long lived, others short-lived: yet, if
either pays a good stiff dividend, the
public makes no distinction between the
two and will buy the stock of either. In
this investing, the public has no pro-
lection on the part of the government,
on the part of honest publicity, or on the
part of its own careful education.
In the majority of cases, a mine ought
to pay annually perhaps twenty per cent.
of the investment, to be profitable.
That is to say, the actual value Of any
mine is rarely over five times actual
dividends, paid after expenses of opera
ton. How many mines are capitalized
on any such real basis as that? The
answer lies in our own ignorance, and in
the shrewdness of the men who sell us
mining stocks. Stocks that are the best
dividend payers often sell at ten or
twelve times the face of the annual divi
dends. Let the mine hit brief streak
of bonanza, and the stocks will climb
yet higher. We buy such stocks, or
worse; but even fundamental acquaint-
ance with the theory of mines would
show US that such an investment is
usually bad one. In mortgage we do
not look to the interest to pay us back
our principal; in mine we must look to
dividends to pay US back our principal
and interest also. When the mine is
done, our principal is gone. But how
many mining investors ever thought of
that? And how many, when Offered
ten per cent. guaranteed dividend for
five years OIL their money, ever stop to
reflect that, for instance, could take
your money and put it in a cracker box,
and myself make money by paying it
back to you, ten per cent. year for
nine years and then explaining what had
happened to the cracker box!-E Emerson
Hough in the July Everybody's.

LOW VITALITY
AND DYSPEPSIA
When the Blood Fails 10 Give the
Stomach Strength to Do ks
Work You Must Build Up
the Blood Before a Cure
Can Be Hoped For.

Are you making the mistake of 20 many
sufferers from stomach trouble by using
predigested foods, digestive ferments and
stimulating medicines IN your efforts to
get relief from your trouble? If 80 this
explains why you are still sufferer.
In the beginning the various forms of
stomach trouble are almost without ex-
ception caused directly by general low
ering Of the vitality Of the body, either
because of overwork, indiscretions in liv-
ing or sickness. In any event i'm
poverished blood and weak nerves result
and the loss of appetite, gas on the
stomach, dizziness and other symptoms
which follow are only some of the warn
ing signs that the blood and nerves are
failing to give the stomach sufficient
strength for its work.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are the most
direct cure for stomach trouble because
they are certain blood builder. Pure
blood makes healthy nerves and strength
ems the entire body.
The cure OF Mrs. Philip Mulligan, of
King Ferry, Cayuga Co., N. Y, is con-
vincing proof OF the merit of Dr. Will
iams' Pink Pills in stomach trouble.
She says:
cit gives me great pleasure to tell of
the great benefit 1 have received from
DR.. Williams Pink Pills. About three
years ago had terrible attack of indi-
gestion and for weeks | ate scarcely
any food. So much gas formed on my
stomach that felt as though l was being
smothered. Two or three times week
| would have severe attacks of pain in
my stomach. When these attacks came

THE NEW RATES SUSPENDED.
Especial to the Boston Transcr;r+

WASHINGTON, July IA. Tentative
action was taken today by the Interstate
Commerce Commission with respect to
the operation of recent freight and pas
senger-rate increases by the railroads of
the country. The Commission formally
gives notice of its intention to suspend
all tariffs, naming general and important
rate advances, pending investigation.
The Commission expects to find it neces-
sary to consume the 100 days from the
effective date named in the tariff during
which the rates will be imperative, but
will hasten its work as much as possible.
1t is physically impossible for the Com
mission to make its suspensions definite
at this time. Between 1900 and 1000
tariffs are involved, many of them con-
tanning hundreds Of items. Besides,
should suspensions be ordered, it would
be necessary to notify not only every
railroad company filing the tariff, but
every connecting road in any way
affected by the change of rates. The
Commission expects to do this between
now and Aug. l, but meantime gives in
formal notice of what the railroads may
eXDect

Against The Law of Maine.


Apropos of the continent-wide protest
against the exhibition of the prizefght
moving pictures, if the other States had
a law like that of Maine there would be
no trouble, so far at least as concerns
the public exhibition. Mayor Gaynor Of
New York, it has been reported, deplor-
ed the lack of law to prevent it and his
inability to act without legal warrant.
The mayors of Philadelphia and several
other large cities have not appeared to
be in sympathy with the protestants but
rather inclined to view it with disfavor
as a puritanical movement. But the law
of Maine is clear and positive. 1t pro-
vides:
Whoever publicly exhibits any Photographic
or other reproduc ton of prize fight shall be
punished by fine not exceeding five hundred
ollars.

