Some Seasonable Advice.

1t may be piece of supcriluouS ad'
vice to urge people at this season OF
the year to lay in supply of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. 1t isaImost
sure to be needed before winter Is
over, and much more prompt and
satisfactory results are obtained when
taken as soon as a cold is contracted
and before il has become settled IN
the system, which can only be done
by keeping the remedy at hand. This
remedy is so widely known and so al
together good that no one should hesi-
tate about buying it in preference to
any other. 1t is for sale by all drug
gists.

to England with him. Azubah, in a
solo, voices the hope that her father will
sell his invention, when Theodore ap-
pears, having overheard part of De Bun
yan's speech and taken it for granted
that he was addressing AZubah, who does
not understand the situation. Theodore
refuses TO listen to her explanation and
avows his intention of shipping with the
Commodore.
Salomi, having acted as guide to the visi
tors who ascended the mountain, returns,
and on che spot marked by the squire avows
her love for the Commodore. The Commo-
dore, also on the fatal spot, addresses the
mountain in most endearing terms
Parson Brown also has his troubles. He
does not approve of dancing and when the
visitors propose to introduce The Kirmes
as given the previous evening at Dark Har-
Dor he protests. He protests again when
the Commodore says he will treat the crowd
to champagne, but all in vain, and he finally
takes to the hills until the unhOly festiv-
ties are over. Theodore tries to ship on the
Commodore's yacht in order to leave Lin
colnville, but receives little encouragement.
The Commodore is, however, much inter-
ested in the mountain and is surprised to
find that it is owned by Theodore. They
retire to confer together while the dancing
is going on.
After the dances, Squire Haskell gives a
demonstration of the Photographic powers
of his scare crow. His audience is amazed
to hear, not only the words of the Lieut.,
but also what appeared to be avowals of
love from both Salomi and the Commodore,
the latter, however, was really addressing
the mountain. When the Changers attempt

Washington Hose Company are arrang-

Opera House on the evening of Wednesday.
Sept. It'll. The Belfast quintet will fur
nish music for the occasion, and the floor
will be in charge of Chief Engineer l. T.

a good time.
Sch. A. W. Ellis, which dragged ashore
in gale at Swans Island, is said to be in a
bad condition. 1t was expected to float her
with empty barrels and tow to Belfast for
repairs, but at last reports she had not
been tloated. Capt. N. S. Lord and Ralph
W. Pattershall have gone down to her.

City of Rockland, which was nearly wreck
ed several weeks ago, was awarded Aug.
25th to VIM. McKie of East Boston, the
builder of the vessel, whose bid was $685.

will not be hurried as the steamer will not

Frank Wellman of Belmont brought to
this office Tuesday pear and an apple
picked from the same tree. That may not
seem very surprising, but it is when the
fact is stated that the tree has never been
grated. 1t is a Bells Early tree and there
is pear tree about 80 feet away. Mr..
Wellman picked two perfect pears from the
tree. The theory is that the pollen from
the pear tree was carried by bees to the
apple tree.
