She Was a Mother.

When you have painfully climbed
one high hill and find there is another
as high, perhaps higher, to climb,
you lose courage.
Mrs. r. f. Anderson, of Cumber-
land, Maine, lost courage.
You should hear her story, which
is an ungarnshed statement Of fact,
and has been attentiyely listened
to by her friends, and hundreds
besides.
| heard it from her own lips, and
was SO impressed that / remember
every circumstance of the event, even
the date, which was March 9th, 1900.
She told me that her four children
were all afflicted with diphtheria at
the same time, and that the youngest,
boy seven years of age, was sick
nigh unto death.
1t was a high hill that she climbed
at this time; it was difficult, too;
and when she had climbed it she felt
that her own resources of strength and
endurance had been greatly tasked,
and she felt the need OF rest.
But the disease had left the boy
very weak. He was constantly grow
ing weaker, and gradually losing mus
cular power in his body and limbs:
and her anxiety was increased by SYM
pathetic neighbors, who whispered
- Paralysis.
She found there was another, prob
ably higher and more difficult hill
to climb, and she lost COURAGE but
not all the courage she had, for she
was a mother.
The boy grew worse. His con-
diton became such as to move the
stoutest heart, and, said Mrs. Ander-
son, had nearly despaired of saving
him, having tried many different medi-
cines TO no purpose whatever, when I
began giving him Hoods Sarsaparilla.
At first that medicine did not seem to
do him much good; but it had much
to do before it could make all its effects
manifest. II had to cleanse and enrich
blood that had been poisoned and
impoverished, and to recover, strength
en-, and tone system that had been
Frustrated and debilitated by the
malevolenee of one of the worst OF all
diseases. / had faith in it and gave it
fair trial. and in a short time the boy
ceased to complain, began to regain
the muscular power he had lost, and
to eat well, and at the end of three
months was able to attend school
part of the time. 1t was not long
before he was well, strong boy,
and the benefit he derived from the
medicine was permanent. He is now
the picture of health.
Mrs. Anderson thinks Hoods Sarsa-
parilla wonderful, and recommends it
on all occasions. She has reason to
do SO. Many others, who also recon-
mend it, have reason to do SO, too.

and the full board OF aldermen.
In Eastport, where the citizens ticket
has been elected several successive years,
Charles M. Buxton, republican, was
elected by plurality Of thirty-four over
the citizens candidate. The republicans
also elected six OF the eight aldermen.
Westbrook republicans elected their
mayor and eleven OF the thirteen alder
men.
South Portland elected republican
mayor, four republican and three demo-
cratic aldermen.
In Waterviile the citizens elected mayor

three aldermen are republicans.

republican, his only opposition being

THE ODD FELLOWS.
Ellsworth Entertained Many of Them
Last Friday.

Last Friday.
The convention OF Odd Fellows OF the
forty first and forty-second districts,
which include the Hancock county
lodges, was held at Ellsworth last Friday.
IL was the first convention OF these dis
tricts, and as an inaugural, 1t established
q record which subsequent conventions
will have hard work to excel.
The lodges In the districts are Bluehill,
Brooklin, Bar Hsrbor, Ellsworth, North
east Hsrbor and Southwest Harbor.
Every one OF these lodges was represented
by large delegations, and there were many
visitors from other lodges. Over 800 Odd
Fellows were present from out of town,
but Ellsworth hospitality, always capable
OF being stretched little, was equal to
the occasion.
The grand lodge officers present were
Grand Master S. p. Felker, OF Clifton, and
Grand Warden Leon #. Higgins, OF
Brewer. The grand secretary was unable
to be present.
The convention was called to order by
Charles II. Leland, OF Ellsworth, district
oeputy VI tHe fuftf -hIst bistfct, WIZ
presided at the convention.
In the afternoon Bluehiil lodge worked
the initistory degree and Ellsworth lodge
the first degree. At 80 a banquet such
as the Ellsworth Odd Fellows are famous
for, was served. Nearly 400 Odd Fellows
were fed.
After supper, work was resumed, South
west Harbor working the second degree
and Bar Harbor the third. The work
throughout the day was we'll done, and
each team received due praise from the
visiting grand officers and the other Odd
Fellows.
At midnight refreshments were served,
and after cigars were lighted the Odd
Fellows returned again to the upper hall
where they we're entertained by Bar Har
Dor brethren with a "side degree" which
included spectacular features.