New York SUM-

Assurance that Edwin C. Burleigh will
resign his seat in the House and become
candidate for United States senator if
the next legislature is not controlled by
the Democrats was offered Sunday by a
prominent politician who visited Rock
land.
Congressman Burleigh, who was re-
nominated a few days ago, has thus far
taken no active part in the contest now
waging between Frederick A. Powers of
Houlton and ex-Gov. William T. Cobb;
his attitude and that of his newspaper,
the kennebec Journal, being that all
efforts should at present be bent toward
keeping the State from gravitating into
the Democratic ranks.
Even if Gov. Fernald should be de-
feated it is pointed out that the Republi-
cans might still control the Legislature.
The advent of Mr.. Burleigh would I'M
questionably subtract from the support
now claimed by both Powers and Cobb.
having greater effect, perhaps, upon the
chances of the latter.

A MAYOR JAILED.
Convicted with Others of Conspiracy to
Bride

SALEM, MASS, July Is. With the con-
viction and sentencing of Mayor William
P. White of Lawrence and several other
residents of that city on conspiracy
charges in the superior court here today,
the political scandals which have stirred
the city of Lawrence for some time past,
reached a sensational stage. Found
guilty of conspiring to secure the con-
frmation by the board of aldermen Of
Mayor Whites appointment of James A.
Hamilton as chief of the Lawrence fire
department and of conspiring later to
secure Hamilton's removal from that
position, the mayor was sentenced to
serve three years in the Essex county
house of correction and to pay fire of
$1,000. Samuel kress was sentenced to
two and a half years Imprisonment,
Mathew Burn to two years and George
D. Smart to year and half. E. Ernest
DUDE, also convicted, was not sentenced,
his case being placed on file because he
had given evidence for the prosecution.
The case has been on trial for about
two weeks. The jury returned its YER
dict after being out for little more than
four hours. Thomas Keegan, also in
dicted in the same case, was found not
guilty.
Mayor White made an impassioned ad-
dress to the court, declaring that he had
been innocent of any wrong intention.
Burns spoke in similar vein, while the
other convicted men made no statement.
Attorney NJ. L. Sullivan, representing
Mayor White, argued for new trial,
but the motion was denied by Judge
Schofield, who then imposed sentence.
Kress, one of the men convicted, has
previously been found guilty of attempt
ed bribery in connection with the same
case, but has not yet been sentenced.
Mayor White, who was elected on a
Reform ticket about two years ago by
the largest majority in the history of the
city and reelected last year, sent the
appointment of Hamilton to the board of
aldermen about year and half ago.
The appointment was quickly confirmed.
Some time afterward, charges were made
against Hamilton and he is now under in
dictment for alleged bribery in securing
confirmation of his appointment. Charges
Of bribery began to come thick and fast
in Lawrence, and at length it was alleged
that Mayor White had turned against his
appointee and was conspiring unlawfully
to secure his removal The trial of kress
on the attempted bribery charge follow
ed, and then the trial ending today, in
which the mayor and his co-defendants
were charged with conspiracy to bride
and conspiracy to GUST Hamilton. 1t is
expected that Hamilton will be placed on
trial in September. He still holds his
position as fire chief.
Whether Mayor White can continue to
hold his office while serving his sentence
has not yet been definitely determined.
The city authorities have found some fine
points Of law involved upon which they
are seeking the advice of counsel.

literary News and Notes.

