E. A. Baldwin.

There died at Judd's Mills in Stan
stead Thursday morning, a prominent
citizen of the Eastern Townships, in
the person of E. A. Baldwin. He
died of trichinosis. 1t is believed that
the disease was contracted by eating
the meat of bear which was OBJ
tanned by Mr.. Baldwin week before
his death.
Trichina spiralis, a small spiral
worm, sometimes existing in the
flesh of hogs and other animals, is a
parasite which, when such meat is in
sufficiently cooked, attacks the eater,
multiplies rapidly and becomes i'm
bedded in the muscles, causing fever
and intense stuff ering, ofttimes termin-
ating fatally.
Mr.. Baldwin was born at Baldwin's
Mills, township of Barnston, but lived
in Stanstead most of his life, having
milling and creamery interests at
Judd's Mills for many years. His
tragic passing has caused profound
sorrow among his many friends and
acquaintances,w who deeply sympathize
with the sorely afflicted family. DIR.
MacKay of Sherbrooke and DR.. J. G.
Colby Of Stanstead were in consulta-
ton with DR.. R. o. Ross, the attend
ing physician Monday, all agreeing
upon the diagnosis of the case.

Where Rayberry Candles Come From

1t was the women of bingham, that
quaint old Massachusetts town, that
first brought down from their attics
their grandmothers' old candle molds
and began making the sweet smelling
green bayberry candles for a few ap-
preciative people who wanted them to
burn in homes furnished in antiques.
The women of charming old Deerfield,
in the same state, shortly followed suit,
and then the housewives of Cape Cod
saw their opportunity, all of them U.s.
ing the molds that had been in the
towns for generations.
