Granite Operations at Clark's Island.

correspondent writes US that there are
now no stone cutters on the island, cutting
stone for the Hartford post office, with full
proportions of contingent labor, making the
number employed now about $50 men. The
force of cutters will probably be increased
this fall to $50 and will remain at tina: num-
Der during the winter.
The stone is very handsome, free from
flaws and defects, and the general opinion is
that the quarry must rank first in the country
for beauty of stock, the ease with which it is
worked, and the facilities for moving and
shipping stone.
The granite quarres there and in the islands
adjacent embrace very many of great import
ance. The industry that calls for their de-
velopment is adding immensely to the wealth
and fame Of our good old State of Maine.

CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED.


SCHENCK'S PULMONIC SYRUP,
SCHENCK's SEAwEED TONIC,
SCHENCK'S MANDRAKE PILLS,
Are the only medicines that will cure Pulmonary
Consumption. Frequently medicines that stop
cough viii occasion the death of the patient; they
lock up he liver, stop the circulation OF the blood

two-thirds OF the cases of Consumption. Many
persons complain of dull pain in the side, con.
stipation coated tongue pain in the
feelings of drOwsiness and rest1essness, the food
lying heavily on the stomach, accompanied with
acidity and belching up of wind. These symptoms
usually originate from disordered condition of the
stomach or torpid liver. Persons so affected, II
they take one or Two heavy colds and If the cough
in these cases be suddenly checked, will find the
stomach and liver clogged remaining torpid and
inactive, and almost before they are aware the
lungs are mass of sores, and liberated the result
of which is death. Schencks Pulmonc Syrup Is
an eXpectorant which does not contain opium or
anything calculated TO check q cough suddenly.
Schenck's Seaweed Tonic dissolves the food, mixes
with the gastric juices of the stomach, aids diges-
ton and creates a ravenous appetite. When the
bowels are costive, skin sallOw, or the symptoms
otherwise OF bilious tendency, Schencks Man
drake Pills are required. These medicines are
prepared only by j. II. SCHENCK h son,

"How Is that for High"

This and several other expressions of SINH
lar import, were loudly shouted by the occu-
pants Of several carriages yesterday forenoon,
who were driving to the city from the direc-
ton of Togus, the party giving expression to
the above quotation being female. The I'M
conscious causes of this commotion were la
dy and gentleman quietly vending their way
cityward on the sidewalk the gentleman hav-
ing his arm about the lady's waist. No doubt
the chow is that for high" party regarded the
couple as of that young and tender age just
budding into the fancful realm yclept
"spooney." They would have attracted less
attention had it been known that the gentle
man and lady had become accustomed to the
position by more than nine years of happy So
journing as husband and wife, and have never
thrown aside those little attentions which
lovers are sure to bestow. The moral of this
little episode is, that we should never judge
hastily or deride appearances, and that mar
ried man should never suffer his arms to en-
circle his wifes waist upon the street. lest he
be taken for young "spooney."
