Five Years
of Heart Trouble Cured By
DR.. Miles Heart Remedy

Before l began taking DR..
Miles Heart Remedy I had been
suffering from heart trouble for
over five years. had pains in
my lett side, and under nv
shoulder blade, could not sleep
on the left side, and was SO short
OF breath the least exertion
would bring on the most distress
ing palpitation. | had scarcely
taken a half bottle OF the Heart
Remedy before | could see a
marked change in my condition.
When ! had taken six bottles
was cured"
MRS. c. c. GORKEY,
Northheld, Va.
If there is futtering or palpi-
tation it is an indication of a
weakness of the nerves and mus
cles of the heart. 1t is not neces-
sarily diseased-just weak from
over-work. The heart may be
weak just the same as the eyes,
stomach or other organs. You
can make a weak heart strong
by taking DR.. Miles Heart Rem
edy. Get a bottle from your
druggist, take it according to di-
rections, and if it does not bene-
fit he will return your money.

FIGHTING TUBERCULOSIS.

The Exhibit at the Lincoln County Fair
At the annual fair of the Lincoln coun-
ty agricultural society in Damariscotta,
October 9Th, the exhibit that attracted
the most attention was the tuberculosis
display shown by Miss Gertrude Carver
of Augusta, under the auspices of the
State Board of Health. This is the first
county fair where this exhibit has been
shown and the interest was surprisingly
great.
Miss Carver displayed antiseptic drink
ing cups and also the sputum cups as
sanctioned by the State Board, while she
also illustrated the dangers Of the great
white plague by means of placards. Many
of the placards showed the dangers Turk
ing in the public drinking cups, while
others took up the danger of oil stoves
in houses, where the oxygen is destroyed
and the air made impure.
For the past 16 years the State Board
has the comparative figures of deaths
from diseases such as scarlet fever,
whooping cough, typhoid fever, apo
plexy, cancer, the grippe, diphtheria,
Group, measles and tuberculosis, showing
that the latter disease caused 20, 4Oe
deaths and outstrips its next nearest
competitor by about to l.
The State Board emphasizes that tuber.
culosis is not hereditary, but every effort
should be made to avoid it's germs ane
that if treatment is taken in its early
stages it can be cured. The exhibits are
to be shown elsewhere and strong efforts
made to reduce the spread of this disease

Hoping For The Best.

Willie's gone away to college, but we're hop
ing for the best;
They will tie knots in his trousers and sew up
his coat and vest;
They will haze him to a FRAGILE, they will
throw him in WE'LL
And they'll proudly ostracise him if he ever
dares to tell.
They will teach him lots of habits we have
warned him he should shun;
They will press him into football and they'll
break his bones for fun;
They'll convince MIN that his studies are of NO
account at ALL
And despise him if he doesn't mix in every
silly brawl.
He will have to learn that prexy is unworthy
of respect,
And become noisy ruffian, to be one of the
elect;
They'll endeavor to persuade him that the
cou rse is all jest;
Willie's gone away to college, but we're hopinl
for the best.

A Bounty on Dogfsh.

WASHINGTON, Oct. Z. Whether the
valuable lobster or the worthless dog6sh
of the waters Of Rhode Island and Mass
achusetts is to be allowed to survive, is
a burning question that is receiving the
careful Consideration of Commissioner
George M. Bowers, of the bureau Of fish
cries. The efforts Of the bureau of fish
cries to propagate the lobster SO that it
may become plentiful and cheap have
been nullified to so great an extent by
the avaricious dogfsh, that Commission
er Bowers is contemplating putting a
price upon the head of the marine nui-
sance SO as to encourage fishermen to de-
vote their efforts to clear the sea of them.

OUR SHORT SUGAR CROP.

Vermont will scarcely sweeten tbs
world with her maple sugar product this
year. Indeed, she will be lucky II there
il enough to more than 20 around the
home board The season has been one
Of the poorest for some years, and the
meagreness Of the sap flow was hardly
worth the effort which the sugar makers
had to put forth to get their orchards
into shape to do the work The short
crop ought to be il part compensated
by the better prices to be secured for
the pure article, since the supply will
not nearly meet The demand, and the
producers viii Be able, therefore, to com
mand an increase in price Under The
conditions Of The market they would be
justified in making an advance, and it
is probable that the price would be ae-
cepted BY the retailer We are not con.
spring with the producers to boost the
cost Of living, but simply refer to the
law Of supply and demand as the basis
for our position The shortage this year
should also clean up the market SO that
