ARTIST AND AUTHOR.

George S. Wasson, the artist-author,
whose book on the life of deep sea fish
ermen, "Capn Simeon's Store" was
published in April, was born at
Groveland, Mass, on the Merri-
mac River, in 1855. His grandfather
was shipbuilder and several of his
uncles were sea captains, so it is natural
enough that he should have liking for
the sea. He also comes of good literary
stock, as his father, the late David At
wood Wasson, was famous Unitarian
preacher philosophical writer, and a
true poet. Wasson studied art abroad
for several years, at a German-Kunst-
Schule and elsewhere. On his return
he located in Boston and became the
pupil of Joseph Foxcroft Cole, sharing
the studio with him for several years.
He was a member of the St. Botolph
and Art Clubs, and at the caricature
exhibitions of the Paint and Clay Club,
the sense of humor that infuses his
writings produced things so irresistlbiy
funny as to be the talk of the town. He
has confined his work to marine and
shore subjects. In small sloop, built
largely by himself, he has secured the
New England coast, sketching whatever
caught his fancy. For several seasons
he had his headquarters at Castine. IN
1889 he built his present house and
studio at Kittery Point, in order that
he might be near the sea throughout
the year. OF late he has been giving
much attention to literary work and is
taking rank as one of the best writer's
of New England saltwater character
sketches. His recent contributions to
the leading magazines have had an en-
thusiastic reception, which han encour-
aged him in presenting his first book.

THE HABIT OF HASTE

And the Serious Results to Which it OFTEN
Leads. Hastily Swallowed Food and Ir-
regular Meals are Sources OF Much Suf-
fering in This Country.
one peculiarty of Americans upon which
visitors from other countries comment Is the
habit of haste. This extends even to eating
Meals are eaten hurriedly and irreguary :;
food is swallowed half masticated and the
stomach is unthinkingly neglected and
abused to such an extent that nine-tenthS
of our people are dyspeptics. Take the
case of Miss Elspeth Davies, of No. 1927
Town street, Columbus, Ohio. She says:
81 had acute Indigestion year ago and it
became so bad that had to take to my bed
with it. The pain was terrible. | could
not eat anything without suffering dreadful
consequences and my head ached till |
thought | would go crazy; My strength
failed, became nervous and was generally
miserable. After about four months OF un-
successful dOctoring with local physician,

Pale People Before one box was taken l
felt very much better and few boxes re-
stored me entirely to health. Now my
stomach is in excellent condition and can
eat without fear of any i'll effects.
Dr. Williams Pink Pills cure stomach
trouble by their tonic action, building up
the digestive organs and enabling them to
do the work that nature intended them to
do. Artificial ferments and predigested
foods weaken the stomach in many cases.
Medicines should not do the stomach's work
but should put it in condition to perform its
natural functions. A diet book giving use

by the DR.. Williams Medicine Company,
Schenectady, n. Y.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
are sold at fifty cents box or six boxes for
two dollars and fifty cents, and may be had
of all druggists, or direct by mail, postpaid,

BUDS AND FLOWERS OF
HOME LIFE.
Paine's Celery Compound Makes and Keeps
the Children Well and Strong.
Mothers Make It the Home Medicine
For the Little Ones.

The children, God bless them, are the buds
and flowers of our homes. Without their
prattle and hearty laughter, our homes would
be desolate. They should ever be carefully
tended in childhood and youth, if we expect
them to ripen into perfect men and women.
In the home and at school, the children
have their times of i'll health and suffering.
We often note the pallid and bloodless cheeks,
heavy eyes, nervous movements, and twitch-
ings of limbs and muscles. They complain OF
headache, drowsiness, WEAKNESS, dyspepsia,
and indigestion. All such symptoms and all
ments mean that the seeds of disease will have
fast and finn hold, unless proper measures
are taken to restore perfect condition OF
health.
Thousands of wise and prudent parents have
made their children happy, healthy. and v!gor-
Gus by giving them natures medicine, Paine's
Celery Compound. In many severe and COM
plicated cases. Paine's Celery Compound has
restored health when the little ones were given
up by physicians.

CLEANING TIME.

Grid yourselves with gngham aprons,
Oye women of the land,
Pin your skirts to clear your shoe tops,
take the scrubbing brush in hand.
Boil the alkaline infusions, turn the
whole house upside down.
Slop the floors with soap and water,
needless of your husbands frown;
Yank up carpets, rugs. and mating,
jerk the pictures from the walls,
Have your pals of sudS where we can
stumble o'er them in the halls,
Pile the stairs till they are worse than
any alpine sleeps to climb,
Have the regular old picnic incident to
cleaning time.
Fill the bathtub with umbrellas, books
and shoes and bric-a-brac,.
Heap upon the grand piano kitchen
dishes in stack,
Set the dinner on the mantel, though
there's little time to eat;
See that every one who enters wipes
with care his muddy feet;
Keep the windows all wide open as you
ply the mop and broom,
Have hot and steamy vapor permeat-
ing every room;
Swab and scrub and splash and spatter
in your fight with winter CRIME,
Revel in the moist discomfort incident
TO cleaning tlille.
Have the men with whitewash brushes
spread the tinted calcimine,
Take all necessary bedding out and air
it on the line,
Have the furniture revarnished till the
odor makes one faint,
See that all the woodwork glistens with
a coat of shining paint;
Don't have anything to sit on, sleep
on, eat on !; also frown
When you hear a meek suggestion as
to "sOme hotel downtown;
Let the masculine complainer know it's
nothing short of crime
Not to make ones life burden in the
glad spring cleaning time.

LIQUOR CONVICTIONS.
Rulings of Auburn, Me-, Judge to Go to the
Law Court for Final Decision.

Law Court for Final Decision.
AUBURN, Me, May 6. Two liquor
cases, involving points which so far as
is known here have never before been
brought before the Maine courts, were
heard at the supreme court before Judge
Spear to-day. The first case was against
Michael OConnell, there being two i'll
dictments, one for nuisance and the
other for common seller, tried together
They were both based upon the seizure
of a large amount of what is called
''DOn't Know" beer. 1t was admitted
that the beer contained less than three
per cent. of alcohol, but the State claim
ed that it was malt liquor and there
fore intoxicating in the meaning of the
law. The State called Prof. Charles l..
Parsons of the New Hampshire State
college, who testified that it, was his
Judgment that the beer was a malt
liquor.
The defence put in no evidence, but
argued that 1t was not the intent of the
statute to make malt liquor intoxi-
eating unless it produced a sufficient
quantity of alcohol to make it intoxi-
eating as matter of fact. Judge Spear
instructed the jury that if it found that
the beer was malt liquor and was sold
by the defendant he was guilty. The
Jury returned verdict of guilty on
both indictments.
The other case was against Joseph
Piche, there being search and seizure
complaint and nuisance and common
seller, second offence indictments. This
was also 'Don't Know beer, and in
volved both the question of malt and
of the amount of alcohol required to
constitute a liquor intoxicating. The
State called Prof. Jordan of Bates col
lege, who testified to analyzing three
bottles of the beer at different times for
alcohol. One contained 332 percent
one 3.26 and one 3.19 percent. Prof.
Robinson of Bowdoin testified that he
analyzed two bottles Friday and found
2.95 percent of alcohol in one, and be-
tween 29S and 2.99 percent i'll the other.
Prof. Robinson also testified that the
beer was brewed from malt.
Piche was found guilty of all three
cases. Exceptions to the judges ruling
were flied in each case, and they will be
sent to the law court.
