Nearly everybody is obliged more or
less to take a laxative. There are of
course a few exceptions. A great many
people also need occasionally to take
tonic. Probably few households exist
that do not make use of tonics and
laxatives.
The remedy Peruna is a laxative
tonic. 1t not only operates as a gentle
laxative, but also as a tonic.
The benefit derived from such a
remedy is a great deal more in the
prevention of disease than in the cure.
After a person has really become sick,
either with an acute or chronic all
ment, the rule should be to employ q
physician, or some one who can give the
case his personal attention. But long be-
fore this happens the person will complain
of this or that symptom, which is not Sc

was in Salisbury, now a part of
Franklin. When Franklin became a
town, in 1928, it took parts Of Sails
bury, Mortified, Andover and San
bornton into its territory. Tradition
says that when Daniel Webster was
born the ~claering around his fathers
cabin was the furtherest north in New
Hampshire. There vas only a bride
path to the place, and the houre was
located so as to face an old mill In
the hollow. Trees that have stood
for centuries are still there, but moth
ing remains of the old mill but the
dam. When Daniel Webster was
three years Of age, his father, Capt.
Ezekiel Webster. moved to what is
known as the Elm Farm at Webster
Place. This is now a part of the New
Hampshire Orphans Home. the ex
terio and interior having been pre-
served intact. Abigail Chapter, D. A..
r., has had installed in front of the
house a bowlder with a bronze mark
er. The birthplace and the Elms are
the only two places now standing in
Franklin in which Daniel Webster
lived. The old Webster tavern,
the street from the Elms, which was
once his home. has been removed, to
give way to more modern farm
houses.
After Webster's father had moved
to the Elms, the old house which the
family had formerly occupied, was
moved across the road and attached
to a big two-storv farm house as an
l.. The cellar of the old house was
filled in and the location was for
gotten. In October, 1910, at a meet
ing in the office of Chief Justice
Frank n. Parsons of the New Hamp-
shire supreme court, in this city, the
Webster Birthplace Association was
organized. The organization obtained
an appropriation of $500 from the
legislature and this. with other, vol
untarv contributions, enabled the as
s~ociation to purchase the site of
Webster's birthplace and to restore
the house nearly to it's original ap,
p%earance. The house was moved back
and placed upon its original founda-
ton which was fortunately found.
The old fireplace in the kitchen or
living room. with its big iron crane,
was rebuilt and the house itself re-
stored to its original state inside
and outside as much as possible.
Even the old well in the yard was re-
together with it's old-fashiOn-
ed sweep and oaken bucket. Funds
will be collected to make it possible
to install a caretaker and to keep
the house in good condition. i
