More than sixty years ago DR.. j. F. True dis
covered the formula now known as DR.. True's
Elixir. He believed it his duty to bring this
remedy to the attention of the public and used
newspapers in New England with wonderful
results. Dr. True and Sons have never done
much newspaper advertising outside of New
England, but people who have learned of the
remedy have tried it and found its worth, have
spread its fame throughout the civilized world,
until now they have depots in Canada, Cuba,
Hawaii. China and Egypt This remedy is called
Dr. True's Elixir, the famous laxative and
worm expeller. 1t is a wonderful laxative,
gentle but positive in it's effect in general,
and the fact that it is undoubtedly the worlds
best worm expeller 1t is combination of the
most effective vegetable remedies known to
the medical profession and is absolutely free
from habit-producing drugs.
In its home town, Auburn, Me-, it has a
great reputation and has had for 63 years.
These two facts, that it has stood the test of
over 60 years and has stood that test in its
home town, are convincing proof of its ster-
ling worth. There are the market many
untried Worm and Laxative Compounds. We
would say Beware of these, for you take
chances Get something that is known for
it, true worth.
Many family physicians employ DR.. True's
Worm Elixir as a standard remedy. That in
itself vouches for the reliability of this rem
edy.
Mothers can give this standard remedy to
their children without the slightest cause for
fear as to it's good results 1t is sold by deal
ers in almost every locality.

copy of the book. Health and Happiness" or

as the Bible of the past. A college or
university president will go over the
country and preach our best sermons
and there is no reason why some of our
starving pastors might not take posi-
ton as teacher in school of some grade.
If he is not prepared, the way is open to
prepare himself just like the little woman
mentioned above. Thus church and
school might be again united as they
were in the beginning, preaching the
same old gospel in new dress. No one
would think of compulsory union, but
as people become more educated they be-
come more alike.
More culture means more similarity.
Success means united effort. 1t is the
result of centripetal forces working to-
ward one common end. Jealousy is a
centrifugal force in society. II scatters
efforts and forces. One of the best sing
ers in the State once offered to sing one
day free in one of the best churches, but
the offer was declined by the pastor for
fear of arousing the jealousy of his own
choir.
Our President illustrated the fruits of
jealousy very forcibly by reading to the
students the account of Arnold. the pa
triot, leading the American armies to
victory, and then the death bed scene of
Arnold, the traitor, dying in strange
land, despised alike by friend and foe
The scene of life and death is one of the
most pathetic in history. A man brav-
ing every danger, and forcing the enemy
to retreat at every point by his electric
presence, is weak enough at certain
point in his character to sell his coun-
try on account Of the Indignation kindled
by wounded pride. And then we are re
minded that many an Arnold proves a
traitor, not to his country but to himself
He resents wholesome reproof and
hlights his own life. If this Arnold char
acter were done justice before the world,
! it would stand next to Christ himself in
usefulness. The one illustrates the fall
OF human weakness; the other illustrates
the triumph OF human strength

MAIL ORDER CONCERNS VS., LOCAL
DEALERS.

From q recent issue of the Merchants
Trade journal we learn that in Septem-
Der last big mail order concern, which
takes thousands of dollars each year
from Waldo county, was indicted by the
United States Grand Jury for using the
mails for fraud Some of the testimony
which led to this indictment is published.
For example, a sewing machine was
described in the catalogue as follows:
THE cabinet is made throughout of the
very best grade solid oak" and lorna
mented with handsome designed hand
carvings" The buyer testified that the
wood was not oak, but looked like pop
lar; that here were no hand carvings;
that they Cooked as though they had
been made in planning mill and just glued
on" ETC. Extracts advertised as cen
srely free from color except such color
as is naturally expected from the fruits
in their manufacture were found to be
not only artifcially colored, but short in
measure. Raspberry jam advertised as
prepared from ripe fruit and graduated
sugar. ''pure fruit juice, was
found to be short measure and consisted
quite largely of apple pulp with gela-
tine filler. Since the indictment it is said
there has been radical change in the
catalogs of this and other mail order
houses. The Merchants Trade journal
also publishes letter recently forward
ed to it by merchant, which had been
received by one of his customers from a
mail order house in answer to letter
he had written to them in reply to one
asking why they were not receiving Or
ders from him. The following para
graph from the letter of the mail order
house will interest the local dealers:
We know that the time may come
when, except on very small scale, the
middleman will be entirely eliminated
You will naturally ask what will be-
come of the country merchant! In re-
ply to this question, we would say tha'
be would become producer, perhaps, D'
farmer or engaged in some other pusl
ness that would mean that he would give
something co the community instead o.
taking away from it as he now Is.
The statement that the local retail
merchant is giving nothing to the com
munity is wide of the truth. Not only
does the local merchant pay taxes, but
in other ways he contributes largely tt

charitable and other organizations, lool

to him for financial aid, and not in vain.
1t is the local business men whose efforts
and money have established industries
and fostered enterprises on which the
prosperity of city depends. In dull
times they have carried on their books
many whose earnings did not suffice to
feed and clothe their families. In one
case that came to our knowledge, and
not an exceptional one, an account was
carried for a year, and when times i'm
proved the debtor paid his current bills
monthly and what he could spare on the
debt he had incurred. and it was three
years before the account was squared.
Would any mail order concern do this?
Are they not. to paraphrase the words
quoted above, taking away from the
community instead of giving something
to it? They have great advantage over
the local dealer in that they have the
cash in hand before delivering the goods,
which are sent by freight or express at
the expense of the buyer, while the lat
ter carry charges on their books for
month or a year and have to employ
teams or auto trucks to deliver to their
customers. Suppose the local dealers
should all be driven out of business, as
this mail order concern predicts they
will be, and become farmers or take up
other occupations, what would be be the
effect in communities thus compelled to
send to Chicago for everything needed in
the household, for which they must pay
cash in advance? These mail order con-
Germs would not wait until you had sold
your hay, your grain, your apples, ETC.,
and there would be no taxes coming from
business concerns as now, and no business
men to take the lead in every movement
for the public good. Think it over.
