The City Blaine Loved

Many years ago Mrs. James G. Blaine
purchased lot of land in Augusta, con-
tanning some ten acres, situated on one
of the charming hillsiees leading out
from Western Avenue, and adjoining
that beautiful 'city of dead" Forest
Grove cemetery. This she intended as
the final resting place of the remains of
her distinguished husband. But as his
remains and that of Mrs. Blaine and
the children rest in the cemetery at
Washington, her great desire will pro-
badly never be realized, Standing in on
this lot in Augusta, in the summer sea-
son, a most cqarmiDg panorama in fold
ed. Near by are the white monuments
marking the graves of those mental
giants, the friends and associates of the
great Blaine-Anson p. Morril, Lot M.
Morrill,, Samuel Cony, James w. North
Samuel Titcomb, and the modest head
stone of Luther Severance. At your
feet is the fair city of Augusta, which
Mr.. Blaine so fondly loved, and the
winding Kennebec, sweeping through
the valley, ten or twelve miles of which
are clearly observable to the naked eye
from this commanding height 1t was
Mr.. Blaine's habit to take all strangers
whom he entertained to the hills about
, his home, and let them feast their eyes
on the enhancing prospect.

quickly you'll feel empty again and
how unfinished the meal will seem.
You can't get any working man to ac-

And he's absolutely right. The only
thing that can take the place of sugar
here is beer or wine. 1t is significant
fact that the freshmen counters run in
connection with bars furnish every
imaginable thing except sweets. Even
ve restaurants and lunch grills attach
ed to saloons OF bars often refuse to
serve desserts of any sort. They know
their business! The more sugar and
sweets man takes at meal, the less
alcohol he wants. Conversely, nearly
every drinking man will tell you that

Doorways Of Hallowell

One of the most artistic and interest
ing Maine books which hts appeared for
a long time is "Doorways of Hallowell
with Historical Sketches" by Rev.
Charles A. Wright, for the past seven
and half years the minister of the Old
South Church, Hallowell. Mr.. Wight
has prefaced his volume with histori-
cal sketch of the city as whole and
then follows a series of illustrations of
many of the beautiful doorways of
HalloWell's old mansions, accompanied
by appreciative sketches of those who
have occupied the houses in years
gone by Hallowell is very rich in ex-
amples of fine colonial architecture and
many of the old house, a large part of
which are more than acentury old have
long been admired by architects and ar
fists. Ike very fact that the CONNER
cial promise of Hallowelps early days
was not fulfilled accounts for the pre-
servation of so many of its old houses
in their original form, and it is probab g
that nowhere in the country can better
examples of old outdoors of the period
Hallowel. The colonial doorway took
on many forms, and nearly all are ex-
amplified in the illustrations of Mr.
Wight's volume and described in the
accompanying text. The flutted COL
umns, the beautiful entablitures, the
deliberately designed muilions. the
heavy brass knockers, the carved pilas-
tiers, the fan top with its keystone-all
these features and others are shown in
the clear halftones of the volume. The
Moody house, the Justin Smith house,
the Longfellow house, the Lord house,
the Governor Hubbard house, the
Watts house, Simeon Page house, the
Stinson house, theGraves house and the
Sanborn house are among those whose
doorways are presented. Mr.. Wight
has done valuable work for local his
tory and the book is sure of a warm
welcome whatever Hollowell's sons and
and daughters are to be found. 1t is is

PAPER FROM PEAT.

