Doctor
Tried but Could Not
Relieve Me
OF Headache, Dizzi-
ness, Twitching.
DR.. Miles Nervine Did
Relieve and Cure.

1.-THE doctor tried but couldn't relieve me-
is phrase commonly met with in the letters
we receive from grateful patients. The
reason is plain. The doctor tries to cure the
symptom and neglects the disease. In all
cases Of chronic headache, nervousness,
weakness, general debility, dizzy spells, loss
Of appetite inability to sleep, lack OF energy,
loss Of flesh, lack of interest, morbid tend
encies, hysteria, the disease is a nervous dis
order and some means must be taken to
strengthen and restore the nervous system.
DR.. Miles Restorative Nervine is performing
wonders every day and will cure you as it
has thousands Of others. Read how quickly
it acted in the following case:
"a few years ago / was greatly trouble5
with nervousness and indigestion. While 1T
work dizzy spell would come over me and
l would be forced to stop and rest. suffered
terribly from headaches and my nervousness
was so marked as to cause almost constant
twi.ching Of the muscles. My doctor tried
but could not relieve me. | finally began
the use Of DIR. Miles Restorative Nervine
and continued until l have used four bottles,
although have not had dizzy spell since
taking the FIRST dose. l am very thankful for
what your medicine has done for me and
shall take pleasure in recommending it

BANGOR Praises Suiiy.

The Bangor Daily News of last Sat
urday says the following about Daniel
Sally in ''Thc old Mill Stream" which
appears at the Opera House next Sat
urday evenings:
"SinGularly enough The Old Mill
Stream, a play in three acts With DAM
el Sully in the leading role, proved to
tht. large audience at the Opera House
Fl itiay night exactly what was indicat-
cd by its title-a rather pretty. quiet,
wholesome little story, dealing With the
ordinary people of everyday existence,
and told amid surrounding so prosaic
that many play writer's would deem
them unworthy of their skill. Yet it is
i'm the people and in the setting that
the plays chief beauty les,--for the
people are drawn true TO life. not as
the -dramatist sees it but as it
really is: while The back ground Of the
old mill With its placid stream. of
peaceful country cottages ana fields of
waving grain. can come but as Il well
come relief To eyes strained to the glare
ana Glit;er which erects them in the
problem or romantic play.
From this il is not 10 be inferred that
The OLD Mill Stream is lacking in ee-
ments OF dramatic strength: for many
of the situations are colored with lib
cral hand, While the climax Of the sec
end act would seem to belong quite
~ operly in the field OF melolrama. 1t
is melodrama, however. very easy to
fCrgive-for the thrill is quickly fol-
lowed by the laugh the more serious
scenes are lightened Immediately by
an abundance Of clever comedy. and
the whole is tuned into perfect har-
mony with the real life which it is sup
posed to represent..'
III Mr.. SuIly, who appears to excel
lent advantage in the title role. has
found Il new play in The Old Mill
Stream. then may he consider himself
to be extremely lucky. If, on the other
hand, he has revived an Old one-and
thi., is hintcd. despite the advance an
commemorative has he shown most
admirable taste in reSurrecting 50 good
drama from oblivion.

he will appear for the last time here as
Mephisto ut the Opera House. tomor-
row evening. Several thousand dollars
have been invested in new scenery,
costumes and prologue. and the Morri-
son eye is swift to see and the Morrison
ear is swift TO hear any active or pro-
posed misuse OF these effects. which
are dependent on each other to gain
the necessary ensemble. Several skilled
electricians and mechanics were re-
hearsed for many hours daily before
the Devil was entirely satisfied. The
effect of these Wearisome hours of dis
cipline is visible IN the exquisite shad-
ing of the lights in the Brocke1 gar
den and apotheosis scenes as well rs in
the new prologue, which is one of the
strongest scenes of the play lyrically,
unsteady and dramatically. Lewis
Morrison has appeared five thousand
times as Mephisto and the present pro-
drction is said To be the most elaborate
he has ever given to this play The
81 emery, costumes ana electrical effects
are all new. The instrumental ANA vo-
cal music is newly composed, While the
artists selected to interpret the music
were drawn from a known New
York conservatory and with the added
extraction of Lewis Morrison himself
as Mephisto, the forthcoming produc
ton of Faust at the Opera House,
will prove an unusual event. Beauti-

q Newspaper men will appreciate the
following extract from the State
School Report issued for the year 1902
by Superintendent Stetson:
"Current reading occupies a large,
perhaps 100 large Il proportion of the
average readers time. The local
newspaper has a just claim to be called
an educational Institution. 1t makes a
record of local and current history,
fosters enterprises which seek to pro-
mote the general welfare and renders
an amount OF unremunerated public
Service rot e4ualled by amy other
agt ncy. 1t has proved itself the loyal
ally of the common school. For these
and many other reasons the teacher
shodld be u reader of her local paper.

