R Tuesday, June 11—Franklin is ex- cited by the appwmcr’ there of a powerfully built, repulsive looking man who inhabits the woods and re- sembles John the Baptist in his sim- plicity of dress as he wears nothing but an old quilt wrapped about him. He is supposed to subsist on the milk of the cows he can handle and is a veritable terror to the women and chil- dren and indeed the greater part of the men of the community. The local officials show their usual enterprise and intelligence by showing nothing about him and declining to make any effort to secure him though he is a source of constant alarm to the ma- jority of the timid. The idea of a party from this city to go for and capture him is being discussed. Christ church, in Westerly, was al- most totally destroyed, Saturday night by a fire which is variously attributed to lightning, incendiarism, and acci- dent.

C.; and I have been taking your wonderful fruit medicine, “Fruit- a-tives” for two years. No other medi- cine answered my requirements like yours.

C. C. REMINGTON. Now, you might think that any medicine which is strong enough to move the bowels when they are para- lyzed, would be too powerful to be used by a person suffering with ordinary Constipation.
