Profit in q Fine.

(The London Morning Post
The existing peculiar conditions in
the international money market can
produce very strange and paradox
cal phenomena Here is case in
which the exchange actually trans
formed a punishment into reward.
In 1916 a man from across the Baden
frontier was arrested in Switzerland
for smuggling. He was released on
q bail OF 5000 francs. which then
cost him 1900 marks. For some rea-
son the case dragged on and was de-
cided only quite recently. The ac-
cused was sentenced to a fine of
5000 francs and 800 francs cost. He
received, as the balance of his bail
1900 francs, which he changed for
$4,000 marks. Consequently. his lit
tie adventure brought him in net
profit of 16, 500 marks. AS one of the
humors of the exchange this de-
serves to be coupled with the case of
a Swiss brewery, which is said to
have found it economical to label it's
beer bottles with Austrian kroner

kennebec- Boston Steamer Service.
The Journal has heard numberless
expressions of approval of it's urg-
ing the people of the kernebec val
ley to get together and take some
action for the resumption of steam
boat service between the kennebec
river and Boston. The Bath Times,
which started the agitation, makes
the same report. Now is the time,
let every person and business or
ganization start definite action
toward securing the service that we
SO much need-for both convenience
and business. The Bath Times Fri
day night said:
The Boston and Kennebec steamboat
matter seem to have become consid-
erably stirred since the Times published
its editorial on the plan of a possible
purchase of the wharf properties and Il
boat of the Eastern Steamship Lines
Inc. and there is much press comment
upon the matter throughout the State.
The concensus of opinion seems to be
that kennebec valley cities should be
longer be without steamboat connec-
tons with Boston and if the East
ern company is not to operate, that some
means should be taken to have boat
on the route this year. Activity on the
part Of the business men along the Ken
nebec valley can bring this about. The
only thing is to arouse this activity and
fair start seems to have been made
along these lines.

"Put Up or Shut Up, Mr.. Borah

Anyone SO benighted as to suppose
that presidential primaries may be
conducted without legitimate expen-
dture Of a good many dollars isn't
intelligent enough to merit the priv
ileges Of suffrage. Moreover some
one has to furnish that money. In
less only rich men are to be permit
ted to be candidates friends of a man
are compelled to render some finan-
cial assistance. The limit Of that fl
nancial assistance should be regu-
lated or the methods of the primary
will lead to saturnalia. Regulation
in State primaries has been provided
but it evidently is a much more diff
cult thing to do in the case of the
country at large. Great skill as we'll
as intelligence will be required be-
fore an equitable solution Of this is
likely to be found and applied.
Meanwhile nothing but public senti-
ment can regulate. To excite that
public sentiment unjustly is a mis-
chievous thing to do: its purpose is
to bulldoze or to deaden the sensibil-
tiles of the people until they shall be
unable to recognize a genuine alarm.
From these indubitable facts it
appears that Senator Borah is either
doing the public a great favor or a
rank injustice. The only way in
which it may be determined which
he really is doing is for him to reveal
the information on which he claims
to base his protests against the use
of money by General Wood and Mr..
Lowden, both Of whom are having a
strong lead over Mr.. Borah's candi-
date. Johnson. 1t will be noticed
that he doesn't charge either with
corruption or illegal use of money
but seeks to create the impression

HOW NEuRASTHENIA
VICTIM RECOVERED
NEURASTHENIA

SE-Eeurasthenia is a con-
dition OF nervous exhaustion
caused by the excessive ex-
penditure of nervous energy
without proper rest. 1nfiu-
enza, great grief, extreme
anxiety, shocks and rheuma-
tism are contributing causes.
SYMPTOMS-Victims feel ex-
IRENE nervousness bordering
on hysteria. Imaginary trou-
bles are worried over and
blamed ON others. Sleep is
fitful, the appetite is variable.
Indigestion frequently occurs.
Nervous headaches, heart pal
pitation. dizziness, weakness,
depression of spirits, loss Of
weight and sensations of fear
are also symptoms.
TREATMENT-The treatment OF
neurasthenia is one OF nutri-
ton of the nerve cells requir-
ing a non-alcoholic tonic. AS
the nerves get their nourish-
ment from the blood the treat
ment must be directed towards
building up the blood.
EXAMPLE-Read how this resi-
dent Of Massachusetts, over

the judge who tried the case is a Re
