Womam's influence.

Delicate women may exert
much influence, but little in
comparison with what it would
be with abundant health. ,
The wife wants health that
she may be the companion Of
her husband and her family.
Beware of dizziness, sudden
faintness, irritability, backache,
nervousness, extreme lassitude,
depression, exhaustion, excita-
bility, and sick headache.
These are sure indications of
female weakness, some derange-
ment of the uterus or womb;
they are danger signals, which
warn you to avoid a life of mis-
cry. Lydza E. Pinkham's Teg-

A Waterville despatch says: DR.. A.
W. Small's flying visit to Waterville and
DR.. Harper's visit to the Colby alumni
reunion at Boston last week, may have
deep significance for Colby. A plan is
under consideration to affiliate all Bap-
fist colleges in the country with Chicago
University. The trustees and faculty of
Colby have been sounded on the subject.
DIR. Harper's remarks at Boston. take
fresh meaning when this is taken into
consideration. That the benefits of such
an alliance are doubtful, is the idea of
those of the trustees, faculty and alumni
who have expressed an opinion.

\ GLANCE into our
IA big show window
today gives you an
idea, an inkling of the
Hosiery exhibition that's
on now, but it conveys no
notion Of the vastness Of
our stock, nor Of the ex-
tent to which novelty and
originality have been car
ried this season by stock
ing makers. The long
reign of solid blacks has
kept the brighter hues
and more fanciful designs
in the background, but
this Spring there's a de-
cided break towards color
and stripe and figure, and
our line embraces the
newest and best from ev-
cry source. 1t is a fair
reflection of the latest
Hosiery thought. Every
thing is Onyx" We
bear down hardest on the
name because it stands for
excellence. Every days
selling strengthens our
belief in the superiority
of "Onyx" over all other
makes, and every year sees
a largely increased de-
mand for these very reli-
able goods. The strong
est kind of a war; ant goes
with them you know, we
give a new pair or the
money back and you take
no risk whatever.
No other store sells
"Onyx."

STATE TOPICS OF INTEREST.


1t was stated in despatch from Wat
erville that Mayor johnson of that city
was about the same as booked for minis
ter to Norway and Sweden, but singular
ly enough, it is said that Hon. j. B. Red
man OF Ellsworth, has very strong
backing for that position. Mr.. Redman
has twice been nominated for governor
by the Democrats and polled a large
vote, although not elected. He is lead
ing lawyer of Hancock county and
leading Democrat. Several men have
been in Washington in his interest re-
Gently and, while it is said they have re-
ceived no positive assurance, their hopes
have risen.
Deputy Sheriff Parker of North Ber-
wick has arrested man who answers
the description of one seen about the
freight train in Dover, N. H., last Tues
day night, when Brakeman Sawyer lost
a gold watch and $3.50. and Brake man
Potter lost $16.40. When arrested the
man claimed that he had never been in
Dover. When searched, a gold watch
with Brakeman Sawyer's picture on the
inside cover was found, also pocket
book, which contained nearly 5000, and
on the pocketbook was written in
ink, David Y. Hill.

February is one of the best months of
the year in which for calves and lambs
to come. They and their dams get
good ready for the spring pasture.
Do not let manure remain in the sheep
sheds till it heats and the ammonia es-
capes noticeably. If it begins to do this,
clean it out at once. It will injure both
the feeccs and the sheep in that condi-
ton.

for bad weather. Once over the line. the
racers settled down to work. The in
creased ballast attached to the Valkyrie's s
keel appeared to do her a world of good,
for S ae sat right up to windward, and in
less than an hour was fully 800 yards off
the Americans weather bow. Both
racers were standing inshore towards the
big hotel at Long Branch. The Vigilant
did not travel with her traditional speed
and was fully quarter of point farther
away from the wind. They were plung-
ing their bowsprits deep into the sea and
their decks were awash more than once.
The Vigilant's people were doing their
though she was being "pinched" too
much. At 1.10, the Vigilant being
pretty close inshore, went on the port
tack and headed in the direction of the
Valkyrie, then standing over to the star
board. The American boat was in doubt
as to whether she would be able to cross
the Englishman's bow and two minutes,
forty seconds later the Vigilant went
about again and stood inshore. The
Valkyrie went about at 1. 1885, followed
by the Vigilant five seconds later. They
now stood off shore heading about south
east, one-half south On this leg the
Valykyrie managed to beat up more into
the wind, and half an hour after they
went in stays, she had gone a hundred
yards further to windward and was gu t.
footing the American.
Even thus early it was almost assured
that the Valkyrie in heavy sea and a
half gale, was by far the speedier and
sitter boat of the two The mark was
before she went on the starboard tack at
2.11.30. The Vigilant went about at
2.12.25, little to the windward of the
Valkyrie, and it was evident she was 60

Lound for the Lightship, was still in
tow, but in addition to her mainsall she
had set her working jib, and it looked
as it she might cut loose form the tug at
n moment and stand out to sea under
ner own sail. The wind at this time was
breezing up perceptibly. A large fleet OF
sailing crafts was standing in and out OF
the harbor, their sails bellied out like
huge balloons and their hulls keeled
over considerably from the strength of
the wind and the rapidity with which
they were being driven through the
water.
A few seconds before the starting gun
was fired, the Valkyrie and Vigilant
were flying for the line close hauled on
the starboard tack, the American boat
little in the lead, with the Englishman
off her weather quarter 1t was close
call, for they looked as though the Vigil
liant would be over first, and handicap
the Valkyrie by half minute. Skipper
Hansen was little too anxious, and had
to pay the penalty by being forced over
toward the eastern end of the line. Ihe
result was a loss to the American boat,
for she had to luff to weather the May.
The Englishman stood for the line with
every sail full, and crossed few seconds
ahead, and well to windward. After
crossing the line, both yachts heeled
well to leeward The Valkyrie was a
trifie stiffer and seemed to carry her can
vas with more ease 1t would have been
a wise move to have reefed malnsalls,
for the sea was increasing at every
moment and the barometer falling rapid

the upper bay and on the rivers ada
cent to the city quite sea was kicking
up and a good breeze from the east was
carrying the smoke and steam from the
tunnels of steam craft rapidly to the
westward. Skippers-said the barometer
was falling and they said this indicated
the storm which the weather sharps had
sighted coming this way from the West
Indies would reach here some time to-
day. Old Barnacles thought the storm
would break before noon, and that it
would blow great guns. This was, how
ever, what everybody had been wishing
for, and yaehtsmen were delighted with
the prospects. Lord Dunraven, they
said, has had every kind of a blow but a
hurricane, and if he had that today and
was again beaten, of what could he COM
plain?
Tae Britisher's scheme of putting a
ton of lead in his..boat was variously com
mented upou. Many persons were OF
the opinion that the boat would gain
more in speed than she lost of her time
allowance, while the sarcastic ones asked
what difference it made to boat that
was beaten 10 minutes to take Is seconds
off of her allowance. At any rate the
New York Yacht Club, and especially
the owners of the Vigilant, show COM
medable spirit of generosity in allowing
the Englishman to make change. 1t is
a well-known rule in yachting circles
that yacht cannot make any changes in
her rig during club course of races.
The Vigllant people are evidently so
sure of eventually winning that they
think they can afford to display to what
extremes of generosity an American can
