after an absence of few months, is again at
the Falmouth" seemingly entirely at home at
his old quarters. His many friends in this city,
and the large numbers of others who will wish
to make his acquaintance, will be gratified to
read this announcement.
The doctor is thoroughly educated gentle
man, and has enjoyed rare opportunities in the
New York and other hospitals. to fit himself
for the.special mission to which he is devoting
his life At an early day he felt that pulmonic
difficulties and others that result directly in
disorders of the throat and lungs, demanded
the highest skill, and that their terrible raw
for meeting and overcoming all this class of
diseases. He has acted upon this principle, and
his medicines are the direct result.
His examinations are entirely gratuitous and
he is entirely free in expressing his opinions.
If patients need more careful diet rather than
his "Milk Cure, he frankly tells them so.
As we should have known, the Doctor is ap-
preciated in other places, as well as in Port
lond. We notice the following from the Prov
idence Journals:
'.Dr. s. D. Howe of New York the celebrated
discoverer of the Arabian Milk Cure, by which
thousands have been cured of consumption,
will be at Parlors 81 and 50, City Hotel, on
Tuesday, Wednesday. Thursday and Friday, of
this week, where he will examine patients
from nine o'clock IN the morning until five in
the afternoon. DR.. Howe is regularly edu-
Gated physician, and has had most remarkable
success in treating diseases of the lungs, liver,
kidneys, blood, etc. We were in another city
a few months since; when the Doctor was
there, and his parlors were literally damned
with patients, several of whom had been saved
by his treatment. He is frank with his pa
tients, and does not profess to perform impos.
sibilities.' ~a
DR.. Howe will remain at the Falmouth I'M

BOSTON AND MAINE ENGINEERs.-The fol-
lowing particulars regarding the engineers on
the Boston & Maine may be of interest: They
number sixty-six all told, twenty-seven running
passenger trains, sixteen freight trains, and
twenty three doing the shifting and general
job work on the road, supplying vacancies and
filling such other positions as may be necessary.
They rarely serve as mechanics before going on
the road, most of the number now employed
having been promoted from the ranks of the
firemen, the regular source of supply for the
more responsible Office Of engineer. The fire.
man is expected to serve from two to five years
as such, and in this position he not only be-
comes familiar with the duties of the engineer,
but learns all the road-bed, the switcher, sig
nails, train times, and the thousand and one de-
the engineers duty. The fremen number the
same as the engineers, and all expect to be
'sboss of the machine in due course of time.
In the matter of pay, the engineers receive
$1,000 to $1,000 year, length of service and
amount of labor regulating the salaries. The
firemen receive from $500 to 5000 year, and
both classes average 100 miles day, the longer
routes oblging the men to ride more miles, and
the branch roads calling for less number Of
miles but more hours day.
Of the veterans sin service, VIM. p Fernald
deserves first mention, he having worked his
way mp from station hand to passenger engi-
neer between Boston and Exeter on the Port
land route, and having served the road for
nearly thirty years, Henry F. Pasho, Jr. who
| now runs on the Portland routelfrom Exeter to
Portland, has also been on the rOap for over a
quarter of century, and is looked up to by the
Youngsters as model engineer. George Poor
has been on the freight department. for over
| twenty years, running between Boston and
Lawrence Henry B. Potter is another twenty
year map, having run passenger between Bos-
| ton and Exeter about that time. E. w. Mat

SHAKEsPEARIAN RECITALs-It is to be re-
GREETED that so small number attended th9

Mr. Bartlett was loudly applauded. His selec-
tions were all from Shakespeare except the
last, 1.-THE Charge of the Six Hundred" This
selection from Tennyson was, as might have
been expected. finely rendered. The style OF
delivery was dramatic and pleasing.
Sappho aided in the entertainme mt by recit-
ing several selections from different authors,
and singing the song, "Where the Bee Sucks. .
She was we'll received, as usual. Chandler s