The August Strand is remarkable for
at least two articles-one descriptive of
the sensational escape of Egor Sazonoff.
the assassin Of Plehve, head of the Rus
sian police, and the other symposium
OF opinions on the interesting question
"Should Women Serve as Soldiers?"
The former article is written by Saxon
Oft himself, while the latter has for cor
trlbutors Lord Roberts, Sir John French,
Sarah Bernhardt and other distinguished
people. Customs at European Courts"
will also be found full of interest. Harry
Furniss, the Punch cartoonist, tells and
illustrates some amusing stories of ar
tistic inaccuracies which are occasionally
perpetrated on the theatrical stage.
The fiction is excellent and includes EIGHT
short stories and two serials. s"The
Murder of the Villa Rose," by A. E. w.
Mason, is concluded and will give place
next month to series of short stories by
A. Conan Doyle Love Stories of Real
Life" will doubtless interest all women
eaders.
Five women head the list of writer's in
the New Idea Woman's Magazine for
August. Helen C. Hambidge has the
best magazine article ever written on
Helen Prick, daughter of the Pittsburg
coke king, under the title Little Miss
Prick. - Material about this heiress is
particularly hard to get, for she is jeal-
ously guarded night and day, so the arti-
Gle is particularly interesting. Honore
Willsie writes most refreshingly for the
summer months on "The Children of the
Mining Camps" Alice Coon Brown tells
of the "Widows' Village" near Indian
apolis, where poor widows are taken
care of and given work without any
guise Of charity. 1t marks new era in
philanthrophy and should be read by all.
To those unsung women of the home
who sacrifice for their husbands and
mothers Haryot Holt Dey pays a charm
ing compliment in The Elder Sister, :"
1t makes one appreciate the lowly ones
of the home. All girls and women will
appreciate can American Girl at Court, I"
by Rebecca A. Insley. Three stories
lend to the charm of the magazine-sto-
rles of love and adventure that make an
afternoon slip by without ones knowing
it. The fashions depict all that is new
for the late summer and early fall. They
are in color and have pleasing tone Of
authority. The whole number is most
excellent one, and just suited for an Au-
gust afternoon.

THE VILLAGE MERCHANT.

Upon the quiet village street,
With slanting stoop and open door,
Whose panes are meager for display,
Through which scarce shines the light of day
Behold the simple country store.
About the door are grouped the things
Most useful for the farmers needs;
Some rakes and hoes, and AK and spade,
Some kegs of nails, on which are laid
box or two of garden seeds.
Long shelves of canned stuffs greet the eye,
Each counter, too. is burdened well;
While fruits and spices, cotfees, teas,
And scores of other things like these
Send forth most inviting smell,
The merchant, now man of years,
Behind the counter spends each day,
Or labors Der some musty book
With slow and scrutinizing look
To keep just account Away.
Began he here when but boy
He looks with pride around his store;
No great commercial venture his,
A simple, honest trade it is
He seeks enough and nothing more.
He neer has been to foreign lands,
Nor yearned his neighbor to excel;
In honest toll he's passed his days
In giving yet not asking praise,
And served his township long and we'll
On Sunday he is found at church.
The same receives his loving care:
A class of trusting boys is his,
And in the midweek services
His voice is heard in song and prayer.
Now who successful more than he,
And who more worthy of name?
No statesman, prophet, bard or sage
In this or any future age
Shall more deserve enduring fame.
Upon the quiet village street
This man has built his monument
No tower of stone, simple store.
An honest life and nothing more
Who would not be like him, content?

What He Has Done For Somerset
County.
Turf. Farm and Home.1


Waldo County is not alone in her ap-
probation of her Congressman. 1omer-
set County appreciates ms vaiuap.e e ser
vices. He has secured the sum OF Szo,-
600 for a post Office site anu Is sure 10
secure enough to put very ATTRACTIVE
building on same in the very near future.
Fairfield is not to be passeu py III tne
near future.
In the matter of worthy and deserved
pensions Somerset veterans nave not
been wholly passed by; we could cite e
several cases to prove this assertion II IL
were necessary, but it IS not; single
case known to but few Will su1nce.
A brave soldier lost his health, as did
his faithful wife at almost the same time.
Unexpected misfortunes that mace nelp
from other sources out OF the question
reduced the available resources TO very
narrow margin. A good nelghbor who
learned of the condition OF the FAMILY
wrote to her son who was employed IN
Washington and told him the story IN
true womanly style. The young man
took the letter to Gov. Burlelgh, remark
ing II don't believe, Governor, that you
want any of your constituents VINO pore
as brave a part in the Rebellion as this
brave man did to go to the poor house. "
The Governor read the letter over care
fully and asked the young man II there
was anv question in his mind as to the
record of the veteran and also as to his
present needs. The caller said that he
would vouch for every word that his
mother had written.
With that assurance Gov. Burleiigh
started for the pension department, let
ter in hand. The next thing the Somer-
set County people knew was the an
nouncement that Comrade So and So had
just received the official announcement
that he had been granted a pension. AL
though not large one it is sufficient to
supply the needs of these good people as
long as they may he spared on this earth.
The best of it is we happen to know
that just such ca es can be cited in prac-
tically every town in the Third District.
