In the Hill Country of Mas
sachusetts.

Going to Boston by boat today is very diff
ferent proposi tion from making the trip fifty
even twenty five years ago. The boats
have doubled in size and in speed and there
are other notable differences. AS to ex-
pense, the writer recalls a time when you
could go free, with meals thrown in-but not
always retain I'd. While the white flyers of
today-the Belfast and Camden-run on their
schedules as regularly as railroad trains, in the
old days there were times when two and even
three days were taken in making the trip to
or from Boston-the up-bound boats LAYING
over at Rockland and putting in at Boothbay
and Portland, sometimes sending their Boston
passengers from the latter port by rail. East
bound, when finding it rough outside. the boats
would make harbor at Gloucester, and once, in
the old Katahdin, Capt. Roix, the writer recalls
laying at anchor in Boston lower harbor for 1S
hours and when underway again butting into
heavy head sea until after passing White
Head. Then the meals were served In the
hold, where there was ventilation, where
there were berths on each side and bar
in the bow, and going down to breakfast in
the morning Iue dtLuoSPHc was HoI SoHuu-
Give to appetite. When the Cambridge came
on meals were served on the saloon deck for
ward and that was the arrangement in the
later boats; but now the dining saloon is on
the main deck aft, is light and airy. with views
of the water and shores from the many win.
dows Then as to lights. In the old boats
most of the staterooms got their light from
the saloon; few had oil lamps that were liza
BILE to smoke if not looked after, and that at
best only made darkness visible Long after
the Fall River line had electric lights in all
the staterooms these conditions prevailed, and
we never met we'll known Searsport sea cap
tain-he went aloft many years ago-that he
did not growl about these "bug lights" as he
called them. How he would have rejoiced in
the well-lighted, nicely appointed staterooms
of today; the pleasant dining saloon, and the
many comforts and conveniences to be found
in the palatial steamers of the Eastern Steam
ship corporation.

 to the financial stringency and the further fact that the estimated busi- .Ioss would not pay suitable per cent upon the investment. Since
 then conditions have changed materi-

HUNTING FOR TROUBLE.

The world is full of people who are bunting for trouble. And they gen erally find it. That a young man who called at the Chandler ostrich farm this week did not find the trOu- ble he was looking for and. people will generally believe. deserved. is due tG the guardian care of Lou Els worth. The oStriches on the farm
 look upon Mir Ellsworth as their
 father by adoption. they obey his or
 ders and have as much affection for
 him as an ostrich is capable of ex-
 pressing. He goes among them fear
 lessly, plucks their plumes and herds them into the various pastures in which they feed. They recognize him as their master and seldom make any objection Co anything he may do \ couple of days since young man called at the farm and was gazing at the big birds. Mir Ellsworth noticed that he was trying to excite the an ger of one of the big fellows. whose temper is not of the best at any time. Ha asked the man what he wanted and the latter replied that he had an ambition to do battle with a full grown ostrich. that he had never found either animal. man or bird Of which he was afraid and would like L. conquer the ostrich Mir Ellsworth
 thinking that the Voungster was "bluffing, opened the gate and let him into the ostrich pen. The young man had stick about three feet long and entered boldly and started to- ward the big bird. The latter. seeing stranger started for him. with feathers at an acute angle. and eyes glowing with anger. Realizing that the boy did not understand the peril he incurred. MT Ellsworth quickly ran between the bird and its adver- sary and rushed the latter out of the pasture When it is understood that a full-grown ostrich can kick harder and faster with one foot than mule can with two. the drubbing the young man escaped can be easily imagined
 lt seems almost too bad that Mir Ellsworth did not allow the ostrich to give the youngstcr just one kick; the lesson might become useful in after life-to the yOungStar

MESA
CALIFORNIA PEOPLE

Many Prospective Settlers Visited the Place Yesterday and Some Land
 Sales Were Made.

The morning train yesterday brought in tWcnty-nine prospective land buyers. and shortly after the ar rival of the bus from the depot tn, Iarty was lined up in the office of the Mesa Improvement Co. Senator Hanna Was busy answering questions. Tine party was taken out to the Chandler lands iu the company's auto mobiles. and it is understood quite a number of tracts of the land changed hands. The building up of the Chand- Ter section adds to the value of the property in the vicinity of Mesa. A tine country settles up surrounding the town. naturally there is a greater trade demand in Mesa. the only available supply point. Naturally. too. the sale or lands contiguous to Mesa increases the value of inside lands.
 The California people. who comprise so large a rIrt 0f the settlers at Chandler. are all expert orange grow CTS. and they are. without exception very epthusies,ic as to the value of Mesa lands for the production of cit rus fruits When the local orange growers complain uf the unusually cold weather this winter the Califor- Lia men laugh and say that such cX- uaordinary conditions are to be eN- Itcted. In Florida and in California there is probably at least one cold season iu five. when special precau- tons are necessary for the protec- uon "f young trees. while in the Mesa section there has never but once before since the settlement Of the valley been a season when the trees We're in any serinus danger nf frost.

It is the duty of every expectant mother to prepare her system for the coming of her little one; to avoid as far as possible the suffering of such occasions, and endeavor to pass through the crisis with her health and strength unimpaired. This she may do through the use of Mothers Friend, a remedy that has been so long in use, and accomplished SO much good, that it is in no sense an experiment, but a preparation which always produces the best results. It is for exernal application and so pen etrating in its nature as to thoroughly lubricate every muscle, nerve and ten don involved during the period before baby comes. It aids nature by ex- banding the skin and tissues, relieves tenderness and soreness, and perfectly prepares the system for natural and safe motherhood. Mothers Friend has been used and endorsed by thou sands of mothers, and its use will
 prove a comfort and benefit to any woman in need of such a remedy.
