The State highway commission has
found solution for the State high
way problem in Hancock county,
having officially designated two
routes = one the direct route from
Bangor to Ellsworth, the other by
way of the Penobscot river towns to
Bucksport, thence to Bluehill and
Ellsworth. This is eminently better
than the compromise plan suggested
in the Teddy pond route, and should
please all sections of the county.
The only bad feature Of it is that the

much thinner, bu. we can get along
with little less butter per mile than
was used on the Trenton section Of the

State Committee Chairmanship.

State Committee Craftsmanship.
Col. F. q. Parkhurst, OF Bangor, has
rendered his resignation as chairman
OF the republican State committee to
enter the campaign as candidate for
the nomination for governor. He is
succeeded as chairman by Frank j.
Ham, of Kennebec county, selected
because OF his qualifications for or
ganization and leadership.
Col. Parkhurst retires from the
Craftsmanship with record for self
sacrificing devotion to his party and
an untiring energy which were the
wonder of all who came in contact
with him during the strenuous time
of political campaign.
He was elected chairman in 1918 to
succeed Hon. Warren E. Philbrook, of
Waterville, when the latter was APP
pointed associate justice OF the
supreme court. His first campaign
as State chairman was for the election
of Hon. John A. Peters to Congress
from the third district in the special
election, and his leadership at that
time proved beyond doubt that the
proper man had been chosen as chair
man of the committee.
The story of the unparalleled cam
paign led by Col. Parkhurst in 1914
has often been told, and men have
marvelled at the virility which made
it possible for him to direct the cam
paign fifteen hours a day for three
months, besides taking an active part
IN it himself by speaking many times
to county committee gatherings and
campaign audiences.

LIKE FINDING MONEY.


G. A. Parcher Offers Popular Medi-
cine at Half Price.
G. A. Parcher, the popular druggist, is
making an offer that is just like finding
money, for he is selling regular 80 cent
bottle OF DIR. Howard's celebrated specific
for the cure Of constipation and dyspepsia
at half price. In addition to this large
discount he agrees to return the money to
any purchaser whom the specific does not
cure.
1t is quite unusual to be able to buy fifty
cent pieces for a quarter, but that is what
this offer really means, for it is only re-
Gently through the solicitation OF Drug
gist G. A. Psrcher that this medicine could
be bought for less than fifty cents. He
urged the proprietors to allow him to sell
it at this reduced price for a little while,
agreeing to sell a certain amount. The
result has justified his good judgment for
the sale has been something remarkable.
Anyone who suffers with headache,
dyspepsia, dizziness, sour stomach, specks
before the eyes, or any liver trouble,
should take advantage OF this opportunity,
for DIR. Howard's specific will cure all
these troubles. But il by any chance it
should not, g. A. Pafcher will return your
money.

WARNING.

Hancock county farmers were victimized
last year by a travelling nursery agent,
who sold poor trees which came far from
being true to name. The grating season
will soon be on, and it seems to be the
desire of large NUN Der OF farmers to have
those trees which did not come true to
name top worked.
If you do not understand how to do this
work yourself, be more cautious OF the
man rho comes around to do it for you,
posing as an s'expertv. In all proba bility
he will have in his '.kit", an inexhausti-
BILE supply Of scions of whatever variety
OF fruit you want. Where did he get
them? The facts are known that some
such scions have been taken from trees
which have never borne, supposed to be
OF such and such variety, but nobody
could swear to their trueness to name un-
til they have borne.
1t is bad enough crime to sell a man
trees which are not as represented, but it
is worse to graft them, with the idea OF
giving a man good varieties, and using
any old thing for scion. Look out for
the CRATER. Be sure that the scions used
have come from trees which bear fruit of
merit, or else three years hence when you
go out to harvest your crop of Mcintosh,
you'll pick lemons instead.
The county agent will be glad to locate
scions for Hnyone who does not know
where to get what he wants, and his
recommendation of a man to do your
work would be pretty safe guarantee Of
satisfaction.
Watch next weeks AMERICAN for the
program of an aIi-day demonstration
field-day meeting to be held at Meadow
view farm, Lakewood, Martin A. Garland,
manager, on May 8. It's going to be we'll
worth your while to attend.
