the Flying Yankee was on the route fast
passenger train from Portland arrived in
during the coming season this train will run
only as far as Waterville at night and will
leave there the following morning several
hours after the Pullman from Boston has
passed and run into Bangor as passenger
train. Last year it did not pay as night
train, but many will regret that it will not be
run this year, as it was great convenience.

1t is very humiliatng no doubt to a mans
self-esteem to think that his success in life
can be Influenced to any extent by the fact
that he is well or poorly dressed. Yet
all persons are more or less influenced bv a
well dressed person. if his manners cores
pond with his dress. If a stranger approach
es you with any new business scheme and is
shabbily dressed, your first thought is, this
man is so poorly dressed that he must have
been unsuccessful, and consequently there is
no merit in his scheme, and you may decline
to make any investigation of what may be of
value. On the other hand, if he is we'll
dressed and of pleasing manners, his very
appearance of prosperity gives strength in
you, and you are more ready to listen.
In an instance like the one at the head of
this article, it is not necessary to argue the
question with the young man, he knows that
good fitting suit strengthens his other suit.
We think there is no excuse for any man
not being well dressed, considering the fact
that we are selling well made and well fitting
clothing at very low prices We believe that
every man should dress according to his bus
mess what is suitable for one is not for an
other. But we contend that when man buys
a suit he shall insist on having suit that is
well made and nice fitting, and if he will call
on us he will be sure to find it We have
clothing to suit all employments and all
purses.
