SUIT AGAINST A CITY.

Suit has been brought against the
city of Auburn by the International
Textbook Co. of Scranton, Pa, it being
claimed that the ordinance which pro-
hibits distributing hand bills, etc., on
the streets is unconstitutional and in
violation of the United States inter-
State Commerce Law. Section 4S
of chapter 43 of the ordinances of the
city of Auburn states that mo person
shall distribute in the public streets or
from any building, hand-bills, cards,
circulars, papers of any description ex-
cept newspapers" The penalty is not
to exceed $40 for each offence. The
representatives of the school some
weeks ago asked the authorities if they
would be allowed to distribute adver-
Using matter along the streets and
were told of the ordinance and also in
formed that there was nothing prohibit
ing the leaving of the advertising mat
ter at the dwelling houses and stores
Later the Correspondence School,
through an attorney, began a suit
against the city and the hearing has
been set for the first Monday in Sep
TENDER. The case will be fought to a
finish by tine city authorities. The Lew
iston Sun says: auburn citizens have
great pride in the appearance of their
city and the police have faithfully en-
forced the ordinance prohibiting the
distributing of hand-bills, ETC., on the
streets and as result the streets have
been kept quite free from paper"

A $12, 900, 900 DAM.
The Mt. Waldo Granite Co. May Furnish
Stone for Tremendous Structure in Ulster

The Mt. Waldo Granite Co. May Furnish
County, n. Y.
That the Mt. Waldo Granite Co. of Frank
fort will furnish the stone for the tremen-
dous Ashokan dam in Ulster county, New
York, the first step in the construction of
New York city's new S160OOO,000 water
supply system, is more than probable. The
bids were opened Aug. 18th and while no
word has yet been received at Frankfort,
regarding the outcome of the competition
the office of the John Peirce Co. in New
York may already have the news that the
contract is theirs. The estimate for the
dam is $12,OO000O. The New York Herald
of Wednesday morning had the following !:
Five bids were received by the Board of
Water Supply in New York Tuesday for
the contract to build the AshOkan dam, in
Ulster county, one of the largest engineer
ing feats ever undertaken. While the con-
tract has not been awarded, it is predicted
that the John PIERCE Company, Of No. 90
West street, will get the contract. The
bid OF this company, in rough estimate, is
said to be more than million dollars less
will be below the $12, 100000 estimate. The
award probably will be made Thursday.
Seven years are allowed to complete the
work. The dam will hold 10000, OOO,O 900
gallons of water, and will cover 16, 800 acres.
depth of 81 feet will be required and the
wall will be 1000 feet long on the main
span and have two wings of 1000 feet each.
Altogether, with wings and bikes, the dam
will be about four miles long. The reser-
voir will be lake - miles long and two
miles wide,

A Word of Warning.

This talk about finding gold or iron or
copper in paying quantity in the soil Of
Maine is all moonshine. Traces of each
of these have been found, and in past
years speculation was rife and fortunes
were sunk At the present time GER
tain parties are attempting to arouse in
terest here in our possibilities for pro-
ducing iron. But it can be shown con-
clusively that with the present facilities
and remoteness from market, iron can
not be produced here at profit. There
is great wealth in Maine, but it lies in
her agriculture, her vast forests, her
granite, slate and lime quarries, her
water power, her ice, her magnificent
scenery and unsurpassed summer re-
sorts. There is real and increasing
wealth to those who seek to develop and
make the most of these.
"Plow deep to find the gold, my boys,
Plow deep to find the god.'
Put not your money in stocks and
bonds to float any visionary mining
scheme; but put your hand to the pillow
in honest and faithful toll, and you
shall have your reward.-Somerset Re-
porter.

Good Habits Cure Bad Nerves.

DR.. Bertram L. Bryant of Bangor re-
Gently read a paper before the Maine
Medical Association, in which he gave
some advice on the rearing of nervous
children. Imagine child" said DR..
Bryant, Grained only as neurasthenic
mother can train her child" And then
he proceeds to present an argument
which reads as if it came from Chris
tan Scientist, in the following words
Lacking in self control herself and be-
set by morbid fears and worries, she
builds into the developing mental life a
system of abnormal habits, the control
ling power of the child's life. So the
child grows up selfish and self induigent,
disobedient and absolutely lacking in
self control. She acquires system OF
worries, and with the first stress of life
come the various functional derange-
ments of the unstable sympathetic sys-
TEN, and the misery has begun. When
such a patient presents herself fol-
treatment, what is to be done? First
of all, if possible, gain her confidence,
show her that you are interested in her
case. Satisfy yourself that you have a
patient in whom the psychical element
greatly predominates, or is the cause OF
the whole trouble. Then the course is
plain, and you can confidently promise
that you can help her.
DR.. Bryant says that the nervous
patient must be taught self-control.
An optimistic philosophy must be
taught. Such sufferers must be brought
| up to level where they can see there
is something in life worth living for
and he recommends for the worry habit
''the substitution of a habit of healthy
mindedness. This sort of advice
usually brings sarcastic smile from
the patient, who remarks that it is
easier said than done. But by sticking
to it habits can be formed, according to
DR.. Bryant, that bring the needed re.
lief. Besides, it is time the doctors did
something for the neurasthenics to
keep them from going over to the other
cults. The doctors are to blame fol-
! this, according to DR.. Bryant, and in
his concluding remarks he takes his
! professional brethren to task as follows
81 wish to call attention to the great
interest the people in general are taking
! in psychotherapeutics. One little real
ICES until he begins the investigation
| how many creeds and cults are being
| given out by more or less unscrupulous
| people, or the great number of theil
following. Healers, many from the more
or less ignorant classes, abound every
where. They are all busy, especially
with the neurotics. There is such q
demand for their literature that severa
large publishing houses have sprung w
to furnish the supply. In the larger
cities the physicians are beginning te
keenly feel the result. What has
brought this about more than anything
else is the blind tenacity with which
the profession has ignored the psychi
cal and chung to the materialistic side
of treatment. Unless they wake up tt
this fact and learn to give their patients
rational scientific psychic treatment al
the same time with the physical, thu
treatment of the psychoneurotic viii
! pass very quickly from the educated
well equipped physician into the hands
of the charlatan and to the SO called
mental healers.
