The Hammers of He'll"
BARRE Times. J

A Brattleboro man who, while driving
automobiles, had been concerned in two
accidents. in one of which a woman was
killed, was again at the wheel when his
car overturned last Saturday, causing Sc
rious, perhaps fatal, injuries to one man
and injuring several others less seriously.
There were several witnesses of the last
accident, and one of them remarked
shortly before the accident that Here
comes Pierce like the hammers of hell
referring TO the excessive speed with
which Pierce's car was being driven.
This looks like case in which the state
automobile department would be amply
justified in refusing an operators Ii

RHEUMATISM
LEAVES YOU FOREVER
Deep Seated Uric Acid Deposits Are Dis
solved and the Rheumatic Poison
Starts to Leave the System Within
Twenty-four Hours.

Every druggist in this county is authorized
to say to every rheumatic sufferer that if two
bottles of Allenrhu, the sure conqueror of
swollen joints and do away with even the
slightest twinge of rheumatic pain, he will
gladly return your money without comment.
Allenrhu has been tried and tested for years,
and really marvellous results have been accom-
plIshed in the most severe cases where the
suffering and agony was intense and piteous
and where the patient was helpless.
Mr.. James Fl. Allen, the discoverer of
Allenrhu, who for many years suffered the
torments of acute rheumatism, desires all suf
ferers to know that he does not want a cent
of anyone's money unless Alienrhu decisively
"onquers this worst of all diseases, and he has
instructed every druggist to guarantee it in
every instance.-Ady

PILES
Can't BE Cured from the Outside.

Can't BE Cured from the UutSlue'
External treatments seldom cure Piles.
Nor do surgical operations.
The cause is inside-bad circulation.
The blood is stagnant, the veins habby.
The bowel walls are weak, the parts
almost dead.
To quickly and safely rid yourself of
piles you must free the circulatiOn-send
a fresh current through the stagnant pools.
Internal treatment is the one safe method.
Ointments and cutting won't do it.
J. S. Leonhardt, NJ. D., a specialist, set
at work some years ago to find a real in
ternal remedy for piles. He succeeded.
He named his prescription HEM-ROID,
and tried it in 1000 cases before he was
satisfied. Now HEM-ROID is sold by
druggists everywhere under guarantee. 1t
is a harmless tablet, easy to take, and can
always be found at the Brattleboro Drug
Co. and druggists everywhere, who will
gladly refund the purchase price to any
dissatisfied customer.-Adv.

The increase in the number Of aliena-

times of imitation, equal suffrage, high

ferent to attend rally.

MT. Charles Morgan of 405 Union Street, Bridgeport, Tells to the public 8 re- markable story of how CINOT helped him.

Among many testimonials picked at random none is of more interest than MT. Morgan's because he had been a sufferer so long with bilious spells which would make him have attacks of dizziness and blindness and owing to this trouble he had several narrow escapes from Ser1- ous accidents while on the street and at work and we feel that there are so many people today suffering this way who can be relieved that it will be welcome news to know that CINOT will restore their health. MT. Morgan says:
 1T have been subject to bilious at- tacks for years and would have fever and dizzy spells and at times would have blind staggers. I felt worn out and tired with dull headaches ana pains right behind my right shoulder blade. My skin was yellow and blu ish looking and the whites of my eyes were about the color of lemon pee. and today owing to three bottles o1 CINOT that have taken I am ir perfect health and all the above symptoms have left me"

ARMENIANS AND
 TURKS FIGHTING

Constantinople, April 15-Messages received here from the Aintab area, in northern Syria. indicate that the Turks and Armenians are engaged in heavy fighting there, the Armentans occupying the American nlasSaon buildings. This news has aroused un- easiness regarding the position or the 13 American relief workers at Aintab.
 The despatches that have come through have been fragmentary, be- lated and frequently garbled- They are believed to indicate, however, that a French relief expedition entered Aintab late in March but left again. Consequently the few remain1ne French troops are apparently insuffi- cient in numbers. the belief being that caly the Senegalese remained in Ain tab.
