Old Town will remain at their cottage

The Northport Mountain Spring Water
Co. will greatly enlarge and improve its
plant this fall. Leonard Metcalf, hydraulic
engineer of Boston, was at the Camp Ground
last week and made surveys for the propos-
ed improvements. The water now comes
from spring on the hill mile and a half
back of the Camp Ground at an elevation of
about 800 feet above tide water, and is
brought to the Camp Ground in pipes laid
on the surface, as the system is only in use
in warm weather. This season the hotel
and go cottages have been supplied from
this source, but the company intend to do a
much larger business in the future. The
company will begin at once to put in
reservoir of 200, 900 gallons capacity on the
hill directly in the rear of the Camp Ground,
and having an elevation of $50 feet above
mean low water. This will give working
pressure of 40 pounds to the square inch at
the hotel. The top of the hill has a shoal
loamy soil with hard mpervious clay sub
soil. The reservoir will be dug into this
clay, saucer shaped, and the sides paved to
prevent washing. The clay taken out in ex-
cavating will be used to build a wall around
the outside, thus increasing the height of
the reservoir and consequently the pressure
The company intends to build and IL the
reservoir this fall and to be ready for bust
ness next season.

We are sorry to learn that ''everything

Perhaps this is intended to apply also to
the talked OF change of policy at Lewiston :;
but Judging from the expressions we have
heard from those who attended the bio
fairs this season running things wide
open is not likely to prove profitable in
the end, Most Of those who visited the
fairs are already sufficiently disguised; and
return to the original purpose and
methods OF our agricultural fairs would
seem to be urgently demanded. The
Farmer is clearly in the right in insisting
that the State should not give money to
So-calIed agricultural fairs which are
simply an aggregation of swindling de-
vices and shows of doubtful morality
This is clearly wanton mis- use of the
peoples money.
The Gardiner Reporter Journal says of
the patriotic speeches at the recent meet

The grand refrain was Maine, first, last
and always; Maine money for Maine en-
terprises; Maine men for Maine positions
of trust and responsibility; Maine, Maine,
Maine. That is right, too. A State that
has sent its energetic sons into almost
every section of the country, who to- day
are first and foremost in the professional
and business circles of their adopted
homes, ought certainly be able to furnish
brains and Drawn for her own enterprises.
Give the Maine boy chance in preference
TO outsiders, and to come down nearer
home, give the Gardiner boy the prefer
ence for Gardiner positions
A like spirit should pervade every COM
munity. The amount of energy expended
in opposing needed improvements, and in
tearing down, if devoted to building up
would accomplish wonders in the way OF
promoting general happiness and pros
perity. -.

On the morning of Sept. 18th, at the home
of r. B. Williams in Canaan where she had
gone for short visit, Mary j., wife of
the late Rev. John Cook of Durham, pass
ed away after short illness from heart
trouble, leaving daughter, Mrs. Augustine
Fletcher, in Reno, New stepdaughter,
Mrs. Geo Berry, in Burnham, and two sons,
John, the eldest, in the West, and E. w.
Cook, conductor on the Belfast freight
train, living i'll Watervlle, with other rela-
tives and friends to mourn, while large
circle of friends sympathize with them in
their bereavement.
For many years she was the faithful wife
of preacher of the gospel, where her rare
refinement and purity OF character made
her deep plety more apparent IN deeds than
in words. AS a mother her tender selt-sacrl-
ticing love for her children was unsurpassed; ;
a warm and constant FRIEND a kind and
sympathetic neghbor, always ready to assist
the needy, she was loved most by those who
knew her best, and will be deeply lamented.
During her illness she was perfectly resign
| ed and made all arrangements for the future
with mind at rest, trusting in God Dur
ing her life of IS years. Sister Cook was
called to pass through deep and trying atf1ic-
tions. Two days before her death, in speak
| ing OF dear son who was accide ntally kill
ed, she said: ooh. the tears that have shed
but over there all tears will be forever
wiped from their eyes; what a heaven that
| will be to me, and spoke of the joyous well
come she expected on the other shore. When
asked if the night seemed long, she replied
cit will be morning by and by, eternal
morning" Her son, Emery W., was with
her during the last week Of her life, and all
that affection could devise medical aid
procure was done for her comfort in her last
hours. Being the only one privileged to be
near her the blow falls heavily on him
and much sympathy was expressed in the
community for his great sorrow

People often wonder why their nerves are
SO weak; why they get tired so easily;
why they start at every slight but
sudden sound; why they do not sleep
naturally; why they have frequent
headaches, indigestion and
Palpitation of the Heart.
The explanation is simple. 1t is found in
that impure blood which is contin-
ually feeding the nerves upon refuse
instead of the elements of strength and
vigor. in such condition opiate and
nerve compounds simply deaden and
do not cure. Hoods Sarsaparilla feeds
the nerves pure, rich, red blood; gives
natural sleep, perfect digestion, self

To THE EDITOR OF The JOURNAL: At
the time you wrote the above commentary
you We're probably not aware that arrange
ments were well advanced for the location
in Belfast of a creamery, which will not
only do as well for the farmers tributary
to Belfast, and all other interests of Bel
fast which will be promoted by having a
creamery here, as would have been had the
proposed butter factory been located
here, which was talked of last season. but
l hope much better. | have felt DESTROYS
of having creamery in Belfast in the in
terest of the farmers near here, and have
kept the matter under consideration dur
ing the summer. am pleased now to
announce, what many of the citizens of
Belfast already know, that after meeting
Mr.. F. c. Baker in Boston number of
times arrangements have been made
which now promise the opening by him of
'Creamery'' which will be such an in
stitution in fact as well as in name.
Mr.. Baker has been located on Foster S
wharf, Boston. some years, buying cream
OF Maine farmers and selling it about
Boston The distributing part of his
business is well established. He has now
hired the store recently occupied by F. A.
knoWlton. near the foot of Main Street
and will shortly have it arranged for the
reception, treatment, storage and ship
ment of cream and its products
AS the larger part of his cream will be
sold direct 10y him as cream. to the retail
trade, he can undoubtedly pay the farm
ers larger prices for cream or milk than
one could to manufacture it into butter,
and it is for that reason that | say the
prospect is better than it would have
been had the butter factory been estab-
lished here.
| am much pleased at the prospect in
behalf of the farming community |
hope they will be disposed to sell their
milk or cream to Mr.. Baker and so derive
the benefit which usually accrues to a
dalrying business.
Yours very truly,
A. c. SHELLEY.

Belfast to Have Creamery.

The new creamery at Ellsworth, John c.
Gordon proprietor, is doing fine business
at butter making. From a small beginning
it now has the patronage of over 700 cows.
The products is chiefly marketed in the
eastern part of the State. Exchange
1t is much to be regretted that the move
mept for a creamery in Belfast was unsec-
cessful. 1t was shown that there were cows
enough available to make the enterprise a
success, and the market for good butter is
never overstccked. Why not try it again?
