Reports have been circulated regarding
the difficulty that Penobscot mills we're
finding In getting vessels to take their
freights, owing to the large number en-
gagged In the ice trade. A JOURNAL report
er saw Kennebec mill owner yesterday
and from him learned that during the whole
sesson vessels for lumber freights were
easily ob,Aipabie and at cheaper rates than
last year. Vessel owners, he said. pre-
fcred to take their ffeighss from the Ken
nehec rather than the Penobscot. owing to
the fact that along the Kennebec the lum-
Der is put aboard the vessels, while on the
Penobscot the vessels have to do their own
loading. The fact that vessels to load lum.
Der have been very plenty this year must
servs a. quite knotty problem to the pro
phetic statisticians in this vicinity who fig
urcd out la.t winter that Il would be i'm
possible to obtain sufficient vessels for ship

along this river has not yet reached its limit.

W. b. Prideaux, the druggist, gives
ten reasons why Chamberlain Cough
Remedy is the best:
l. 1t will cure cold in less time
than any other treatment.
2. 1t does not suppress cough OF
cold; but loosens and relieves it.
3. 1t relieves the lungs, which is of
great Importance in treating a cold.
4. 1t is the only remedy that will
cause the expulsion of mueus from
the air cells of the lungs.
5. 1t renders the mucus less tena-
cious and easier to expectorate.
O. If freely used as soon as the first
symptoms appear, it viii cure a severe
cold in a single day.
z. 1t will prevent Group and avert
all danger and anxiety arising from
that dreaded disease.
s. 1t has cured thousands of cases
of Group, and careful inquiry fails to
discover a single case in which it has
ever failed.
9. 1t does not contain opium, chic
reform, nor any other injurious sub
stance. There is not the least danger
in giving it to children.
10. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
acts in perfect harmony with nature
and aids nature in relieving the lungs,
and freeing the system of morbid
matter, accumulated by cause of the
cold.

SCROFULA FROM CHILDHOOD.
After Being Treated by Eminent Ply
sicians he is Cured by S. S. S.

The following is an extract from a
letter received from I. \. Sizemore, of
Piedmont, ). c., and written under
date of November 6, 1888:
Il am now twenty-eight years old
and from the time l was seven years
of age until 1885, suffered with a
severe case of Scrofula. During that
time took every known remedy, but
to no purpose. My father took me to
North Carolina, where | was put under
the treatment of an eminent physician.
The medicine given me had only a
temporary effect, for shortly after my
return the scrofula broke out in a
more Malignant form and l was worse
off than ever before.
"In 1885 l discontinued taking all
other medicines and commenced tax
ing Swift's Specific Is. 5. s. took a
nufiiber of bottles and it cured me. l

Shot his Finger OFF.
The Shullsburg Local.


Marshal John Henry met with an
accident last Tuesday, by which lie
may lose a finger. Passing Ander-
sons saloon that evening about eight
o'clock, his attention was attracted to
a row in progress on the inside. The
marshal went in and arrested Hugh
More. On the way to the calaboose,
and when near the mill, Hugh got
away from the marsha. and while rap
Idly pursuing liberty the marshal drew
his revolver and resting it on his left
hand fired at the retreating man. The
ball, however, penetrated the marshal's
finger above the second joint, instead
of Hugh's body, and the wounded of
ticer gave up the chase.

Why Tax Straw Hats?

A fashionable lady bathing in the sea
at Long Branch or Newport has her
fashionable bathing suit capped by Pc
culiar looking straw hat. The wide
caves of this hat are tied underneath her
chin, causing its fore and aft aspects to
appear like two old scuttle boDnets
placed back to back. From Maine to
Florida fishermen affect a coarse straw
hat with wide, turned up brim, and
seem to take great comfort therein. Out
on the great western farms men of all
ages, in hot weather, seem addicted to
wearing straw hats with wide brims
turned down. The fashionable lady, the
fisherman and the farmer are all wear
ing precisely the same kind of hat
Where do these hats come from? They
are so marvelously cheap that they al
most seem like Topsy, ''to have growed. {"
The great majority of them cost the re-
taller only thirty-fve cents a dozen. 1t
seems impossible that any man or ma
chine could do so much plating for so
little money.
These straw hats are manufactured
abroad in the first instance. They come
hASAlt NouAlN1 lSS, ssLI nave pttli
accordingly divided by the trade into
four classes. Italy gives US "Leghorns;'
Spain sends us "Malagas:" South Ameri-
ca exports to us "Curacoas," and from
China we get grass hats"
With the exception, perhaps, of the
China variety, these hats are all W nat is
known as 'by products" Eve. the
easily contented peasants of sunny Italy
could hardly afford to make it the bust
ness of their lives to furnish thi' coun-
try with straw hats at remU Iteration
of, at most, fifteen cents a dc zen. But
children need not be very str ng or very
big to wander about their h. mes during
the summer time and col ect the wild
straw in small bundles. T zen when the
long nights arrive, all the members of
the family sit and plat lie straw into
braids and then stitch t, q braids into
shapeless hats.
These hats are quick $ bought up by
exporters. They are then packed in
bales, which are subjected to hydraulic
pressure in order TO diminish their bulk.
When they become nothing more ncr
less than fiat disks of straw by this treat
ment they are shipped to the United
States.
There is nothing like these straw hats
made in this country; no grass or straw
so suitable, no labor so little worth. Yet
the keen eye of Uncle Sam makes them
out as special object from which the
inhabitants of his territory should be
sternly protected by an ad valorem duty
of 80 per cent In this way the bloated
surplus was increased in the year 1887
by $3.50, S44
Once in this country, after the grasp
ing surplus has had its pound of flesh,
the hats get on well enough. There are
several large factories in Massachusetts,
which shape them and bleach or dye
them, sometimes even ornament them
/ with ribbons. Then they are sold to the
jobber, after profit has been calculated
on net cost, plus so per cent. duty. The
I jobber calculates his profit on the same
basis. The 80 per cent. grows, like a
rolling SNOWFALL, until it finally causes
| the consumer to pay about double what
he might If che senseless tariff on these
I cheap straw hats was abolished.
