Grief, Excessive Anxiety, or Prolonged
Study will produce infrmty in the Nervous
System. In proportion as the strength of that
system is expended upon the mind in troubled
thought, so are the organs of digestion, as
similation and nutrition rendered inactive and
sluggish in proportion the system becomes
infrm. Every individual has some one organ
weaker than the rest, and this s always the
first to suffer during nervous prostration; for
example, aflieting news sometimes causes
total suspension of the muscular action of the
heart, when the patient is debilitated, pro-
ducing sudden h9morrhage and death. No
doubt any longer remains of the practicablity
of restoring the nervous system, and through
the nerves the muscles of the impaired organs.
Fellows Compound Syrup Of Hypophosphites
has been proved to possess such power in
numerous instances. 1t will impart strength
to overcome trouble or atiiiction. Persons
who are accustomed to look upon the dark
side and who see no pleasure in living, on
using this Syrup soon learn to value and en-
JOY life, and those who study dee ply or dur
ing long hours will find in the Syrup promo
ter of the power of endurance in the brain.

Mr.. Walter Hatch died at his home in this
city. Saturday morning about o'clock, in
the forty-third year of his age. His death
was not unexpected, as he has been gradually
sinking for about two months, with hardly a
hope of his recovery. No man in the State
was better known to the travelling public. He
first began rairoading as brakeman and bag
gage master on the Eastern Railroad, in 1914,
running between Portland and Boston. He
came on to the Kennebec & Portland Railroad
in March, ISL, as baggage master on the
passenger train. He was promoted to con-
ductor. which position he held from July,
1852, to September, 1865, and was General
Superinte ndent of the new corporation, Port
land Kennebec Railroad, from September,
1865, to February, 1869. Ill health then COM
PEELED him to relinquish business, and he spent
two winters in Florida, with the hope of final
restoration of health. But it was evident that
his disease, consumption. was deeply seated,
and the most etfectual remedies and the kind
est care were all of no avail, He passed away
quietly and gently, leaving behind loving
wife and most interesting family of children.
Mr.. Hatch's popularity as man, and his re-
lations for so many years with the public, has
endeared him to a large circle of friends who
will sincerely mourn his departure.
