.'Ons Touch of Nature Makes the Whole
World KIM

When a rooster finds a big fat
worm he calls all the hens in the
ward to share it. A similar trait of
human nature is to be observed
when man discovers something ex-
ceptionalIy good-he wants all his
friends and neighbors to share the
benefits of his discovery. That is
the touch of nature that makes the
whole world kin. This explains why
people who have been cured by
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy write
letters to the manufacturer for pub
lication, that others similarly ailing
may also use it and obtain relief.
Behind every one of those letters is
a warm hearted wish Of the writer
to be of use to some one else. This
remedy is for sale by H. T. Davis.

 Along the Kennebec," new Eng land comedy, comes to the New Mill ford Opera house on Thursday even- ing, November II, under the auspices of the Odd Fellows. The piece is now Tn its third successful season and has met with popular approval wherever presented, and has been used as a text by two ministers in their ser. mons. The play is full of comedy hits. It is comedy that girl or woman can laugh at and not blush at the same time. The burlesque duel scene in the third act between Zeke Dasher and Bunlick Tubbs is said to be one scream from start to finish and five other comedy characters keep the audience in a happy frame of mind. All special scenery is carried for the production, and it is said to be strictly a scenic production from first act to last.

 In walking through c. l. Leach's grocery and meat market the other day, we were very much impressed by a new machine which he has just received. It is an American slicing machine and seemed to work with more than human accuracy and speed and almost human intelligence. The machine-a very handsome nick eled and enameled affair,-is de- signed for cutting ham, bacon, dried beef, sausage, pork loin, etc., auto matically. It does away with almost all handling of the meat. was most fascinating to stand by and watch
