I wish to say a word about the senator ship for the South part of the county, a candidate for which will be nominated by the Hepuolicau convention next Tuesday, Although the farmers are largely in tho majority, they have not had a senator for years, while the professions have been well represented. During the past U years, Brattleboro has had two lawyers, one physician, one manufacturer, and wo might say two, countlngSmith, although Guilford would probably claim him; Whitingham has also sent a lawyer. We have no fault to find with any of these; each did the THE RACE IS WON over to good health and tho system ren dered Impervious to disease when tho blood is puro and the liver nctivo. For tho liver is tha sontinol which jiermits or forbids the germs of disease to enter the circulation of tho blood. To a congested, torpid and dis eased liver can bo traced many dangerous diseases affecting various organs. PIERCE Guaran tees CURE. I was taken sick with congestion of tho liver and tho doctors could give me no relief, but after using five bottles of "Discovery," I re gained my hcnlth and I am now b well man. I weighed IS) pounds before taken sick, and I wns reduced to 130 pounds In sixty days time. For any ono suf fering with liver troublo as I was, I would advise them to use tho Golden Medical Dis covery " at once, before Mb. J. Bently. it is too late. Randolph, Cattaraugus Co., If. X. best he could : but it seems as if the men that cast the majority of the Hepublican votes in this county, and who represent the bone, sinew, muscle, and a good share of the brains of Vermont, ought to have at least a smell at the position this year, With the best of feeling toward the can didates who are pushing themselves for this position, we believe that no better one can bo found, nor oue who will fill the position of senator better, than Hugh M. Adams of Marlboro. Mr. Adams Is a farmer and practical business man. He has represented the town twice in the legislature and filled various town olllcos, and no one can say that ho has ever been found wanting in any of these positions. A man of sterling Integrity, he would be an honor to the county. Another reason why it should be given to Marlboro is the fact that she has never been found want ing when the time for counting votes comes round. W. E. Kino. Druggist Chapln and family of Brattle boro are spending a month at F, A. Whit ney's farm, Two of our townspeople tried the fish in the reservoir pond the other night, and when they got ready to go home they found a bridle but no horse. The team was found by C. W. Snow the next morning in his yard. NEWFANE. Wetiif-(ln)'N Convention. The convention of the new Sunday school association of Windham county held here on Wednesday, was very satisfactory from various points of view. It was delightful to see the Congregational church filled al most to overflowing. The several denomi nations represented sent many young folks as well as other folks. There were ad dresses that stirred thought, singing that inspired, and if all the problems presented for discussion were not solved at once, there Is no doubt that some good results will follow their presentation. Newfane will be glad to welcome the convention again another year. It is pleasant to have just such large gatherings of wide-awake, beaming, intelligent, earnest-hearted work ers come together here. The convention is officially reported elsewhere in this pa per. There was a picturesqueness about the groups of delegates and visitors brought up by the common where they met "for chatting and resting in the shade. They were a "good looking" set, and many nice turn-outs went to and fro. By all means let the convention come again to the centre of the county ! The Carol Serv Ice. The children's carol service last Sunday afforded interesting variety. Floral decora tions were arranced with taste. The arch, with the motto "Feed my lambs," was of bright ground work.and effectively trimmed with laurel. There were responsive exer cises, and besides singing of the choir led by Mr. Miller, the children rendered several songs with Miss Sherman as organist. Children also gave recitations. Briefness was a pleasant characteristic of the exer cises. Although there were many numbers on the program, nothing was tiresome lie cause nothing was too long. All will do well to remember the letter which was read from the publishers of the printed form of service which was used. Many copies of similar services have been freely distributed for years, and considering their usefulness it is suggested that the next collection in the Sunday school should be sent in recognition of benefits conferred by such programs. Let the collection be a generous one. F. L. Fish of Vergennes has spent a week at his father's. Among former residents who visited this place Tuesday were Mrs. I. N.
