The Washington Guards defeated Tur'
ners Falls at Fitchburg. Mass, Saturday
evening By a score OF 43 to y. Jimmy
Doran was with the Turner'S Falls team
and had hard work TO follow Molaghan.
The Fitchburg Sentinel says OF these two
players: But while the result OF the
meeting between the two teams was OF
importance, the duels between the va
rious members OF the two teams was Just
as interesting and enjoyable as the team
fight. First OF all came the scrap between
Joe Molaghan Of this city and Jimmy
Doran, manager OF the Brattleboro team,
and much wanted player wherever the
game is played. These two men were
opposed to each other and for few min
utes had a nice little fight, but before
the contest had been under way very
long. Molaghan proved the superior and
BY the greatest kind of work succeeded in
losing the stocky back But while Mola-
CHAN played whirl.wind game and was
the star OF the contest, getting 20 OF the
points, Doran was not at his best. He
had hand game Friday night, against
Gloyersville, and went onto the floor here
n pretty tired man. Only at times did
he display glances of his brilliant form,
but that was not frequent enough to hold
Molaghan in check. Joe was all to the
good, getting 10 baskets.

A COMMON ERROR.
The Same Mistake Is Made by Man!
Brattleboro People.

It's a common error
To plaster the aching back,
To rub with liniments rheumatic
joints,
When the trouble comes from the
kidneys.
Doan 3 Kidney Pills cure all kidney
ills,
And are endorsed by Brattleboro cit
liens.
C. F. Veet of 90 Chestnut street,
Brattleboro, VT, says: ~ can honestly
say that Doan 3 Kidney Pills are the
best remedy I ever used. l was trou-
bled for four or five years with kidney
complaint. I had pains across my
loins, headaches and dizziness, and
whenever 1 took cold it seemed to ag-
gravate the trouble. There was too
frequent action of the kidney secre-
lions and if I overworked it would
seem as though my head was in whirl.
I tried different remedies but they
did not appear to suit my case. Hay
ing heard about the merits of Doan g
Kidney Pills, 1 got box at F. d. Hol-
den g drug store. After using them a
short time 1 plainly noticed the good
effect the we're having. I continued
taking thu. and gradually but surely
improved. l found Doan's Kidney
Pills splendid medicine, and advise
others to try them"

The Deer and Dog Question.

County Fish and Game Warden R. L.
Frost has received notice from M. g.
Putnam of Wardsboro in regard to the
finding of a yearling buck deer in ter
rible condition as the result of being at
tackled by dogs. When discovered in the
woods the animal was SO weak that it
could hardly stand. Its legs and hind
quarters were bitten so severely that the
cords were exposed. Mr.. Putnam caught
the animal by the horns and with the
misery.
Mr.. Frost says that people of this coun-
ty have little idea of the havoc, that dogs
are working among the deer this winter
and he is of the belief that the law as
it now stands does not give the fish and
game authorities sufficient power to deal
with the matter. Mr.. Frost now has con-
fined on his farm one dog which he
caught chasing deer. Two Others which
he had in custody be has been Obliged to

TIMBER FOR sPooLs.
Factories in Maine Turn Out Eight
Hundred Million Annually.

Small things are not to be overlooked
in considering the problems OF the fu
ture timber supply. The matchmaker II
having as much trouble in getting the
grade of wood necessary for his business
as the dealer in telegraph poles. 80,
One OF the industries which deals with
small things, yet, which is one OF the
utmost importance to the countrys com
merce, is the manufacture and export OF
spool wood. This business is peculiar e
the New England states, and Is conferred
in Maine. Spool factories OF TINS stats
are now turning out eight hundred mil.
lion spools annually, with market Value
Of nearly 100000.
The best quality OF timber is used for
the manufacture Of spools. White birch,
which is used almost exclusively for this
industry, reaches the factory in the form
of bars from IL to GIG inches square
and from IL to 4 feet long; These
bars must be absolutely clear. The. blrch
Is cut in winter and sawed in small port
able mills which operate near some rail-,
road line, about 2 l-3 cords being required
for 200 feet of bars. After saving the
bars are piled criss-cross, in order &c
facilitate thorough seasoning, and protect
ed from the weather, are allowed to sea
son until June. The spool bar mills IN
Maine turn out about 10 million feet OF
bars during the year and approximately
the same amount of material is manufac'
tured into spools in the state.
The machines for making spools are
complicated and require skilled men fol
their operation. The spools drop from the
lathe at the rate Of one per second and
must be perfectly uniform and true. The
finished spools are marketed in this coun'
try largely in Rhode Island, Connecticut
New York and New Jersey, while the
spool bars are largely exported te
Hull and fleetwood, England. Shipments
to these points are made mostly from Ban
cor, as much as eight million feet having
been sent from that port in a season.

n @. Baxter and His Big Six.

Local automoblists, particularly those
who drive Stevens-Duryea cars, will be m
terested in the following letter written by
II. c. Baxter proprietor OF the Snowflake
corn canning factory: 49, =. r,
II am an owner of a big Six Stevens
Duryea car which have used ii 300 miles
during the past season. This car has been
in constant use over our rough Maine
roads as far east as Quebec have made
several trips through the Crawford Notch,
down through Vermont, and one trip to
New York city via Crawford Notch
from there to Albany, n. ", across New
York state into Massachusetts, over the
Hoosac mountains, this climb being done
ON no lower gear than the intermediate,
although the car carried seven passengers,
two large trunks and lot of other bag
gage. 1t has been used between our can
neries in Vermont, Westminster to Brat
tleboro, and then to Windsor, and gen.
orally back to Westminster-a distance OF
100 miles almost daily for about six weeks.
1t has had every test that one ought to
give a car.
"The net results may be summed up
briefly as follows: have had no trouble
that one would not be apt to have IN
four-cylinder car. | have not had 5O, per
cent. more such trouble than ! used to
have in fOur-cyllnder. ms slX-cyInuer
car has been kept in commission much
easier than any car l ever owned. have
laid out much less money on it than on
any of them for repairs. l shall use the
Big Six in 1908, and when it has been
oyerhauled l cannot see why it will not
be as good for service as when it was
new. / have demonstrated not only, to
nv own satisfaction that the six is bet
ter in all respects than four, but my
friends have taken my advice and bought
skies, and they feel the same. as l do
about the comparative merits Of the four
and the six. There are two Stevens Dur
yea light skies in my family, and ! have
ordered a light six of the same make. for
runabout for 1908 use. The big six l
have written about is not my first or Sec
ond automobile. l have had II other cars
before / purchased this one."
