Mr.. c. H. Gatchel is the Prince OF Directory
Publishers. His plan is such that it enables the
most obscure dealer or manufacturer to make
known his business to the public in an attractive
and permanent manner, and as Mr.. Gatchel
claims and as the numerous letters of recon-
mendation and commendaton which he brings to
IL, from other cities testify his plan is not only to
the advantage of the individual concerns who pat
ronize patronize him, but also to the city at large,
showing at glance as it does, the business COM
munty and its enterprise. Mr. Gatchell has just
completed perfect and reliable directories of our
neighboring cities, Gardiner and IIallowel, and is
now canvassing Augusta, where we hope he will
find the same public enterprise among our bust

suggestion has.bcen made that fund be raised
for the benefit Of the families Of Gremen who lose their

ton Is undoubtedly good one but would IL not be
better to accomplish the result such manner

charity. | would suggest that the Gre insurance CON-
panies, merchants and others, who are peculiarly
interested in the arduous duties OF the nremen sub
scribe to the payment Of the premium a policy Of
insurance aRninst accidents, which, IN the Of
death from accident nsures TO the family 81 900 and