hardly be given by anyone.

state Librarian Carver had a lot of
literary ,uriOSities out yesterday.
Some of them We're printed and bound

of the most Interesting was Il set of the

A&hbury Dickens and Joseph Dennis in
Philadelphia, and ran until 1921. the
contributors being the prominent lit
er;ry mon Of the time, among whom
We're John Quincy Adams and Charles
Br"rkton Brown. Another was a book
o. sli"lo2ues' for the use of school, pub
lishcd by Ezekiel Goodale at the
IL Howell Bookstore. ut the Sign of
III" Bible, in 1914. The printer WAS
the noted Peter E,ies. IIalloWell was
ut the early part of the 18th century.
the literary center Of Maine, and more
printing WAS done there i'll the first
quarter of tn" century than in amy
other place in the State. 1t was near
the Court House in UalloWcll. before
Augusta and IIalloWell were divided
hy the Legislature of Massachusetts in
1141. that f,doS established his news
paper, the kcnnebec Imtelligencer, the
first issue of which was August II.
1875. This was the first in this section.
Another relic. not so Old. but not less
interesting. WAS Il pamphlet written in
1853 hy "a Maine Citizen" on 'Thc
Maine Law in The Balance" 1t was
an attack on the Prohibition Law, and
in the light of the present agitation, is
very interesting reading. The author
attacks the Jaw as severely as the
present observation-disclosures do. and uses
practically the same arguments. There
is nothing now under the sun.

There is not an actor an actress, a
vocalist or other public performer. in
cluding the politician. but must be in.
terested in the hiss and its origin.
DR.. Anslie Hollis in The Humani-
tartan tells under the title of Before
Babel" of his researches as to the pre-
vailipg language before the confusion
of tongues"
Referring to the aforesaid awesome
word, he writes: Perhaps the sibilant
SIS (st. is, sh) is one of the oldest sounds
in animated nature, as it undoubtedly
is one of the simplest to produce.
''Vocalized in the English hiss (hist,
hush) we find the pure sibilant adopted
by beasts, birds and reptiles as an ex-
pressive of the warning in times of
stress.
Even the crustacean cirrhipeds can
produce the sound. when there is an
adjacent source of danger although
they are not supplied with proper vo.
cal apparatus.
Besides acting as warning not to
its own kith. some predatory animals
carnivora and certain snakes, utter
the sound IN minatory manner tu
ward off Objectionable intruders froi'
their lair
Equivalent in the former case to the
expressions Keep quiet Stand still,'
hiss is construed in its more widely
known sense among animals of differ
ent species as Come forward at your
peril impressing visitor in search of
hospitality much in the same way as
did the legend Cave canem.' on the
threshold of a Roman mansion"
The paragraph concludes sagely; Our
English hiss is mainly restricted to ;he
use of dissatisfied playgoers. The
sound here retains its primitive mean
ing-a warning no-H."

When Edward VII as Prince of Wales
visited America in 1860, Canada went
wild over him. and in Detroit and
Chicago the crowds were so dense
that the party could scarcely reacn

lions. dinners and other social func

that he finally broke down through
sheer fatigue and overexcitement. The
Duke of Newcastle. who was the
princes companion. decided. therefore,

THUNDER MOUNTAIN.

Reports from the New Thunder Mountain
Gold Fields grow steadily better. There will
undoubtedly be great rush into the district
this year. Last year the news concerning
the new discoveries of free-milling ore had
only begun to leak out and before October
more than &c, 900 claims were fled
From every quarter there will be people
going to Thunder Mountain, and all will
want reliable information as to the best route
and how soon the trail viii be open. Many
who cannot go will want to invest in good
property there, and the time to do that is now
when money is needed for mine equipment.
The Thunder Mountain Gold Mining and
Milling Company has a splendid property of
100 acres, across which there is tremendous
vein of free-milling ore 80 fleet wide and rum
ming right into Rainbow Peak Mr.. Charles
j. Perkins, General Manager of the Company,
spent all last summer in the district. He is
now at the Companys eastern offices in New
York, where he will remain until some time
in May purchasing equipment and describing
the property to all who wish to buy shares.
He also possesses full information regarding
the district and makes it point to answer
all questions about it, without charge, so that
all who are interested may write and get this
information free and at first hand
The Company which Mr.. Perkins repre-
sents made its first public Offering of stock in
january, ana SO many SUBSCRIPTIONS have been
received that great deal of the equipment
for the mine has been purchased and prepared
for shipment as soon as the way is opened for
travel.
1t is estimated that fully three millions of
dollars of machinery and equipment is now
on the way to Thunder Mountain for various
companies One of the companies sold stock
a year ago at so cents a share and now it is
not to be bought for $500 per share. Thirty
other mines are opened and are getting into
richer ore every day.
The property which this Company owns is
second to none in the district, and the more
one learns about it and its officers the greater
the desire becomes to own some of its stock
