A small pimple on your face may
seem of little consequence, but it shows
your blood is impure, and impure blood
is what causes most of the diseases
from which people suffer. Better heed
the warning given by the pimple and

When the item about the little town
of Bowdoin having eight boys and girls
in college went the rounds of the press,
there was a murmur of applause, but
a correspondent had to spoil n good
thing by sending out a list Of the

heading the list with the name of
Grant Rogers.
The Bath Enterprise declares there
is no doubt that bicycling has reached
the zenith, of its popularity. There
are fewer dealers this year than last,
and probably next year there will be
fewer still. The dealers say that prices
have reached the point where there is
little profit in it, and what little there
is is eaten by the wear and tear of
those kept in stock. This has been a
good year in the bicycle business, but
the trade is surely falling off.

They say that Miss Knowlton.
Names first woman lawyer, is doing
SO well in Rockland, that the other
young lawyers. and some Of the older
ones, are positively jealous. She has
had five cases entered on the docket

has not yet tried ease, she has been
unusually successful in her settlements.
She has already won her legal spurs
and is entitled to all the rights and
benefits of the bar, except-well, ex-

even to these she has been courteously

remarks: "A compliment from Bangor
is worth having. In this connection let
us acknowledge that Bangor is not so
bad place after all; in fact the city
has no end of enterprise and is smart
and thriving municipality. Bangor has
many qualities which makes us proud
that the city belongs to Maine"
In a letter to the Bangor Commercial,
Old Orchard is thus sized up: Old Or

cursionist resort. E,xcursionists have
made it what it is. Its accessibility by

Chester is about five years of age, and is partly Newfoundland, part ly Gordon setter. He has the long, in telligent face of the setter, with almost human soft brown eyes, and the black, curly coat of the Newfoundland, the white tn his breast being the only white bout him.

Lord Kitchener Always earr.ed Whek
 Spy to Cheat Ills Enemies.


 Spy to Cheat LIS Enemies.
 There is pretty general impression that the work undertaken by the spy is invariably disgraeeful work, and that the professional military secret service agent is a more or less degrad- ed creature degraded, that is, for the time being, by the very nature of the mission he undertakes Of course. nothing could be further from the truth, There are spies and spies. The paid renegade, who for mere pay, un. dertakes to pry into and betray the secrets of his friends, stands upon an entirely different footing from the off. ger who, taking his life in his hands ventures into the eneEay's camp in or der to gratuitously to obtain informa. tion which may turn out to be of infin- ite Value to lis own intelligence de- partment. Lord Kitchener was a spy of this latter sort and it was his c1ev- erness, energy and resourcefulness in this capacity which first attracted to him the notice of his superiors. Alone and unarmed he plunged into the re- eolted Soudan in the autumn of 1889 and succeeded in penetrating, disguised bs a peddler of hurra cakes, as far as Omdurman itself. Here he saw a fei- low spy stripped naked, aogged till the flesh hung in ribbena from his body. and tken erueifed face downward ir the blazing sun. Ever afterward l. his wanderings among the wild deser' tribes, Kitchener carried with hiin tiny phial of cyanide of potassium. Az he tersely put it: q did not fear death but sueh a death!3'

Where Goldfisb Are propsgated.

About three niles south of St. Jos eph, on the King Hill road, is located one Of the Missouri state fish hatch- cries. It's chief interest lies in the fact that it is the only place in the state or in the country anywhere, where goldfish are propagated and dis tributed. Here these little aquarium beauties may be obtained for a mere thank you" and many are they who avail themselves of this privilege. From October until January four goldfish each are given to every citizen of ths state until the supply is exhausted.
