were closed during the day and it was
reported that II feet of back water was
going over the falls at that point.
The power station of the Waterville
& Fairfield Railway situated near the
TicOnic bridge was also a busy place.
A crew was engaged picking up wood
so that it could not become tangled in
the machinery and damage the SER
vice. The men were somewhat sur
prised when they pulled the carcass Of
a deer from the water which probably
weighed about It's pounds. 1t is sup
posed that the animal attempted to
stem the angry current at some point
above and was swept away.
The Ticonic bridge was covered with
sight-seers all the afternoon, some
coming with cameras and others just
to catch a glimpse of the angry foam
ing water No serious damage was re-
ported along the city's waterfront but
it is expected that the river will re-
main at it's present height for several
days as the rain was extremely heavy
upriver and large amount of snow
is yet to melt.
At the Fort Halifax power station
in Wlnslow on the Sebasticook river
conditions were equally as bad. The
large dam was a spectacle and the wa
ter ran high onto the adjoining fields.
The heavy rain caused great trouble
to the L.. A. &. w. Co. as we'll as the
travelling public. People were obliged
to walk to the brickyard to take cars
for down river. as a crew of men was
engaged in digging small amount of
clay which slid down the high en-
bankment to the car tracks. The man.
agement deemed it advisable to take no
chances with the lives Of the public I'M
til all danger is past.

L. T. COOper's theory concerning the
human stomach. is being given more
respect and comment every day
Cooper claims that 20 percent of all
i'll health is due to stomach trouble.
When interviewed about his theory re-
Gently, he said: stomach trouble is
the great curse of the Goth century SO
far as the civilized races are con-
cerned. Practically all of the chronic
i'll health of this generation is caused
by abnormal stomachic conditions. In
earlier days. when the human race was
closer to nature, and men and women
worked all day out of doors. digging
| their frugal existence from the SOIL the
tired droopy, half-sick people that are
now so common, did not exist.
ITO be sure, there was sickness IN
| those days, but it was Of virulent
character, and only temporary. There
| was none of this half-sick condition all
| the time with which so many are
afflicted now-a- days.
| | know positively that every bit OF
this chronic i'll health is caused BY
stomach trouble. The human stomach
in civilized people today is degenerate
| 1t lacks tone and strength. This
weakness has gradually come. through
a sedentary existence. l further know
that few people can be sick with tbs
digestive apparatus in perfect shape
The sole reason for my success is be-
cause my New Discovery medicine
tones the stomach up to required
strength in about six weeks time
That is why l haYe had more people
come and thank me wherever l have
gone to introduce my medicine, than
have had time to talk with

SHOWING THE PROPER SPIRIT.

There has been considerable local
agitation about street lines and prop
erty lines and the proper location for
certain pavements to be laid and in
order to correct the errors of many
people during many years that have
passed, It becomes necessary for some
body to make sacrifices for the bene-
fit Of the town.
1t ID only natural and right that
each man should wish to preserve the
beauty and symmetry of the grounds
he has laid out, to preserve the trees
ne has raised or come into possession
Of that are useful and ornamental,
and to feel that pride in his home that
impels him to insist on having his
own rights respected; but when he
thinks the matter all over and con-
siders the duty he owes to his COM
munity and the town and makes a
personal sacrifice for their benefit,
he shows himself to be the real pat
riot, the real self-governing kind that
President Roosevelt has said SO much
about when he talks of the RESPONSE
bility Of the individual unit in citi-
zenship.
A citizen Of the proper type lives
to some extent lin the hearts Of his
countrymen," and few trees sacri-
ficed or lawn cut in bad shape, il
done for public good, gives him
greater place in the hearts of other
men, and where the city council
marks a fence or tree for removal
for public good, and the owner re-
spends to the unpleasant call, he is
erecting the best of monuments to
himself.
Let the people of the town be con,
siderate in these matters, and not lose
sight Of the things of greatest value
the things that build for good lives
as well as good town.
In the broader sense, no man can
afford to cultivate in his own bosom
the determination to stand on techni-
cal points to protect his own rights
simply for the sake of such recogni-
tion and to the detriment of others
In doing so he would bar himself
from the enjoyment of the very things
he seeks to secure.
