But few months ago. when Prof.
Crouch was very ill, and the word had
by mistake orept into the newspapers
that he lay upon his death bed, the fol-
lowing exquisite verses were written by
Mr.. James Whitoomb Riley, addressed
to the dying composer of Kathleen
Mavourneen
Kathleen Mavourpeen, the song is still
ringing,
AS fresh and as clear as the tril of
bird.
In world weary hearts it is sobbing and
singing,
In pauhos too sweet for the tenderest
word.
o, have we forgotten the one who first
breathed it?
And have we forgotten his rapturous
art?
Our need to the master whose genius be-
questhed it:
o, why art thou SILENT thou voice of
my heart?
Kathleen Mavourneen, thy lover still lin
gers,
The long night is waning-the stars
pale and few,
Thy sad serenader with tremulous fin
gers,
Is bound with his tears as the lily with
dew.
The old harpstrings quaver. the old voice
is shaking,
In. signs and in sobs means the yearn-
-.--- ing refrain;
The old vision dims and the old heart is
breaking
Kathleen Mavourneen, inspire US again
We of Portland who have heard him
| sing this song In his old age, with his
voice grown weak and his hands tremb-
| ling above the keyboard of the piano,
are not likely soon to forget the impress
| sion. He loved ever to sing it, and the
spirit still was willing after the flesh had
become weak.
| Prof. Crouch came to us few weeks aR 10,
| to spend again his birthday, his eighty
eighth, at the welcome home of his friends.
In spite of bis recent illness, he seemed
strong in many ways, ready and glad to
meet old acquaintance, to sing and play
his songs, to go about the .oity. No one
himself. His mind was still active, still
trying to put into verse, the thoughts
that came to him.
Only tho day before his strength failed
him, his attention was caught by the
rustling and falling in the wind Of the
leaves OF woOdb1ne outside the VIII
dow. Like prophet he found a similtude
to his own life and he wrote several
stanzas, beginning:
"Wiera autumn leaves are falling"
Not soon will his venerable figure fade
out of our memory, nor bis Irish
madrigal lose its charm.
Kathleen Mnvourneen, awake from thy
Slumbers,
The blue mountains glow in the sums
golden light.
Ali where is the spell that once hung OF
my numbersP
! Arise in thy beauty, thou star of my
night!

WRONG AND RIGHT EATING.
ONE MAKES US WEAK; THE OTHER
MAKES US STRONG.

Wrong eating makes us weak because it
doesn't noIrish us. 1t poisons us, because
it sets up poisonous fermentation in cur
stomach and the poisons goes into our blood
Wrong eating is eating iudigestible food, or
eating more than our stomach is able to di.
gest.
Right eating is eating digestible food, food
that the stomach is able to digest, food that
will nourish you when it is digested.
Right eating strengthens and invigorates the
body, gives endurance, increases weight and
restores health.
Wrong eating can be made right by taking
the Shaker Digestive Cordial. This prepara-
tlon made by the Shakers from simple roots
ana wine, is delicious, refreshing and strength
ening to the body. 1t is a powerful aid to d.
gestion.
1t does not act by strongly stimulating the
stomach, but with its own digestive ferrnents
acts on the food and the stomach, and reduces
instead of increasing, the work which the
stomach has to do.
This is why it increases your strength, why It
will cure YOU of all the bad effects of indiges-
ton and Of insufficient nourishmsnt, and puri-
ties your system of all dangerous indigestive
poisons, when nothing else has been found to re-
lieVe you.

III aine Industry.

An order for three million feet of
spruce deals has been received in Ban
gor. it is said, and the deals will be
shipped soon. The order is given to sew
eral prominent firms. and the total is
divided amongst them in uneven quanti-
ties, ranging from $780, 500 upwards.
Shipments will be made in three steam
ers all Of which will be of English regis
ter. The contract calls for the begin
ming of work SO that by the first OF Sep
TENDER the first shipment will be ready
A number of the sardine factories In
Eastport have begun work OF last years
prices and the signing of the 'papor, 4"
which caused delay of W days was
given up by the packers. The men
agree not to go out on strike this fall
and this was why the agreement was re-
GENTLY drawn up for their signature. The
last loafer has left the cor ers and in all
parts of PASSPORT can be detected more
business like feeling. I n few days all
the factories will probably be opened for
the fall pack of sardines and this means
employment to about 5000 people. The
merchants are highly pleased at the pres
emit situation of affairs
The Washington County blueberries
packers will can small stock this year as
the market for that kind of goods il
very weak. The berries must be bought
low and canned cheap 10 afford any mar
gin at all. The Columbia Falls Packing
Co.. has commenced TO put up blueber-
ries and finds them yet quite green. On
account of the wet season they are later
than common. The pickers are movin g
on to the BURBERRY barIens. where they
will remain as long as the factories run.
The can makers at the South Paris
corn factory will finish the season 3
work this week. They have made
over 100000 cans, and it ia expected
that more will be needed for the seasons
pack.
The new dam at Canton Falls will
be $40 feet long, 70 feet wide at the bot
tom and IS feet high. 1t will take one
| and one-half million feet of lumber when
oonplsted. The cost of the dam is esti-
mated at fifty Thousand dollars. There
arc at work at the present time some
$50 men. The co1ferdam includes nearly
| one acre of lard which was taken out of
the river, and which Is as dry as any Or
binary field. The length of the Golfer
| dam on both sides is 1850 feet.
