Bangor spent Thanksgiving with her lately
bereaved sister, Mrs. Daniel Thompson,
leaving Saturday for their home. The
dance given Thanksgiving night in Dens-
low Hall, under the auspices of the West
street section of our V. |. S., proved very
enjoyable home gathering, although, owing
to the inclemency of the weather, a drizzling
rain storm, the company was not large;
therefore, the sum realized for the Village
Improvement Society not what it would
otherwise have been. However, all present
pronounced it social success. Mrs.
Charles Heath and little daughter of San
dypoint came Friday to visit her sister,
Mrs. Herbert Mixer, and other family mem
bers, returning Monday. Mrs. II; is the
youngest child of the late }. W. Thomp
son, and her old associates are always

tertained most pleasantly last Friday by
Mrs. Horace Griffin. Mr. William Ladd
and family left Saturday for Fox Islands,
where he has employment for the winter.

the guest of Mrs. Fred Hendricks. Miss
Clara Mixer and Miss Ethel Colcord are

Consumption is a human
weed Aourishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds it's
easily destroyed while young;
when old, sometimes i'm
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption so
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. If it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be
rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh air,
rest all you can, eat all you
can, that's the treatment and
that's the best treatment.

Dissipation by Machinery.

Dissipation by Machinery is the
title Of recent article whose theme
holds that dissipation is a natural in
stinct, but that instead Of turning to
absinthe or opium, as of old. the mod
ern young man goes in for air-ships
and electrical devices. If the vogue for
this form of overflow of surplus energy
shall continue, 1t promises well for the
fast-growing class CT young men who
have no need to work. and to whom the
ordinary professions hold out little
attraction. The nervous energy pro
ducCd by American air must find some
vent, and if the newer generation of
men shall turn 10 automatic forms OF
propcllation, TO liquid-air machinery.
TO electrical or chemical combinations
which shall turn wheels more rapidly
than they have ever before turned the
world will be the gaiLer by Just so
much. and the inventor be conscious
of his required sensation. To wheel
around the Eincl Tower seems certain
