One-half months at a time, and taking
a decided interest in hunting and fish
ing. think that possibly the idea of
taxing NONRESIDENT hunters who
should go into your woods for, say, one
week or less, might be feasible; but
where a man with his family stays in
Maine several weeks, he usually finds
al the end of his stay that he has been
taxed quite as much as he feels willing
to bear. taking everything into ac-
count. for and against. Your woods
and waters, and their contents, are
your investment, YOUR stock in trade.
and it would hardly seem right TO re-
quire your patrons to buy your stock
for you, and then from you. From
personal observation. should say that
if the resident inhabitants of Maine
would obey present laws in regard to
hunting and fishing during the closed
season, there would be no trouble about
either fish or game keeping pace with
the fishing and shooting, and taking
into consideration the amount of
menoy annually spent in the state of
Maine by non-residents, it would seem
no more than fair and just that your
own people should keep up the attrac-
tions.--Wm. Henry Hall, Binghampton,
NJ Y.
In reply to your favor of the 18th
inst would say moose and deer hunt
ing I know nothing about. but ] think
the state of Maine will make a sad
mistake in taxing non-residents for the
privilege of fishing. So far as | can
judge. during the month of September
of last year at Mountain View, there
was not brought into the house or
shipped away 10 pounds per day, or
anything like it. although many We're
caught and returned to the lake. for
which the state of Maine, hotel rail-
roads, guides received $3.50. or $25 per
pound, ont of which it seems to me it
can we'll afford to pay its own watch
men TO guard such q gold mine. You
can tax people away, and can limit the
catch. and make the conditions so
strict that no one will go to Maine,
and you can sell your fish for probably
% cents per pound, instead of IS many
dollars If had such profitable goods
to sell. ] would be satisfied with get
ting one hundred times their value,
without asking the purchasers to pay
the watchmen's wages for guarding
my steck.--H. Mitchell, Philadelphia,
Penn.

FREE DISTRIBUTION.
Blood Wine Can be Sampled at
Drug Stores Without Cost.
Remarkably Popular Remedy Commends
Itself to Prominent Citizens.

In this age OF competition it is we'll to
be able to discriminate between the good
and thebad of everything. ltdoes not do
to judge too much by appearances, for
everything that glistens is not necessa-
riiy gold, or even silver, but in great
many instances simply old tin, polished
up. 1t is hard to be mistaken when one
first has an opportunity to make 4 thor
ough investigation and sample an article
free of charge, before buying. This is the
way the Louis Daudelin Co. of Worces-
ter, Mass, have placed upon tie market
their celebrated French medical com
pound, ''Blood Wine," and their earnest
request is that everyone in i'll health, 10
whose case their remedy is suited, shall
take advantages Of the privilege and sat
jsfy himself that there arc no misrep-
resentations, no extrayagant promises,
no misleading quotations and no false
testimonials. The Daudelin people en-
Joy the respect and friendship OF Massa-
chusetts citizens and wherever else that
they are known, and it is their desire TO
push this feeling of confidence and esteem
to the four corners Of the globe. Conse-
quently BLOOD Wine" bears the imprint
of honor throughout.
In order that everyone may know ex-
actly what he is buying and know Just
what to expect from every bottle Of
'sBlooi Wine,'' it is sold to every drag
gist with tile understanding that he shall
provide everyone calling, with free
sample. This enables you to test and
investigate right hero at home the
workings of this remedy.
. "Blood Wine" cures disease by begin
ming at the very foundation OF the trouble.
1t undermines disease as readily as dis
ease overcomos the normal conditions of
the system. TO cure any kind Of disease
it is necessary to commence on the
vital fluid CT the hody-the blood. Any
physician viii tell you that the mortal
never lived into whose flesh the germs Of
disease could creep when healthy blood
flowed through the veins. Sores on the
body, pimples and blotchss are produced
in the same way that sores on the lungs
or in the kidneys or any other part Of the
body are brought on. What is consUmp-
ton? Nothing butasefe1a pGs-emttting,

When you take 1t, it seems to pass i'm

almost instantaneous results. Women
who need strength, who find difficulty in
doing their homework, who feel all
dragged out, whose cheeks are cclorless
and whose an9mic appearance bespeaks
the absence of the healthy blood, will find
blood Wine" a positive, neverfailing
cure. Rheumatism, muscular and artic-
ul2r, and all forms of neuralgia, shoot
ing, darting pains, dull aches, that
double up the fingers and twist and
bulge the joints will be relieved by tho
prompt use of BLOOD Wine" When you
take this remedy you get right at the
roots of the evil and become cured to
