Tn. Safest and Best Internal remedy

1t is safe to take Brandreths Pills at any
time. but to get the best results they should
be taken on an empty stomach, going to bed.
1t is well on the night you take them to eat
little or no supper. AS no two people are
affected precisely the same by like quanti-
ty of the the same medicine, it is difficult ia
determine the dose; and it is something
which must be left to the discretion of the
patients. We will say, though, the average
dose for an adult is from four to ten, accord
ing to effect.
For Constipation or Dyspepsia, one or two
taken every night will, in short time, per-
form an absolute cure. 1t is we'll to take a
purgative at least once or twice a month as a
preventive of disease, and as these Pills are
entirely vegetable, and are made with the
greatest care, we know them to be the safest
and most effective purgative ever introduced
to the public. They have been sold in this
country for over fifty years, and have in that
time attained an unprecedented popularity.

Yesterday forenoon Fish Warden l. A.
Carr of East Winthrop, took out warrants
against two well known fishermen,
'0'h of this city, for Illegally
catching bass in the kennebec River. At
last accounts the warrants had not been
served, 1t has been generally held by sports
men that the Law making close time for
olaek bass does not apply to the tide waters
o. the State, but only to inland waters. Mr..
Carr, however, says that he has carefully
examined the law and finds that tide waters
are included. If this is the case, then the
large numbers of white perch which are cap
'ufed with shad in nets down river are
Aken contrary to Law, and the fish
etmen are liable. Carr says that he is de-
'1oas of finding another net of equal size
.od length to the one which he took up in
belgrade Pond recently. If he can do this
ne will be satisfied.
