Obituary.

| Again has death entered our midst and
taken this time one of the Oldest and a
much respected friend and neighbor, Mrs,
Martha King, who died Jan. 25. The im-
mediate cause of her death was grippe,
together with old age. If she had lived
one month longer, she would have been
80 years old. She retained her faculties
in wonderful degree, being an intelli-
gent and interesting companion and
friend down to the last years OF her life.
A great sorrow came to her in the
death of her only daughter, Eta, wife
of Henry Martin of Williamstown, which
occurred in 1886, and later the death of
her husband. But calmly she journeyed
on, still active and interested in the al
fairs of the home of her son, George
King with whom she lived, sharing in
the love of her children and grandchil-
dren and one great -grandchild
Mrs King was next to the oldest mem
Der of the Methodist church in Plainfeld,
where for so many years she attended
when able to do so. She is survived by
her son and family and many other rela-
tives. !.

COUNTY CLERK

How Vinol Helped Him

So many cases like this are coming Il
our attention that we are publishing this
letter for the benefit of Barre people
who are in Mr.. Kelly's condition. Read

clerk, and became rundown, no appetite,

tiscment Of Vinol aud at once tried IL. In
a short time my appetite improved, my
strength increased, and | felt better in
every way" S. w. Kelly.
The reason Vinol is so successful in
such cases is because it is an unequallcd
tonic body builder, combining native
wine, the oldest and most famous tonics
known to medicine.
So strong is our faith in Vinol that we
offer to return the purchasers money in
every case if Vinol should fail to give
results.

WHAT TO DO FOR
ITCHING SKINS

Eczema, ringHorm and other itching.
burning skin eruptions are so easily
made worse by improper treatment that
one has TO be very careful. There is one
method, however. that you need not hes
itate to use, even on baby's tender
slin-that IL, the resinol treatment.
Resinol is the prescription OF Balti-
moro doctor, put up in the form of res
mol ointment and resinol soap. This
proved SO remarkably successful that
thousands OF other physicians have been
prescribing IL constantly for 90 years.
Resinol stops itching instantly, and
almost always heals the eruption quick
" and at little cost. Resinol ointment
and resinol soap can be bought at any
druggists.

GRANVILLE VISITED BY
DISASTROUS FIRE
Nearly Block of the Business Sec
ton Wiped Out-Fire Fighting
Apparatus Failed to Work.

Nearly an entire block along the east
side of Main street in Granville was
wiped out by fire Wednesday morn
ing. The fire started in the pool hall,
frame building. The gas engine
used by the city being out of commits
sion, the only means of combating
the flames was a bucket brigade. The
fire communicated to the buildings on
either side and within a few minutes
time was raging in the Farmers Cash
Store on the corner, the confectionery
store adjoining, the drug store, and
the postoffice building. Here the
flames were checked, the next building
occupied by the Granville Herald hav-
ing a sheet iron covering was all that
saved the balance Of the business
houses on that side of the street from
destruction. The postoffice records
and valuable mail were removed be-
fore the building was destroyed. At
the Granville Herald plant practically
everything that could be removed was
taken from the building, and the loss
from damaged stock occasioned there
by will be considerable. Only favor
ing winds prevented a general holo-
caust. The loss in most instances was
covered by insurance. The Farmers
Cash Store carried no insurance what
ever. Already steps are being taken
to rebuild the burned section.
