BETTER BABIES.

The crusade for better babies has
spread from coast to coast, and taken
firm hold of American Mothers. Few
women realize how much the i'll
health of the mother influences the
unborn child, both physically and
mentally. Women who suffer from
mysterious pains, bac kache, nervous
ness, mental depression, headaches,
etc, should rely on Lydia E. Pink

roots and herbs, which for nearly 40
years has been the standard remedy
for these ailments

Told a Terrible Story.

Rev. Ernest Yarrow of Van, Turkey,
preached III the Congregational church
Sunday. Mr.. Yarrow is graduate OF
Mt. Hermon and has been in the
American colony at Van, Turkey, sew
eral years. He told the terrible story
of Turkish persecution which began
/ last spring. His story was of the deci-
sion of the Turkish government to de-
stroy the Christians, of the seiee and
bOmbardment of Van and destruction
of much of the American mission: the
arrival OF relief from the Russians and
the departure of the Turks: of the
| labor of caring for the thousands o.
refugees which crowded to the mission
for protection; of the terrible scourge
caused by bad sanitary conditions and
finally when he, his wife and other
! heads of the missions were sick, the
! Russians were recalled. All knew that
| the Turks would return ami cause q
massacre. 1t was then that the mission
| was abandoned and under care of the
| Red Cross officers the missionaries
escaped to Russia
| Mrs. usher, wife of d.. c. d. Us
! sher, former resident of Northiiell
and student of the seminary. died a
! Titlis. The other missionaries finally
arrived III the United States few
weeks ago. Mr.. Yarrow stated that
none of the Turkish atrocities of which
we have read in the papers have been
overdrawn, but that far worse has
been the truth. His talk of personal
experiences sank deep into the heart
of all his hearers. In the evening he
told of his mission work in Van Mr..
Yarrow feelingly recalled his baptism
and uniting with this church Is years
ago when a student at Hermon and the
spiritual power that he received here
has always been an inspiration TO him.

WARDSBORO CENTER.
E. c. Wilder's House Destroyed.

h.
The dwelling house and horse barn
of f. C. Wilder were destroyed by fire
early Sunday evening. The main part
of the house was a two-story structure,
and the ell included the w0odshed and
horse barn. Evidently the fire started
in the loft of the barn, but the cause
is unknown. There was no hope of
saving the building from the first, and
only part of the furniture was saved.
The loss is partly covered by insurance.
The alarm, which was given over the
telephone lines, brought a large force
of men to the place and they rendered
good service in saving the buildings of
d. c. Dexter on the opposite side of
the road, also Mr. Wilder s larger
barn, which was some distance away
from the burning buildings.
There was absolutely no wind. If
the fire had occurred during the high
wind of Saturday night several other
families would have been made home
less. 1t is a matter of deep regret that
the most prominent house in the vii
lage is laid in ashes. Mr.. Wilder and
family have the sympathy of all.
