Talks on
Butternilk
NO. 4.

Lactone buttermilk is made
from milk ferment prepared by
the greatest manufacturing phar-
macists in the world. Ii contains
Tactic acid bacilli which work ma
turally in sweet milk with exactly
the same effect as in the home
made kind. The germs have been
isolated and preserved in tablet
form so that the butermilk pro-
due is, scientifically speaking, pre-
cisely the same as the sort that
mother used to churn.
There are, however, several
kinds of Tactic acid germs. Some
are highly beneficial to the diges-
ton, others less so and still 9th
ers that are positively detrimental.
The farm buttermilk contains all
sorts, but Lactone is made only
from the particular bacilli which
has been proven 10 have eNtraorSi-
mary giving properties.
Iactone tastes better than the
homemade kind because it hasn't
that bitter twang that often crept
into the churned product. 1t
beats creamery buttermilk because
il is heavier and more nutritious.
Ii costs five cents n glass and
you'll want more. Only at

Friends Planning
Testimonial for
Sheriff SculIy,

Portland Me, Nov 1.-The many
friends and admirers of the late Sheriff
Sculy have felt ever since his untime-
ly death a desire to testify in some SUBJ
stantial way to their appreciation of
the fact that he died in the service Of
the county and that in that service he
day, conference among some of these
friends resulted in the determination to
make that testimonial in the form of a
contribution for the bereft family. The
following letter, written by one of those
who have taken leading part in cry
stallizing the movement, gives express
sion to the sentiment which is behind it,
Had Lieut.. Com. Scully died while
on duty i'll uniform q naval officer
defending Portland homes against at
tack of foreign military or naval force
some action would have been taken to-
ward memorial to him.
SHERIFF Seully died while on duty de-
Tending Portland homes against attach
from a foreign invader. and the fact
that the attack was from the liquor in
terests, does not diminish the duty WI
owe to the late sheriff.
Had Mr. Scully remained in private
life at his business, he would undoubt
eddy still have been alive He has lost
his life while on duty for the State. The
fact that our laws make no provision
for compensation to his family for the
loss of his services does not Diminish
the obligations of the citizens.
SHERIFF Scully's physical condition
made II impossible for him to provide
for his family by life insurance, MS prac
ticaily all other business men do. Life
insurance was denied him.
Most memorials are in cold stone
with no value save sentiment.
SHOULD We not provide a living me
mortal to. Sheriff Scully by raising q
suitable fund for the comfort of his wife
and young daughter?
Not as a charity, not as necessity
for the family, but as a spontaneous ties
timoniaI of the appreciation of the citi
zens of Cumberland county, SHOWING
gratitude to the memory of a man who
did his duty.
MANY a man wanted to see the Law
enforced, but few were willing to sur
render their private business and assum,
a risk both personal and business, o
becoming sheriff.
1T is our duty. and many will appre
ciate it as a privilege, to contribute t.
a fund. the income from which VIII pro
vide for Sheriff Scully's family as vel
as he himself would have provided finan
cially. Their sacrifice in the loss OF Z
father and husband we cannot replace.
In agreement with the spirit of thi
letter arrangements have been made b,
which Alexander T. Laughlin, Mayo
