made public the agony suffered by the
raalaents on that slightly avenue. They
have the most beautiful river on the

wide prospect on beyond the lordly
stream that carries so much freight
and so many passengers to the city or
the sea. But also, the beautiful river
~ Infested with swarms Of boats Of

has q whistle, and that whistle is blown
many times in the course Of day and

Lying about east and west, fiat

Two long bars, extending northwest
erly aud northeasterly, make of II a

fishing 80 good or 80 dangerous as
close in on these bars, and the closer
in and shoaler the water the better
the fishing. There a few men alive
in Gloucester wha have been in close
enough to see the surf break on the
bare bar, but that was in soft weather
and the bar to windward, and they in
variably got out in a hurry.
Two hundred and odd wrecks Of one
kind or another, steam and SAIL have
settled in the sands of Sable island.
OF this there is clear aud iudisputablc

that have been driven ashore on the
long bars on dark and stormy nights
or In the whrls Of nowstorms and
swallowed up in the fine sand before

Brain

Brain workers suffer from
headache because they over-tax
and exhaust the brain nerves.
Tired, irritated, turbulent
brain nerves throb and ache I;
this weakens the brain power,
and robs the memory.
Dr.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills
bring tranquility to the ex-

If not relieved, this nerve
disturbance is frequently ex-
tended to the stomach, causing

are convenient to take-just a
little tablet, that in a few mo-

leave no disagreeable after
