Mr.. Bryan's selfshness is intellectual
therefore, and not moral. lie would be
willing to sacrifice what other men hold
dear. He is ready to accept almost
anything that other men would object to
In the way of wealth. comforts. Injuries
or amusements; but when honors, influ-
ehce and principles are being passed
around he insists upon being served first
what would be called egotism in other
men is merely consciousness of superior
Ivy IN Bryan. He has thought out prob
ierns 10 which other men nave given no
attention Therefore it is his right 10
teach He has labored and learned while
they have been idle Therefore he is
entitled to the honors and rewards. He
l. confident of his ability to do thinrs
and accept responsibilities for which other
men nave no special fitness Therefore
they should stand aside. He has formed
ms opinions after careful Investigation
ana reflection. Hence they are correct
lie Is conscious of his own rectitude Of
an unselfish ambition to promote the han
piness and welfare of mankind. and Of
MS ability to perform the duties of the
ONCE. Therefore he should be elected
PRESIDENT. This is not mere vanity and
conceit: 1t is sober conviction.

He has been showing some sense of hui

an attitude of establishment and exclaim-

When his attention was called to a

unnecessary vigor and intense bitterness

There is nothing of the demagogue in
Mr.. Bryan. He treats the humblest citi-

would show to Senator Jones or Richard
Croker, because the doctrine of equality
is part of his religion. He is less enthu-

of a Portland conosrn to place the ingre-

THE GRAND TRUNK EXCURSION.
Mr.. John LawIor, the Grand Trunk
ticket agent here, is kept busy these days
answering questions regarding the Grand
Trunk excursion from Portland to Que
bee, or Montreal, or both and the shrine
of Ste Anne De Beaupre. OF course to
devout Catholics, the famous shrine is
the special end Of the trip, but hundreds
will take advantage of the very low rates.
and Will go back for a brief visit to old
home scenes, or will see for the first time
the historic cities of the province OF Que
bee.
The word "historic" may properly be
applied to Quebec, and Montreal, especial
~ to the former. The change from Maine
to the provinces is great. The two cities
are worthy of much more than passing
notice, and the Grand Trunk offers tick
cts good from September %, until Octo-
or %.
At this season of the year the ride
through the mountains will be simply de-
ughtfuI, and the scene win change rapid
" enough to satisfy the most exacting
sight seer. The Grand Trunk offers Its
patrons their choice of several excur-
sions. They can go from Portland to
Ouebec,o or to Montreal, returning direct.
Or they can go to Quebec, and the shrine,
returning by way OF Montreal, or to Mon
treaI, returning by way of Quebec. Thos g
VINO do not desire to visit Ste. Anne DE
Beaunre. will tind that portion of the ex-
cursion dropped out, and their tickets
will cost so much less. In short the
Grand Trunk, in arranging for these ex-
cursions, tried to please everybody.

For Old Folks

It seems too bad when you see an
aged man or woman slowly hobb ing
along with the aid of a cane. In such
cases Omega Oil ought to be recon-
mended by all means. 1t should be
well rubbed into the joints and other
places on the body where there are
aches and pains. Omega Oil is a
blessing to old folks. 1t does them
so much good and gives so much re-
lief that no one can understand it
until the Oil is tried. Always rub
toward the heart in using Omega Oil,
to help the circulation Of the blood,
and never be afraid of it, for it can do
nothing but good. 707
