Can Charitable
Institution Sue?

Portland, Me-, March 12.--An unusu-
al legal point has been presented to
Judge Connolly of the superior court
for decision 1t is whether or not a
charitable institution Incorporated for
the purpose of treating patients may
recover by suit for services rendered.
1t is the case of the Maine Eye & Ear
Infirmary VS. William Kromberg OF
Portland. The sum of s99 is asked
because of treatment and nursing pro-
yided the defendant in 1907.
Jacob H. Berman, counsel for the
defendant, Thursday filed a plea in
abatement contending that the Intirm-
ary had no right to sue under the par
ticular writ brought or under the act
OF incorporation, which provides that
it is a charitable institution and has
no right to sue for services rendered.
Mr.. Berman cited authorities to
prove his contention. The case has
been taken under advisement by the
court and the decision when given will
be awaited with interest in all parts
of the State.

Washington, March 12.-Before the
House marine committee today in
discussion of the La Toilette seaman's
bill, w. II. Crowley, representing the
Boston Marine Society, an organiZa-
tion of former sea captains, declared
most of the sailors of today got better
food than most of you in this room
generally get on your own tables
Supervising Inspector General Uhler
of the United States Steamboat IN
spection Service denied charges that
the steamboat inspectors were inclined
to favor the vessel owners in their Of
fetal work. He said the regulations for
lifeboats on the Great Lakes vessels
were adequate to protect passengers
and crew. William j. Hunton Cleve-
land, veteran Great Lakes skipper,
opposing the seamen's bill, declared
that the sailor had dropped from
hardy life with tackle, oilskins and sea
boots to mere creature wearing thin
socks, low tan shoes and straw hat.
He scornfully told the committee
that the sailors of today actually had
to be provided with ladders when they
paint ships. He said the reason his
people did not drill their boat crews
during the stormy weather was that
they did not want to lose men and
be prosecuted for it.

If Meals Hit Back
and Stomach SOnrs
"Pape's Diapepsin" ends Indigestion,
Gas, Dyspepsia and Stomach Mis-
cry in five minutes.

If what you just ate is souring on
your stomach or lies like a lump or
lead, refusing to digest, or you beleh
gas and eructate sour, undigesteu
food, or have feeling of dizziness
heartburn, fullness, nausea, bad taste
in mouth and stomach headache, you
can get pleased relief in five minutes.
ASK your pharmacist to show you
the formula, plainly printed on these
fifty-cent cases of Pape's Diapepsin,
then you will understand why dys-
peptic troubles of all kinds must go,
, and why they relieve sour. out or
der stomachs or indigestion IN hVe
minutes. "Pape's Diapepsin" is harm
less; tastes like candy, though each
dose will digest and prepare for as
similation into the blood all the food
you eat besides, it makes you go to
the table with a healthy appetite; but,
what will please you most, Is that you
will feel that your stomach and intes-
tines are clean and fresh, and you VIII
not need to resort to laxatiyes or liver
pills for biliousness or constipation.
This city will have many "Pape's
!. Diapepsin" cranks, as some people will
call them, but you will be enthusiastic
about this splendid stomach prepara-
. tion, too, if you ever take it for indt-
gestion, gases. heartburn, sourness,
dyspepsia, or any stomach misery.
. Get some now, this minute, and rid
yourself of stomach trouble and indi-
gestion in five minutes.-AdV.

