three years, more than l2O0 per cent.

OF the Nassalboro WOODEN mills, whica keeps
Aeveral teams on the road trucking all the
time, is done through this station, as well
AS the LEGAL freight for East Nassalboru,
China and neighbo1ng towns. On an
average about 50 cars of way freight are
handled per week. The new freight house
is 225 feet long and one of the best fitted
on the line. There are - doors on the re-

Do not eat too much. 1t is better to eat
too little. The rule to get up with an appe-
tite, though hardly an inviting one, is not
without reason. Habitual repletion is much
to be deprecated. If people would or could
always attend to these simple directions.
the benefit to health would be enormous.
The gain in economy, too. would be greater
than many Of us think.
1t is astonishing how little food a man
requires TO do hard work and remain in
health, II that food is proper in quality and
properly taken. Improper food improperly
taken Is not only TO greatiextent wasted
but will In the end lead to serious disaster

An English Club Mans Expenses.

The life Of an English club member, with,
say, 81 500 to 81 800 a year, involves econo-
mics that to the average American would
be impossible, II he knew that by going
to work he could earn as much more. 1t
means lodgings in some quiet street at con-
siderably less than similar lodgings would
cost here, breakfast at the lodgings, a
luncheon somewhere else and dinner at the
club or at the house of a friend. 1t is pos
sible to dress decently on very little, so that
the young man is able to dine at the club
the year round if need be, to have his little
run in the country, his cruise on a friend $
yacht or his fishing in the Highlands or in
Norway.
1t is common in London clubs of the
quiet kind to provide table d'hote dinner
at shillings or 3s. and Cd. The diner may
have in addition for 30 or 40 cents a pint of
excellent claret. Most of the diners at
clubs Of very good standing seldom go be
yond the table d'hote and its pint of claret.
Even men in comparatively easy circum-
stances are content with this, and anxious
that the meal shall be kept within 5 shil-
lings. Something better is often provided
for a guest but if one member of small in
come dimes with another at the club or else
where, return dinner becomes a matter of
obligation.
The economies of such a man excite no
scorn or surprise. His case is too common.
He has deliberately accepted life at 81, 800 a
year. and the average Englishmay sees
nothing discreditable in such acceptanceyo or
in the voluntary idleness of a man, perhaps
of education and brains-San Francisco

upon us recently and gave us many in

that the first iron planer which came to

upon speculation and remained in the
warehouse two years before it was sold.

Graf, ofyyariike Old Redskins.

A ships officer who has spent much time
on the st, Johns river, Florida, thinks that
he has solved the problem as TO the origin
of the shell mounds that occur along that
stream. The river twists about In an ex.
traordinary way, so that in many places
the view along the water extends for only
few rods but he finds that a tall object
or the smoke of a fire shown from the top
of one Of these mounds could be seen from
those next below and above.
He believes, therefore, that these emf
nences were Indian signal stations, by
means Of which the natives were able to
announce the approach of hostile force
along the river, as the Greeks signaled the
news of the fall of Troy to their home cities
by lights on the mountain tops that were
repeated from peak to peak.-Military
Times.
