"One day a friend persuaded my
wife to take Tanlac and the results
have been nothing less than wonc -

tirely disappeared, but she has actu-
ally gained twenty pounds in weight
and now seems to be in perfect
health. She has suffered for eight
years with headaches. nervousness
and loss of appetite and was in a
badly rundown condition. She could
not eat much, had pains all through
her body and limbs and was SO weak

her feet. She was losing weight and
gradually getting worse all the time

Thursday, January "a, 1891.


It would, perhaps, be unreasonable
to expect that the present Legisla-
ture would be so fortunate as to es-
cape the attention Of those who seek
q rowing commission to fix over the
State Constitution. Anyhow this
good luck does not come this year.
On Wednesday q resolve was intro
Guced to authorize calling State
Constitutional convention. providing
that: 1T shall be the duty Of said
convention to correct those violations
of the Constitution which now exist"
There is q somewhat novel flavor
to this proposition, convention as
sembling to correct violations of the
Constitution" Some had supposed
there existed adequate and better
ways of correcting violations" Be
that as it may. the important ques-
ton to be considered is whether any
such rowing commission should be
granted. We see no need of it. and
being well aware of a certain form
of mania always existing for tinker
ing constitutions. would hesitate to
commend the proposition on any
grounds thus far advanced.
II there be any specific need for
changing the Constitution it may be
properly met through the medium Of
the Legislature, where full discus
sioa and consideration can be had
respecting it. Nothing, we believe,
could be gained by calling a conven-
ton with power to go the limit of it's
fancy. ... ...
These who have most to do with
the Constitution learn to regard 1t
with respect and recognize the evils
arising from tinkering with it. They
are aware that it is fundamental,
that it's provisions profoundly affect
the laws. that change in them does
not wipe the slate, as the legal de-
cis:ons made in compliance with
them remain and demand considera-
ton. Under q legislative resolve of
February "a, 1875, Chief Justice
John Appleton made draft and ar
rangement Of amendments. A SINH
lar work may be advisable at this
lime, but We do not think it can be
shown to be advisable to throw open
the door to constitutional tinkering.

Maine Gossip
Duty CT the Stars

written for the Maine Farmer by
Bernice Watson Patterson)
Haven't you often wondered
When you were out at night,
And saw the stars up in the sky
Shining SO clear and bright,
What made them look so CHEEKY
And what they were put there for
And why some were brighter than
others
And weren't you filled with awe.
AS you watched them twinkle and
sparkle
Each big and little star
Like little chips of diamonds
Way up in the sky so far?
Now listen just for q minute
And Ill tell you secret of mine,
And If you will share it with me
! think 1t will be quite fine.
! think the stars we see shining
AT night when the sun goes to rest.
Are lights in the windows of Heaven
Put there by the Cnes we love best.
To light us safely home again
When our stay on earth is done,
Back to the ones who have gone before
Who are waiting for us to come.
like to stand and watch them,
Such wonderful sight to see,
And often times | wonder
Which one is shining for me.