A Lecture on "What Life Means
To Me" by Mrs. Gertrude Hunt

she said, ARE harnessed up to steam
and electricity and are dwarfeds in
body, developing diseased and warped
minds" This is absolutely unnecessary
as there is no legitimate excuse for
putting the immature child at labor.
In order to make the rescuing sweep
that is surely, irresistably coming, the
nation needs Maine as she needs the
other states.
Poverty is another mar to life and
by poverty she stated that she meant
where the recompense for labor was
not enough to maintain efficiency.
Suchp overly is a crime because it is
unnecessary, but not the crime OF the
individual. In rs of the great industries
Of the nation, where women are en-
ployed the woman is paid but one-half
what the man receives for the same
work, and but 10 per cent. of the
women toilers receive enough to main
tain efficiency.
Her description of the mining dis
tricts of Pennsylvania held her audi
tors aghast In a great steel manufac-
tory there are 2900 females employed,
taking the places of men and the low
est wage of any man thus displaced
was Is cents per hour, while the aV-
erage wage of the women and girls
was cents per hour. The remedy is
to liberate the child toller and raise
the efficiency and this is the problem
that challenges us today. This country
has been called Goods experiment in
brotherhood' and we should extend
our religious and moral ideas to the
whole family.
Another plague to be removed Is

with one fell sweep. A nations safe

Sage Tea Darkens

Don't stay gray! Here's simple
recipe that anybody can apply with

beautifully dark. glossy and abundant.
Whenever her hair fell out or took on
that dull, faded or streaked appear
ance, this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out of date. Nowadays, by asking at
J any drug store for a so cent bottle of
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy" you will get this famous old
recipe which can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to the
. hair and is splendid for dandruff. dry,
feverish, itchy scalp and falling hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
: says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it has
been applied. You simply dampen
: sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair taking one
strand at o time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears, and after anoth-
er application or two, 1t becomes
beautifully dark, glossy, soft and

Those who attended the lecture given
Thursday evening at the Universalist
church certainly enjoyed an intellec-
tual treat Mrs. Gertrude Hunt Fuller
has the magnificent delivery of a cru
sader, bringing tears to the eyes of
her listeners with pathos; laughter
with her apt satire. A more gifted ora
tor has never spoken from the rostrum
in this city. That the dreams of great
and noble minds of all ages are COM
ing true could not be doubted by all
who heard the speaker of the eve
ming. Her brilliant mind and well mod
ulated voice is certainly a combination
that is seldom excelled in a public
speaker.
The subject of her lecture was
What Life Means to Me" She said
that life consists of various degrees
of consciousness. 1t begins with the
young child whose consciousness in
cludes at first only the members of
the family circle, gradually enlarging
to the thought of a universal relation
ship that cannot be severed. When we
arrive at this point we should ask our
selves what does this day mean to
me, and realize that the measure of
a life is not what it receives, but
what it gives and that the children of
the past are the parents of the fu-
ture. The least we can do is to hand
on that which we have received with
such additions as we are able to make.
Social environment acts are the mould
of the human life.
The speaker stated that one of the
first things she discovered which mar
and MAIN life is child labor. used in
it's technical term. Her relating of her
experience in investigating the child
labor problem was of much interest.

by substantial majorlties. The Presi-
dent was in a happy mood as he sign
ed and, in laying one souvenir pen
aside to use another, he smilingly re-
marked: "I'll change engines"
When the bill had been signed the
President made a brief speech.
81 want to say" said the President.
'how sincere my qualification is in the
completion of this measure and its
successful passage. | feel that we have
at last reached out the hand of real
helpfulness and brotherhood to Alaska
which will now link it to us by many
bonds that will be valuable to both
sides. This is a contamination that
/ have been hoping might arrive in
my administration and that it has
come soon is to me very delightful.
Secretary Lane Immediately after
ward had a long talk with the Presi-
dent about the selection of engineers
for the task Though Colonel Goethals
had been mentioned for the work, it
is unlikely that he will be through
with the Panama canal in time for
the present undertaking, which Mr..
Lane intends to get into operation at
once. The President said the enact
ment of the railway bill would be fol-
lowed by the passage of the Alaska
leasing bill which would mean the
carrying out of the administration pro-
gram for the deveopment of Alaska in
a short time. He added that an at
tempt would be made to gather the
working forces this year and that
map showing the various routes and
conditions existing along each would
be studied by the President.
