A TALE OF THREE CATS.
They Survive the Fire in the Portland Cit
Building.

They Survive the Fire in the Portland CITY
Building.
The only living things which passed
through the big fire in Portland city
hall, Friday, and came out alive and
little harmed were three cats. They
were found Saturday evening by Col.
f. r. Fay, a Portland newspaper man,
who had been looking over the ruins Tor
them since the morning of the fire.
For three years Col. Fay has fed and
looked after these cats. Night after
night he has gone to a restaurant t, pur-
chased such food as cats especially like
and carried 1t to the city building
where ne has personally seen to 1t that
these cats were fed The cats grew fat
and seek under the colonelS care.
They would run out on the street about
the same hour every morning and walt
Col. Fay's coming with his little bag OF
food and follow along at his heels INTO
the basement of the city building
where they were fed. The night before
the city building burned Col. Fay fed
his cats as usual Then came the big
fire. 1t was so hot that great iron
girders were twisted and bent by the
heat, timbers and furniture far remov-
ed froul actual contact with the flames
were charred and blistered, copper
wires melted, great stone flags were
crumbled and cracked, and no one
would have believed that there could
have been d living thing within the
four walls of the building which contd
survive the blaze. Saturday afternoon
Col. Fay heard plalntive little cry III
response to his calls for his pets, and
aided by some Of the police officers and
county officials he rummaged about and
found 'Rastus" Struggled under big
charred floor timber which III falling
had somehow penned him in. There
was all ugly Gu. ON his head, his fur
was singed and two or three days OF
fasting had not tended to improve his
appearance. Col. Fay managed to get
him released from his prison, which
must have been regular inferno dur
ing the fire, and sent the wounded AMI
NAL to the local animal hospital to be
cared for at his expense. Then he took
up the hunt for the other two cats,
Bob and Jimmie" and found them
alive, penned in by the fallen debris and
about as disconsolate cats as ever were
seen. These animals Col. Fay fed and
found a place for in the temporary
police station over the liquor agency.
But it seems that cats are wiser than
many humans; they don't like the smell
of liquor, and so far they have refused
to accept their new home and the
probabilities are that they will become
wanderers again,

ILLS HOW TO MIX IT.
Directions to Prepare Simple, Yet Remark
able Home Mixture.

A well-known authority on Rheumatism
gives the readers of large New York daily
paper the following valuable, yet simple
and harmless prescription, which any one
can easily prepare at home.
Fluid Extract Dandeion, one-half oQnce; ;
Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound
Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces.
Mix by shaking well in a bottle, and take
a teaspoonful after each meal and at bed
time.
He states that the ingredients can be OBJ
tanned from any good prescription pharmacy
at small cost, and, being of vegetable ex-
traction, are harmless to take
This pleasant mixture, if taken regularly
for few days, is said to overcome almost
any case of Rheumatism. The pain and
swelling, if any, diminishes with each dose,
until permanent results are obtained, and
without njuring the stomach. While there
are many so-called Rheumatism remedies,
patent medicines, etc, some of which do
give relief, few really give permanent re-
suits, and the above will, no doubt, be great
Iy appreciated by many sufferers here at
this time.
Inquiry at the drug stores of this neigh
borhood ELECTS the information that these
drugs are harmless and can be bought sepa-
rately, or the druggists here will mix the
prescription for our readers if asked to.

MAINE CATTLE ALL RIGHT.
Only per Cent Condemned of Those FL
amined.

ONLY 4 per Cent Condemned of Those Ex-
amined.
A fact gratifying to the dalrymen OF
the State was announced in the annual
report, Jan. 2Sth, of the Maine Cattle
commissioners, to the effect that the
past year only four percent OF cattle
examined by the tuberculin test were
diseased, whereas in 1905 and 1906 six
percent of the grade cattle and 20 per
cent of the pure bloods tested with
turberculin were diseased. The past
wear 20, 900 head were tested and SOP
condemned. Sixty-eight horses and SO
sheep also were condemned. Inc
amount expended for cattle, horses and
expenses during the year was S23, 346.
There were over 5000 cattle sold to
Brighton, Mass, and only 40 were re
ported back to the commissioners as
falling to pass the tuberculln test. Inc
Maine laws do not give the commits
siuners control oversanltary conditions
except where contagious disease Is
found. "The demand for our products
and the prices they command say the
commissioners, indicate that condl-
lions are growing better all along the
line"

The Court House at Wiscasset

In common with many of the Maine
newspapers The Journal published a
news item to the effect that the court
house at Wiscasset, a wooden building,
had been destroyed by fire. The Maine
Court Cottager makes this correction
con! No! You are misinformed,
brother. The Lincoln county cour,
house was a brick building with tin
ned roof and stone and brick floors
Its vaults for public records were mas
sively built of granite, with iron doors,
and besides, it didn't suffer ''destruc
ton by fire" at all. A big woodeI
church nearby was burned to the
ground, and the caves and small wood
en- belfry on the court house scorched a
little-that was ALL"

A Big Leather Board Mill.

