THE Value OF TRUTH

Truth in BUSINESSES just as important
as truth in everyday life; truth creates
confidence. establishes goodwill and
builds a reliability that will not be
wrecked by the storms of competition.
Through three generations people
have learned to place reliance on the
advertised words of SCOTS Emulsion,
because they are untarnished, unex-
aggerated truisms about a household
remedy of real and actual worth.
The popularity of SCOTS Emulsion
is increasing as intelligence advances,
because in these days of authorizations
it continues to guarantee pure cod liver oil
incidentally perfected with glycerine and
hypophosphites to build strength, inn
prove the blood and strengthen the lungs
tits free from alcohol or whole
some food-tonic, truthfu1ly advertised.

Whether or not Col. F. E. Boothby
of Waterville will be designated as the
trustee of what funds remain of the
Maine Health Day Association has not
yet been decided The matter now
rests with Associate Justice Bird of
the Supreme court before whom ar
guments We're presented Wednesday
on a bill in equity brought by Col.
Boothby against the association. When
the hearing was concluded, Justice
Bird reserved his decision.
About $1,000 are involved in the COM
plications surrounding the financial
affairs of the association. This is
now in the hands Of Col. Boothby and
he wants to know what to do with this
money, whether it shall be turned owes
to the treasurer or returned to those
who furnished it.
IN his bill. Col Boothby requests
that he be declared the trustee of the
funds and not the treasurer of the as
ISOLATION and he also wants the court
to decide what he shall do with the
money and also asks that the defen-
0ants be restrained from taking any
legal action 10 get possession of the
money.
In the bill, which is a very lengthy
one. the statement is made that the
Maine Health Day Association was or
ganized on May Il, 1912, with capital
stock of $1,000. 1t was designed to
educate the people and to help their
health by pointing out the dangers Of
tuberculosis. The officers at the time
of organization were: President. A.
A. Downs: treasurer and clerk. Henry
II. Sawyer; directors, these two and
r. 4. Mitchell.
Col. Boothby says that, on June ).
1912, Sawyer and John J. Hill came to
him and said they two had made a
contract with the association for the
collection of subscriptions to further a
health campaign. One-half of the re-
ceipts, according to Hill and Sawyer,
were to be paid to them while, after
the expenses of the campaign were de-
Quoted, the remainder was to be turned
over to the Maine Anti-Tuberculosis
Association.
Sawyer and Hill, according to the
bill. requested Col. Boothby to act as
trustee Of the money collected. The
plaintiff recites that he knew he was
designated as Frederick E. Boothby,
treasurer" but he declared that he re-
garded himself as treasurer Of the
fund and not Of the association.

OF the yacht filling with water while
moored in the harbor of Portland. on
the 18th day of June, 1863. The policv
was issued by defendant on the 10Th dav
OF October. 1903. On this day the pIain-
tif was sole owner of the yacht. which
was then lying in the port of Portland.
and continued to be it's sole owner until
after the filling of the yacht on the dav
stated. To the policy was attached a
rider at the end of which il is providea
that the terms and conditions of this
form are to be regarded as substituted

form which. being executed by the in
surer, contains merely the name Of the

Whether a policy be for voyage or

warranty Of seaworthiness is the same
as to compliance being condition pre-
cedent at the outset, and as to non-com-
pliance at intermediate stages of the

The obligation of the assured, after the
policy has once attached, to mako his
vessel seaworthy, as far as practicable,
at each stage Of the voyage, is not a
technical warranty. the breach Of which
will wholly terminate the policy. but
merely duty, the failure Of which will
discharge the underwater from any loss
arising from such want Of repair.
Where a policy. has once attached and
the risk Is entire. there can be no recov-
cry Of the premium paid in the event
that the insurer is found not liable on
the policy.

was collected and half OF this was
paid over to Sawyer and Hill. On July
l, 1912, the Maine AntiTuberculos!s
Association repudiated the contract
Sawyer and Hill decided to continue
the collection of money and announced
that a sanitarium would be erected for
the care and treatment of tuberculosis
patients. The further sum of S105s
more was collected.
Later in the month of July. Col.
Boothby resigned his position as trus-
tee. He received a letter from George
b. Goodwin Of Biddeford. then presi-
dent of the association in which Mr..
Goodwin prevailed upon Col. Boothby
to continue in Office with the under
standing that seven trustees We're to
be named to care for the fund. OF the
S217o collected, sl0S5 was paid to Saw
yer and Hill. The plaintiff now says
he has s11S7S1 in his possession.
The plaintiff recites that Monkey
Blumenberg is a creditor of Sawyer
and that on June y, 1914, Mr.. Blu
menberg came into possession Of
G6 1-3 shares Of the stock of the as
ISOLATION by execution. when he bid in
the shares for one dollar at public
auction.
On Dec. 2. 1914, at a meeting of the
association, Frank J. Hollywood was
chosen clerk and secretary and the
directors We're: Lester E Adams,
Monkey Blumenberg and Frank J.
Hollywood. On Dec. 19. Mr.. Blumen-
berg sent letter to Col. Boothby in
which he informed Col. Boothby that
he, Blumenberg, had been chosen
treasurer Of the Maine Health Day
Association. and he demanded the
money in the possession of Col. Booth
by.
1t was. shortly after this, that Col
Boothby brought his bill in equity
which is now to be argued He charges
that Mr.. Blumenberg is not actuated
by ANY charitable or philanthropic
impulse but wants to obtain control
of the money. Col. Boothby further
charges that he fears no part of the
funds will ever be used for the exter-
mination Of tuberculosis.
The defendants have made a general
denial of the allegations set forth in
the bill. AT the hearing Wednesday.
Hon. r. T. Whitehouse Of Woodman
& Whitehouse, appeared for Col.
Boothby while William A. Comedian
and Harry H. Camel represented the
defendants and especially Mr.. Blu
