Hood, arrived in Lowell from his home
in Chelsea, Vermont, to make his own
way in the world. His early training had
been in his fathers drug store in coun-
try town, and in few days he was learn
ing more about the business in Lowell
pharmacy. After five years here he was
for five years in Metcalf's drug store in
Boston, then returned to Lowell to go
into business for himself. Always a
thorough. painstaking pharmacist. he
soon turned his attention to proprietary
medicines, and produced several that
have made his name known around the
world. The celebration today was ar
ranged entirely without Mr.. Hoods
knowledge. He was presented a beau
tiful silver loving cup and an address
signed by all his employees, expressing
appreciation of his kindly treatment, his
excellent leadership, and their best
wishes for his future. The whole affair
testified to the high esteem in which Mr..
Hood is held by those who know him best.

Headaches and Their Treatment.

In treating a headache, there is one
safe rule to follow:-Never use any
medicine containing acetanilid or similar
coal-tar derivatives without the advice
Of your physician. They may give
temporary relief, but they almost never
reach the cause of the trouble and are
likely to weaken the heart. The most
common form Of headache, frequently
called sick headache, arising from q
disordered stomach, may be avoided
by care in the choice of food. shun
pastry, candy and rich food, take time
to eat, chew your food thoroughly and
keep your bowels in good condition by
using one-half to one teaspoonful Of
L. F. Atwood's Medicine after each
meal. This old reliable remedy has
been a perfect blessing to thousands
for sixty years. Get bottle today,
and prove it for yourself. ANY dealer

PICK BIRD GUARDS.
Brave Band of Wardens Will Watch Poach-
ers. Water Birds and Heron Need Help.
Breeding Grounds Beset.

Breeding Grounds Beset.
NEW YORK, May %. To guard the
lives and homes of millions Of water
birds about the whole continent, force
of some sixty wardens is being organized
at the headquarters of the National As
sociation of Audubon Societies in this
city. Over the wild areas of many of
the ffty-two National bird reservations
that stretch along the Pacific and Allan
tic coasts, the Gulf of Mexico and the
big inland lakes these men are soon to
take up their lonely patrol to protect
and care for their feathered charges.
Recent reports from these reserves, and
other bird colonies that the Audubon
workers have secured to ward off the
threatened extinction of various species
of water birds, show that this year
special vigilance will be required to de-
fend the focks that nest there from
wholesale destruction at the hands OF
professional poachers.
Far into the cypress swamps Of Florl-
da, Louisiana and the Carolinas, where
few colonies of white heron still survive,
the slaughter for the millinery market
that has already driven them from the
upper regions of this country, it is
planned this year to send an auxiliary
force of wardens. Although State laws
forbid the killing of these most beauti-
full of birds, word has been received at
Audubon headquarters that organized
gangs are seeking them out at their
breeding grounds and butchering hun
dreds of mother birds for their aigrette
plumes, while the young are left to
st arve. Special funds are being raised
to provide additional wardens to stand
guard over these remaining heron colo
MES.
While the Audubon wardens may be
called upon to cover one new National
reservation at Clear Lake in northern
California, special arrangements are be-
ing made for guarding Bird Island on
Orange Lake, Flori "a, which has just
been bought as bird sanctuary by the
Mary butcher Memorial Fund. A great
colony Of ibis and herons is known to be
nesting on this island refuge, where it is
reported that hundreds of white herons
have heretofore been butchered by poach-
ers to secure the aigrettes for the mil
linery market. Though two wardens in
Florida have already been shot to death,
a volunteer has just offered his services
for this post of duty.
personal bravery and knowledge of
the habits of the birds are the requisites
in our selection of our wardens,' said T.
Gilbert Pearson, secretary of the Nation
al Association of Audubon Societies at
it's headquarters 1874, Broadway. "This
year there will fall upon the shoulders of
these men the greatest burden that has
ever been imposed, on account of the
high prices prevailing in the feather
market We hope to be able to protect
the mother heron as we'll as other water
birds, though we are obliged to raise
special funds for this purpose. -

provide a confessional. What he meant,
As he subsequently explained to repor-

that the members would be free to 60 to
him and confess their troubles and receive
advice" Curious! Aren't they now?
Haven't they always been?-Harper's

The Farmers and the Drouth.

The long dry period is causing farmers but
little loss," said Commissioner Buckley of the
department of agriculture last week. at is
true that rain is needed in the near future,
but the long period of pleasant weather has
enabled the farmers to do all their blowing and
planting without in, eruption. Many of them
have their planting nearly finished and rain
will now be welcome, particularly as the sup
ply in the wells is getting low"
