New York, Nov. 15.-Yachting
men manifested much enthusiasm
upon hearing that there will be
race for the Americas Cup in 1908.
This news came as something of a
surprise, for the general run of
yachtsmen finally had been led to
believe that, after all, there really
was nothing in Sir Thomas Lipton's
visit here to ascertain the attitude
of the New York Yacht Club toward
another race.
According to the latest develop
ments, announced upon the best of
authority, the New York Yacht Club
is willing to accept a challenge for a
race in 1908, under the new rules of
measurement This announcement
shows that Sir Thomas, far from
having failed In the object of his
visit here. has been successful. He
came here to arrive at an under
standing for another race, and he
has accomplished the object of his
visit.

Suffering
Will Not Help Your
Disease, but Will
Weaken Your
Nerves.

Folks who think it is better to bear
pain than soothe it-are wrong.
Old-fashoned doctors used to say it
was better, because they had nothing
with which to ease pain but dangerous,
heart paralyzing drugs.
But now, that a safe remedy has
been found, DR.. Miles AntiPain Pills,
it is wrong to suffer, for nothing can be
gained but weakened nerves.
A safe rule to remember is: When
in pain, take an Anti-Pain Pill.
This will soothe your quivering nerves.
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills relieve pain
by restoring the natural secretions. in
which they differ from opium and sim
liar narcotic drugs, which relieve pain
by checking the action of the glands.
They are sure and harmless, and are
the latest medical treatment for the
cure of Headache, Neuralgia, Backache,
rheumatism, Dizziness. Toothache,
Stomachache, Menstrual (Monthly1
Pains. Also nerve irritations like Sea-
Sickness, Car Sickness, Sleeplessness,
Indigestion, etc.
Pleasant to take, quick in results.

Pills for sick, nervous headache, and

TooEe's One-Act PLAY.

Here is good story of the late Mr..
Toole that will be new to many of our
readers:
"What [ want is a bright. short
play" said Toole to the amateur, who
had brought him a six-act drama.
elbow do you mean-a short, bright
drama?" asked the author. "Can you
give me an idea?"
ooh, yes,' said Toole, "here's one.
It's direct and leaves much to the
imagina ton.
cit is i'll one act.
"When the curtain goes up two
persons are discovered on a sofa, one
a pretty young woman, the other a
nice looking young fellow. They
embrace; neither of them says word.
Then door opens at the back, and
commercial traveller enters. He wears
an overcoat and carries an umbrella.
You can tell at once by his manner
that he is the husband of the young
woman. At least, that would be the
Inference of every intelligent play
goer.
The husband takes off his coat,
draws from his pocket a heavy Colts
revolver and in the midst of the silent
embrace of hero and heroine fires.
"The young woman falls dead.
:'He fires again and the young man
is similarly disposed of. Then the
murderer comes forward, puts on a
pair of eyeglasses and proceeds to
contemplate his sanguinary work.

The Story of a Medicine.

It's name-"Golden Medical Discovery"
was suggested by one of its most import
ant and valuable ingredients - Golden
Seal root.
Nearly forty years ago, DR.. Pierce dis
covered that he could, by the use of pure,
triple-refned glycerine, aided by GER
tain degree of constantly maintained
heat and with the aid of apparatus and
appliances designed for that purpose, ex
tract from our most valuable native me-
dicinal roots their curative properties
much better than by the use of alcohol,
so generally employed. So the now world
famed vGolden Medical Discovery" for
the cure of weak stomach, indigestion, or
dyspepsia, torpid liver, or biliOusneSS and
kindred arrangements was first made. as
it ever since has been, without a particle
of alcohol in its makeup.
A glance at the full list of its ingredi-
entS. printed on every bottle-wrapper
will show that it is made from the most
valuable medicinal roots found growing
in our American forests. All these in
gradients have received the strongest en-
dorsement from the leading medical ex-
perts. teachers and writer's on Mdte1iG
Medical who recommend them as the very
best remedies for the diseases for which
"Golden Medical Discovery" is advised.
A little book or these endorsements mas
been compiled by DR.. R. V. Pierce, of
Buffalo, n. Y, and will be mailed free to
any one asking same by postal card, or
letter addressed to the Doctor as above.
From these endorsements, copied from
standard medical books of all the differ
ent schools of practice, it will be found
that the ingredients composing the "GOld-
en- Medical Discovery" are advised not
only for the cure of the above mentioned
diseases, but also for the cure OF all ca
tarrhal, bronchial and throat affections,
accompanied with catarrhal discharges,
hoarseness, sore throat, lingering, or
hang-on- coughs, and all those wasting
affections which, if not promptly and
properly treated are liable to terminate
in consumption. Take DR.. Pierce's Dis
covery in time and persevere in its use
until you give it fair trial and it is not
likely to disappoint. Too much must not
be expected of it. 1t will not perform
miracles 1t will not cure consumption
in it's advanced stages. No medicine will
It 1Oal cure the affections that lead up to
consumption, If taken in time.

Payment in Kind.

James Mcneil Whistler, the famous
painter, had French poodle of which
he was extravagently fond. The
poodle was seized with an affection of
the throat, and Whistler had the aud
acity to send for the great throat

Sir Morell, when he saw that he had
been called in to treat dog, didn't
like it much, but he said nothing. He
prescribed, pocketed big fee, and
drove away.
The next day he sent post haste for
Whistler; and Whistler, thinking he
was summoned on some matter con-

his work and rushed like the wind to
Mackenzie's.
"How do you do, Mr.. Whistler? I

QUAINT OLD JURY BOX.

ing story OF the growth of the town

years.
The box itself is like most other
boxes made in the early part OF the
eighteenth century, doyetailed at the
corners and glued together. II is not
large box. yet the names OF many
Of Lynn's best citizens have been
drawn from II for service on a jury
sitting in judgment on their FELLOW
men.
On the bottom OF the box are tho
figures -"1732," and It is thought that
this Is the date the box was made.
BY whom II was constructed nobody
seems TO know, and nothing can he
found in the old town records regard
ing its use However II is known
that Il was used nearly 200 years
aud that It Is probably the oldest box
in Lynn to-day
From the time n was constructed
until 1903 It was in constant use
But as the years rolled by and tho
town grew into a city. and small
city into one OF great proportions, the
box proved too small to hold the
names OF the jurors.
In 1908 City Clerk Joseph w Att
will ordered new jury box to b
made. This is Of oak and much larger
than the old box Soon after the com
pletion of the new box the old box
was presented 10 the Lynn Historical
society. and at present rests In a large
wall cabinet
The box has = bail Of marlborough
