been $4,000. The barn, located across
the road, was saved after hard effort
by neighbors and Chief Heney and one
fireman from the Barre fire depart

city shortly after the fire broke out
at $3.50 a. IN.
Chief Heney secured permission from
the city authorities and made a quick
run to the farm with the light chemical
motor truck, arriving in time to do
effective work. The contents of the
chemical tanks on the truck were used
and at one time it seemed that the fire
was under control, but the flames broke
out anew when the chemicals became
exhausted and thet whole house was
soon enveloped in flames There was
little water available for fighting the
fire but bucket brigades did what thew
could TO check the advance. Mean /.

CAN NOT DOUBT
UNUSUAL Merit
IN THIS PRAISE
West Virginia Woman De
Ncided to Try Trutona and
Thereby Gained Relief.

MoRGANToWN, w. w., April ~
After reading the statement -of Mrs.
Barbara Ammons, well.known won.
an OF Morgantown, one can not doubt
the fact-that Trutona is truly medi.
cine of unusual merit, and one worthy
OF trial by all suffering humanity.
Mrs. Ammons is IS years Of age and
resides at 179 Chestnut street in this
city, and according to her own words
Trutona has effected remarkable re.
lief in her case.
yes, Trutona has worked wonders
for me-" Mrs. Ammons said the other
day. "For the past seven or eight
years have suffered with rheumatism
and varicose veins, in both my Lego
near the ankles. My limbs were bad.
Fly swollen clear to my knees and T
could not. walk without help. No one
can realize what I suffered. My appe-
tite wasn't very good and at times /
could eat nothing at all. was con-
tinually annoyed with constipation,
and had to be taking laxatiyes all or
the time. It was hard for me to sleep
at night and my rest was usually brok-
en-"
81 was told that my case was hope
less but decided to try Trutona, any
way. After taking, the first bottle Of
the perfect tonic, started getting bet.
ter, and 1 want to tell that to the
world. My limbs have healed up now.
and I'm so happy that they don't pain
me as before. sleep fine and can eat
anything care for and nothing hurts
me. In fact, Trutona has done such
wonders in my case that feel like a
different woman, and want others to
know what this medicine has done for
me-"
Trutona's healthful action reaches
every portion Of the body, and per.
forms Its work faithfully and efficient.
ly, not only as It did in Mrs.. Ammons'
case, but in Thousands OF other similar
cases. Trutona rebuilds diseased
nerves and tissues, creates health,
appetite and assists in the assimila.
ttion and digestion Of the food.
