THE CRITIC.
l know a man who thinks it wise
To go about and criticise:

l know man who thinks it wise
To go about and criticise;
If Jones is putting up fence
He'll view the work and then commence
To tell the neighbors, far and near,
That Jones is way beyond his sphere.
He couldn't pound sand with club,
At building fences he's dub,
That thing he's building is fright,
He hasn't done the first thing right:
It's just as crooked as can be,
AS any 10 year-old can see,
And SO he CABS upon his way
While Jones puts up his fence by day.
If Brown starts in to paint shed,
And colors it splendid red,
This fellow goes about the town
Declaring he should paint it brown.
If Green puts up a window screen,
He then begins to scoff at Green,
And criticise the way he tries
To build barrier for flies.
He cares not that his patient wife
With flies must wage constant strife,
And has to swat, both day and night;
And high and low and left and right.
And here and there. and near and far,
Because unscreened his windows are.
If Smith is shingling hi own roof,
This wise old critic stands aloof,
And VOWS it almost makes him sob
To gaze at such bungling job;
In all his life he's ne'er met with
So poor carpenter as Smith.
If he were shingling that old shack
He'd do it right or break his back.
Instead of SO, he'd place them thus,
And wouldn't make SO great fuss
As Smith is making, and 'twould be
A Job for any man to see.
But while he talks, his wife complains
That their roofs leaks, whene'er it rains.

DON 7 WORRY ABOUT
YOUR HEART
Pains in That Region Scarcely
Ever Mean Heart Disease bot
Are Generally Caused by
INDIGESTION.

Most people who have heart disease
Go not know it. Most people who
think they have heart disease, haven't.
They only think so. Pain in the region
of the heart is mistakenly supposed to
be symptom OF heart Ctsease.
Just as pain in the back seldom or
never indicates kidney trouble, SO pain
near the heart is scarcely ever present
nearly always from the stomach which
is connected with tie heart by many
nerves.
When your digestion is out of order
it often affects the hesrtand even causes
an irregularity in its beat. The gas
produced by undigested and ferment-
ing food may cause pressure that affects
the heart urpleasantly. But these
pains do not mean that you have heart
disease nor need fear sudden death.
Try toning up the stomach and learn
how quickly and surely you lose the
fear of heart disease.
Tone up the stomach. Correct any
errors of diet. Eat the right things
and not too much of them. If you dc
not know what tie right things are,
send for our diet book. 1t is free.
Don't starve yourself and don t pamper
your stomach with preG;Gested food and
artificial aids to digcst;cn Tone up
your stomach SO that it will do its own
proper work, don't worry about your
heart or anything else (worry causes
and aggravates indigestion) and you
will be well and happy.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are the best
digestive tonic. Improvement begins
with the first dose. First you notice
an increase in your appetite. Then
you see that the food does not distress
you, that you are no longer troubled
with gas, sour risings in the throat and
those misleading pains around the heart.
Strength and energy return and the
rich red blood, bearing the full amount
of nourishment yielded by food, car
ries renewed vitality to every organ of
the body.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills.are sold by
all druggists, or direct by mail, post
paid, SO cents rer box; six boxes, s.. so.
For the diet book which shows what
these pills have done in numerous cases,

SHORTAGE OF GOOD FRUIT.
Fewer No. l Apples in Maine Than Last
Year,

Year.
State Horticultural Albert K. Gard
ner, who recently completed an extended
trip through the State, during which he
gave many demonstrations of apple
packing and visited many different Or
chards, finds that the Maine crop of No.
/ apples is not as large as it was last
year. He says:
''This unfortunate condition is due in
part to the ineXperience of the farmers
in spraying and in part to the very I'M
favorable season. Had more care been
used in spraying the handicap Of the
unfavorable season might have been
largely overcome. | estimate that there
is not more than 30 per cent. fancy fruit
in the entire crop.
''The Maine law governing the low
grade fruit permitted to each barrel or
box, fixes the limit of ten per cent.
That is too much, and it hurts. Because
of it the fruit going out of Maine to the
big markets will be graded lower than
ever before since we had any law at all.
This might be overcome by strict grad
ing, but the farmers won't practice
strict grading yet.
f'The tendency to put wormy fruit
into No. l apples has been on the in
crease since the ten per cent rule be-
came law. That could be overcome if
the Department of Agriculture had the
funds to enforce the law as it is, but the
ten per cent. limit is so large that no
one pays any attention to it,
"The first thing we need to insure a
more stable condition of our apple mark
ct is the passage of laws that can be en-
forced, demanding Statewide spraying
and more strict enforcement of grad.
ing. Until such laws are passed the de-
velopment is bound to be slow even
though larger per cent of the growers
spray each year. 1t is up to the men
who are now doing first class work to
agitate the enactment of first class
laws"

A LOG ON THE TRACK

of the fast express means serious trouble
ahead if not removed, so does loss of appetite
1t means lack of vitality, loss of strength and
nerve weakness. If appetite fails, take Elec-
trio Bitters quickly to overcome the cause by
toning up the stomach and curing the ndiges-
ton. Michael Hessheimer of Lincoln, Neb.,
had been sick over three years, but six bottles
of Electric Bitters put him right on his feet
again. They have helped thousands. They
give pure blood, strong nerves, good digestion.

The Hartford's Last Voyage.

WASHINGTON, Oct. "a. The old wood
en- frigate Hartford, flagship of Admiral
Farragut at Mobile bay, left Annapolis
today for Charleston to become station
ship at the yard there. She has been
used for the instruction of the midship-
men in practical seamanship. This may
be the last voyage of the Hartford as it
is expected she will be dismantled and
rooted when she reaches Charleston.

Maine apple growers will be interested
to know that after next July standard
barrel of apples must be 26 inches be-
tween the heads, Ga inches in circumfer-
ence, and outside measures around the
middle and the heads must be II l-8
inches in diameter. If the apples in
barrel of these dimensions are hand pick
ed and free from blemish, the package
may be marked "Standard," but a fine
of 81 and costs will be imposed for every
barrel marked that does not conform
with the requirements. These laws
regulating the marketing of apples were
recently adopted by Congress, and will
consequently apply in all States.
