the vote was anxiously awaited.
Party lines were entirely obliterat-
ed. Many Democrats voted for the
interests of the lumbermen, while
equally as many Republicans voted
to reduce the tariff which they had
helped to make.
The defeat of the Tawney amend
ment means that the lumber tariff
will remain as originally drawn in
the Payne bill. If the senate changes
it either way, the duty will be in
creased.

G. A. Parcher Sells the Remedy that
Cured Stomach Trouble of IA Years.
And best of all, G.. A. Parcher guar
antees it to cure you, or money back.
Read this:
81 have been a great sufferer for IA
years; everything I ate gave me heart
burn. I have never been able to get
any thing that would give me any re-
lief until friend of mine insisted on
my taking Mi-o-na. took 50-cent

F. M. Bryant, Newman, Ga,
June 5th.
Mi-o-na is not nostrum; it is the
prescription of a celebrated physician
who is specialist in stomach diseases.
One clever woman calls Mi-o-na the
Sunshine Prescription, because it
changed her from q miserable, ner-
vous dyspeptic into bright, healthy,
happy woman in few weeks.
These little Mi-o-na tablets are
surely wonder workers. They abso-
lutely cure indigestion, whether acute
or chronic.
They stop belching, gas in stomach,
and heaviness, in few minutes. Dis
tress after eating vanishes as If by
magic when one or two little Mi-o-na
tablets are swallowed.

MoRANa-KNowLroN.
One Of the prettiest church weddings
ever witnessed in Ellsworth took place in
the Unitarian church last Wednesday
evening at o'clock. The bride was Ella
Eugenia, daughter Of Charles L. Morang
and wife, and the groom was Charles
Colby, son Of CIerk-of- Courts John r.
Knowlton and wife.
The home-like interior Of the Unitarian
church with the warm tones OF the fur
nishings lent itself beautifully to the we'd
ding decorations. The altar was decorated
with white hydrangeas, yellow marguer-
ties and asters with masses OF green set
ting on the color scheme OF yellow and
white. On each pew down the centre
aisle there were punches OF marguerites,
forming floral aisle through which the
bridal party passed. The church was filed
with relatives and friends.
The groom, with his best man, Robert
r. Drummond, Of Bangor, entered from the
PASTORS room at the left OF the altar, and
waited his bride, who entered by the mid
die aisle, with her father. Lohengrin's
wedding march was played by Mrs. F. L.
Kent.
