A WARNING.

The modes OF deaths approach are various, and
statistics show concluslvely that more persons die
from diseases of the Throat and Lungs than any
other. 1t is probable that everyone, without ex-
ception, receives vast numbers of Tubercle Germs
into the system, and where these germs fall upon
suitable soil they start into life and develop, at
first slowly, and is shown by slight tickling SEN
sation in the throat, and If allowed to continue
their rayages they extend to the lungs, producing
Consumption, and to the head, causing Catarrh.
Now all this is dangerous, and if allowed to pro-
coed win, in time, cause DEATH At the onset you
must act with promptness; allowing cold to 90
without attention is dangerous. and may lose you
your life. As soon as you feel that somethingi is
wrong with your Throat, Lungs or Nostrils, OBJ
tain bottle of Boschee's German Syrup. It will
give you immediate relief. noy8-dly-cT

What They Think Of Amusements.


A short time ago the Lewiston journal
sent letters to prominent clergymen through
out the State, asking their opinion on amuse-
lnents, such as horse-racing, the circus, thea
tire, base ball, etc. Messrs, Henry Blanchard
of Portland and Q. Il. Shinn of Deering re-
piled from this vicinity. MIR. Blanchard
says:
Il find it difficult to reply to your ques-
lions with satisfaction to myself. l see the
need OF amusements. urge my hearers to
discriminate wisely in their selection. rec

make some enjoy a symphony by Beethoven,

The predictions Of the Atkinson
House Furnishing Co., at this time
are that everybody will go visiting
this Fall. Your husbands will be
speaking on the tariff, and either
fav0ring the election of Cleveland
and Thurman, or Harrison and
Morton. Or to come nearer home,
each one Of your sons will be Wis.,
iting your neighbours sons, and
talking up the good qualities of
Mr.. Burleigh or Mr.. Putnam for
Governor. This of course means
a great deal Of visiting. 1t also
means visiting delegations from
other Counties, and Statesmen of
ren0wn from other States. Now
who is there among you that does
not require a new Chamber Set
for the spare room, new Parl0r
Suit for the parl0r, an odd easy
chair for the eminent Statesman,
new Carpet, new Oil Cloths, a new
Range to tempt their appetites af-
ter their long open air speeches.
Lace and Drapery Curtains make
a room look cool and habitable i'm
the hot weather, and a thousand
and one other articles Of house
furnishing that go to make a
home look pleasant and its occu-
pants happy.
We have made special prices,
we mean by this lower prices than
ever for the months of July and
August, and as a further induce
ment we will again prepay the
freight on all goods sold by us
during these two months to your
depot. This Is the opportunity,
this is the time you need the
goods. We send photographs Of
Chamber and Parlor Furniture,
Easy Chairs, Lounges and every
conceivable kind Of house furn-
ishing. photographs Of Ranges,
and samples Of all kinds and grades
Of Carpetings. Write us and we
shall be pleased to reply immedi-
lately, furnishing you with pho
t0graphs aud samples as above
stated.
We still continue to sell for
cash, or a quarter of the amount
down at the time Of the purchase,
and the balance by the week or
month.
We have been a long time cater
ing to your wants, and have al
ways endeav0red to make every
thing satisfactory to you. We
want your trade, we want your
good will. Kindly let us hear from
you. No doubt the Country will
go on just the same no matter
who is elected to the Office, but
our chief aim and your chief aim
should be the advancement and
prosperity Of our own State Of
Maine.

generous patronage, and hoping
for a continuance of the same, we
remain,

TWO More Foreed check.

Saturday morning the First National Bvnk
received for collection two more forged
checks purporting to be signed by Chase,
Leavitt d Co., in favor of j. Melton. One
of the checks is for $15 and is endorsed by
Melton and WEIGH Brothers, of Bath. The
other check is for $25 and is endorsed by
Melton and the Austin @. Wellington Coal
Company, of Boston. This man, 60
ing by the name of Melton. is evidently
working quite business in the way of
forged checks, having perhaps uttered more,
that have not yet been presented for collec-
ton. The persons who have accepted these
checks, in payment of bills due from Melton,
are the ones, of course, who are the losers.

after their arrival, all the conveniences they
desired. The party was not as large as it
would have been II the day had been very
warm, but the skies were blue, the sun
bright, and the air was full of the briny fla
vor of the sea. Perhaps another excursion
may be given later.

RINES BROS.

Scattered around through the different
departments of our store are several pieces
of fancy furniture that we have bought
from time to time to show goods on, and
as they have served the purpose for which
they were purchased we have no further
use for them and to get the room they oc-
cupy we will sell them at prices much below
their actul value. For instance A mas
. sive Hamlet Chair upholstered with
richly embossed leather, fastened by hand
wrought fancy nails.-each nail work Of
art,-perfect in every way and cost us forty
dollars, will be sold for about half that
price. Three OF four Wakefield Rattan
Chairs, delicate colors. the finest goods
made by that celebrated company, were
bought last year to show our wild Rose
Pillows on. These have been marked at
prices way under what they could be
bought for at any furniture store, and they
are as fresh as when they came from the
makers. A Japanese Bric-a-brac Cabinet
imported at a cost of seventy dollars,
stands five feet high, richly decorated with
Japanese inlay and lacquer work, an ex-
quisite thing for parlor or library,-can
be bought for twenty-five dollars. Besides
these, there is un Antique Oak Rocking
dollars, is now four fifty; Corner Chair,
upholstered in old blue plush with bamboo
frame, several screens and easels, and
brass bedstead which we bought not long ago
for window display.
Every one of these articles Is worth as
much as 1t was the day it came into our
store. and every one is a bargain worth your
while to look into. If you find anything in
this collection that you want we will have it
carefully packed and shipped by freight or
express to any point desired.
