The Biscoe G.. E. Society was formed
Feb. 18th, 1902, with twenty-five active

weather so far has prevented very good
attendance. / have been able to pro-
cure the names of twenty speakers who
have been at the school house in the past
wear which it may be of interest to re-
call. A. w. Pottle, w. Z. Brooks, ii. 5.

A Short Career in Politics.

1t has showed all day and that is all |
know about the weather. In fact have
got so | don't care whether it SHOWS or
rains, for at the present time have had
other things to think about. A while
before town meeting did not know but
it might be possible to get small town
office, but it is all over now, and am
doomed to lie over until another year.
1t is mostly my own fault. When ]
first started out on small electioneerlng
trip, made an awful mistake in trying
to please everybody. prided myself in
having good reputation among my
neighbors, but tackling strangers was
where lost my grip. The first stranger
| met was very pleasant man to all APP
pearance, and soft enough so that ]
thought | could make some impression
on him. So | commenced by talking
about the weather, the war in the far
East, herring, cranberry boggin', and
other current topics. Finally / asked
him what he thought of trusts, such as
oil, sugar, molasses, tea, coffee and to-
bacco. He said he was down on the
whole business, and says he "What do
YOU think about it?" Says l, 81 am down
on it like a thousand of brick" Says he,
"Shakem and we shook.
"Now," says he, "What are your poll
tics to-day?" Not wishing to disagree
with the gentleman, l thought l would
say something that he could not find
any fault with, so told him that l
thought l should 60 open communion
this year. He stepped back about four
feet and eyed me about a minute, and
says he, 81 can't go with you any more,
for / never did like them communists
and never SHALL" Says 1, "My dear
man, let me explain" Says he, "No
you don't, you id Down Easter" and
he backed off.
That discouraged me so much that l
have thrown up the sponge for this year,
intimated to some of my friends before
left Maine that it might be possible
that might be Governor of Massachu-
sets some time if ever did.
The oldest of the readers of the Demo
GRAFT remember how our much respected
John D. Long failed the first time he
tried to go to the state legisl AZURE, but
he had the real down east grit and the
get up and hustle to him, which hope
will bring him into the United States
Senate.
Then there was Robert Bruce. lie
got knocked out six times, and was
about to give it up, when he saw
spider trying to spin thread from the
wood box to the kitchen stove. lie
noticed the spider had tried six times
and made failure. "Now," says Bob
"If that spider tries it again and makes
his connections, l will shake myself out
and try it once MORE" and he did and
came out on top. WIN CUsHMAN.

CANDIDATE.
WEST PARIS, MARCH l6, 1904.

w ESl hiahth w. ioOt.
Having ut an earlier period at the solic-
itation of friends consented to be can
didate for representative at the fall
election, and knowing it was the
general expectation in this north section
of the town of Paris to name their pref
erence. and as this town was in the
classed district by right to furnish the
candidate this year, did not see or feel
it advisable to announce myself so, but
as Others have | will now state, am,
and still shall be candidate for that
position.
As / believe fully in the fairness and
Justice of this part of the town to con-
sideration, and would ask an endorse
ment for such reasons, yet would feel
highly gratified and honored for the fair
and generous support of the citizens of
this town, and if nominated and elected
nv best efforts will be given for the well
fare of all. Notification is a dangerous
weapon, and l am in favor of the en-
forcement of all laws so long as they are
in force, in just and faithful manner,
and especially those for the moral eleva-
ton of society, its safety, general welfare
and blessings that follow, and l will
stand by good and faithful officers who
enforce the same. C. II. LANE.

Obituary.

At East Buckfeld, Mar. 7th, Mrs. Syl-
venia Warren, aged 10, wife of Mr.. Os-
mon Warren, passed out of earth life.
Mrs. Warren has always lived the true
womanly life, thus winning the respect
of all who knew her. Her CHEEKY man.
ner and kindly disposition made many
friends. In her younger years she took
an active part in the social life of the
place.
A good mother and home-maker has
gone from our midst, and the sympathy
of neighbors and friends goes out to the
family. A husband, one daughter and
two sons survive her.
The funeral occurred on Thursday

F. A. sHURTLEFF & CO. URGE THEM TO
USE HYoMEI. WILLING TO SELL 1T ON
APPROVAL.
A new and specially valuable use for
Hyomei has been discovered, one that
will be particularly welcomed by singers
and public speakers.
The free use of Hyomei, breathed
through the inhaler that comes with
every outfit, carries healing balsams to
the head and throat, and strengthens
the voice. F. A. Shurtlef d Co. have
had several of their customers speak to
them in regard to the good effects fol-
lowing the use of Hyomei for this spe-
cial purpose, and will be glad to sell 1t
on approval to any singer, minister,
teacher, or public speaker,
They feel surs that the use of Hy0mei
for this purpose will make many new
friends for the treatment. If it does not
give satisfaction, the money paid will be
returned promptly and without ques-
lions.
The complete Hyomei outfit, consist
ing of an inhaler that can be carried in
the purse or pocket, bottle of Hyomei
and a medicine dropper, costs only one
dollar.
Many remarkable cures of catarrh and
other troubles of the air passages have
been made by Hyomei, and F. A. Shurt-
left & Co. agree to refund the money TO
anyone who does not find it a complete
cure for any catarrhal troubles.
There is no dangerous stomach drug.

through the inhaler, and relief comes
quickly.
