The above remarkable cure is another
proof Of DR.. Darrin's wonderful power
over disease. Mr.. Chamberlain is a
man we'll known throughout the county

to nearly all forms of disease is certainly
revolutionizing the practice Of medicine.
We can with all oandor recommend DR..

after this medicine was offered at the drug
store OF &. |. Hood & Co. Everybody was as
tonlshed when they heard Of the cure OF Miss
Sarah Whittier, For many years she had suf-
iered more than can be told, from scrotuous
sores For two years she was unable 70 be out
OF the house and for six months was obliged to
Use cFutehes 10 get round her room. When
she began 10 take Hoods Sarsaparilla she had
~ scr0iula sores on her body, was thin In
flesh. with little appetite, aud unable to sleep
nights on account OF pain and nervousness.
Before she had taken the whole OF . bottle Of
Hoods sarsaparlla there was a great change
for the better, and after time the sores had
all healed aud she was IN general good health.
All this was ten years ago ana the benetil

Cushnoc made break at the start and ran

ner. The judges. wise or otherwise. clothed
with power, saw fit to set the horse back to
fifth place. Certainly the judges office is
not an enviable one, for we are not all in
falihle and consequently do not all see
things alike. and though we would not ques-
ton the sincerity of Mr.. Pompilly we be-
lieve that it was a case where other equally
good judges might justly decide differently
Providing Cushnoc can be saved, as there
is Tow possibility that he may be, the diff

Railroad Moeting.

An informal meeting OF those favorable

held at the Office of Wilson & Lumbert at
Houlion On Wednesday evening of last
week. There we're present Hon. George p,

Putnam. Remarks favoring the project
were mai by several gentlemen present.
President WescOtt in the course of his re-
marks said he had made the survey at his
own expense; that syndicate proposed to
build the road as soon as 100000 was
pledged.
Mr.. Wescott stated that he had said that
il 100000 were guaranteed by July 10, he
would put the road under contract the pres
ent season. The county had not done that,
and he now proposed to give the month Of
August to do it in. II the amount was
raised this month he pledged his word that
the road should be built. Mr. Wescott
stated further that he wants the main line
to come to IIoulton and is not in favor of
the talked of route from Island Falls to
Brdgewater. The sentiment of Houlton
and vicinity we believe is entirely in favor
of the N. NJ. Railroad, and we think the
amount of money to be pledged will be forth
coming. Times.

Limit to Railway Speed.

The increase both in the magnitude of the
trains ard of the speed at which they are
conve, ed has been extraordinary that it ia
natural to ask how far the present perform
ances of the most rapid express trains are
within the limits of possibility. The main
limit to speed of travel is the resistance of
the atmosphere, which is three times ss
much at 90 miles hour as it is at one
fourth of that velocity. Hence it has been
considered, even by practical men, that
heavy train running very slowly, must be
more renumerative than a light train running
very fast. And in point of fact the power
that would draw train o. 2ll tons al l5
miles an hour would draw only 704 tons at so
miles an hour. Bat this increase of cost de-
pends mainly on the increased quantity of
fuel necessary to raise the steam. 1t only
applies, therefore, to a comparatively small
proportion of the cost of railway working
Nearly two-thirds of the total working cost
incurred by the railway companiesi' unaffect-
ed by the speed of trains. Other charges are
| as inversely as speed that is to say, are less
per ton or per train. the less time the train
takes in its journey. Thus, while fuel costs
| three times as much for speed of 60 as for
one of Is miies an hour, wages cost only
one-four as much at the more rapid
as at the lor rr speei; and the total cost is in
| consequence not 50 directly dependent on
speed ss mgat have been anticipated.
| Again, the carrying paver incres ses with the
| speed b at decreases. and that very rapidly
! rilh the difference in the speeds maintained
| BY trains running over the same road. Some
where about 30 miles an hour is, under the
present conditions regariing both capital
cost and annual expenditure, the most
economical speed on the English railways as
| a rule But now that we have taught the
| public that car carry them at from 80 to
| so mile. an hour, we cannot anticipate that
the ordinary passenger speed will be alloxed
to fail OF. At the same time it mast

Save the River.

There is said to be considerable feeling
among mili-men against an enforcement of
the wsprohibiting the throwing Of savdust
into the Kennebec. II the lumber manufac-
turers care anything for the great interests
-hich depend upon the navigable con
dition of our river, they will obey the
law to the letter. The importance Of keep
ing the river channel open is recognized not
only by parties directly interested in naviga-
ton, bu. by the government itself, ~ 10
evinced by the large appropriation made for
improving the river in this vicinity. II the
mill-men, in defiance Of the laws Of the
State, continue to dump their refuse into the

Government has done in the way Of
chanrel improvement, the mssser would
