Another Guppy Triumph in cigardom.

1t was the firm of c. II. Guppy Co.
that placed upon the market that cigar
the peculiar name of which attracted
universal notice and comment. The
Onion was indeed an unusual brand to
put upon a high class cigar, but it
proved a mighty taking one and the
demands for the goods soon became so
large that it was no easy matter to
keep up with the orders. 1t was some
thing more substantial than the name,
however, that caused the Onion to enjoy
such q constant favor. 1t was quality
"a virtue in it's material and manu-
facture which was not permitted to
deteriorate.
The c. II. Guppy Co. is now intro
ducing another brand of cigar which
promises to rival the highly. successful
experience of the Onion. The new
product of this enterprising concern is
styled "Merecido" a smooth sounding
title that leads one to anticipate a
smoke of rare flavor and fragrance, and
it is anticipation which is fully realized.
"Merecido' is emphatically no mis-
nomer. and the exquisite taste and
smell that the cigar enjoys as peculiar
Iy it's own is giving it popularity in
the market that is expanding by
bounds.-Portland Argus.

MANY PRETTY MAIDS
In "Florodora" Tonight.-Big Seat
Sale,

One of the largest houses of the
season will greet the elegant produc
ton of "Florodora" at the Opera
House. tonight. The seat sale is
progressing in brisk manner, but de-
sirable seats can still be obtained.
"Florodora" appeared in Bangor Mon
day and Tuesday evenings to audiences
that taxed the capacity of the theater.
An extract from the Bangor News
says:
Florodora,' as pictured on the
Opera house stage Monday night, was
a place of beauty. inhabited by good
many cheerful people. and among them
some whose faces and forms may well
be counted upon as valuable assets, if
not, indeed, their owners fortunes.
Particularly do we refer to Miss Isa-
dore Rush. than whom no more at
tractive figure has lately fitted before
these foOtlights. Pretty face, willowy
form, sparkling, spirited. and smartly
elegant in dress, this young lady won
the admiration of everybody in the
great audience. particularly when she
sang, in her bright, vivacious style,
the clever little songs that Librettist
owen Hall had provided for the char
acter-Lady Holyrood. Among the
others who were very good to look
upon or very entertaining, or both,
We're Guelma Baker. who played the
part of Angela; Maude Lambert. as
Dolores, Sydney Deane, as Frank
Abercoed; Donald Brine, as Captain
Donegal, and some Of the maidens.
Miss Baker is pretty and lively, al
ways interesting; Miss Lambert is
statuesque and sing fairly well; Mr.
Deane and Mr.. Brine are both good
looking men and the former sang I'm
der the Shade of the Palms SO well
that he received several encores. As
for the double sextet, the six pretty
maidens and the six young men in
frOck coats and silk hats-why, the
song itself, with its clever words and
catchy air, is always cordially re-
ceived, and these twelve sang it well
enough to get three or four recalls, to
which they responded with pleasing

Seventy-five years ago the Maine
lawmakers seemed to have had a high
err regard for pickerel than the fisher
men of today have for them. for the
legislature of 1929 passed n law max
ing it unlawful to catch or destroy
such fish in Damariscotta pond under 2
forfeit of one dollar for every pickerel
so taken or destroyed. Not only We're
the waters Of the pond protected in the
catching of pickerel but the streams
or rivers emptyirg into or issuing out
of the pond or any of the waters con-
nected with it were likewise protected.
The use of eel pots, fish pots. nets, or
weirs. was also prohibited for the
catching of pickerel in these various
waters under penalty of five dollars
for each offence.
The passage of this act is in marked
contrast to the fact that nowadays the
vile pickerel," as the late commits
sloner Stilwell designated the species,
are regarded as piratical and destruc-
tive to trout and perch, and are there
fore undeserving of protection of any

Hon. a. w. Gilman, Commissioner OF
Agriculture, is sending the following
letter to officers of agricultural So
cieties throughout the State:
My dear Sir
BY section II of chapter IS of the
Revised Statutes of Maine and amend
ments thereto, it is provided that there
shall be paid to the various agricul-
tural societies of the State out of the
state treasury a sum proportionate to
the premiums and gratuities awarded
by said societies, on exhibition stock
ANA products. BY Section of Chapter
20l of the Public Laws Of 1901, it is
made my duty, as commissioner of
Agriculture, to assist societies organi-
zed and established for the advance
ment OF pure breeding stock ofallkinds.
Under the last law mentioned l deem it
my duty to suggest n you. and ask you
to communicate the suggestion to the
trustees of your agricultural society.
that no premiums be offered and
awarded to males that are kept for
breeding purposes, unless they are pure
bred registered or standard animals.
further suggest that animals that have
in previous fairs won the blue ribbon
should be classified by themselves and
known as the sweepstakes blue ribbon
class, and special premiums or medals
offered and awarded to this class. This
class should never be rejected, as they
were in some of the fairs last year, for
the fairs and exhibitions call for the
best; and making this sweepstakes
class will give the younger blood a
fairpr chance to cDmDete.
See that your Judges are provided
with n public and conspicuous place for
the examination of all stock, and that
The exhibitors and the public are noti-
fed when and where the judging is to
take place. The judges should be in
tclligent practical men. and experts on
the stock that they are called upon to
examine. They should judge the stock
on exhibition in public, and should
clearly and distinctly announce in
every case why one animal wins over
it's competitors and others fail, thus
making the awarding of the premiums
Il. source of instruction. These fairs
drawing State aid should be made
more and more educative each year.
If these suggestions, in my judg-
ment. could be carried out at our
agricultural fairs, they would largely
encourage and increase the interesting
Of pure breeding and incidentally the
agricultural interest of the State.
Respectfully yours,
A. W. Gilman, Commissioner of Ag-
riculture.
