DID YOU
Ever Stop to Think

How much very little change may do 10
make your home cheerful and beautiful? 1t
is we'll worth some study. Take for in
stance the old familiar pictures. How
much can be done to beautify them by just
changing their old faded and stained mats
by nice new ones. These can be secured
at Uuimhy's Art Rooms at trifling
cos, and will do wonders in
Frightening up the home If you feel
disposed to do more, and make your annual
house cleaning as complete as possible why
not have fewof the old dingy ,dust-grimmed
frames replaced with new ones! This
need not be expensive. Some very beauti
ful and dainty frames can now be made
from the many artistic mouldings that nov
come in tire low priced grades. The art of
moulding manufacture has progressed won
dcrfully in recent years and among the va
riety of late styles that may be seen at
Quimbys art rooms--thc largest assortment
ever carried in the Kennebec Valley--are
beautiful mouldings which can be made up
at wonderfully low prices, and at the same
tim make handsome and stylish frames.
Don't 20 esu y here tn have pictures framed

frame for family portrait. The flashy frame
that YOU bought from glb-tongued agent,
ami thought was such splendid bargain.
has begun to show its real quality. Its
joints are sprung, it looks old and warped
and dingy, and you feel that il was poor
economy ever to have invested in such
fraud. At Quimhy's art rooms the
same amount of money will buy you a
beautiful portrait frame that will not fade,
or warp, or spring at the joints or grow
dingy with wear. They are stylish and in
good taste. and if you take your portrait
out of its old frame and place it in one of
these you will add much to the attractive
ness of your home and never have
cause to regret your action. Those who re-
side outside the city should hunt up these
art rooms. Don't think that because you
desire a moderate priced frame you cannot
find it there. Mr.. Quimhy has a very wide
range of mouldlngs at varying prices and
can give you tasty frame at any figure you
feel able to pay.

That Body Will Begin the Discussion in
Earnest Soon.
WARRINGTON. Aug. 17.-The meeting of
the senate finance committee to-day was
attended by every member. and conclu-
siona were reached which may enable the
committee to report a repeal bill to-mor-
row. The attitude of Chairman voorhees,
to-day. however, gave the silver men on
the com mittee but little hore 70. he said
he would vote to report favorably repeal
bill, provided there IL a declaration coupled
with IL declaring for bimetalism. The
bill. when reported. will contain such dec
laration. and the vote by which it will be
reported 10 estimated. by members of the
committee. at six to five, the minority con-
sissing Of Harris. Vest Vance. Jones. of
Arkansas. and Jones. of Nevada.
When the committee adjourned all had
been substantially agreed upon but the
veYbiaQe of the bill. Al the meeting to- day
draft of the declaration for bimetallism
was submitted, which favors the continu-
ance of the use of both gold and silvtr (to
the extent of existing coinnge) as unlimited
legal tender. and declares that all our
forms Of money, whether gold, silver or
paper, should be maintained nt g parity
and equal in purchasing powe. 1t will
further declare that every effort ahall be
put forth to secure an International agree
ment for the adoption of fixed ratio
between gold and silver.

WAS no record of hsr arrest and on being

and inviting she had made use of il. She
refused to leave until she had been fur
