A Tribute to Neal Dow.

Now that press and pulpit all over the
world are chanting the praises of ''the
grand old man, who has just passed away
in the city of his nativity, it seems proper
to observe that no just estimate of Neal
Dow's achievements can be made up with
out considering the state of society and
the public sentiment as to dram drinking
in about 1S20-6 Anywhere within the
past half century it has been a tolerably
easy task to champion the most advanced
temperance principles and contend for
them in any presence and in any portion
of the world. Thousands of men have
done this without suspecting that their
conduct was notable or heroic-they had
simply done their duty; where SO many
We're doing likewise their efforts met the
commentator of quickened conscience,
and that was sufficient. But not SO sew
enty years ago, when ''the grand old
man" whose mantle has just been laid
aside was a boy at school and an active
participant in the lyceum debates. Then
the drink habit was very prevalent-the
country nation of drunkards, and pau
perism; crime and wretchedness was
abroad in the land to such an extent that
philanthropists became alarmed and had
but just commenced to look the monster
evil squarely in the face. The American
Temperance Society, then in its infancy,
was proclaiming that this vice was carry
ng annually to drunkards' graves more
than thirty thousand of our countrymen;
was taxing the people no less than forty
millions per year; and that the number
diseased, distressed and impoverished by
it, must be more than two hundred thous-
and. The doctrine of total abstinence as
the only safe remedy and as the true basis
OF the Temperance reform was first being
preached from the platforms by DR.. Ly-
man Beecher about the time that young
Neal Dow made the temperance speech to
the Portland engine company which in
duced his associates, in an organized ca
pacity at least, to stand for the principles
then regarded as fanatical, and held by
comparatively few of even the moral ele-
ment of our larger cities and towns. He
was a pioneer; and the impression he
made and the success he achieved clearly
evinceC his force, enthusiasm, ability,
and persistency. so as to the prohibitoTy
idea. The principle had been proclaimed
by John Wesley, in his famous ''poison-
ers- general decree; by the Friends and
other religious organizations; but all that
was quite ineffective until Neal Dow took
up and led in the fight for ENGRAVING that
principle upon the statutes of the State.
In all his long and adventurous life he has
been radical; he has been for reforming
bad customs and odious laws-and he hath
not lived in vain. The incidents of his
life and death, and the remarkable tribute
paid his memory by the nations as they
stood at his bier with uncovered heads,
demonstrates this more clearly than can

An Eminent Specialists Offer.

Some people are always going to the doc
tors and are never well. A large portion of
their income goes for doctors advice and
medicines that do no good. The question of
health is a vital one but the diseases that
ruin lives are the chronic nervous and blood
complaints that the local practitioner is
wholly unable to cope with. For all such
disorders, for all diseases arising out of the
blood and nerves, the remedies discovered
by DR.. Greene, of 81 Temple Place. Boston,
Mass, one of whose discoveries is the
world-famous Nervura, provide the cure.
These remedies are so uniformly successful
that they demonstrate themselves to be
what they really are, the provision made by
nature for the cure Of such ills. This great
specialist discovered them after years of
search and practice, and they have brought
health to thousands.
DR.. Greene charges nothing for consulta-
ton and gives his advice, which is the ad-
vice of his great experience also, absolutely
free. Every person, rich or poor, is well
come to consult him, either personally or by
letter. The consultation inspires hope and
the treatment cures.

After Meeting Mrs. Richards of Frankfort, Maine,
Who Had Passed her One Hundre 9TH Birthday.
A century old Amid the strife and storm
| When pillows rolled
Or when life's sky serene and mild, bent low

A monument of time she still remained,
Through grace Divine,
To greet, and smile, and tell the years agone,
Line upon line.
Oftimes the reaper garnering mid her fields,
In contact nigh,
Had shook the hardy stem, yet harmlessly
Had passed her by.
Like rlpened grain awaiting harvest scythe,

She stood, an emblem of life we'll spent,
Grandly arrayed.
I sat beside her, and thus ran my thoughts
In silent muse:

Phased by Fashion.

The prisoner dragged before the Judge

expensive clothes were tumbled, dusty

gray, his eyes were bloodshot, his hands
twitched spasmodically; he was bent, and

St. Clair and n. B. Allen. Action on ac-
count to recover $3.50 for merchandise
Flalntlfts are incorporated and are engaged

ginger ale, and various drinks of that
character. The stock of the company is
largely held in Rockland, Mr.. E. S. Bird be-

contract with defendants, then composing
the firm of St. Clair 4 A len of this city, to
handle all their goods as agents except in
Belfast and Bangor, where they had local
agents. Defendants sold their goods under
the contract, shipping them to various points.
During the time the contract was in force
complaint was made about the quality of
some OF the goods shipped to defendants,
ana large quantity of them were laid aside
and not sold. They We're stored, and moth
ing was done about them until the contract
had expired, in February, 1896, and the par
ties undertook to make final settlement
Plaintiffs claim that as the goods We're not
returned, they should be paid for Defend
ants claim the plaintiffs were notified that
the goods We're not marketable on account
of their poor quality and the way they
We're stored by direction of the president of

accepting them as returned. There were
various other issues, some of them involv-

returned, but not paid for because they were
not of good quality. Plaintiffs claim that

The Old Dress.

What shall we do with the poor old dress,
Fit to be cast aside
Long ere out of life's storm and stress
Its busy owner died?
Not worth remaking, and room is scarce,
And to leave it hung in its place
Means sudden pangs of a scarce-healed woe
And a lost, beloved face.
Yet that dress was shabby that close beside
Another of silk might hang,
And it brushed its neighbor nesting there
With never grudging pang.
For the heart that beat in the shabby gown
Loved the heart in the silken dress,
And left it lesson of lifelong love
And patient unsehshness.
o silent witness of mother-love
Till the warm heart fell asleep
Good enough for the mothers year.
Then good enough to keep!
Fold it away with reverent hands
And quiet and loving tears,
Then pray for the heart in the silken dress
Through the motherless coming years!
