814s,eoa,13o GIVEN AWAY.

The New York Tribune says that az
effort has been made to make compila.
ton of all the benevolent gifts of the
year 1907, and the result has been re-
ports of gifts aggregating $14s, 9O2, 100,
although it is realized that this sum
does not include an immense number
of small gifts, reports of which it has
been impossible to get.
In general terms, the gifts repre-
sented in the above total have been dis
tributed as follows: Educational in
situations, SO, 915, 542; religious institu-
tions, SO, 343, 1872; museums, art galleries,
etc, 81, 400. and libraries, 81, 94S, 600.
John d. Rockefeller ranks first among
the givers with $44, 419, 500 in his list of
benefactions for the year. Mrs. Rus
sell Sage comes second, with $l3, 1913, 100
to her credit, and Andrew Carnegie fol
lows third with $13, Jas, IT'S, although
the last named philanthropist ranks
first in the grand total of gifts, which
have, during course of years, aggre-
gated $l70, 100000.
These gifts have all been made, it will
be observed, in America, and many of
them to most worthy institutions and
causes. No doubt the smaller amounts,
could they be ascertained, would ag-
gregate several additional millions Of
dollars.

8,l25,7l6 RheumatiCs In
United States.
Can All Be Cured By Uric=O.

If rheumatism continues to spread as it has in
the past few years, it would seem as though we
would before long become a nation of cripples
The terrible deStructiyeneSs of this disease is
apparent on every side of us. Almost niue out
of ten of the cripples one meets had their Attic
ton brought on by Rheumatism How many
thousand more there are that are hopeessy bed
rden and whom we never see. Rheumatism
from the very nature OF the disease, can neve
cure itself and if neglected is bound to grow
worse rather than better. If you ever have any
tWinges of Rheumatism, go to the druggist and
get ia bottle of Uric O. the wonderful new Rheu-
matte Specific. 1t will cure you and it is the only
nently and thoroughly. Uric-U cures by its d-
rect action Oh the muscles, blood and kidneys. 1t
seeks out the poisonous Uric and Rheumatic
Acid and drives it from the system and it is only
a treatment of such nature that will ever cure
Rheumatism. Linments and plasters only serve
to drive it from one spot to another. They never
cure Rheumatism, because it is primarily blood
disease, and until the blood is cleared from the
poison a cure cannot take place.
You can test Uric-O free of charge if you wish.
Just cut out this advertisement and send it to the
Smith Drug Co., 239 Smith Bldg, Syracuse, N. Y,
together with your name and the name of your
druggist. They will give you an order on him for
a 75-cent bottle free, which you can test and try
to your own satisfaction.

REPORT OF STEAMBOAT INSPECTORS

The annual report of the inspectors
of steamboats,. which board is composed
of John NJ. Taylor of Cape Elizabeth
and John r. Mcdonald of Addison,
which was filed with the Governor and
Council last week, shows that during
the past year 152 steam vessels were
visited and inspected by the commits
sioners, Is new vessels having been add
ed To the fleet. A larger number of
steamers than in former years have not
been in use owing to their owners, all
of whom are non-resideDts, not having
visited the State, consequently the
steamers were not inspected.
Two new steamers, one nearly CON-
peted, the other partially built, will be
ready for service when navigation opens
for the coming season. One hundred
and fifty-fve masters and pilots and 159
engineers paid licenses and the fees
were turned into the State treasury.
The only casualty during the year oc-
Cured on the night of November 6.
During heavy gale the steamer erich
ardson," on Mooselucmeguntic lake,
parted her lines and was battered on the
stone dam to such an extent that she is
beyond repairing. The commissioners
in closing say:
Frequent complaints are made by
the captains of steamers of the total
disregard of the rules of the road by the
majority of people owning gasoline and
other power boats. Few of them know
the rules of the road, and few of them
carry lights after sunset. A number OF
them carry passengers for hire, and
have no life saving appliances to use in
case of accident

condition generally"

MORE BIG CHERRY TREES.

Times comes to the front with
one that is still larger than any
yet reported. John Brown, not
the John Brown whose soul goes

is over fifty years old and meas

from the ground, 10 feet y in
,ches. During the life Of Mr..
Martin this tree YVES the pride of

And now, in the fourth year
of the second reign OF Theodore,
cometh the tidings from the
town of Bellfountain, in the
goodly county of Benton, of a
cherry tree which doth to a
verify knock the spots off from
the trees heretofore mentioned.
It hath the name Of Royal Ann,
hath grown since 1S4S upon the
land of one J. H. Edwards, thus
having lived full three score
years, nearly the allotted age of
man. It's foliage hath a spread Of
three score and three feet, and
girth, at three feet from the
ground, of eleven feet and one
inch. It hath always produced
of fruit an abundance, and at
divers times hath yielded full
five and twenty measured BUSH
els. Now the chief elders and
tillers of the soil in the kingdom
of Benton have caused proclaim
alton to be made that through
out the length and breadth of
the land there exists not a tree
Of the cherry variety that is
greater than this, the chief liars
among the scribes and pharisees
to the contrary Notwithstanding.

Another Bubble BurSted.

Prof. E. E. Elliott, head of the
Department Of Agriculture in
Washington State College, at
Pullman, has investigated the
so-called "Alaska" wheat, grown
by Abraham Adams, at Julia
eta, Idaho, which was heralded
through the press of the entire
country as discovery which
would revolutionize wheat grow
ing in the United States. The
publication of these articles
caused great excitement among
farmers, many of whom had ar
ranged to buy seed wheat at fab
ulous prices. One farmer wrote
to Prof. Elliott and offered him
So for a single head of the
wheat.
Prof. Elliott is regarded as
one of the best authorities in
the United states on wheat. He
visited the farm where the
wheat is grown, took photo
graphs and made thorough ex-
animation. His report is that
the wheat is a well known vari-
ETY. and of poor quality; that
the whole bombastic story pub
lished is fairy tale with hardly
an atom of truth in it.
