Charles was so pleasant and accommodating to everyone, so gentle and quiet in his demeanor that no one of his acquaintances suspected any trouble with him. But it turns out that those nearest to him had noticed something that was not right for some time. He had several spells when he seemed to be gieatly unsettled. Upon coming out of one of those spells bad remarked that it meant either Brattle-btro or suicide for him. This put his friends somewhat on their guard and when he came home Tuesday night his friends and the doctor watched him closely, but after the doctor had left the house, supposing him to be asleep, Charles, wuh a maniac's cunning, crept past his brother, procured the deadly weapon, fled like lightning to the attic and committed the fatal deed.

In the fraction of a second the life of a fine young man was cut short. The funeral services were held at the home of his parents on Saturday afternoon. There was a great crowd in attendance. The religious services were conducted by Rev. H.

J. Kilbourn, pastor of the Congregational church in Bradford, and Rev. H. T. Barnard, pastor of the Congregational church at Barton Landing, but formerly of the church here.

Campbell's residence, and James Austin's residence are the latest additions to the local telephone exchange. That new telephone in the Journal office has been a great convenience this week, as Editor Wells went off down country with'tbe key to the front door in his pocket. Ic was rather hard on the help to be obliged to patronize "the Sunday entrance" at the rear of the building and harder yet on patrons standing around outside in the cold, waiting to pay up; then the office has a new clerk, and perhaps the editor didn't want visitors running in to bother her, be all these things as they may, there is no doubt about the editor's holding the key to the situation.

Pinkham HELPED MRS. G00DEN. LITTER TO MM. PINKHAM NO. 12,733 "I am very grateful to you for your kindness and the interest you have taken in me, and truly believe your medicines and advice are worth more to a woman than all the doctors in the world.

For years I had female troubles and did nothing for them. Of course I became no better and finally broke down entirely. My troubles began with inflammation and hemorrhages from the kidneys, then inflammation, congestion and falling of the womb and inflammation of ovaries. I underwent local treatment every day for some time; then after nearly two months the doctor gave me permission to go back to work. I went back, but in less than a week was compelled to give tip and go to bed.

On breaking down the second time, I decided to let doctors and their medicine alone and try your remedies. Before the first bottle was gone I felt the effects of it. Three bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and a package of her Sanative Wash did me more good than all the doctors' treatments and medicine.
