preparation, made chiefly from the ma
tive herbs found on the lower ranges Of

of that town are about fifteen feet under
water. The lower portions of Portland
and East Portland We understand are
also flooded. 1t is great advantage to
live in town where the ebb and flow
can always be measured in advance and
depended upon to go no higher.
