sufferer perhaps from total deafness In
England scientists for a long time past
nave recognized that catarrh is a consti-
tutional disease and necessarily requires
a constitutional treatment.
Sprays. inhalerS and nose douches are
liable to irritate the delicate air passages
and force the disease into the middle ear
which frequently means total deafness,
or else the disease IS driven down the air
passages towards the lungs which is
equally as dangerous. The following for
mula which is used extensively in the
damD English climate is a constitutional
treatment and should prove especially
efficacious to sufferers here who live UNI

Gardiner during the afternoon that %
of the men similarly employed in the
Crossett factory in Augusta had made
a like demand which had not been
granted and that they had quit work,
the excitement among the men was
somewhat intensified.
The management feels. it is stated
from some of those in position to
know, that the increase asked for is
abnormal and all out of proportion to
just compensation for the service
rendered and it is felt that the demand
of the workmen will not be met. There
are over 100 lasters in the factory, work
ing upon five different branches. The
schedule presented includes all five
branches.
In justice to the company it should
be stated that they made the lasters
| a voluntary increase in wages but q
| year and a half ago. 1t is sincerely
! hoped by Gardiner residents that the
matter will be satisfactorily adjusted
| on Tuesday.

Red Cross Seal Sale for 1915

The Gardiner Red Cross chapter an
nounces the sale of seals for Christmas.
1915, as 2i,239, as against q, 2O3 for the pre-
Vlous year. Although the chapter hoped
to exceed last years sale by several
thousands. still they are very happy ever
the large number sold. This years sale
of seals puts into the treasury of the
Gardiner Red Cross chapter a goodly
sum to be used for milk, eggs, medicines
etc, for tuberculosis patients here. The
money in the chapters treasury for this
purpose was quite exhausted. 1t may be
recalled that last year over $4CO were
spent in less than nine months for these
comforts and in making possible sana-
forum treatment for one young patient
The arrest of the disease in this young
patient is almost assured. and it is hoped
very shortly that the case may be dis
missed as cured.
The community is urged to report to
the Gardiner chapter anyone suffering
from tuberculosis that it may help them
in many ways to make a brave figh,
against the disease.
Medical authorities agree that tuber-
culosis can be arrested and then cured
if taken in time, that is. in it's early
stages. Persons suffering from tubercu-
losis in All stages may be taught how to
make themselves more comfortable and
how to safeguard the lives of those near.
est and dearest to them, and so prevent
the spread of the disease in the family
and community.
Let us not forget that last year is Gar
diner there were six deaths from tuber.
culosis in as many months These came
under our own observation. How many
more were there Of which We have no
knowledge?

Interesting Collection Of Old AImanacs


Philip n. Goliath of this city is the
| possessor of an interesting collection of
! old almanacs which in number. age and

as 1911 and published first at Exeter

ed at Portland dates as far back as
1871. OF the old original Robert b.
| Thomas Old Farmers Almanac he has
| almost complete line as far back as
1871. The contents are much the same
as present day almanac. An interest
ing feature is the giving of the lines of
stages that Leave Hale's Tavern, Bos-
ton, daily at 10 a. Nj. and arrive in
Portland at $50 \. NJ. the following
| morning" The sittings of the various
courts in the New England states is

ing feature is the Roads to the prin-
cipal towns on the continent, from Bos-
ton the inns and the names of those
who keep them The following were
given: Gardiner. Rice; Hallowell. Til
; ton and Longfellow: Augusta. Pollard"
Perhaps the most interesting Of the
whole lot are copies of New England
Anl-Masonic Almauac. published IN
1913. This is supposed to be something
of an expose on Masonry, the signs of
the order being all illustrated and quo
tations from Capt. Morgan's Light on
Masonry are plentiful. There is also
an interesting sketch of Capt. William
Morgan The balance of the book con-
tains the material found in other al
