Could Not Hold the Child.

A year ago Mrs. G. B. Pomeroy went
from Newark to Canal a TO live with her Sec
ond husband, leaving her 6-year-old daugh-
ter IN the custody of Mrs. Julia Williams,
OF 457 Broad street, who was to receive So
week for the child's board, says the New
York San. On Saturday night a young
man, who is the child's uncle. called on
Mrs. Williams TO take the child to Canada
with him to her mother at the latter's re.
quest. He paid the childs board from last
May, but she was not given up to him, be.
cause there was an unpaid board bill of
VIZ which he knew nothing about, and
which was contracted before Mrs. Ponce
roy left Newark. He appealed to Police
Justice Van Ness, who sent for Mrs. Will
lams. She refused to give up the child,
ana the Justice told her that, although he
could not interfere, the law would not up
hold her in keeping the child to offset
debt of the parents.

Pierce's Favorite Prescription
brings relief and cure. It is a
powerful, invigorating, restorative
tonic and nervine. 1t imparts
strength to the whole system in
general, and to the uterine organs
and appendages in particular.
Rundown" debilitated and deli
cate women need it. It's legiti-
mate medicine purely vegetable,
perfectly harmless. It's guaranteed
to give satisfaction in every case, or
money refunded. Nothing else does
as much. You only pay for the
good you get. Can you ask more?
As a regulator and promoter of
functional action, at that critical
period of change from girlhood to
womanhood, "Favorite Prescrip-
ton" is perfectly safe remedial
agent, and can produce only good
results. 1t is equally eficacious and
valuable in its effects when taken

most critical period, known as "The

Late Invention In Door Locks.

The latest invention in door locks is one
which cannot be opened from the outside
by pliers or skeleton key if it is locked on
the inside, and for this reason is especially
valuable for hotel rooms and inside doors
OF buildings generally. 1t has double
bolts, one above the other. The lower one
is used to lock the door from the outside.
Its keyhole does not go clear through the
lock, neither does the keyhole OF the bolt
that locks the door from the inside. When
the door is locked on the inside there is no
means of reaching the key or the keyhole
OF the inner bolt from the outside of the
door. This lock is being extensively used
on the Pacific coast in all new hotels.

Mr. Edward Harding will be compelled by
business engagements to decline. Should this
prove to be the case Mr.. e. B. Mallett of
Freeport and Mr.. Edward Moore of Deering,
both good men, will be urged for the vacan-
cies. The most exciting contest will take
place over the nomination for sheriff. The
leading candidates are Mr.. Leander e. Cram,
and Mr.. Herbert r. Sargent, but Mr.. o. /.
Despeaux, Mr.. d. d. Chenery, Mr. Elisha
Jordan and Mr.. Alvin Doughty all nave ueie- 4
gates pledged to their support. IL looks as
though neither Mr.. Cram nor Mr.. Sargent
would have delegates enough to nominate on
the first ballot The probability is, however,
that one of these gentlemen will eventually
be selected, though the situation is such as to
encourage dark horses. Mr.. F. W. Robin
son, the efficient county attorney, will be
accorded nomination without opposition.
Clerk of Courts Stone will also succeed him
self. There are four candidates for Register
of Deeds, Mr.. Knights, the present register,
Mr.. d. p. Chaplain of Bridgton, Mr. 81. G.
Brewer of Freeport and Mr.. ]. M. Thomp-
son of New Gloucester. MIR. Knight is handi-
capped by the fact that the office has al
ways been regarded as one term Office
Otherwise he would. no doubt, be strong
candidate, for he has made an excellent
officer. The other three gentlemen have
each some delegates pledged to them. and
there is no doubt that any one of them would
make an efficient officer. For Commissioner,
the candidates are Capt. Hammond, the
present commissioner, Mr.. Elbridge G..
Lord of Windham, and Mr.. W. b. Allen of
Yarmouth. There is plenty of good material
for the convention to select from, and
though of course the work of selection must
necessarily carry with it some disappoint-
ment there is no doubt that the result will be
accepted cheerfully by the defeated candi-
dates. The contests, though they have been
earnest, have not, we believe, been such as
to engender bitterness or hard feelings.
