How Far Is
Ellsworth Falls?
Not So Far That the Statements
Of Its Residents Cannot Be
Verified.

Rather an interesting case has been de-
Veloped in Ellsworth Falls. Being so near
oy, 1t is well worth publishing here. The
statement is sincere-the proof convinc-
ing:
Mrs. r. /. Moore, Ellsworth Falls, Me-,
says: Some years ago, 1 came home
from the hospital where / had undergone
an operation. All that winter j was
miserable with severe attack OF kidney
trouble. The pain in my back was almost
unoearable and medicine and doctors
treatment failed to do me any good.
Doan's Kidney Pills, however, went di-
rectly to the seat of the trouble, not only
curing the backache but strengthening
my Kidneys and improving my condition
IN every way"

To Avoid CATARRH
Or Break Up A Cold
Use Hyomei, Simple Remedy that
Instantly Relieves.

At the first symptom of catarrh
such as sniffies, fits of sneezing, rails
ing of mucus, itching of the nose, or
that chocked-up feeling, surely take
immediate steps to conquer the dis
ease. Catarrh is not only distressing,
unclean and annoying, but a serious
ailment. ,-----
One of the earliest and simplest
remedies to check catarrh and break
up cold is Hyomei. Just put few
drops of this antiseptic and healing
liquid into the small inhaler that
comes with every complete outfit, and
breathe it. This indicated air i'm
mediately soothes the infamed tissues
and effectively drives out the poison.
Just few minutes use of this most
helpful remedy opens the stuffed air
passages, clears the head and throat
of the unclean discharges you
breathe freely and Immediately feel
better.
Hyomei is so certain to relieve and
give lasting benefit that G. A. Parcher
sells it on the "No-cure-no-pay" plan.

STRENGTH IN EXCITEMENT.

Either Fear, Rage or Pain Starts the
Ad.enal Glands to Work.
Many Il person has wondered where
he obtained the strength that enabled
him to undergo some emergency that
called for unusual physical exertion
when under ordinary conditions he
would be unable to control u 1.-THE of
that strength. 1t was from the adre-
nal glands. two little glands situated
above the kidneys which secrete what
b known as adrenaline and when
stimulated discharge the same into the
blood. The effect of this addition to
the blood is to release sugar from stOr-
age in the liver and bring it into the
blood. drive the blood from the alb
dominal regions into the heart. lungs.
central nervous system and limbs. The
resulting effect is to excite the muscles
to irritability and enable unusual efort
to be made.
Either fear. rage or pain will sup
ply the stimulus required to set the
adrenal glands into action. When a
muscle is fatigued without any &C.
companying degree of excitement it
may take a couple OF hours for 1t to
ecover its normal condition. but 1t
adrenaline is injected. or If through
excitement the adrenal glands are
stimulated to discharge and secrete.
the fatigued muscle may regain its
'irritability" in three minutes. The
s,,oar cot froo from the liver and cir
culated in the blood stimulates the
muscles. for sugar is the source OF
muscular energy. Fear, rage and pain
are thus given us by nature as agen-
cies to enable US to S u physical
powers to their fullest extent In the
crisis that produces the excitement

In old Trinity churchyard. where
Robert Fulton and Alexander Hamil-
ton lie buried. dozens of girls can lie
seen through the pickets Of the bronze
fences every day enjoying their noon
day lunches amid the tOmbs OF the
old time New Workers. All about are
high skyscraping office buildings. The
elevated trains clatter and bang over
head. and ON Broadway the trolley's
gongs add tumult to the roar of the
city. Within the old c%hurchyard all
is peace and quiet. 1t is here that the
girls from these big office buildings
come of Il nOOntime to eat their lunch.

within a hands reach Of the hustle Of
Broadway.
1t was only Il few years ago that
some girl. a typewriter in a nearby
office building. CHANGED to let her eyes
fall over the glavestones Of old Trinity.
They did not bring thoughts of ghosts
to her mind--they only made her think
that it would be lovely it she could eat
her lunch among such peaceful scenes.
The next day she and Il girl friend
brought their lunches. They entered
the c%hurchyard and. seeking Il secluded
pot behind the old church. sat down
ON an old tomb and began to eat their
sandwiches. Nobody objected. The
next day they came again. Other girls.
emerging from stuffy restaurants. saw
them and resolved to initiate them.
The next day there were half a dozen
there, and nowadays. when the noon
hour is bright and sunny. the number
has increased to sometimes seventy

FalIina up Out of a Balloon.

If a man falls out Of a rising aero
plane or balloon be will not go toward
the earth, but will continue rising into
the air for an appreciable time. II the
air machine were stopped in its ascent
at the time it could catch the man
as he came down. II the airship were
ascending at the rate of thirty two feet
a second the man would rise sixteen
feet before beginning to fall toward
the earth. Thus. by reducing the speed
of it's ascent, the vessel might keep by
the side of the man and reset him.
The reason why the man rises Is the
same as the reason for q bullets rising
when shot from a gun into the air
both the man and the bullet are given
a velocity upward. and it takes some
time for gravity to negative that
velocity.-Glasg0w News.

Equality Of Sex.

There is a little girl in Springfield.
Mass. who. like many of her sex. re-
sents the imputation that the feminine
mind is not so strong as the masculine.
One day her mother remarked on the
apparent lack of intelligence in u hen.
You can't teach a hen anything"
she said. They have done more harm
to the garden than a drove of cattle
would. You can teach a cat. a dog or a
pig something. but a hen-never!"
Finn exclaimed the child indig-
nantly. Il think they know just as
much as the roosters!"-Youth's Com
