A tug and three barges arrived at Port
land last week, and Press says of them
Two of the barges presented the appear
ance of disabled schooners and the most of
the people on the water front were of the
opinion that the tug had come to the rescue
abled. This, however, did not prove to be
the case. The jibbooms and topmasts had
been especially taken out of these craft,
formerly SchOOners, and converted into
barges
This is a bad outlook for the coasting
trade What is to become of our sailing
craft when jibbooms and topmasts can be
s'cOnverted into barges 9"

LITERARY NEWS AND NOTES:

Miss Grace H. Boutelle of Bangor,
daughter of Congressman Boutelle, has
a gem of poem in the Junior MunSey
for November. 1t has moral as well
as music.
With its November issue The Cen
fury Magazine begins y ear of Romance

living writer's of fiction will contribute
to the magazine short stories, novels,
or NOVELTIES The reception acco rded
''The Helmet of Navarro" begun in the
August number, indicates that the pro-
posed departure will be popular one,
and with such names to conjure with
as Rudyard Kipling, Mrs. Burnett, Bret
Harte, Lew Wallace, Weir Mitchell,
Miss wilkins, Winston Churchill, How
ellis, James, Harris, Cable. Stockton,
Page, Anstey, and Ian Maclaren-to
note but these few-the conductors of
The Century are pretty sure to meet
the tastes of all lovers of fiction.
Miss Sarah Orne Jewett's ''The Tory
Lover" the opening chapters of which
appear in the Atlantic Monthly for
November, takes for it's theme the for
tunes of tine exiled Loyalists at the be-
ginning of the American Revolution
That portion of the present State of
Maine which has become Miss .Jewett's
country as completely as Mr. Har dy
has made WesseX his own domain, is
rich in provincial history. The fortunes
of the exiled Loyalists carry the scene
of Miss JeWett's stirring romance to
England and France, but her portraits
of Benjamin Franklin and John Paul
Jones and other Revolutionary heroes,
and her narration of American bravery
on the high seas. will delight the lover of
his country, as well as the thousands
OF admirers Of Miss .JeWett's steadily
maturing and beautifully veracious art.

POLITICAL POINTS. The political
sensation of the campaign occurred last
week in Grover Cleveland's letter stat
ing he is unchanged in his opinion of
four years ago. The letter cannot help
being a staggering blow at Bryan, and
will tend to bring many of the gold
Democrats to Mckinley. 1t will be of
great help to the Republicans in New
York, New Jersey, the middle and other
States that COUNT. Ex-S Secretary Car
Isle is reported to have said recently that
the Democrats really had no hopes of
carrying New York, either for the
gubernatorial or the presidential ticket.
.. Betting odds in New York are 3 to 1
that Mckinley will be elected. They
are also betting even that Mckinley
will have more than 100000 plurality IN
New York.

exposition, said the other day: ''The ex-
hibits of the United States at the expo
sition covered the classification more
nearly than those of any other country,
and the awards received, 2,475, exceed
ed those made to any other competitors.
Germany received 1926 awards, Great
Britain 1927 and Russia /, 493.
''The United States exhibited in 1O1
out Of 12O classes, a record not exceed
ed by any other country. The jury
work was most thoroughly organized,
and was most intelligently performed"
Prof. Gore said that the most aston
ishing results were those achieved by
the United States in the fine arts,
class in which we were not looked upon
formerly as serious competitors.

is 1T RIGHT
For an Editor to Recommend Patent Med
icines?

From Sylvan Valley News, Brevard, n. Q.
1t may be question whether the edtor
OF newspaper has the right to pupllciy
recommend any of the various proprietary
medicines which flood the Market YET
as preventive of suffering we feel 1t
duty to say a good word for Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Rem
edy. We have known and used this medi-
mine in our family for twenty years and
have always found it reliable. In many
cases dose of this remedy would save
hours of suffering while physician IS
awaited. We do not believe in depending
implicitly on any medicine for cure, but
we do believe that If a bottle of Cham
berlain's Diarrhoea Remedy were kept
on hand and administered at the incep-
ton of an attack much suffering might
be avoided apd in very many cases the
presence of a physician would not be re-
quired. At least this has been our exper-
fence during the past twenty years. For
sale everywhere. Bobbitt- Wynne Drug Co.,
