The Maine Farmer, In an excellent
article on the Bangor aud Aroostook
Railroad very urgently and wisely urges
that the sale OF stock by popular sub.
scription. 1t well says that there are
many business men and farmers Inter
ested In The proiecs and that the friends
OF the road are by no means confined to
Aroostook and Penobscot counties. AS
we understand it, the corporation pur-
poses to push the road on these very
lines, believing that while it may
take little longer and require more
work TO secure the remainder Of
the money needed to begin the
work of eoustruction-ouly about
two hundred thousand doliars-it would
be better to have the stock we'll
distributed among the people of the
State all Of whom will be hene.

OF this great enterprise. a large amount
of stock has already been subscribed for

dollars. BY making vigorous canvass
Ia the other counties of the State and
pushing these subscriptions in small
amounts. there can be no question but
what very large SUN Of money could
be readily. and lt seems to ia, speedily
collected. 1t Is generally conceded in
ausncisl circles that this road
will be a paying venture, and that it
now offers one Of the best and surest
ehsuces for the profitable Investment Of
capital to be found in New England.
Many large firms outside of the State

The surprising fact in the Boston elee'
ton was the great falling offin the license
vote. Last year the vote on the license
question stood as follows: For, 29,l59
against. 1870; majority. 1920. This
year the ote stood: For 10 ,63T against
2I,3l4; majority, 1923. These figures
show a falling off in the majority in favor
OF license of nearly II, 900 votes. We

AN Atlanta man has invented a
method of breaking land deep which
be thinks will revolutionize the pres
ent system ofagriculture. He digs
holes in the land, puts dynamite in
the holes and then touches off the ex,
plosive, and the result is that the
land will be pulverized to a depth Of
two or three feet. This kind of SUBJ
soiliDg costs about s25 an acre, and
the inventor of it has applied for a

RRM0VE THE CAUsE.-It is no


-- doubt the correct thing to
treat the symptoms of disease, but this
is not effective unless the cause of the
complaint is removed. For instance,
fever may be treated with quinine, etc,
but unless the cause is removed the fever
will surely return. Again, the sores and
eruptions of Scrofula may be healed by
mercury and potash treatment, but un-
less the cause of these symptoms is
cleansed from the system, they will re-
turn or attack some of the delicate in
ternal organs. Swift's Specific strikes
at the cause of the trouble, and forces
cut the germs of the disease, and the
poisin through the pores of the skin, and
at the same time builds up the general
health of the sufferer. Swift's Specific
is pu ely vegetable remedy, and is
harmless to the most delicate, yet it never
fails to eliminate the poisin from the hu-
man body. We will mail valuable book
to al who will send for it.
