To the Editor Of the Press

BY private letters received from Washing
ton, We are informed that there is very large
number of sick and wounded Maine soldiers
in Washington and vicinity, and that the
Maine Agency is in need of hospital stores of
all kinds, more especially the articles of jel-
lies, farina and stimulants. viii our good
people in the cities and country towns, see
that this call does not pass by unheeded. Any
person or persons wishing to send TO any in
dividual in the hospital, or TO any hospital,
can have the privilege of doing so-or If they
prefer they may send direct TO the Maine
Agency at Washington. e. II. DAVIS.

LOWELL. Mass. July IL. 1885,.
Messrs. HUI 4 GoOdei:-An expe Renee OF many
years In the gas fitting business has often suggested
to me the great value of an improvement thereby
the pressure of gas might be regulated at the poin'
of consumption. Many and fruitle-s attempts have
fro time to time been made TO place regulators at
the meter. Experience has shown that all such at
tempts have proved failures have also seeu and
used in my business nearly all the improve
ments in burners. wherein that which you have
compIished has been attempted. but always failed.
After a careful examination and thorough test of
your Gas Regnlsfors--which attached immedi-
atey under each burner part of the gas fixture
am fully convinced that our improvement l. de-
cded success the Eighth improved in brightness and
in illuminating power while the expense ed to
the is full 30 per cent The combustion is
perfect hence the improvement must be adopted NJ

A SPLENDID INKsTAND.-H. L. Davis, So
Exchange street, has placed upon our table
"Oliyer's Patent Inkstand," which decidedly
is very good improvement on others we
have seen. 1t is beautiful in torn, and just
the article every body will like who uses the
pen. A very neat rubber valve, easily hand
led, not touching the ink, presses down the
air and raises the ink into a tube convenient
for the pen. Raise the valve and the ink set
ties down. We have never seen more beau
tiful or useful inkstand. 1t combines all the
good qualities necessary for such an article,
aud we are at a loss to discover how IL can be
improved.
