kENT'S HILL,

George r. Holmes, an aged and hon.
ored citizen of Readfield died Monday,
Feb. 4. at his home at Kent's Hill. He
was born in Boston, June 81, 1916 and
in early life became a ship carpenters
apprentice, later becoming a successful
contractor. In 1883, changes in the
ship building industry and failing
health combined to turn him from ac-
tive business pursuits. Coming to
Maine for visit. his health was so
improved that he decided to remain
permanently and for "a years he has
shared helpfully in the life Of the COM
munity. Becoming associated with the
Baptist church in boyhood, and a gen.
erOus giver to every cause which APP
pealed to him, he was staunch in his
loyalty to Christian faith and service
to the end. He was twice married.
Mrs. Rachel (Cummings) Holmes. the
devoted companion of "a years of hap
py home life survives to mourn his
loss.

der all chastenings they must try to
be quiet and humble; but young hope
full finds 1t all very much of a bore,
longs to be away to kick free heels in
a very good and joyous world of green
fields and still waters, and will have
none Of it.
To preach that life is a matter of
eternal sacrifice to the ~exuberant one
of youth and health is to shake their
faith In III doctrine as well as sanity.
Religion, 1t is true, helps us to bear
sorrow; but to speak only Of this side
of 1t Is to make of 1t a matter Of
gloom, which is easily an injustice to
the subject and a thing which will do
1t more harm than good.
Youth should hear rather of the doc.
trine Of that love which showers Joy
and happiness. Let the matter Of sor-
row be left always in the background
until the sad inevitable time comes
when it must needs be inevitably
faced.
Too sadly often Is 1t true that life
comes to be a matter Of sacrifice SOON
or or later, but when 1t comes II Is
time enough to think Of 1t or speak Of
II Or preach resignation to 1t.

POINTERS.

There Is no danger of overlooking
ground dry bone, A liberal box full
may be provided and the fowls
will help themselves. 1t is benef-
cial.
If roup makes its appearance in
the flock, lose no time in isolating
the affected birds, to prevent the
disease spreading, and give a vigor-
GUS and prompt treatment.
Geese are surprisingly strong and
vigorous, and will thrive on food
that is rejected by other fowls. They
stand, without injury, cold, damp
weather that any other fowl could
not possibly endure.
We pity the fowl or chick that is
~unprovided with shade during these
hot, sweltering days. II you have no
natural shade in the way Of shrubs or
trees, make a frame of boards and
cover with muslin or canvas.
A spoonful of coal oil In the drink.
ing water once a week Is a good thing
at this time Of year. Many diseases
are held in check this way. The oil
floats on the water and the chicken
gets q little Of it every time it drinks,
Pulverized charcoal should be SET
where the hens can partake Of II
when desired. Besides Frightening
the plumage, 1t is a conditioner that
has few equals. II you have no burnt
wood char some corn till almost black
and 1t will answer the same purpose
The hens begin to look ragged ow,
ing to losing their feathers. They are
beginning to molt and need extra care
and attention during this period, 50 as
to get them over the melting period
as quickly as possible. Plenty Of
nourishing food should be given then
and their quarters kept clean ant
free from lice.

FOR SELFISH ENDS.
The Efforts Being Made by the Amcri.
can Medical Association.

The Political activity of the Ameri-
can Medical Association has become
so pronounced as to cause comment
in political circles especially as the
the avowed purpose of the Doctors of
the Regular or Allopathic school, Of
which the Association is chiefly COM
posed, Is to secure the passage of such
laws as will not only prevent the
sale of so-called patent" medicines,
but will restrict the practice Of medi-
cine and healing to the schools" now
recognized. This in many states would
prevent the growing practice of Os-
teopathy, and in nearly every state
would prevent the healers of the
Christian Science and mental science
belief from p~racticing those sciences
in which the faith of so many intelli'
gent people is so firmly rooted.
The American Medical Association
has a Committee on Legislation"
and the committee has correspond
ents in practically every township
some 10000 correspondents in all.
This committee at the last session Of
the American Medical Association
held in June of this year expressed a
hope that a larger number Of physi-
clans than heretofore will offer them
selves as candidates for Congress at
the first opportunity. In it's annual
report this Committee said: ITO meet
the growing demands of the nov
ment, however, particularly If the
work of active participation in State
legislation Is undertaken, a larger
clerical force must be employed"
This is almost the first time in the
history of the United States that any
organized class has frankly avowed
the purpose of capturing legislatures
and dominating legislation In their
W selfish interests.
The American Medical Association
has about $4,000 members of whom
1000 are fully constituted mem
bers' and the rest are members be-
cause of their affiliation with state or
local societies. The Association owns
real estate in Chicago valued at SILL
1871 and its total assets are $751;
$3.50. Its liabilities, at the time of
the annual report which was made at
the June meeting, amounted to only
$21, 906. The excess of assets over
liabilities is increasing at the rate Of
about 100000 a year, and the purpose
Of the organization is to dominate
the field of medicine, and by crushing
all competitions by securing the pas
sage Of prohibitive legislation, compel
all of the people of the United States
to pay a doctors fee every time the
most simple remedy is needed.

bodines Of Disease.

A medical student looked UP mood
lily from the pharmacopoeia that he
was reading for next year.
Medicine is a strange science" he
said, in an awed voice. why, 1t is
terrifying. Every little thing is a
danger signal-a sign that you may
soo begin to endure the tortures of
some incurable disease.
Suppose that in the dark you can't
stand still, or that you cant with your
eyes shut, either-you topple over.
Well, that is the danger signal of

most painful, the most hopeless, the
most revolving nature.

PLAIN TALKS WITH WOMEN.
Life Is to Many Persons a Matter Of
Sacrifice.

Is life a matter of sacrifice, asks
Louise Satterthwaite in the Philadel-
phia Telegraph.
Many very worthy people, having
gone through life and endured their
share of its trials and ~misfortunes, at
tune their minds to the sombre key,
and go softly the rest Of their days;
subdued and depressed, they dare not
lift their eyes above the earth level Of
their sorrows: patient, it is true, but
undeniably m%ournful, they round out
the years Of their pilgrimage.
But bounding youth knows naught
of this submission, and to make it
kiss the rod, SO to speak, when to it
no rod Is visible, far or near, is to
breed up a spirit Of Impotence, not to
say revolt.
We often behold an elderly aunt
or perhaps a patient and devoted fa-

young hopefuls see that they are pris.
