It.
After December I the sale of
beverages that intoxicates as well
as exhilarate, now sold as patent
medicines bearing various names,
will be restricted to those who
have the retail liquor sellers GER
tifcates issued by the Federal
Government. Drug stores that
have not taken out that certificate
will not be able to sell the bitters
and toniCs so we'll known in pro-
hibition parts of Ohio and on In
dian reservations where no liqnors
are supposed to be sold. The man
ufacturers Of the medicines will
have to pay the same tax as is i'm
posed upon rectifers of spirits.
That is the effect of the decision
made public at the Internal Reeve
nue. office. The decision is a re-
versal of one made four years ago
when these so-called varieties of
"booze" were permitted to go up
on the market as medicines.
The temperance folks who have
been fighting the "bitters" people
for many years have won victory.
The Federal Government calls the
product of these great factories in
toXicating liquor and hereafter
the State authorities will have
evidence to support their conten-
ton that they are but thinly veil
ed devices for evading the liquor
laws. Statistics gathered at the
Internal Revenue office show that
of one brand Of these bitters, over
800, 900 bottles were sold in one
Prohibition State IN one year.
The Prohibition sections of Ohio
are said to consume the bitters by
the barrel. The protests from
Ohio had much to do with the
decision.
"The same" declares the Com
missioner, applies to every al
coholic compound labeled as
remedy for diseases and contain
ing in addition to distilled spirits,
only substances or ingredients
which, however large their guam
tity, are not of character to i'm
part any medicinal quality to the
compound"
Collectors are at once instructed
to send out notices to all druggists
and merchants dealing in proprie-
tary medicines that after Decem-
Der I they will be required to pay
the special tax as liquor dealers
for selling compounds within the
rule.

Timothy Sheehan, who enjoys the
friendship of all of the older and
many younger people of the city.
For 50 years Mr.. Sheahan was foreman
Of the paint room at Alden Samp-
sons Sons oil cloth factory and
probably more hard work fell to his
portion during that time than comes to
the ordinary workman in a life time.
He lifted tons and tons of cloth and
saw thousands, perhaps millions of
yards OF the finished product come from
the machine and go to the racks for
drying.
His department was the school for
beginners in the oil cloth trade. After
war there were men of various stations
working under him. Thomas Durham
who was afterwards superintendent Of
the HallOwell plant received his first
insight by working for MIR. Sheehan.
Men who afterwards became ministers

chants or went to other walks of life

O'Brien Wins Smile Skating Race
from Foley at Mathis Rink.

About 1900 people saw the champ
pionship race between William O'Brien
and F. o. Foley of Bangor, at the Ma
this skating rink. Thursday night.
Foley was the previous State champion
and O'Brien the ex-Statc champion.
The tables are now turned. The race
was won by O'Brien by one yard. The
time was 17.40 and the distance five
miles. 1t was an exhibition of fast
skating rarely seen in these parts,
where skating is comparatively a
young sport. The men were never once
during the race more than one yard
apart. In a former race Foley beat
O'Brien by two feet. He has chal-
lenged him for a race, next Friday, ct
Bangor. The challenge has rot been
accepted, but probably will b sf.er a
reasonable consideration.
