Washinl;on's Centennial.

The centennial of the founding Of
the nations capital is celebrated, to-
day The observance of the occa-
sion is a quiet affair. consisting main
~ Of exercises by Congress with an
address by Senator Hoar as the lead
ing feature. II was just 100 years ago
that the city, the site being selected
and the city planned by the Father Of
his Country himself. became the seat
of government. 1t was eminently
fitting that the city should bear his
name, and it stands and will stand
while generations pass as the great
ast and most enduring monument TO
MS memory. greater and more endur-
.ng than that massive granite shaft
which stands beside the Potomac for
the world to wonder at and admire.
The city of Washington is but one of
many evidences We have of George
Nashington's wisdom and foresight.
The American capital is new city
n comparison with most of the CAPT
tails of the Old World. Their remote
origin is lost in the mist Of CEN
.uries and about them there hovers
the charm that is given by ancient
associations and old traditions. But
not one of them is more beautiful or
more happily located than our own
Washington. Moreover, it contains
some of the greatest products Of
architecture in the world. and like
he country it represents its progress
md growth has not a parallel Best
If all. it is the seat of the greatest
and best government that exists.
Washington is the fitting capital OF
he American republic. The CEN
tennial Of its founding is an i'm
1ortant occasion.

The Massachusetts, Semicoioa.

II the temperance people of Massa-
thrsetts fail to add the semicolon TO
the list Of the ernblems of their faith.
they will be sadly lacking in the
gratitude justly due this little mark
of punctuation. 1t has recently served
them good turn, and caused no end
of gloom in the ranks of the enemy.
The presence of a semicolon in a law
of the commonwealth has caused the
judges of Massachusetts to give the
law new Interpretation so that now
hotel cannot serve even a guest any
liquor after II P. NJ. And IL o'clock is
not late in a Boston hotel The hotel
keepers, who pay $1,000 for their IL
cense are saying some very hard
things about careless lawmakers and
literal law-interpreters.
The story of the Bay State semi
colon begins in 1875 when the following
statute was passed by the great and
general court:
mo sale Of spirituous or intoxi-
eating liquor shall be made between
the hours of II at night and in the
morning, nor during the Lords day.
except that if the licensee is also Ii
eensed as an innholder he may supply
such liquor to guests who have re-
sorted 10 his house for food or lodg
ing
The presence of that comma after
morning" is worth noting. 1t allowed
the hospitable landlord to supply fire
water TO his guests, at least, from
midnight until morning. But in 1881
when the laws We're consolidated
somebody. frivolous typewriter
girl. legislative humorist or shrewd
temperance crusader. replaced that
innocent comma with an awful semi
colon. See the difference in the read
ing of the section:
No sale of spirituous or inIoxi-
eating liquor shall be made between
the hours of IL at night and in the
morning: nor during the Lords lay.
except that if the licensee is also Ii
censed innholders he may supply
such liquor to guests who have re-
sorted to his house for food or lodg-
ing.
A few years later the hour was
changed from u TO II. but the semi
colon had not been noticed and was not
disturbed. Then some temperance
agitator noticed it and insisted on the
law being interpreted as ii reads. The
judges of the supreme court have done
so and the landlords of the Hub are mad
as the proverbial wet hens. The legal
as we'll as the literary value of
punctuation is not to be laughed at
Perhaps il would be better for the law
makers TO put all their punctuation
marks together at the end of the sec
ton and allow the courts to arrange
them at their discretion.

ALL RIGHT IN BISCUITS
But a Poor Medicine.

Common soda is all right in it's
place and indispensa BILE in the kitchen
and for cooking and washing purposes.
but soda was never intended for medi-
cine and people who use il as such will
some day regret il.
The common use of soda 10 relieve
heartburn and sour stomach is a habit
which thousands Of people practice. al
most daily. and one which is fraught
with danger. soda gives only temper airy
relief and in the end the stomach
trouble gets worse and worse.
The soda acts as a mechanical irri-
tant to the walls Of the stomach and
bowels and cases are on record where
it accumulates in the intestines. caus-
ing death by inflammation or perito-
nitis.
Dr. Harlandson recommends as the
safest and surest cure for sour stomach
(acid dyspepsia) the daily use after
meals Of an excellent preparation, sold
by druggists under the name Of
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets. These tab
let's are large 20 grain lozenges. pleas
ant to the taste and containing the
natural peptones and digestive ele-
ments necessary to good digestion and
which all weak stomachs lack.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets used
regularly after meals digest the food
promptly and thoroughly before il has
time to ferment. sour and poison the
blood and nervous system.
Dr. Wuerth states that he invari-
ably uses and recommends Stuarts
Dyspepsia Tablets in all forms OF
stomach arrangement and finds them a
certain cure. not only for sour stomach,
but by causing prompt digestion of the
food they create healthy appetite, in
crease flesh. and strengthen the action
of the heart and liver.
They are not a cathartic and contain
no violent drug but are intended only
for stomach diseases and faulty diges
ton and generally acknowledged to be
the most reliable cure for any stomach
trouble except cancer of the stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets now en-
Joy an international reputation and
popularity and are sold by druggists
everywhere in the United States,
Canada and Great Britain.

HIN CHILD

If a child is thin, let him
take a little of SCOTS emulsion
of cod-liver oil.
Some children like it too
we'll; begin with a little. A
half or quarter-teaspoonful is
enough at first, if the stomach
is weak; but increase, as you
find the stomach will bear.
The effect is: the little one
takes on strength; gets hungry;
eats and is happy; gets fat-he
ought to be fat-and gets
healthy.
Well send you little to try if you like.

When the divine afIiatus stirs III
Aroostook county it stirs good and

gives us the following picture of an
Aroostook poet in good working order:
Several weeks ago our friend. II. w.

write piece of poetry, and in the
course Of his attack of spasmodic
poetical inspiration, during which his
temperature run up 10 los and his
pulse to 120. he produced the lines
which appeared in the StarHerald
several weeks ago. Spratt says that
since they We're published he has had
a vague impression on his mind that
the lines were incomplete. and he has
been constantly haunted by the feeling
that there was a verse hanging fire.
This has caused him to have cold
feet. furred tongue and loss OF APP
petite. The other night he awoke just
as the town clock was striking
twelve. and felt at once that the lack
ing verse was stirring within him
very much as a good smart cathartic
might. Spratt accordingly arose in
his nlght-shirt and obeying the poetic
impulse, went TO his desk. and in five
minutes had struck OF the missing
verse. The next morning he called his
business force together and read it 10
them. and Spratt says two OF the
girls tainted away. and that il wilted
all the artificial flowers in the store
