Everyone In Barre and vicinity had
a vague notion Tuesday morning dur
ing the thunder shower that lightning
struck somewhere not many miles
away, and in the course of events the
fact that lightning dismantled the
chimney of Eli King's house in lower
Graniteville has come to light. U the
time Mrs. King's attention was ab
sorbed in working over a washtub. The
crash of the first brick caused her to
look towards the ceiling just in time
to avert the tumbling chimney which
came through the lightly constructed
kitchen roof and into the tub. Mr.
King escaped injury and warned her
12 year-old daughter to move in time
to prevent any harm being sustained
by her.

gette blouse and hat to match. Mrai.d
Mrs. nil lev left, last n'glit for a ten
days' trip to Boston and Hartford.
Thev will make their future home in

The Barre friend and acquaintances
of Stanley 11. Averill, grandson of Mr
and Mrs. I M. Averill of this city, will
rejoice with him in the winning of the
high honor attributed to bim in the
Music Trade Indicator, in the article
reprinted below, a great compliment to
Ins salesmanship: Baltimore, Md
June 9. The honors of a friendly.
though spirited, battle in salesman
ship held last month by the Knabe
warerooms, Inc., this city, were carried
otT by Stanley II. Averill, who went
over the top $2,000 ahead of anv
salesman in the concern's Washington
or local organization. Considerable
credit is due Averill as he worked
his way up from the ranks of outside
salesman and has been in the pisin
industry only one year. He was given
chance on tha floor two months go
and showed his worth by fighting every
minute for the prize. Mr. Averill, who
ia 23 years old, served aa an artillery
man in the 2jih division and was over
seas 19 months. He fought on seven)
fronts and saw action in three major
engagements. Averill entered the trade
in Springfield, Mass., but later accept
ed a position with the Knabe ware
rooms, Inc., and has met with success
on every side since his arrival here.
He is a native of Barre, Vt."
At a regular meeting of Barre post
No. 10, of the American Legion, it was
voted last evening that the Legion
club house on Church street be opened
for public inspection next Wednesday
evening, June 18. This opening will
first be made at 2:. 10 and may be In
spected by anyone from then until 5
o'clock in the afternoon. In the eve
ning again it will be opened from 7
until 0 and from 0 until 12 oclock sll
friends of the Legion msy enjoy a com
plimentary dance in the Legion dance
hall. This opening was settled up.'n
since the work of remodelling the old
schoolhouse into a comfortable club
house is practically completed. Car
penter and painters have finished
work, plnmliers have practically com
pleted all connections, and tdectrician
are adding the ornamental fixtures.
Five Legion members who have been
doing the clean-up work nights and
any spare time also consider the house
in excellent condition for inspection.
Practically all credit for the uccessf:il
remodelling of this old achoolliouse into
one of the most attractive Legion club
houses in the state is due to William
A. Murray, now a memler of the gran
ite firm of Novelli 4 Calcagni, hut for
merly local manager of the Harrison
(ranite Co. Mr. Murray, a veteran of
the Spanish-American war, went to the
trouble of furnishing detailed draw
ings from day to day of the various
changes. The public ia invited in par
ticular to note the design and different
features of the remodelling, all of
which are in accordance with Mr. Mm
rave designs. The ingenuity of Con
tractor A. B. Lane and Fred L. Pag
in adapting all things to new uses can
hardly be overlooked in this work, tor
much expense was averted in this manner.
MAKING CHILDREN EAT
Nothing is ever gained by forcing a
child to eat when it refuses food.
Make sure that nothing is being eaten
between meals to destroy the natural
appetite, and if your growing child
does not have a healthful craving for
good, honest food at mealtimes there
ia something the matter. Threats of
punishment if the cliild does not eat
will not correct the difficulty.
A fitful-appetite in a growing child,
t-DpeciulIy if the patient is pale, lan
guid, nervous, irritable, and without
ambition, usually means that the blood
is thin. A non-alcoholic tonic such as
Dr.-Williams' Pink Pill Is demanded.
During her 'teens a girl lays the
foundation for her future health. Lack
of blood at this time may rob her of
robust, healthy womanhood. It is of
the greatest importance to administer
to girls who grow pale and weak a
safe tonic, and Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
meet every requirement of the most
careful mother. They make the blood
rich and red and it carries renewed
health and strength to every "part of
the body. .
Write to-day to the Dr. Williams
Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y., for
the free booklet, "Building. Up the
Blood." Your own druggist sells Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills, or they will be
sent by mail, postpaid, on receipt of
price, 60 cents per box. Adv.
