to Miss Rebecca Kerr after the de

they had lost their jobs, would ulti

helping hand to their fellow women.

only means Of rousing the government
was to attack private property, ssgd
this the militant suffragettes intended
to continue to do until they had OBJ

that her husbands tea pavilion il

scot.
BANGOR, Me-, April 10. A contract was
closed today between the Bangor Retail Mer-
chants Association and Castine Steamboat
Company by which the company will establish
a year-round steamboat line between Bucks
port and Castine, West Penobscot and West
Brooksvllie, running two round trips day,
connecting with the trains over the Bucksport
Branch to and from Bangor. The association
pays the steamboat company subsidy of 1925
year to operate the boat, which is expected
to bring the down river territory into direct
trade relations with the city. 1t is also ex-
pected that the boat will secure United States
place of the line formerly making one trip a
day during the Summer from Bangor.
Last year, under contract with the Bangor
Retail Merchants association, the steamer
Castine, Capt. Coombs, covered this route
from Brooksvile to Bangor. making one round
trip daily, and while negotiations were pend
ing resumed the route April 7th. This new
deal puts her off the route, and while we
know nothing of the intentions of her owners,
the Coombs brothers, she may return to this
busness-and would be welcomed. The Cor.
lima is steam er of As tons, Ga feet long, and
was built at Portland in 1899. She was brought
to Castine a few years ago as an excursion
boat, but did not find it profitable and has
been laid up there for some time.

thoughts are embodied in the following poem
Thy neighbour! 1t is he whom thou
Hast power to aid and bless,
Whose aching heart or burning brow
Thy soothing hand may press.
Thy neighbour IT'S the fainting poor,
Whose eye with want is dim:
Whom hunger sends from door to door.
Go thou and succor him.
Thy neighbor! Yonder toiing slave
Fettered in thought and limb.
Whose hopes are all beyond the grave,
Go thou and ransom him, =
Oh, pass not, pass not needless by
Perhaps thou canst redeem
The breaking heart from misery
Go 81 are thy lot with him.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is infamed
you have rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is
the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to it's normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever
nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh
which is nothing but an infamed condition OF
the mucous surfaces.

Mann" was to be removed and another
appointed in his place. Then the "boys"
got busy, and as result Charley Mann
held the position until removed by death;
and we are sure there were many sin
cere mourners among those he had
served so long and so faithfully.
There are some people who profess to
believe that place can only be prosper
GUS and "busy" with saloon on each
corner and one in the middle of each
block; and that hotel cannot be made
to pay without an open bar. There is no
question but that the saloons would keep
the officers and courts busy, and that
the saloon keepers would get consider
able percentage of the money that would
otherwise go to dealers in the necessaries
of life and to clothe and feed women and
children. AS to hotels the most profit
able public house in this State is run on

In an article on 1.-THE San Joaquin" in

the town of Landry" -Four thousand cases
of citrus fruits were shipped out of San
Joaquin's orange ribbon year ago, an
electric road was built into the grounds,
prohibition won out and land values rose,
thanks to the benefcent influence of the
pump" The pistol and the saloon were
much in evidence in California towns Is
years ago; but the saloon has been elimi-
mated and many of the towns have
doubled their population in the last de-
cade. The Sunset Magazine says: with
this rapid growth in population and
wealth came a rapid change in the
character of the communities. Scores
of them invited the saloons to take
French leave, urged the good road, the
church and the school to flourish, voted
public improvement bonds without re-
gard for the outraged purses of the
cattle baron or wheat princeling."
