"a Life and Ship" sea story by
Lincoln Colcord in the August number
of The American Magazine, will be read
with deep interest by all who enjoy we'll
told tales, while others will regard it as
something more than creation of the
tory tellers art-as an epic of the sea,
in which is portrayed the passing of the
sailing ships and their commanders. And
in the end, true to the traditions of the
old-time seafarers, the worn out COM
mander goes to his final rest in the once
proud ship that had outlived her useful
ness as coal barge.

ing the Presidents policy and assisting
Germany by creating sentiment in favor
of Congress placing an embargo on the

SEVERE RHEUMATIC
PAINS DISAPPEAR

Rheumatism depends on an acid
in the blood, which affects the
muscles and joints, producing in
fammation, stiffness and pain. This
acid gets into the blood through
some defect in the digestive process.
Hoods Sarsaparilla, the old-time
blood tonic, is very successful in the
treatment Of rheumatism. 1t acts
directly, with purifying effect, on
the blood, and improves the diges-
ton. Don t suffer. Get Hood s today.

The communication from Mr.. C. W.
Frederick in another column makes an
interesting suggestion in regard to the
naming of Belfast's new school build
inys. The name of Mcclellan is general
ly used in speaking of the North Primary
school and it is eminently fitting that it
should be thus officially designated.
Hon. W, H. Mcclellan was for many
years the recognized leader of the Wal
do County bar, had served the State as
Attorney General, and his son, Hugh D.
Mcclellan, Esq, had been principal of
the Belfast High school and his daugh-
ter, Miss Jane A. Mcclellan, now Mrs.
James Preston of Lowell, Mass, teacher
of languages in that school, in which
both did most efficient service.

Gertrude Anterior declares that t'the
New England literary tradition" is a
blight on American literature. Ger.
tsude explains that this tradition "shows
itself in cold, polished, exquisite sort
of writing that has almost no relation to
life" What pity this theory could not
have been advanced early enough to per-
nit Nathaniel Hawthorne, William Dean
Howells and several other fairly promi-
nent and respectable writers to take ad-
vantage of it.-Biddeford Journal
Then there are Kate Douglas Wiggin
and Sarah Orne Jewett. Can any one
say that their writing is a ''cold, polish
ed, exquisite Sort Mrs. Wiggin's
books are full of vitality, wit and humor;
and no more charming prose was ever
written than that from the pen of Miss
Jewett. Aside from their faithful por-
trayal of Maine people and scenes her
b ooks will live as long as there are read
ers who appreciate pure literature.
