this would make a big beginning.
Then every old grad. in the city OF
either college would of course want
to go and this would make big ad-
dition. Then there are many more
who could get away on saturday
afternoon to see a good game ana
enjoy Il little trip out of town. II
certainly looks as if Il good crowd
could be gathered, large enough at
any rate so that there would be no
worry about the guarantee that might
have to be paid for the train.
Wouldn't it make the Colby team
feel like playing football to have a
whole train load march onto the field
giving the old Colby yell? No one
could shirk under those conditions
even if he wanted to. Then If Colby
should be lucky enough to win, what
a good time the crowd would have
getting home! Don't the prospect
make you want to go. you old grads. =!
If Maine and Bowdoin and other
colleges can run special trains to
games. why can't Colby? And She
can do it easy if the old grads in
the city will take hold and help the
boys out. 1t would make the team
feel lots better with Il big cheer going
behind it all the time and it will be
needed. in Orono. for Maine knows how
to cheer and usually uses the knowl-
edge. +..icf
There is now plenty of time to talk
it over and make all the arrange
ments. Colby's going to have foot
ball team, this year, that will be
capable of putting up big fight on
any field and it's going to be worth
money to see it line up against Maine
for the next game. What do you
think. wouldn't it be a good scheme
to run a special over for the event

Special preparations are being made
at the City opera house for the pro-
ducticn of VIM. Gillette's famous war
drama, Secret Service. which is
booked for Tuesday. Oct. IA. This IS
the play that above all made VIM.
Gillette's a household name. not only
in this country but on the other side OF
the water as well. The plot is laid in
Richmond. Va, and deals with the
thrilling exploits and love-making OF
a courageous Northern officer. and III
its development Mr.. Gillette has SHOWN
his wonderful abilities ut their best.
In the leading roles Mr.. Clemens as
Capt. Thorne" seems to fairly trans
port his audience back through the
flight of years to those days of STRIFE
and uncertainty, characteristic OF
times in '6l. Miss Courtney's Edith
yarney" is realism itself and whatever
luminosity one may have harbored for
the South as people is all dispelied
by her portrayal of the honest, OPEN
hearted Southern girl. In short,
Secret Service" is intensely human in
every line.

That Old Sewer.

1t looks as if some interesting legal
questions might arise in regard to the
sewer from Mechanic square to Front
street which the city now proposes to
Law. 1t seems that once upon a time
before Waterville became a city there
was what might be called brook
where it is now proposed to lay the
sewer 1t was not much of Il brook
but was called such for want of a bet
ter name as many others are. "he
land in that section is low and bogGy
and there was a natural drainage
through it. The brook was converted
into a covered drain some years ago
and has done more or less efficient ser
vice hut has become clogsed.
A sewer is badly needed in that sec
ton and attention has been called 10
the fact several times. The city al
length decided to repair the drain and
put it in good serviceable condition by
connecting it with the river on Front
street. But when Street Commissioner
Green started to lay out the work the
owners of the land objected and he Gid

city Solicitor Foster who told him that

possible.
But it was thought best to make the
situation plain to the city govern
ment which was done and the council
backed Mr. Foster and Mr.. Green in
their position. 1t is now understood
that f. N. Heath who owns the land
across which the sewer will pass, will
ask the Supreme court for an in
junction and that after the hearing
both parties will agree in friendly
manner on the decision.

MERIT MAKES IT FAMOUS.
The Only Remedy in the World, Ex-
cept a Surgical Operation, that
Will Certainly Cure Any
Form of Piles.

The study of physicians, the expert
ments OF chemists. the loudly adyer-
tised pretensions of quacks. have been
for years expended in one direction; to
find a pile cure that would cure.
The results have been a number of
harmless and in most cases useless
ointments, suppositories and even in
ternal remedies. which the public have
weighed in the balance of experience
and found wanting; nearly all of them
gave some relief, but nothing APP
preaching Il radical cure resulted from
these preparations.
The remedy required is one which

faces.
Until few years ago. no such REM
edy had been produced. but at that
time 4 suppository was placed upon
the market. which has since proven it,
self to be the long sought permanent
cure for this common and distressing
trouble: it has rapidly become famous
throughout the United States and
Canada, and is now sold by all drug
gists under the name of Pyramid Pile
Cure.
It is now the best known, because
its merit and safety have advertised il
wherever used. 1t has been advertised
by word of mouth, from one sufferer
to another: people who have tried
everything else. even submitting to
painful and dangerous surgical opera
tions without avail have finally found
that piles can be cured without pain
and without expense practically, as
the Pyramid Pile Cure is sold for the
nominal price Of 50 cents and 81 per
package.
The Pyramid instantly stops all pain
and at the same time contains no CO.
caine, morphine or narcotics: the acids
and healing properties contained in the
remedy speedily remove, cause a

way nearly always result from neglect
