The Lincoln centenary service held ct
the Congregational church on Sunday
evening, FEB. IA. was largely attended
and very interesting. Rev. 8. Q. Eaton
presided and opened tho meeting with
Scripture reading, prayer and brief
address on the life and services OF Lin
coin. The principal address was by w.
Is. Robinson and, a. on oil occasions
whore he speaks, 1t was full of thought
tersely expressed and held the close at
tentlon of bis hearers. He also gave an
original poem of fine literary merit and
very appropriate for the occasion. Mrs.
Rachie W. Eastman read In very i'm
pressive manner Lincoln's favorite poem,
10, Why Should the Spirit Of Mortal be
Prouda' Lincolu's Gettysburg address
was given by Richard Palmer. Bishop
simpsons farewell to the Chieftain
Martyr was presented by Mrs. Lila
Palmer in . very effective way as she
stood by the fine, largo crayon sketch OF
Lincoln drawn for the occasion by Pastor
Eaton. Mr.. Eaton, who is quite skillful
With the crayons, also drew sketch OF
the rude log cabin where Lincoln was
born. Arthur Palmer read an essay on
Lincoln, prepared by veteran soldier
In the vicinity. Remarks were also
made by W. Fl. Eastman, appropriate to
the event. Scholars from Hartford Cen
ter, under direction Of their teacher,
Fred Stetson, gave . flag drill. -Four
young ladies in this vicinity also recited
stanzas from poems attached to little
flags held In their hands. The loca!
choirs in the place united and rendered
several national airs in very effective
manner, including the Battle Hymn Of
the Republic" "Star Spangled Banner u
'Tenting on the Old Camp Ground, u
"America," etc. The intense stiffness
that pervaded during the speaking
evinced the deep interest felt. 1t II
worthy of note that on this first public
occasion In town when the name of any
great distinguished man that has made
American history should be thus honor
ed, the name should be that dearest Of
all names to the loyal, patriotic heart
Abraham Lincoln!
We have received from Mr.. and Mrs

Anniversary of washingtou's Birth.

In one of the early meetings held BY
American patriots TO discuss the ques-
ton of separation from England, there
were present John Adams, Benjamin
Rush, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Paine
and George Washington, who was then
described as "A man distinguished from
all others by his height. the noble out
lines Of his form, and the dignity of bis
brow" he was born in Virginia Feb
ed, 1882, and at the age of forty-three
In IT'S was appointed by Congress COM
msnder-in-chief of the American Army.
He was deeply interested in all that per-
tanned to the welfare of our country up
to the time of his death, which occurred
at the age of sixty-seven. As long as
this free government exists he will be
admired and honored.
II is difficult to realize that in 1I76
New England was almost virgin forest,
and that to-day, East, West, North and
South, "the nations industries beat
ceaselessly on the air." A splendid mail
and telephone service brings home and
Offices in actual contact even in the re-
hottest districts; while the newspaper
press informs US all in the current daily
news of the world Mt large, no matter
whether we live in the cities of the sea-
board or the remote interior. Yet the
nation is only in the fourth generation
since Wsshington's time.
All honor TO the fathers of American
liberty! Let the story of their struggles,
trials, disappointments and ultimate
triumph never pass from our memories.
They dared and suffered that we, their
successors, might be free and enjoy
"life, liberty and the pursuit of happi-
ness" within our wide-extended Dor
ders; and BY the application of the peace
full principles of republican simplicity,
and democratic equality, grow as ma
ton in those graces of virtue, industry,
honesty and duty, which are tine lasting
elements in the success OF al. nations, as
we'll as of individuals.
There is hope of higher civilization
taines.. For the public schools and the
printing press are both doing good work
In educating the children Of day who
are to be the American citizens OF the
future.
In the lives of Washington, Jefferson,
Lincoln, and other patriots, we have the
Inspiration to deeds that shall endure,
TO thoughts that elevate. The future
greatness OF this nation depends on the
honor and intelligence Of the growing
generation. Justice should be their
watchword. Oppression of any kind, to
any class or sex, should have no place
In our country.

For Improved 0ptomstry.

A bill 10 now before the State Legisla-
ture to regulate and define tho practice
Of Optometry, and to create board OF
examiners. The bill IL ono Of vast Inn
portance to the public, and Of such bene-
at that there should be no hesitation In
passing it,
It is aimed at the itinerant eye-glass
peddler, who with out knowledge OF the
scientific necessities, pretends to III. the
eye with the necessary glasses, often
working untold injury to this, the most
delicate and sensitive member OF the
human body. As drafted the bill will
require the obtaining of certificate from
an examining board, and In the defini.
ton of "optometry" a. "the employ
ment of mechanical means for testing
and measuring the retroactive and accom-
modative conditions Of the eye, withont
the employment Of drugs or medicine, and
the measuring and grinding of lenses,
the fitting, bending and adjusting Of
spectacles and eyeglasses with lenses for
the betterment Of vision" it keeps away
from the domain of those practicipg
medicines or surgery.
1t Is not designed to stop those now
engaged in business from continuing,
but by the setting of higher standard
of requirement, to encourage them to at
tain 1t and to make those who shall enter
the profession do 80 under stricter and
more safe conditions. BY this means
the future is also cared for.
Scientific progress and the welfare OF
the public demand that regulation OF
Optometry must be had and the legisla-
ture should lose no time in making this
law. Maine is away behind the times
in this respect, practically all of the old
or states having laws along this line.
Yourself or your children may be the
next victims of some quack. Do your
part to encourage the enactment of the
law. The examining board will be sus-
tanned by the fees charged practitioners,
80 that no burden is added to taxpayers.

One Million Dollars for q Good
Stomach.
THIS OFFER SHOULD BE A WARNING TO
EVERY NAN AND WOMAN.

The newspapers and medical journals
recently have had much to say relative
to famous millionsire's offer of mil
lion dollars for new stomach.
This great multi.millionaIre was too
busy to worry about the condition OF his
stomach. He allowed bis dyspepsia to
run from bad to worse until In the end It
became incursble.
His misfortune serves as q warning to
others.
Everyone who suffers with dyspepsia
for few years will give everything he
owns for new stomach.
Dyspepsia is caused by an abnormal
state Of the gastric juices. There Is ono
element missing. The absence of this
destroys the function Of the gastric fluids.
They lose their power to digest food.
We are now able to supply the miss
Ing element-to restore to the gastric
juices their digestive power, and to make
the stomach strong and we'll.
We know that Rexall Dyspepsia Tab
lets will positively and permanently cure
dlsordered stomachs, Indigestion and
dyspepsia.
We want you to try them and will re-
turn your money II you are not more
than satisfied with the result.
Price, % cents, only at our store, or by
mail. =. A. Shurtleff q Co., South
