BUSINESS BOOMING.

Probably no one thing has caused such
a revival of trade at } Il Metcalt's drug
store as the giving away to customers Of
so many trial bottles of DR.. Kings New
Discovery for Consumption, Their trade
is simply enormous in this very valuable
article from the fact that it always cures
and never disappoints. Cougha colds,
esthlna, bronchitis, Group and ali throat
and lung diseases quickly cured. You
can test it by getting a trial bottle free,
large SIZE 81. Every bottle warranted.

A Dallas county farmer made
ninety~eight bushels and three pecks
of corn on one acre of land. This
shows what proper cultivation will
do. Would it not pay a farmer to
cultivate five acres with care for 45O
bushels than to scratch over fifteen
or twenty acres and not realize SC
much? We think so.

of the largest and most interesting exhibit

The display Of fine cattle and horses will ex-
Gel anything ever before shown in this vicin-

congratulated on their success in securing
such valuable entries. The model creamery
in full operation, will prove attractive to all,
while races and contests Of various descrip-
tions will add the element OF excitement to
the interest. The electric light at night in
all parts of the grounds and buildings will
make the evening exhibitions brilliantly en-
joyable, and this fair will undoubtedly be
what the officers purpose, the best ever held
by the society.

The modes Of deaths approach are various, and
statistics show conelusyely 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
nrst slowly, and is shown by slight tickling SEN
sstion 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-
eccd will, in time, cause death. At the onset you
must act with promptness; allowing cold to go
without attention is dangerous, and may lose you

The spanish Consulate.

The Spanish government has decided to
close the consulate at this port. and has
therefore recalled its representative, Senior
Don Enrique Ainz. Mr.. Ainz will return to
Madrid during the month of September.
The occasion for this action on the part of
the government is due to the fact that the
business at this poit no longer warrants the
retention here of consul and vice consul.
A commercial agent will probably be all that
is required for governmental purposes in
Portland. Mr.. Ainz was consul here dur
ing 1s62-64, and again since 1880. His ac-
quaintance with Maine men and Maine BUSH
ness has made him most valuable to his
country. Wherever he goes he will bear
