No better evidence that the fall
season has arrived than by visit to
Delano's popular candy store, where
will be found most tempting array
of homemade sweets, more than %
kinds, varying in prices from 10c to
40c per ID. Our people have long
since learned that absolute purity
holds sway over everything manu-
featured at Delano's.
The members of Golden Rod Branch,
]. s. s., are to serve clam chowder

Mrs. John Holland and her two sons,
Edward and William, left on the early
train yesterday morning for Los
Angeles, Cal. The trip is made on
account of the health of the eldest
son, Edward, who is afflicted with
asthma. They are to go to the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. Barney McCollor,
formerly Of this place, on their arrival.
and will afterward establish them
selves in home of their own. If the
climate is found beneficial, Mr.. Hol-
land, will probably join them later and
the whole family will remain for the
winter at least.
Quite number of Skowhegan gen
tlemen, members of Kora Temple,
order of the Mystic Shrine. took the
train, Tuesday morning, to join in the
pilgrimage of that organization to
Houlton. They were Frank w. Buck
nam, Chas. A. Ross, Col. Albert G..
Blunt, DR.. l.. A. Dascombe, j. Wal
lace Blunt, Bin w. Page, Chas. F.
Ward, Walter p. Ordway and David
A. Haig. 1t seems that between one
and two hundred candidates, resi-
dents of Aroostook county, have been
waiting to take the degree of the
Shrine and it was thought best to GO
to Houlton, a convenient center for
that section, and hold meeting for
the purpose of admitting them.
Mrs. William M. Pitts had quite an
injury, Monday, her horse taking
fright at pile of roofing tin, as she
was driving along the highway near
the residence of Chas. Folsom Jones,
on Middle Road. The animal backed
the CARR age into the ditch where il
overturned and Mrs. Pitts escaped
falling under it only by timely LEAP
to the ground. Notwithstanding the
horse was by this time wildly frantic
she grasped him by the bride and
succeeded in holding him until helI
arrived. The men who arrived OF
the scene did not think it was best tc
harness the horse again and he was
led home and given chance to calm
down.
