit of such mothers in
this vicinity We publish the following
letter.
j. Edmund Miller, New Haven,
Conn, says: "My little daughter, ever
since her birth, had been frail and
sickly, and was a constant source Of
worriment. Several months ago we
commenced to give her Vinol. l i'm
medately noted an improvement in
her health and appearance. gave
her three bottles of Vinol, and from
the good it has done her | can truly
gay it will do all you claim"
This Child's recovery was due to
the combined action of the medicinal
clements extracted from Gods livers,
combined with the bood-making
and strengthening properties OF
tonic iron, which are contained in
Vinol
Vinol will build up and strengthen
delicate children, old people and the
weak, rundown and debilitated. We
return the money in every case where
II fails.
