An illustration of how deceptive some
appearances of game may be was afford
Ell two local fishermen recently. While
fishing from boat not far from shore,
they heard something gathering down
through the woods on the blutf toward
the water. Their opinions were divided,
one thinking it was rabbit, the other

The Democrat was favored on Monday
with pleasant though brief call from
Dr. JEFF Gushing Gallison of Franklin,
Mass, who is known to many of ouI
readers. DIR. Gallison was, something

mus Ward in the old Norway Advertiser
office. While in the Democrat office laS'
week he inspected with especial interes
the old hand press used for printing th'
paper fifty years ago, avery near relative
to one that the doctor himself manipu

Those who like to see good founda
ton on which to run machinery shoult
look at the new saw mill building starte'
by the Paris Manufacturing Co. Owe
the entire territory of the basement, lO'
X l25 feet, are forest of brick piers,
feet s inches apart each way. On thes
piers rest sills 10 x l2 inches, and owe
1900 feet in length of these large sill
are used in the building. The top floor
ing is of matched hard wood plank. Owe
$4,000 feet of lumber is used in the sill
and flooring, and the solidity of the foo
on which the machinery will run coul
possibly be exceeded only by concret
on solid ledge.
