otherwise they are crowded out. In watching

A Liberty correspondent of the Bangor Com
mercial saws: "The people of this vicinity are
being stirred by three remarkable events-the
discovery Of the North Pole, by Cook and
Peary, the starting of the corn factory, and
the discovery of fine granite quarry on the
land of J. o. johnson in this village. The
North Pole is of no special value to us but the
corn factory is. for all things considered it
starts under very favorable auspices The
late frosts did not do as much damage to the
crons in the Georges valley and vicinity as
thew did in other localities and the corn is very
well matured and stood the severe drouth
much better than was anticipated few weeks
aoo. The granite quarry is looked upon as
Something Of great value Samples are being
sent to experts and to those in authority

Dear Sir: You are to paint Mr.

tell your private affalrs-no matter
what figure, it's fair price.
What paint'll you use?
We're thinking of one, all paint

take about Is gallons. S75 for paint
and painting.
Another, half paint; it'll take about
30 gallons of that, $3.50 for paint and
painting.
The designations paint, OF course,
will wear u long time; the other is
good while it lasts. Least gallons,
least cost, best JOB.
