Will Be Great Loss.
Bangor COmmercial.)

Maine people- without exception
should learn with regret of the resls
nation of Dr. II. w. Mitchell frc"' we
sunerindency of the Eastern Maine
Insane hospital to accept call 10
more important and lucrative posi-
ton at the head of the great Massa-
chusetts institution at Danvers. In
the three wears that DIR. Mitchell mas
been in charge of the hospital in TINS
citv he has demonstrated his splendlo
worth both as an expert in the treat
ment of the insane and as an admin
istrative officer as well. In our state
institutions, we. too often, have sue
cessful in the business administrator
of affairs. To such DR.. Mitchell has
proynn himself a shining example.
When he went before the legislative
committee to explain the needs or thc
Eastern Maine Insane hospital he ana
not ask for a blanket sum without sui
ficient explanation, nor as some o1teh
do unfortunately. ask for twice as
much money as needed on the suppo-
sition that the request would be cut
i'm halves. He placed before the COM
mittce an itemiZed estimate of every
thing needed with bids for the work
He explained to the committee just
which requests were imperative Tor
the well-being of the patients ana
which, while not Imperative, would
work a saving in the expenses of the
institution. Thus the committee was
in a position tc act intelligently ana
granted practically every request ana
the same were endorsed by the legis-
lature.
The Eastern Maine Insane hospital
loses much in the forthcoming de-
parture of DR. Mitchell and the state
| of Maine loses an official whose ad-
ADMINISTRATION of the institution COM
mitted to his charge has proven a
glowing example to the heads of other
state institutions

The Kidneys and the Skin.

In the spring. the kidneys have much
to do. If they are weak or torpid,
they will not do it well, and the skin
will be pimply or blotchy. That is
telling the story in a few words.
Hoods Sarsaparilla strengthens and
stimulates the kidneys, cures and pre-
vents pimples, blotches and all cuta-
neous eruptions.

August Twilight.

Indianapolis News: Softly, almost
imperceptibly, the summer is drifting
into autumn, the season, with spring,
most blest. The month of August is
stealing from us moments of sunshine,
yet the nights are no longer by hours,
for these are the days of twilight.
This month, of all others in the year,
has the least charm in the eyes OF
some. 1t is maligned for its heat and
humidity, for its dust and for the
frogs that chant O. nights in the creek.
1t is the month of dog days, they say
when city streets are furnaces, and
the year, grown heavy with vegeta-
ton, palpitates for the release that
winter shall bring.
But there is satisfaction in the
passing summer that none can deny.
Now the cannas are breast high at
the porch ratings, the sunfowers by
the barn are saplings and the grass
is ankle deep in day. Those who
love the open have seen the violets
preach his silent sermon on
spring. The columbines, rich In red
and yellow. are faded and August
brings the flash Of goldenrod and the
modest smile of asters. And with
these it brings also the twilight, that
incompatible hour that well may have
come from the fortunate isles them
selves. Then one may sit in the
shadow Of the porch and breathe in
the cooling air that seems to come, no
matter how hot the day. The street
and the yards and the sky itself APP

light The sunset clouds glow, first

Ing, the occasional music and the light
from cornered lamps filtered by green
leaves all bring a sense of quiet and
confidence and satisfaction that no
other hour of the day can bestow.
Even the monotone of the frogs, the
strident rasp of the crickets, and the
call of the katydids are only a part
of the evening.
Then as one mods in ones chair to
the drowsy murmur of voices, the lit
tie world about one invests itself
with the night. The change comes
noiselessly and without the herald of
color that precedes the dawn. It is
twilight: then the dark and the hosts
of stars. Truly in this hour one can
find lesson in contentment.