WASHINGTON, D. c., DEC. %. The
peat bog furnishes the latest substitute
for wood in the manufacture of paper.
Paper making from peat on CONNER
cial scale has already begun in Sweden,
where a company, capitalized at more
than million dollars, has made extern
.sive purchases of peat bogs and pre-
pared plans for the erection of mills for
turning out wrapping paper and paste
board.
The money for the enterprise comes
largely from. London, but the process
by which the vegetable fiber of the peat
will be converted into paper is covered
by an American patent. An account
of the successful launching of the en-
terprise is given in report of United
States Consul, Mr.. R. S. S. -Bergh, of
Gothenburg, Sweden.
This is not the first effort at paper
making from peat. Some years ago
paper mill was operated by water
power at Culbridge, Ireland. The
patriotic people of the neighborhood
put forth their best efforts to place the
new commodity on the market, and it
was enthusiastically announced that
making paper from the soil of old
Ireland is all established industry"
However, it remained for American
tests to satisfy capitalists that peat
p,a6o rapor u,oul1 command nrion
that would make its manufacture
profitable. 1t is claimed that ton of
paper worth thirty dollars can be made
from peat at total cost of fifteen dol
lars, thus leaving satisfactory margin
of profit. 1t is further claimed that it
takes only two hours to convert the
peat into paper.
1t should not, however, be expected
that peat as material for paper max
ing can take the place of wood pulp for
all purposes. If it helps to meet the
demand for the coarser grades of paper,
and thus relieves the pressure upon the
timber supply, it will do great deal
for the forests of the United States.
The quantity of peat in the world is
enormous. 1t exists in all the coun
tries of Northern Europe and has been
used as fuel for centuries. Deposits
from ten to fifty feet deep and many
miles in extent are not unusual. ST.
IBERIA has thousands of square miles of
peat, and much exists in the United
States and Canada. 1t is a vegetable
substance, deposited by slow accumula-
tions during thousands of years, the
process being similar to that by which
coal was formed.
Many good qualities have been claim
ed for paper made from peat. 1t is
said that an article wrapped in it will
not be attacked by moths, and for that
reason it is assumed to be peculiarly
fitted for boxes and bags for storing
furs and wooden clothing. 1t is further
claimed that process of bleaching will
give the paper snow-white color, and
thus make it equal to the best pulp pa
pers for printing purposes, but THIS
claim does not appear to have been eS-
tablished by actual tests on CONNER
cial SCALE. Wrapping papers, card
boards, and paper boxes made from
peat possess greater strength than
similar articles made from straw.

PREVENTS PNEUMONIA,
Old-FashiOned Home Remedy that is
of Great Value.

In comparing statistics of the fatal
tiles from pneumonia in different
states, it is interesting to notice how
favorably Maine compares with other
states. This is undoubtedly due to the
general use of simple homemade
remedy composed of four tablespoons
full of molasses or honey and one each
of olive oil and Anodyne. Mix well
together and take in teaspoonful doses.
The Anodyne alone is also applied ex-
ternally on the throat and chest If
taken in time, this will absolutely pre-
vent pneumonia.
Neuralgia Anodyne is also invaluable
in all aches and pains, such as neural
gia. headaches, rheumatism, toothache,
bruises, sprains cuts, chilblains, Group,
sore throat etc. A large sized bottle
costs but rs cts, and is sold under a
guarantee of satisfaction or money re-
funded. Made by The Twitchell- Cham

dustrial alcohol.
State: First-A more equal assess
ment of taxes by the creation of a
board of assessors.
Second-A tax on collateral inherit
ances.
Third-Laws guaranteeing the per-
centages of purity of feeding stuffs and
seeds.
Fourth-Providing for better roads.
Fifth-Incretsing the tax on the va
riOus corporations.
Six h-For rural telephone service.
Seventh-Making possible larger and
better rural schools.
Eighth-More liberty to the people
by the initiative and referendum.
These are few acts of positive legis-
lation.
Negatively the Grange has prevented
the passage of many acts that would be
harmful. One instance in the removal
of the State capital, because we did not
deem there was any well grounded rea-
son for a removal at all; I'd, had there
been, we deemed Portland too near one
corner of the State for that location;
Sd, we felt that the hundreds or thou
sands of dollars to be thrown away at
the present site and the millions of dol
lars that the new Capitol building
would cost to somebody in the State
could be used to better purposes.
No more important matter has come
up than the appointment of a commits
sion to recommend some system of
taxation to the next Legislature, and
we trust that the strongest men in the
order will see to it that the Grange
position is fully presented and looked
after. A single false step now may
cost us all we have gained.
Thursday, the closing day, was devot-
ed to cleaning up odds and ends, and
saying goodbye to the city. The pro-
grs m provided several fine vocal solos,
the installation of officers and speeches
by former State Master Gardner and
others. Mr.. Gardner congratulated
State Master Stetson and assured him
of loyal support.
Among the resolutions is one looking
to preservation of our forests, one ask
ing for half-cent per pound from the
corn packers, and the following de-
manding provisions for controlling
the interstate liquor traffic:
