COUGH SYRUP
In Memory of Hon. George NJ. Warren.

The Hancock County Bar Association
held memorial exercises at the court
house in Ellsworth October 18th in men,
DRY of Hon. George M. Warren of Cas-
tine. The older members of the associa-
ton were present, and number of the
young a torneys who knew Mr.. Warren
but slightly, but admired his numerous
good qualities. The presiding Justices
desk was adorned with palms and two
vases of cut flowers sent by friends of
the Warren family. Associate Justice
King, presided, and Hon. E. P. Spoford,
Deer Isle, Hon. John A. Peters, Ellis
worth, and Hon. o. F. Fellows, Bangor,
were committee on resolutions.
Mr.. Spofford was the first speaker,
and from his intimate acquaintance with
and friendship for Mr.. Warren, gave an
account of his life, which appealed to the
association, and friends present.
''The name Of Brother Warren was
more associated with the older attorneys
of the bar" said Hon. John A. Peters.
''Mr. Drinkwater and George S. Peters
and others who have passed away. In
some respects he was inclined to the old
members, the old ways, methods of pro-
cedure and traditions of the associa-
ton"
o. +. Fellows was unable to be pres
ent and his son Raymond gave his adj
dress. He said, in part, that Mr.. Warren
was one Of his oldest and dearest friends.
That he derived much pleasure from as
sociating with young men. That his re-
ligion was his home and family. That he
loved a good story and was a pleasing
companion.
Hon. John B. Redman, after intro
ductory remarks, said: 81 have no
words fitting to express my esteem for
George M. Warren. | loved him dearly
There is only one other active member
of this bar beside myself at the present

No woman should submit to a surgi-
cal operation, which may mean death,
until she has given Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, made exclusive
ly from roots and herbs, a fair trial.
This famous medicine for women
has for thirty years proved to be the
most valuable tonic and remover of
the female organism. Women resid-
ing in almost every city and town in
the United States bear willing testi-
mony to the wonderful virtue of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
It cures female ills, and creates radi-
ant, buoyant female health. If you
are ill, for your own sake as well as
those you love, give it trial.

invites all sick women to write
her for advice. Her advice is free,

GOING TO SEE CHICAGO.
Western Tour of Boston Chamber of Com
merce.

Boston's business men are to invade
Chicago. Under the auspices of the trade
extension committee of the Boston Cham
Der of Commerce, large number of men,
bers of that organization will leave Bos-
ton, probably in two special trains, on
Thursday, November II, returning to
Boston the following Sunday. The trip
is continuance of the policy Of the
trade extension committee of the Cham
Der to acquaint the members of that
body with trade conditions outside of
Boston, and the idea has been taken up
so heartily by the members that it is ex-
pected that the special train which will
convey the party to Chicago will be run
in two sections.
When the Chamber of Commerce made
its first tour, visiting the cities of Maine,
the idea was productive of such good re-
suits that new plan was suggested
that of series Of trips to become ac-
quainted with the business conditions in
metropolitan centres. The trip to Chica-
go, therefore, is the first of its kind, and
will be followed by others of similar
character. Another New England trip
is being planned, which will include a
swing around the circle, taking in Provi-
dence, New Haven, Hartford, SPRING
field and Worcester, in order that the
Boston business men may meet the bust
ness men of those cities. This, how
ever will not be taken until some time
after the Chicago trip.
The purpose of the Chicago trip is
similar to that of the Boston business
men to Maine. No effort will be made
to do business on this trip, but simply to
observe the conditions of doing business
in Chicago. Among those who will 20
on the tour are many Boston business
men who have never been in Chicago, and
the trip is expected to be something of
an eye-opener to them. Even many of
the business men who have been in Chi
cago, have never had an opportunity to
see the city, being naturally engaged on
some particular business, and returning
to Boston as soon as this was attended
to. This trip will give an unusual oppor-
tunity to all to see the city. The party
will travel in specials made up of Pull
man cars and dining cars, going directly
through to Chicago without attempting
to stop at any of the cities en- route, and
living on the train, both while travelling
and when in Chicago. The transporta-
ton arrangements are not yet completed,
but will be made some time this week.
Just what will be done in Chicago is not
yet settled. There will be a meeting
with the Chicago business men, and the
Westerners have assured the Bostonians
Of hearty welcome. A committee is
now arranging the details Of entertain
ment, but it is desired that this shall not
be such that the Boston men will not
have some time left to look about the
city for themselves. There will be tours
probably to the stock yards, the rail-
road terminals and the water front, and
probably, also, an automobile trip
through the business district. Boston