ARTHUR w. GREELY

FIRST ELLSWORTH MAYOR TO RECEIVE
THAT oR-DEMooRATs RETAIN
BALANCE OF POWER.

Arthur w. Greedy. democrat, has won
the distinction of being the first Els
worth mayor who has received the honor
OF election for third term. The honor
was won Monday In a municipal contest
close and exciting, but notably free from
personalities, and with no bad feeling on
eithes side.
The contest was fairly fought and fairly
won, the republicans gaining one alder
man over last year, but failing by the
narrow margin OF four votes--Alderman

balance of power in municipal affairs.

NJ. Delaney, of the French Acad-
emy of Sciences, recently announced
the result of curious investigation
concerning the preferred numbers
of the inha abitants of different coun-
tries. The basis of the investigation
is study of the various denomina-
tions of money, postage stamps and
other measures. 1t appears that near
ly all races show marked preference
for the numbers "two," three" and
''five," and their multiples. But the
Mohammedans avoid the number
''three." "Neither in Turkey nor in
Persia" says NJ. Delaney. docs one
find a trace of this number, and it is
scarcely found in Egypt" Among the
French and other Latin peoples two"
and "five" are more popular than
"three," while the English prefer
"two" and "three" and the Germans
"tbree' and '.fiye." The Chinese re
semble the Latin race in their choice
while the people of India have strong
liking for "two." The number "seven"
is most used in Russia and other Slavic
The higher numbers are
not much used except in Spanish coun-
tries, as ''11" in Salvador, "17" in Mex
leo, "19" in Spain and ''31'' in the Phil
ippines. The people of Hawaii are
said to be quite foud OF f"13.".YoEth's

talk with God may not show it to his
fellows, but he knows within himself
the new power, calmness and equanim-
ity which he has gained, and he returns

glimpses C ".' Divine. And yet what
words can tell how 'Itterly insignifi-
cant man must feel himself ta- be
when he finds himself in the depths of
this great gorge, solitary and alone,
and finds not this Divine presence? !?
He may be king on his throne; .
despotic ruler in his office; monarch
in his store; tyrant in his workshop;
but here he is so dwarfed, made SO
small, that, if he have any soul at all,
he is humbled and made reverent at
this marvellous manifestation Of SUI
perior power, might and greatness"
The Grand Canyon district, with .
faint glimpse OF whose wonders we
have been made acquainted, lies in the
arid regions of southern Utah and
northern Arizona. 1t contains an area
which is roughly estimated at from
$4,000 to 10000 square miles, or about
the size Of the state of Maryland. In
this district there are, in less than 500
miles, $40 falls, cataracts and rapids
which, in beauty Of color or rock and
water effects, are without equals any
where on the earth.
Many famous men have from time to
time explored this district, among
them Lieut.. Ives, of the United States
corps of Typographical engineers;
Capt. George W. Wheeler, and Maj.
John Wesley Powell; but none has pre-
sented to the American people as
graphic an account of its marvels and
mysteries as that given by Prot.

mans nature, and it's contemplation
leads Prof. James to ask: "Who can
gaze upon this weird and wonderful
beauty and not feel that God must love
beauty for its own sake? The idea
that everything is formed solely as a
background upon which to display the
development of man takes powerful
hold upon us when we yield ourselves
to the persuasive eloquence of Brown-
ing, but a voice louder and more pow
erful than the great English masters
peals forth in ones own soul when he
gazes upon Gods great work here, and
he feels instinctively that the AL
mighty made this glorious grandeur
centuries Of centuries before man ever
could see it, in order that He, person.
ally, might enjoy its beauty. just as
the garments of Aaron the priest were
TO be made for glory and for beauty
SO do l think this great canyon was
made as revelation to man that God
loves to make things solely for glory
and beauty"
Still dominated by profound re-
ligious fervor, the author continues:
ITO me this canyon is the holy of
holies, the inner temple, where each
man may be his own high priest, open

A scene like the one described natu-
rally stirs the deepest emotions of
