A WARMING.
d&w1w

The modes of deaths approach are various, and
statistics show concusIvely 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 ravages they extend to the lungs, producing
Consumption, and to the head, causing Catarrh.
Now all this is dangerous, and if allowed to pro-
eeed will, in time, cause death. At the onset you
must act with promptness; allowing a cold to go
without attention is dangerous, and may lose you
your life. AS soon as you feel that something is
wrong with your Throat, Lungs or Nostrils, OBJ
tain bottle of Boschee's German Syrup. 1t will
give you immediate relief. nov8-d1y-cT

Opening of the Dramatic Season.


Frederic Bryton, the powerful young ro-
mantle actor, will open the dramatic season
at the Portland Theatre, appearing on Fri
day and Saturday. August 81 and September
/, in his popular play Forgiven" which has
already won the warmest favor of Portland
audiences. Mr.. Bryton's impersonation of
the manly Jack Diamond has been accepted
everywhere as one of the most intensely Wig
orous and interesting portraitures of Amer
lean life that the stage has yet provided.
Forgiven" while drawing its incidents
from the frontier, does not belong to the
class of dramas that are termed BORDER
plays" 1t is idyllic rather than sensational,
and there are so many touches Of human in
terest throughout its scenes that its MARIA
tive never fails to enlist the closest attention
of thelm0st refined and cultured audiences
Mr.. Bryton will be ably.supported by strong
company and the performances can hardly
fail to meet with substantial consideration.

Great Success in Portland.

May people-some ofthe very best-are very
reluctant to confde their Ills and physical short
comings to their family physicians. They do
not like to meet every day man who has their
secret In his possession. Such persons allow
their maladies TO go and consume them rather
than ask the family doctor for relief which he
may or may not know how to give. To all such the
locating of DIR. Nichols in our city is boon. He
is a gentleman and whatever the patient may say
to him is reserved with the strictest confidence.
With his great success in treating the most criti-
cal cases the past six months, and with the high
reputation In which he is held, our readers are
familiar. When 1t is added that he never be-
trayed confidence placed in him, 1t will be seen
that no delicacy should prevent those sufferings
from obscure or complicated diseases from con.
sulting him. During August the doctor will be al
his office, 537 Congress street, every day except
Fridays and Saturdays, where he can be consult
ed free of charge. d&w

The Cape Light Keeper Dismissed.

The Secretary of the Treasury has direct
ed the dismissal Of Marcus A. Hanna, keep
or, and James w. Sterling, assistant keeper,
of the lighthouse station at Cape Eligabeth,
for neglect of duty. Among the charges
brought against these men were that the
light was allowed to go out, and that stable
for the care of horses for picnic parties was
kept ON the premises
Marcus A. Hanna, fisherman, sailor, SOL
der and lighthouse keeper, was born at the
Franklin Island light. Nov. 3d. 1912. His
father and grandfather were light keepers at
different points on the coast, the latter hav-
ing been in charge of Boone Island light
during the war of 1872. In 1861, Marcus en-
listed in the navy, and served with the Gulf
blockading squadron until discharged in
1862. when he entered the land service in
Co. E, 50th Massachusetts Infantry. After
the expiration of his term of service he en-
tered the Sd Massachusetts Artillery as sec
ond lieutenant, and remained on duty unit
mustered out at the close of the war.
Owing to disease contracted at the front,
he was unfit for hard, manual labor, and
was appointed to the position he now holdsl
As he has been accustomed to handling boats
from boyhood, the knowledge thus acquired
has been of great use to him several times,
and enabled him to perform several valiant
acts, which are well known to persons living
in the vicinity of the lights.
