When the druggists of Skowhegan
and nearby towns were recently visit
ed by representatives of the English

ton were explained.

certainly a distinctive compliment to
the treatment to have most all these
druggists undertake its sale and give
it recommendation. -

TAXED Himself 10 sleen.

The historic feat of the late duke Of
Devonshire in yawning, to the delight
OF Disraeh. in the middle of his own
maiden speech in the commons, is
generally reckoned unique of it's kind.
But it is positively obliterated by. an
incident that was described lately by
Sir Guy Fleetwood Wilson, who has
just retired from the Office of finance
member of the council of India.
The wiserOy,s legislative council,
four years ago, when Sir Guy Wilson
began work in India, was body of
only twenty-one members, and he re
membered well the day on which he
was required to answer the criticisms
on his first budget.
He said.
TT was on March 20, 1909, and the
day was abnormally hot and close,
even for that time of year in Cal
cutta. Partly owing to the heat, but
largely no doubt owing to the weari-
some effect of my first attempt at or
atory, one by one every single mem
Der present went to sleep; and it is
the simple truth that after d while
] actually fell asleep in the course OF
the delivery of my statement"

Grievances Of Wives.

1t is not only the suffragettes that
have grievances. Married women now
are filling the London press with walls
that their better halves have no time
for love-making.
The chief mDurners are Lady Cow
dray, whose husband, Lord Cowdray,
is the head of one of the greatest con-
tracing firms in the world, and Lady
Alexander, who is married to the actor
manager, Sir George Alexander.
Lady Cowdray admits the affection
of capable business man is of truer
worth than that Of the lovelike hus-
band who l@afs about the house all day
and requires more attention than six
children Lady Alexander on the other
hand, claims that the business mans
quality as a lover is in inverse ratio
to the magnitude of his business
Others are beginning to air their
views. One says she now curses the
day which turned her husband from a
business man with comfortable sal
AIRY into great financier with a huge
income"

CALIFORNIA CAT A WONDER
Fleet Pussy Ran Down Jackrabblt and
Brought Ito Carcass Home az
Evidence Of Fact.

In western Colusa county, Cali
tornia, on the Jones ranch, is cat
called Baby, which, according to
Frank M Woodson, humane officer.
surpasses all the cats he has killed
and the multitude of others he has
seen and heard Of.
This cat, because of the admiration
shown by Woodson, added another
record to his long list while the hunt
er visited his master. WOodson had
been out hunting rabbits and came
In with q goodly bag. Baby was not
to be outdone by the visitor and went
on hunting trip ali alone.
Woodson gives Baby description as
follows: Height. 1414 inches; length
Of front leg from toes to elbow joints,
seven inches; length from tip of nose
to tip Of tail, 1874 inches. Outside of
this Baby is simply a, cat with a
beautiful disposition and mezzo-so-
prano voice.
To chase a feet jackrabbit and
keep it In sight is some feat. But
Woodson's feline friend did not stop
at mere pursuit. He kept at its fly
ing hind legs Tor three miles, caught
and killed it, For absolute proof
Baby carried his prey clear back
home, over six-foot fence, and left 1t
on the back porch.

"Cincinnatus Heine'' was the name
that the parents OF Joaquin Miller be-
slowed on him at his christening. How
the poet came to adopt the name

sally known, Is told by Mr.. Charles
Phillips. editor of the San Francisco
Monitor Miss Ina Coolbrith, of whom
he speaks, is the California poetess
who has been called the "Sappho OF
the West"
In 1870, when he came down from
Oregon, and published his first little
book Of poems, entitled joaquin ct
al" he told Miss Coolbrith Of his deter
mination to go to London and win
fame.
How in the world = she asked him,
do you expect to climb Parnassus
with such a name as you have? Miller
is bad enough, but Cincinnatus Heine
is impossible,"
But what can do?. Miller asked
ITS my name, isn't it,"
why don't you take some name that
win identity you with California? p
Miss Cpolbrith rejoined. Take the
name OF your FIRST book; call yourstli
Joaquin"

And from that day he signed himself
