FAIRFIELD CENTRE.

The home Of Wilbur Tozier of Fair

tent, Wednesday, by fire. Mrs. Tozier

estimated at present. Two beds We're
destroyed, all the furniture in one
room was more or less scorched ana
the whole house is blackened by smoke.

said their duty would ne to fight such n
section with all power and energy. Sill
Henry said he had been assured, how
ever. ana that he was ready to believe
that this new section of the party was
working on parallel lines and for Identical
objections. But if this were so, why in
the name of common sense, Sir Henry
asked, did it not work with the Liberal
party.
in the party.
Referring to South Africa the speaker
said the war was Only transient inter-
Jude and that after the war the great
question would come.
Sir Henry concluded by declaring that
the only solution of the South Africal

by the assent of the governed.

Continuing, Mr.. Redmond said that the
demands of those in favor of hofe rule
were moderate and reasonable. Far from
English legislators being able to pigeon

1t would remain, the speaker said to con-
found, confuse and divide the English

moral influence of England before the
world, until 1T was settled by the conces-

es this session it will be only after a
very long discussion.
Those Maine people who engage in
the frequently recurring controversy
over appropriations for the University
at Orono will find something of inter-
est in General Grosvenor's bill before
the House to give agricultural colleges
an additional appropriation of $4,000
for encouragement of instruction in
mining and agricultural topics. 1t
was proposed originally to confine the
appropriation to instruction about
mines and mining but the scope of the
bill has been broadened in the COM
mittee on mines and mining of which
Representative Eddy of Minnesota, is
chairman. AS the bill has been report
ed 20 the House it provides an ap-
preparation of $4,000 from the federal
treasury the first year and an addi-
tional $1,000 every succeeding year for
ter years, to every agricultural college
in the country. This sum would be in
addition to the federal appropriations
now paid to these institutions. The
University Of Maine would clearly
come within the provisions of the bill,
lege in the country. founded under
the provisions of the Morrill, law.
The purpose is to furnish instruction
in road making, chemistry, geology,
irrigation, and mining to meet with the
growing demand for well equipped
young men to manage enterprises
where such scientific instruction is in
dispensable. The bill will probably pass
the House, where it is naturally popu-
lar with men of all parties because its
benefits will be widely distributed.
The chances are pretty good that it will
become a law before this Congress ex-
pires. unless the friends of irrigation
are able to defeat it. They are fearful
that the appropriation of so much
money from the fund received for the
sale of public lands may damage the
prospects of various federal irrigation
schemes.

Ii is true the most annoying symp-
toms, like stoppage Of the nose and
throat trouble, are purely local. but
they are simply symptoms and the real
seat of disease is far removed.
Catarrh is a constitutional disease, 4
blood disorder. complicated usually
with disease of the liver and to sup
pose that local applications of sprays,
powders, inhalers, could ever reach
the real cause of the trouble is
ridiculous.
The sensible and successful treat
ment is to remove the catarrhal poison
from the system by regulating the liver
and purifying the blood, and this can
only be done by an internal remedy,
which should consist of antiseptics and
remedies to act vigorously on the blood
and liver.
The best preparation of this kind
which fills all the requirements of a
safe constitutional treatment is Sta
arts Catarrh Tablets, composed of
Blood Root, Red Gum and similar
wholesome antiseptics, which are alb
solutely safe to take into the storiach
and which act upon the liver, stomach
and mucous membrane.
Starts Catarrh Tablets are large,
| pleasant tasting lOzenges to be slowly
dissolved in the mouth, thus reaching
| the mucous membrane and d-pipe
and finally reaching the stomach,
Dir. Edmondson, in speaking of the
/ new treatment for catarrh, says: Il
have accomplished the most satisfac-
tory results in all forms of catarrh' of
| the head, throat, bronchial tubes, as
well as catarrh of the stomach and
liver by using nothing else but Stuart $
Catarrh Tablets. I long since threw
aside sprays and inhalers as being in
tconvenient and at the best mere tcr.-
porary make-shifts.
Stnart's Catarrh Tablets act i'm
mediately upon the liver and blood and
clear the whole system OF catarrhal
poison. They are pleasant and very
convenient to use, and they are not
only the latest. but believe them to be
the best and certainly the safest treat
ment for any form of catarrh."
