Sec. Cages Currency Plan.

The plan now attributed to the Sec
rotary Is, first, the separation of the
issue and redemption department of the
Treasury from the ordinary functions of
the IfeaSurA-a plan contemplated by
the bond bill, which passed the House
two years ago to turn over to this de
partment l25 millions of the gold in the
Treasury, to be used only for redemption
purposes, and also all the silver dollars
now held for redemption of silver Ger
tticates ard all the silver bullion aud
dollars held under the act of 1890
Second, turn over to this redemption
bureau $200,00O, 900 of greenbacks as
they come into the treasury, to be eX-
changed only for gold, such gold also to
be held for redemption.
Third, authorize the refunding of out
standing per cent interest bearing coin
bonds into ~ per cent. gold bonds on
equal terms.
Fourth, amend the national bank act
as follows: by permitting national banks
of $25 900 capital to be organized in any
place having population of 1000 or
less; by reducing the tax on circulation
to one-half of one per cent; by allowing
banks to issue circulating notes to the
par value of the bonds deposited as
security; by allowing banks to further
issue their notes to an amount equal tc
the greenbacks, treasury notes aud silver
certificates they may deposit in the
treasury and in certain cases - pr cent
more, with the privilege TO the treasury
of substituting bonds tor them; and nv
levying tax of , per cent on unsecured

Of The Liquor Trade.

1t creates no wealth, it earns nothing,
It lives upon the earnings of other trades
II adds nothing whatever to the wealth or
power of the State, nor to the prosperity
or comfort Of the people. This trade is
wasteiull like war; it destroys more of the
wages of the people and the results of use
full industries, than "war, pestilence and
famine combined :" it creates more
than three fourths of the poverty, pauper-
ism and crime of the country, and more
than oneh half of the insanity; it inficts a
premature and shameful death upon more
than sixty thousand people annually; it
transforms hundreds of thousands of good
Industrious citizens into drunkards, vaga-
bonds and tramps it sends an infinite
misery into hundreds of thousands of
homes it puts the people down and keeps
them down; its effect is to make the
people ignorant, coarse, vulgar, brutal
enemies to law, order and good govern
ment. Such are part of the certain effects
of this trade. There is not now and
never has been in this country a locality
where the policy of license has diminished
the liquor traffic or the evils coming from
it. No one has ever suggested that under
license the demand for liquor would not
be fully met and freely supplied. The
friends of temperance in Maine will never
consent to establish by law and give legal
protection to trade which inhicts far
more evil upon the community than comes
from all other causes of evil combined

Old, Young People.

People age quickly in this American
life, and instances of preservation of
youthful strength and vigor in mature
years are pointed to as remarkable. We
are educated to believe in early decay of
physical beauty and strength, especially
in our women, and permit the decline to
continue with passing sigh. Most
women have a worn look in the early
tWenties, the figure loses its roundness.

that time on they age rapidly. All this
is wrong aud unnecessary. Let every

More deer have been shipped over the
Bangor and Aroostook railroad during
October than any month since the rail
road was opened. Last year during
October 1923 deer were shipped from
the different stations. Today the re-
cord for October of this year is about
400. This number Includes only game
carried away by sportsmen and not that
consumed in the camps and hotels in the
hunting season. 1t is estimated that
nearly 1000 deer have been killed this
MOI tn in the nor hern Maine gan e
region. The number of moose killed
would probably have been in excess of
last October's record, but open time this
year did not begin until October Is.

is purely vegetable, acts by giving tone
to the nerve centres in the stomach,
gently stimulates the liver and kidneys
