Goats ard CoU's MIX

In taste goats milk is like rich
cows milk, except that it is some
what whittier and tritle sweeter. The
uninitiated would not be able to dis
tinguish it from cows milk either by
taste or odor. 1t is slightly more Wis
cous than cows milk, the consistency
being smooth like tirst-run cream. Over
5000 goats are used by various gov
eminent hospitals for milk producing
purposes. tuberculosis sanatoriums
especially use large amounts of goats
milk. Experts declare that 1t is a
good body builder for patients suffer
ing from wasting diseases such as tu-
berculOsis. Goats milk being algaline
In its reaction, the same as human
milk, is about the best substitute for
mothers milk for babies. The curd
of goats milk, being tender and fiaky,
Is digested in the shortest possible
time. 1t is pure and wholesome and
can safely be taken in a raw state.
Goats are considered immune from
tuberculosis, so their milk needs no
pasteurizing, and runs no danger of
losing any of its vitamines or having
any of its lime salts altered by the
application of heat.

Mans Mind Euer in
Affect Grip of Fear

Primitive man began his existence
on earth under conditions that caused
his hair to stand on end dozen times
In the day of thrilling adventures.
When he looked around him it was
with an anxious, watchful eye for en-
emieS, and an ear strained to catch
the howlings of strange beasts.
1t was with reluctance he surren-
dered his consciousness at night, for
there was no security about his rude
couch. He looked up at the sky with
no sense of friendly aid to be sought
there, but rather with craven dread
of some malign intent in the strange
movements of the stars and in the
periodic appearance of flaming
comets.
Man lived for countless ages with
fear at his elbow, and theI centuries
of his advance in knowledge and cul-
ture have not enabled him TO rid him
self of the monster, says E. V. Odle
in p. It's and Cassells Weekly. One
result of this is that the language OF
almost every civilization abounds with
taboos and superstitions. while even
a good many of the sayings of the
great are colored with the emotions
of fear.
Science has disposed of superstition,
but it has come to understand only
a very little more about the emotion
of fear. 1t is only in his head and
in his heart that man is sometimes
Il hero in the pit of his stomach he
is always a coward. Physiologically,
the emotion of fear hits us very lit
orally below the belt. 1t affects the
great network of nerves situated under
the diaphragm and known as the solar
pleXus. These nerves are closely as
ISOLATED with all the most vital or
gans and they control the very pilot
upon which the human mechanism
works. Hence, the sinking feeling"
that we experience in moments of fear
is due to an actual relaxation of the
diaphragm itself and the consequent
embarrassment of the heart and the
pulmonary system.
Science has also discovered that
the sense of fear, when it becomes
intensified, tends to produce a we'll
marked condition known in medical
terms as phoba. There are agroa-
phobia or fear in crowds; monophobia,
or fright of being in confined space;
anthraphobia, or fright of society !;
bathophobia, or fright of things fall
ing; siderodromophObia, or fright of
railway travelling.

Told in an Ep;taph

There had been a motor car accident
resulting in injury to the driver and
two passengers. The magistrate con-
Quoting an investigation of the matter
summoned several witnesses, among
them farmer living near the scene
of the accident. There was a great
deal of testimony offered regarding
the high speed at which the car had
Travelled. Witnesses, moreover, said
that the road was in bad repair. The
magistrate finally reached the farmer.

The adjourned annual meeting OF
the Ellsworth branch of the Red
Cross will be held at the board OF
trade rooms in Hancock hall Friday
evening at 730. There was no
ouorum present at the meeting called
for last Wednesday evening. 1t IS
exuected that the State chairman for
the annual roll call, and Miss Sander
son. State superintendent of publlc
health nursing. will address the
meeting. The Red Cross work in
Ellsworth has received splendid en-
dorsement by the people, who nave
enrolled in the membership year
after year, yet at the annual meeting
OF the local branch called for last
week less than quorum gathereu.
The large membership is desirable,
but it is also necessary to nave
sufficient number of these members
take an active interest in order that
a working organization may be main
tanned. Every person who CON
tributed the 81 membership fee last
year is privileged to attend the meet
ing. and to vote.

Tells a Pathetic Story

1t Is two-inch strip of cigar-box
wood, with a half-inch hole rudely
whitfield through it at one end, and
1t occupies place in the collection of
curious things in the Office of Dr.
Sydney USHER the chaplain stationed
by the Episcopal City mission at the
City home on Welfare island.
The Whitfield hole, Doctor USHER
explains, was once filled with glass
lens from broken pair of spectacles
and the strings of cloth were used
as ear loops. An old inmate Of the
institution, who had lost the use Of
one eye entirely and was almost
blind in the other had laboriously
contrived homemade eyeglass in
order that he might not lose touch ut
terly with the news of the big city

Rely on America for
All Sorts of Goods

From a Peruvian mining camp in
the Andes came by mail to New
York department store not long since
an order for food. The shipment
made the last leg of its journey with
the help of fifty pack mules, each OF
which carried go pounds up the steep
ascent, says The Nations Business.
And from ALASKA came an order for
silk feminine underwear and hat
which would wear six months. The
styles change only twice a year up

A woman in Paris wrote to another
Eew York shop for certain powder
used to clean false teeth. A woman

Joke Would Seem to
Be OF, Photographers

Newspaper photographers like TO
poke fun at advertisements ann0unc-
ing the loss of an "open-faced mans
watch" announces the Montreal Her
aid. Who and where is this open
faced man? they inquire. But, truly,
he is no joke, the open-faced man.
May his tribe increase.
The countenance of the open-faced
man is no mask, concealing guile. His
character is written on it, so that all
can read, for he has nothing whereof
10 be ashamed. The open face is an.
open book
Scrambling metaphors, one may say
the open face is also mirror, receiv-
ing and rejecting light. The counte-
nance of the open-faced man is
cheering illuminant when other mems
faces are Swallowed by gloom and de-
spair.
But he is no professional Sunny
jim. The light in his countenance Is
the faith that is in his heart and
other men find strength and courage
in his presence.
Despite the photographers, there are
indeed such persons as open-faced
men. There are many of then. but
still not enough. Scripture gives hon
orable mention to the men of open
face, for in Corinthians it is written:
1--WE all with open face beholding as
in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are
transformed into the same image from
glory to glory"

Sorrento.

H. B. Thayer of New York visited
his summer home here few days
last week.
Fire early Sunday morning
destroyed the house here owned by
Frank P. Noyes of West Goulds-
boro, and occupied by William An
drews and family. Soon after mid
night Mr.. Andrews was awakened,
and found the attic full of smoke, so
much so that he could not enter it to
locate and extinguish the fire. He
aroused his family ad summoned
neighbors, but nothing could be done
to save the building. About all the
furnishings on the first floor were
saved and some beds and padding but
the family lost most of their clothing.
1t is understood thare was no insur-
ance on the building or contents. Mr..
Andrews and family are now living
in the old postoffice building.
