WHITE LABOR FOR

Editor Advertiser: May / be allowed
a small space in your valuable paper?
1 can not believe that there can be one
individual in these islands calling him

editorial in the Advertiser today, as
well as to Mr.. McGuire's cleverly and
truthfully written letter upon hmmi-
grafton matters.
Friends! Did you ever whilst tour
ing, or maybe living in any part of
! Southern Europe, notice that every
inch of ground seemed to be grow

tinuous garden? And did you ever get
up early enough in the morning to visit

stones under foot, but clean) and OBJ.

Now that the thin edge of the wedg

THE BRIGHT SIDE

of life. 1t is a feeling common
to the majority of us that we
do not get quite the amount Of
happiness we are entitled to.
Among the countless things
which tend to make US more or
less miserable i'll health takes
first place. Hannah More said
that sin was generally to be at
tributed to biliousness. No doubt
a crippled liver with the result
ing impure blood, is the cause Of
more mental gloom than any
other single thing. And who
can reckon up the fearful aggre-
gate Of pain, loss and fear a.
rising from the many diseases
which are familiar to mankind;
like a vast cloud it hangs over
a multitude no one can number.
You can see these people every
where. For them life can scarce
ly be said to have any "bright
side" at all. Hence the eager
ness with which they search for
relief and cure. Remedies like
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
have not attained their high po-
sition in the confidence of the
people by bald assertions and
boasting advertisements. They
are obliged to win it by doing
actually what is claimed for them.
That this remedy deserves its
reputation is conceded. 1t is

orders that tend to undermine
the foundations of strength and
vigour. Its use helps to show
life's brighter side. Professor

most of the day. He remembered Incl

and told a remarkably plausible story,

MEMORIAL TOWER ON THE ALLEN FARM.

ican of Aug. /, 1905. According to
English advices then published, three
persons had been convicted for poll
ing fictitious votes for Sir Francis
Burdett at the late Middlesex elec-
tion.''
The members of this interesting trio
were sentenced to one month "in his
majesty's gaol of Newgate," at the ex-
piration of which time they were ban
ished from Great Britain for seven
years.
On June q, 1905, three men were
convicted of polling fictitious votes"
at late Philadelphia election. They
were sentenced, two of them to five
months in jail and to pay a fine of
$500, the other to four months in jail
and to pay fine of $3.50.
Whatever may be the comparative
merits of the places and times in other
respects, it must be admitted that
there was clearer conception of the
enormity of the crime against the bal
lot in London in 1905 than there ap.
pears to be in Philadelphia in 1906.
To that extent sigh for the ttgood
old days" is justified.

The Importance of Proper Breathing

ton is most frequently seen in seden-
tary men and infants. The opposite
style OF breathing, known as cOsta1
breathing, is seen in women who ha-
bitua1ly wear Waist-constricting gar
ments. The principal movement is
at the top Of the chest.
Neither costal nor abdominal res
piration is capable of bringing the
lungs fully into action. Only such por-
tions Of the lungs act as lie in con-
tact with portion of the chest wall
which moves during the respiratory
effort, and in those parts which lie in
contact with portions of the chest
wall which remain idle the air stag
mates. Carbonic acid gas and other
poisonous matters accumulate. The
living cells are thereby poisoned and
paralyzed. Pneumonia germs and
other disease-producing microbes and
especially the germs of tuberculosis
are likely to find lodgment in these
idle parts. The paralyzed cells are
easily overcome by the invading
germs and SO an acute inflammation
may be set up, or, still worse, that
dreadful disease, pulmonary tubercu.

Disease Germs Find Lodeement
in Unused Portions of the
Lungs - Frequent Cause of
Dread Tuherculoaia.

Air is made to enter the chest by
enlarging the chest cavity, or thorax.
This is accomplished by a downward
movement of the diaphragm and an
outward movement in all directions of
the lateral chest walls This is large
ly accomplished by the muscles which
lift the ribs and pull them outward
from the center of the body. The
lungs are emptied by the natural re-
turn of the parts to a passive state,
when the muscles cease their pulling

deep respiration, when the breathing
movements are not interfered with,
the movement consists chiefly of an
enlargement of the trunk in the re-
g1on OF the waist. There is at the
same time marked bulging forward

breathing is sometimes, though in
correctly, termed abdominal respira-

there is a forward movement of the
abdomen, but without marked enlarg-

Some months ago an officer holding
an important executive post in one Of
the greater corporations received a
kindly, almost neighborly, call f-on
one Of his fellow directors. This Of,
ficer had returned from a brief svaca-
ton trip. The fellow, director said
to him that in view of their long
friendship and their respect and ad-
miration each for the ability and
achievements of the other, he was 60

officer. Then he put this question
bluntly to him: -.
"What will you be willing to pay to
keep your placer" ~.
1t seemed strange question. The
executive officer did not know at first
what to make Of it. He saw, of course.
that there was some kindly, although
hidden, purpose in the question and so
he answered in the spirit in which the
inquiry was put. He said that, of
course, if it were necessary and was
the proper thing to do, he would
rather pay large sum of money than

The state of Vermont has many
times paid tribute to the memory of
Ethan Allen, one of the most marked
official acts being the erection of a
monument over his grave in Green
Mountain cemetery in this city. The
Legislature of 1856 appropriated
money for the purpose.
The base of the pedestal is eight
feet square on the ground, and con-
slsts OF two steps of granite, on which
rests die of solid granite six feet
square, in the four faces of which are
set panels Of. white marble bearing
several inscriptions which pay tribute
to Aliens valor. Above the pedestal
rises a tuscan shaft of granite AZ feet
in diameter and IL feet in height.
Upon it's capital, on base bearing
the word Ticonderoga, stands heroic
statue of Allen, 8 feet 4 inches high,
modelled by Peter Stephenson, a Bos-
ton sculptor, now deceased: and cut
in Italy. The monument is protected
by fence of original design: the cor
ner posts of which are iron cannon
and the pales muskets, with bayonets,
resting on a base Of cut granite.
The statue was paid for by private
subscription, and was unveiled July 4,
1873. The hero is represented as de.
manding the surrender of Fort Ticon-
deroga on the morning of May 10,
ITS.
Another marble statue of Allen
stands at the entrance to the state
capitol in Montpelier. Ten years ago
Green Mountain chapter, Daughters of
the American Revolution, placed a me.
mortal tablet of bronze on a bowlder
at the base Of Indian rock, on which
is located the tower which is to be ded.

bears this inscriptions:
