Kidney diseases Increase 1877 per
cent in the City OF Chicago in one
generation.
One of the most appalling facts
brought to light by the statistics of
the United States Census bureau, Is
the increase OF kidney and bladder
diseases. In less than one generation
these dreadful ailments have in
creased l6I per cent in the City of
Chicago and in much the same ratio
in other parts of the United States.
These diseases arise almost wholly
from the process of strainlng the

THE BEST SERVICE AT
FAIR RATES

The most valuable tele-
phone service is the service
that makes communication
possible with the greatest
number Of people. That is
the significance Of the term
universal service. The great
Bell System approaches
very nearly this ideal con-
dition. If you have a Bell
Telephone. you are connect
ed with a system that serves
twenty million people. Isn't
that worth whilel
And isn't it some satisfac-
ton to know that the rates
you are paying are only su&-
Gent to cover operating ex-
penses, and pay a fair rate
OF interest on the Investment
No bonds on which to pay

PENoBsCoT BAY BETHEL MISSION.

STOCKTON SPRINGS, May 20, 1912. The sea-
sons work of the Penobscot Bay Bethel Mis-
sion is well begun, and the outlook is for an
extensive work this summer Lumber ship
ping has begun early and good sized fleet is
at the Cape Jellison wharves loading The
vessel are being visited by the superintendent
and the sailors enjoying the Bethel reading
room, literature and comfort bags are being
distributed.
The special work of the Mission this season
will be centered around the Cape Jellison
Bethel. Last year all special effort was in the
interest of the fisherfolk on the islands; that
work being now well in hand it has been
thought best to make all special effort in the
interest of the sailors this season. The general
work on the islands will be carried on as usual
The superintendent has already made trip
to the near by islands, and is to soon make an
extensive trip, one sixty miles down the coast.
This will be chiefly in the interest of the needy
families. Twenty five families were helped
with more or less clothing last winter, and
quite a number will need summer clothing
The stock at the Bethel has been depleted by
the many calls, and if any one wishes to assist
and has second hand clothing they can spare,
they should communicate with Supt. J. L. Cor
son, Stockton Springs.
The Cape Jelison boys are qualifying for
Scouts under the management of Supt. Corson.
A trip in the Bethel launch, the Messenger,
has already been enjoyed by the boys. Many
good times and happy larks are looked for
ward to by those who make good for enroll
ment in this worthy band.
A special Memorial Day service will be held
at the Bethel Sunday evening, May 26th
The public school children will have promi-
nent part in the program. The Sunday SER
vices at the Mission are we'll attended, and the
Sunday school is in fourishing condition.

TROY,

TROY,
DR.. M. 7. Dodge, whose 61st birthday &C.
Cured May 18th, passed away May 1sch. For
years he had suffered from cancerous trouble
which he bore with wonderful patience and
fortitude. Some 80 years ago, or more, 1--WE
have not the exact date), after graduating
from medical school he located in Troy, where
he rapidly acquired large practice, not only
in Troy but in adjoining towns. Although called
to larger places his interest remained in Troy
through life. Until within few months he
had done some office work. He leaves a wife
and one son, also sister in the West. During
the three years of his failing health his faith
full, devoted wife, had constantly cared for him,
sacrificing her own health and strength to at
tend to his every want. All hearts go out in
sympathy to the bereaved, while all feel per-
sonal loss for who outside of ones own family
is SO near as the family physician -. Chester
Braley and family have moved to East Thorn
dixie. Sidney Carter left last week for Penn
sylvania to make his home with his daughter.
P, B. Stone was in Portland Friday and
Saturday. His daughter Addie is receiving
treatment in the Eye and Ear Infirmary there
for her eyes. Mrs. N. E. Danforth was in
Belfast Thursday. Mr.. and Mrs. Tracy have
returned to their home in Stonington.

BIRD TALKS.

There is sudden silencing of the glad
spring songs of the sparrows, thrushes and
warblers. The songs are turned to almost in
audible notes of fear and worried plaintive
chirpings spread over the fields and pastures.
The swallows and martins leave their nests
and circle high in the air. emitting loud and
warning notes, and the observer knows that
something is going wrong in bird world. The
birds have warned each other for a mile or
more. Perhaps you may be in your garden,
and noticing these signs look about to see
what is the cause of the disturbance. Suddenly
your hens and chickens near by begin to get
historical. There is dark shadow passes,
swift as light, and with helpless feeling of
evaporation you see, not more than twenty
feet away, one of your best chickens in the
talons of sharp-shinned hawk, commonly
called the "chcken hawk" You may stand
bewildered, or you may run for your gun and
return to see hawk and chicken disappearing
over the nearest bushes just out of range of
your shot, the chicken making mournful cries
for help-which never comes. This hawk and
its mate probably have nest in some big wood
lot near your home and if you have large
flock of chickens will visit you several times a
day if the chickens not kept in wire cover
ed pens. The marauders very bold and
will take great chances of danger from man
for the taste of tender little broiler.
These sharp-shnned hawks are small being
next in size to the sparrow hawk, which is the
smallest in New England, and which is never
known to attack chickens. Like all birds of
the hawk family the female of the sharp
Skinned hawk is nearly third larger than the
male, this being popularity which is confined
to birds of prey. They have very long tail
feathers, and long slender legs and talons. In
color they are notified Slate and brown on the
back, with breast gray white, streaked with
dark brown. They nest in spruce fir trees,
from thirty to sixty feet from the ground.
Sometimes when you are in close proximity to
their nests the hawks will fly about, uttering
notes of defiance, which aid you in locating
their habitations. The eggs are about the size
of a pigeons egg, white in color,with extremely
rare markings of large brown blotches on the
smaller end.
In the interest of Names poultry men and
her many bird lovers it seems to me that
heavy bounty should be placed upon hawks,
also upon crows and even upon the red squir-
rels which too often have upon their bill of
fare the eggs of the small birds. In my opin-
ion ninety per cent. of the destruction of song
birds is caused by these natural enemies.

In this connection some facts from the
last census returns are Of interest. They
show that the country as whole has in
creased the area devoted to potato cul-
ture LOTT acres, or nearly Is per cent.
and production has increased at a still
more rapid rate, or lis, S76. 1913 bushels,
which is 42.4 per cent. The largest &C.
tual increases were in the two North
Central Divisions, but the percentage
increase was much larger in the Pacific
and Mountain Division States than else
where. Decreases were found in every
New England State except Maine, and
the increase of this State was so great
as to bring the average increase of the
whole New England group up to 29.5 per
cent. Maine actually increased her ac-
reage of potatoes 64,094 acres or 1872
per cent, and her production Is, 743, 089
bushels, or 1911 per cent. The per cen
tage decrease in acreage in the other
New England States varied from S per
cent. in Vermont to 20 per cent in Rhode
Island. New York still leads all the
States in the production of this great
crop with total of 4s, 597, 701 bushels,
valued at $40, 1888, 766.
