The Hearing in Regard to the New Power
House.

Before the Deering City Government
last evening, hearing was given in re-
gard to the new power house which the
Portland Street Railroad Company pro-
pose to erect at Deering bridge. Superin-
tendentNewman appeared.for..t the railroad
company, and explained briefly what the
company proposed to do
| Alderman Clarence W. Small having
asked some questins in regard to space,
Mayor Mitchell stated that City Engi-
neer Barbour had take en- measurements
and had found that the new building
would not interfere with any future
widening Of Forest avenue.
| No opposition appeared to granting
the permit.
| The people OF Morrill's corner will not
be sorry to have the electric railroads
power house removed from their midst.
The vibrations of the immense machines
has caused a strange shaking of the
earth. This shaking is most disagree
ably perceptible to psople; hut it grad
ually causes dishes to shake off shelves.
At first the manifestations seemed ghost
| like until they were understood. AT
Westbrook Seminary it is difficult TO
keep bric-a- brao ornaments on the man
ties.
The new power house at Deering bridge
will have foundation that will prob
ably take up all, vibrations, without
shaking surrounding territory. &

appeared


A foreign medical journal is authority
for the statement that tablespoonful
of glycerine in hot milk or cream will
at once relieve the most violent attack
of coughing. This is simple, easily
obtained and harmless remedy, and if
it keeps good it's promise will prove to
be of great value. Equally as simple
and quite as effective is the use of
glycerine spray through an atomizer.
This is applied directly to the inflamed
or irritated surfaces, and gives almost
instant relief. In attacks of influenza,
colds in the head, sore throat and like
troubles, glycerine mixed with three
times it's bulk of water, boiled and
cooled, is an invaluable remedy. A
little practice will enable the patient
to fill the lungs with the spray, and
the soothing and cooling effect is re-
markable. Mixed with an equal bulk
of sulphurous acid, glycerine is an al
most unfailing remedy for throat
troubles of all kinds, and being harm
less, can be used by all people. 1t
must, however, be freshly made, as it
keeps but a short time after mixing.

Railroad Telephones.

In france the management of some
OF the railroad companies think of re-
placing the telegraph by the telephone,
even for the transmission of important
orders There are some railroads
with light traffic where the telephone
IS already used, but the entire substi-
tuition of the telephone would be diff
cult. The single iron conductors used
for telegraph would not be suitable,
and it would be necessary 10 establish
special telephone lines with double
wires. On the Vincennes railroad, in
the stations between Paris Bastile and
La Narenne, which are at distances of
about one mile, at signal by tele-
graph the telegraph wires are con-
nected with the telephone instruments
and are thus made available for
an extended telephone inter-
course. The arrangement gives
excellent results. The Northern
railway of France has established
on trial telephone stations on the open
road along some of it's main lines,
through which assistance can be sum-
moned from the stations in case of ac-
cident. The stations are equipped
| with telephone receivers. Portable
telephone instruments are in use on
some small French roads. The large
Austrian railroads use field telephone
instruments of the Gattinger system,
| which in a few minutes can be con-
nected with the telegraph wires at
any point, their use not interrupting
the telegraphic communication. I'm
der favorable conditions conversation
is possible at distance up to thirty
! one miles. In England telephone con-
nectiOn between block signal stations
is csmmon. On the seven large French
railroads there were in use in January,
1898, about 1,21O telephones, against
$500 telegraph stations.

Effects of Coffee on Temperaments.

Effects of Coffee on Temperaments.
Coffee as medicine in many forms
of disease is recognized as of great
value. 1t is also most irritating to
many persons, and gives rise to symp-
toms of grave character. An in
stance is given by an eminent French
medical man of a family who became
possessed of most astonishing ten
dency to quarrel. There were quite a
number of persons in the household
and several servants were employed.
So frequent and serious did the out
breaks become that physician was

ing no physical provocation for such
state of affairs, began to look for other
reasons. He ascertained that the low
err part of the dwelling was used as a
coffee warehouse. The volatile es-
sence of the coffee had penetrated
every portion of the living apartments,
and the inmates had become so thor
oughly saturated with it that their
nervous systems were entirely demon
allied. Hypochondria, hysteria and
angry demonstrations amounting to
positive fury were the order of the
day. The family were sent away to
the sea shore, and after remaining
some weeks returned to town and took
up new apartments. After few
months all traces of the malady dis

While the French have brought their
study of road locomotives for passen-

practice the English engineers have
fallen back from their position in the

public interest with its brother of the

the dearth of actual experiment by I'M

situation, however, is not without

rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the

Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
