CARD OF THANKS.

ITO all our many friends, who have so gem

US in our late bereavement, and were so kind
to our dear one during her illness, we extend
our heartfelt thanks
CLARA L, BowDES AND FAMILY.
Sargentville, Dec. IL. 1903.
Ellsworth American., 1908-12-16

There is rejoicing in most families when
the stork calls and leaves boy; when that
kindly bird leaves two, the family is con-
graduated on every hand, but when three
are left to grace the fireside, the whole
town celebrates. This occurred down in
the town Of Orland just year ago on the
ed of this month, and the thrice blessed
parents were MIR. and Mrs. Rodney w.
Gray. The three boys now weigh twenty
one pounds, twenty-five and one half
pounds and twenty-four pounds respect
lively, and will answer to the cognomens
Kenneth, Kermit and Kelsey. At birth
their weights were six, six and one-fourth
and seven and one fourth pounds. They
are plump and rosy pictures OF health, and
have never seen a sick day, except the va
rious little ills that all babies have to con-
tend with. They are bright, active and
beautiful children, all three. During the
past summer many OF the summer visitors
have called at the Gray home and the boys
have been showered with presents. They
took in the Orland fair and were the CEN
tre Of attraction. The Grays live in pretty
home at Orland. The father is q shore
fisherman on the schooner Marion +. Tur-
ner, of Orland, well known along the
coast where the fame OF his ssbig CATCH
has spread, and many a hearty hail and
inquiry as to his screw" at home greet
him from the hardy fishermen. Mrs. Gray
is in excellent health, and there's not a
prouder mother In the world.-Bangoy

ArizOna's Growth

Another line on the ra apidity with which Arizona is settling up is se- cured through the operations of the land office. In the regular annual appropriation made for the survey. ing and resurveying of public lands an allotment of $2O.OOO was made to Arizona. This became availa- ble about three months ago and since that time sufficient mum Der of surveys have been ordered to almost exhaust this appropriation. It is believed that at least another $1OOOO will be allotted to Arizona to space out the other nine months with. The chief interest in the news item lies in the fact that survey of any particular township may be ordered only on the appli- cation of three or more settlers. As sufficient number of settlers have applied for surveys to exhaust a fund designed to run a year. it is very evident the work of home building on the public lands is go, ing ahead faster than ever before.

 This was the statement of Preei- dent Roosevelt today when Gov. Curry presented to the president the invitation engraved on a gold plate from the people of New Mex. ioe. asking him to be their guest at the irrigation congress. The pres ident tha nked the governor for the invitation and said that he would acknowledge it's receipt to Colonel Hopewell, of the board of control. He said that he would like to make the trip. but was not sure he could get away. He intimated, however. that he would like to do SO. and that if he did Albuquerque would he one of his stopping places.- Albuquerque Citizen.

A STRANGE STATEMENT

Not murderer whose body ever went to the grave from the death chairs in use in New York and New Jersey was ever killed by the electric current. Every one met death from the disseoting knives of the surgeons or were smothered in quick lime with which their bodies were surrounded after ih.i" so- called deaths" That is the as. founding statement made in New York by Dr Peter J. Gibbons fol- lowing the reconciliation sf laborer supposedly killed by cleo, rici'y in 6 city manhole. Gibbons is peti- tioning the state authorities for leave to rssuscitate any criminal killed" in the chair. Not because 1 want to embarrass." he says. "hut as a means of proving ,har in ,., hundreds of accidental deaths by electric shock many a life now lost may be saved by prompt and in telligent treatment"
 In support of his contention Gih bsns cites the case of . negro mur- derer, Taylor, who he says came to life in Auburn prison after he had been killed" by electricity in the death chair. The doctor says that Taylor came to life again, and as the armiture of the dynamo had been turned out the prison physi- clans were forced to destroy his life by chloroform and by strychnins. Fearful of public sentiment the government kept the ghastly secret for years and it is only recently that it has been published in gov ernment reports" It Is with the view of aiding general medical practice that Gibbons is moving to get permission to revive executed murdsrers. "A man 'killed' by electricity" he declared, ''is simply a parallel to the stopping of clock by the motion of it's pendulum. Another push. often a very slight one, will again start it ticking off the seconds. The man is no more dead than is one who has been un- der water till his sensibilitY has fled. In ninety nine of a hundred cases of deaths by electricity, ani- nations may be. and if physicians realized the situation, could be re- stored.-New York Letter.

Germs and Things

Don't breathe-the germs will get their work in on your lungs.
 But did you ever notice what husky lot of men make up the street cleaning brigades-I guess they breathe about as many germs al a man can we'll brea the and live.
 Boil the water--it's full of germs and bacilli.
 But did you ever notice how healthy the hoboes are, and I guess they drink about as many kinds of water, and other things. as man can we'll drink and avoid diphthe- ria, typhoid. jaundice, phlebitis, lum bago, rheumatism and looomo- tor ataxia.
 Eat regularly and avoid over eating-that's a grave danger.
 But did you ever notice the appe tite of the small boy who can eat three square meals a day. with big lunches in between, to say nothing of green apples and watermelons and peaches and bananas? I guess the average small boy loses noth- ing by ignoring the advice of the scientific sharps.
 Must be whole lot of gulf about this germ business, after all.-Ex.