The largest leather board mill III the
world has just been built and equipped
at Herkimer N. Y. under the super
vision of Maine boy, Alsel G. Den
ming of East Poland, and is now in op-
Grafton with him as superintendent
Mr.. Denning is the son of W. W. Den
ming, agent of the mill of the National
Fiber Board Company at East Poland,
and received his practical training in
that mill and in another owned by the
same company at kennebunk. He is a
graduate of Bowdoin in the class OF 1905
and is well remembered in athletic cir
cIes as the Maine and New England
champion in the shot and hammer and
as captain of Bowdoin's championship
track team of 1905.

CEMENT HOUSES.

They VIII Be Built While You Wait.
Houses built of cement, requiring
only day or two for their construc.
ton and costing only few hundred
dollar; each, will soon solve the tene-
ment problem of the great cities. This
is the declaration of distinguished dele
gates to the fourth annual convention
aud exhibition of the National AssOca-
ton of Cement Users, in Buffalo, N. Y.
The largest and most elaborate exhi-
bition and demonstration of cement
products ever held in the United States
was held by the association in the Sixty
fifth Regiment ArmOry, which has more
actual floor space than in Madison
Square Garden. Visitors had an oppor-
tunity to see, by example and demon
stration, the progress that has been
made in cement and concrete cOnstruc-
ton, especially as it applies to the build
ing of small dwelling houses in which
the average individual is interested.
Thomas A. Edison has recently been
giving much of his time to the prob
lens of cement construction, and has
announced that it is now possible to
build two-family, three-story, fire
proof house, fitted with all modern
conveniences. at cost of 1000. Such
a house could be rented for from 81 to
$40 month, with a fair profit to the
owner
The declaration of "WiZard' Edison
aroused great interest among the dele
gates to the convention. Many men
of wealth have announced that II
Edison's plan proves practicable, they
will construct hundreds of cement
houses near New York, Boston, Chi
cago, Philadelphia and other large cit
les, as measure of practical philan-
thropy for the tenement jewellers.

OF INTEREST TO TEACHERS.

1t will be of interest to the teachers
in this vicinity to know that, through
the cooperation of the State Depart
ment of Public Instruction with the
authorities of the State University,
arrangements have been made Whereby
teachers who attend the Summer
Session of the University may obtain
a certificate stating the courses they
have completed and the credits given
for each course. These certificates
will be signed by the President of the
University and the State Superinten-
dent of Public Instruction.. The
names of these teachers and the
courses taken will be kept on file at
the office of the State superintendent
and will doubtless be of great value to
those teachers i'll Maine who possess
them.
Hereafter no work will be given i'll
the Summer Schools conducted by the
State Department of Public lnstruc-
ton along the line OF secondary sub
jects, but ample provision VIII be
made for instruction i'll these subjects
at the University.
1t will also be of interest to superln-
tendents and principals to know that
Smith will be men,
Der of the teaching staff of the Sum
mer Term and will give course OF
lectures on superintendent" These
lectures and the regular courses offered
by DR.. Davidson, of the Department
of Education, should prove attractive
to large number of Maine teachers.

POTATO DISEASES In 1907.
Bulletin of the Maine Agricultural Expert
ment station.

Bulletin of the Maine Agricultural Expert
ment Station.
The potato is subject to many dis
eases requiring constant vigilance on
the part of the grower. That spraying
with bordeaux mixture is a paying
operation has been amply demonstrate
ed Whether the generally adopted
methods for applying fungicdes can be
improved, and whether dry bordeaux
can be successfully and economically
substituted for the wet form are ques-
lions of the greatest Importance to the
Maine farmer.
These subjects are discussed in Bulle-
tin 149, just issued by the Maine Ex-
pertinent Station. Among the other
questions dealt with in the same bulle-
tin are: the relative efficiency of light
and heavy spraying; the treatment of
seed potatoes with formaldehyde gas
for the purpose of preventing scab; an
easy and economical way of generating
formaldehyde gas for this and other
purposes; the effect of lining soil up
on the development of potato scab in
succeeding crops; the appearance in
Maine of pest which seems to be COM
paratively new to this country, known
as the "internal brown spot of the
potato; and the use of red lead as an in
secticide for potatoes.
