One of the most popular stump speakers
in the Maine campaign was Congressman
Boutele of the Fourth district. He has a
fine presence, a clear voice, and vigorous,
convincing style of oratcry. No man who
ever listened to Mr.. Boutelle could possibly
doubt that his whole heart was in the cause.
II is largely this fact we think which gives
him his power over the sympathies of his au-
dience. That Mr.. Boutelle's effectiveness as a
speaker is appreciated outside of Maine, is
shown by the fact that he has received invi
tations to speak in the present campaign from
the Republican National Committee, the
Republican State Committees OF
New YORK, ohio' Michisah
Indiana and other States, and special invita-
tons from the Republican Clubs of Phila

SUNDAY PROGRAMME.
For the Band Concert at Togus.


There is no article of food more gener-
ally consumed than wheat flour in its various
forms of bread and pastry, but chemists by
examination find that by its use, mankind
loses two-thirds of the elements that go to
make up bone and muscle. These vital
elements are the phosphates which are alb
solutely necessary for the maintenance of
health, and which nature has provided in
the wheat grain, but man has removed from
the flour in the process of boiling. 1t was
this fact that suggested the invention of
Prof. Horsford of his preparation as bak-
ing powder that would add these nutritious
phosphates, and thereby supply the deficiency
in the flour. In place of the alum, cream
tartar, etc, used in common baking powders,
he produced an acid phosphate, and thus
makes a baking powder which not only
raises the dough, but leaves in the bread the
vital phosphates of which the -four has
been deprived. septlld&wlm

their credit the same percentage of games
won as the Skowhegans, we stand ready to
