John Adams, in his published diary, speaking of his visit to Staff ford in 1771, gives long account of his talk with David Orcutt, an old acquaintance, who moved to Stafford from Bridgewater, Mass. thirty years before. David Orcutt built 3. grist mill and dam near where now stands the Granite mill dam, the logs of which it was built yet remaining, and under the water of the present pond.

The old BedIan1.

Bethlehem prOnounced Bedlam), the Lopdon lunatic asylum, was originally founded in 1247 as a priory, but is spoken of as a hospital for iunatics iD l472, and when the church was de spoiled 1t was granted to the city of London as such an asylum. At one time the wretched inmates were exhtb- ited to the public like so many wild beasts, as Pepys notes in his diary and Hogarth shows in one of his sketches. Patients that were harmless or half cured were given badges and released to beg on the streets. Edgar in "King Lear" impersonates one of these wan dering TOm-o'- -Bedlams.

TESTED AND PROVEN
There is a Heap of Solace in Being Able to Depend Upon Well-Earned Reputation

For months Press readers have seen the constant expression of praise for Doan's Kidney Pills, and read about the good work they have done in this locality. What other remedy ever produced such convincing proof of | merit?
 James Mallon, Fox Hill, Rockville, Conn.,, says: "You may continue to use my recommendation of Doan's Kidney Pills given for publication in 19O6.. can only add that kidney trouble has never bothered me since I used this remedy. Doan's Kidney Pills are entitled to the full credit for my cure. I had kidney trouble and backache. The pains in my loins were so severe that was hardly able to work; in fact; on several occasions I was obliged to lay off. It was diff cult for 1iie to stoop When I heard of Doan's Kidney Pills obtained a supply and it did not take them long to relieve my trouble. !"

Daatness Cannot ha d.mr.

Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu- tional remedies Deafness is caused by an ln- famed condition of the mucous lining Of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect heaF- ing, and when 1t is entirely closed, DeafnesS is the result, and unless the Inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever which is nothing but an lnfiamed condition oi the mucOuS Surfaces.
