Thursday evening. 1t was reported as
an altman affair as far as the work
of preparing and serving the repast
was concerned. The serving was be-
yond a doubt but the preparation Of
the food.-well. we strongly suspect
that the better halves of the men had a
finger in that.
F. S. Smith had general oversight of
the affair and was kept flying about
after the fashion Of the snow outside.

SEVERE DRIFTS
ARE REPORTED

Residents in the city proper nave out
a slight conception Of the storm IN the
rural districts. Roads in all directions
were blocked and the snow bills OF the
various towns for clearing the snow
from this one storm will be larger than
for the entire winter previously a
fair way to get real idea Of the con-
ditions is to ask any Of the rural car
riers not one leaving the Gardner or
fee was able to make the entire trip
by horse and sleigh. F. n Carleton
on r. F. D. No. 9 came the nearest to
ACCOMPLISHING this as he covered all
but one mile with his horse. Several
carriers tried to work their route by
reversing the order and covering the
part usually covered first, last. 1t
didn't work as both ends were as bad
as could be- Sleds. snowshoes and all
kinds Of contrivances were impressed
into service The last carrier arrived
at the Office just before six. The Lew
iston electrics made bot few through
trips as the snow blew in about as fast
as it could be cleared from the tracks.

The Anti-Tuberculosis Society illus
trates the frightful toll Of consumption
by extinguishing light every three
minutes, and shows that it is the man
or woman, girl or boy, who neglects
colds, whose blood is impure, who feels
weak and languid, who is the very
one to contract tuberculosis-and
none are immune.
During changing seasons, or after
sickness, blood-quality is most impor-
tpt, and if you and your family will
take SCOTS Emulsion after meals it
will charge your blood with health
sustaining richness, quicken circulation,
and strengthen both lungs and throat.
SCOTS is free from alcohol-easy to
take-it cannot harm. Get a bottle to-day.

MARRIED MEN OF
ENGLAND B A L K
AT ENLISTMENT

London. March 16.-Premier Asqulth
and the Earl Of Derby were criticized
severely at a large meeting in London
today of married men who have at
tested for service in the army. Speak
ers declared there were still 100000
single men available and that the mar
ried men would refuse to serve until
Premier Asquith redeemed his pledge
10 bring out the single men before the
others were called 70 the colors.
The feeling Of the meeting was in
tensified by the reading Of a letter
from Mr.. Asauith declining to receive
deputation representing the married
mon on the ground that this was Il
subject to be dealt with by Parlia-
ment.
TIE meeting adopted by reclamation
resolutions demanding that the pre-
,,,;er receive Populations and that all
proclamations calling up married men
be withdrawn.

The naval militia. he said, was be-

what private craft would be immedi-

Il result the surplus of cobbler seed Is

will aid some in supplying the late
market.
In Central Maine the farmers are
selling their stock to the local stores
at sl.So-sl.40 per hushel; last season the
farmer had to sell four bushels to get
that amount of money.
Professional agriculturalists con-
stantiy deplore the decadence Of agri-
culture in the New England states and
their constant cry is to raise more and
then more. In view Of the exact situa-
ton with a IS per cent. crop bringing
as much as normal crop the farmer
is not impressed with the cry to raise
more.
One Of the worst misfortunes to over
take an agricultural state is over pro-
duction for what brings misfortune to
the producer also brings misfortune to
the consumer.

" Breezy Pointw

All points and indeed nearly all places
were breezy during the past few days,
but the particularly breezy point on
Thursday evening was at the Coliseum
when the drama of that name was pre-
scented by the young people Of the Con-
gregational church. 1t was a success,
a real success and if anybody attend
ing was dissatisfied with the play, the
acting or the music, they would do
well to cut future attendance of all
theatricals from their itinerary.
The drama was in three acts. the
first being laid at the Breezy Point
sitting room. the second at camp in
the woods (six weeks later), and the
final act the same as the first. All
parts were exceedingly we'll taken. Miss
Alice NJ. Richards as Aunt Debby DeX-
ter delighted the audience with as fine
piece Of histronc work as has been
seen in Gardiner for several years.
Thelma Lord, Adelia Potter, summer
boarders fresh from boarding school.
added much to the breeze. Miss Vida
Prilay as Elinor Pearl, and Miss Doris

Mrs. George Curry as Mrs. Hardscratch
displayed business propensities seldom
eXcelled in real life. Misses Annie
Blanchard and Avis Wiley as the
twins who "never tell nothin'" we're a
feature. Glenn Colpitts as Mehitable
| Doolittle. Miss Lucille Quimby as Fam
tine, a French maid. and Miss Mertie

ried their parts to perfection. Before
