Genius of Philology
GiUen Stern Justice

Curious pleas have sometimes been
put forward in support Of the reprieve
of notorious criminals. One of the
strangest was that on behalf of
George Ruloff, an American school
teacher, who was convicted in 1870
of series of robberies and murders.

among the victims. For cold-blooded
cruelty his record would be hard to
beat, but Ruloff had his other side. ;
He was an ardent phllologist, and
had been engaged for years on the in
vention of universal language. No
one could attempt to palliate his
crimes, but widely signed petition
was presented to the governor of vir.
ginia for his reprieve on the ground

kind it would be criminal folly to ex-
tinguish such light of learning. The
governor thought otherwise and Ruloff

BUSINESS CROWS

Business is booming. says Norman
Campbell, photographer Of charac-
ter"
Well may this Augusta man use
this phrase for, although he has been
In the Capital City much less than a
year, business has grown so that he
has been enabled to open a studio in
Waterville and the up-river city will
be privileged to have the same high
grade of photography as that to
which the people of Augusta have
been treated.
In speaking Of photographs of
character, Mr.. Campbell means Just
that. Photographs may be real pic
lures or they may be just plain pho
tographs. 1t is the Campbell aim to
make them pictures-photogra
that have distinction and are works
of art. In this he seems to have sue

TWO SHOPS NEEDED
TO Do WORK

Good work and quick work in fix
Ing shoes is done by Cary G Poulin.
So good is it in fact, that this firm
which started with one shop on Wa
ter street opposite the Colonial thea
tire, has been enabled to branch out
and now has two shops, for there is
a fully equipped establishment on
Cony street. 1t doesn't matter which
shop is patronized; the same high
quality of work will be done at
either.
Shoe-repairing is a fussy Job at all
times, and it is particularly a fussy
one these days when women's shoes
are such frail things. 1t is a delicate
job to re-sole pair of pumps and
still have them preserve that attrac-
tive, light appearance that one has
come to associate with womens foot
wear. Cary & Poulin do this. They
also do mighty good work on mems
shoes, for many pair has been
brought to them that looked as If
they couldn't be worn again. But
with the modern machinery used, the
care taken on every job, shoes prac-
tically as good as new have been re-
turned to their owner.

ELECTRICAL WAYS
MANY AND GOOD

These are electrical days, and
electrical ways are in order. L. f.
McCurdy, IS Bangor street, because
he is a good electrician, has been the
means of tightening the household
cares of many a woman in this Sec
ton.
Mac" Is known for the good work
ne does. Whether it is in wiring n
whole house or just putting in an
extra floor plug to accommodate a
vacuum cleaner, the same care and
attention are given. One may always
feel sure that McCurdy's work will
stand the test of hard usage. His
business has been steadily growing
since he has been running his own
shop and his light truck is seen in
all parts of the county. In addition
to doing electric wiring of all kinds,
McCurdy carries National Mazda
lamps, Simplex fiatirons and Laun-
dryette washing machines. Best of
all, he is able to give good service on
all these appliances.

POPULAR BREAD
MEETS ALL WISHES

The passing of bread making in
the home has been due to many
causes. Among them may be men,
toned, the fuss and worry and I'M
certainty, the quickness with which
homemade bread may go stale,
the expense and the ease and quality
of bakers bread. In this change in
demand from the home cooked loaf
to the bakery type, Beats All" bread
made by the Peoples bakery Of Au-
gusta, has had much to do.
The big white loaves, soft and
tasty, have found their way into
many homes, not only in Augusta,
but in other sections in the neigh
borhood. Bread may be used in al
most countless ways. But whether 1t
is eaten with just butter, or is toast

BRICKS LAID ALL.
OVER THE COUNTY

Bricks have lost none of their pop
uiarity. Bricks made by George Robi-
chaud of Mount Vernon avenue are
regarded as so good they are recon-
mended by contractors as just the
right kind to use when a good job is
to be done. Robichaud has special
lied in water struck brick, the most
common kind, and these are to be
found all up and down the Kennebec
valley.
Chimneys and cellar walls and pi-
azza posts that may be located a
number of miles from the CAPITAL
City were, in probably a lot of cases,
manufactured right in Augusta at
the Robichaud yards. So successful
has been the business on Mount
Vernon avenue that the Robichaud
yards have developed capacity of a
million bricks year-a number that
few people can appreciate.

The letter, written on the stationery
of q commercial hotel in Lansing,
Mich, tells of the wrecking of Batter
shells dreams of a business career.
Parts of it follow:
This is your chance to crow-for

fcathered ones of i'll omen, have come

gouging taxi drivers.
II feel that it was crime to have
married you and dragged you into

CLASSES FLOUT LAW

NEW YORK, Oct. 10.-"There is
more disregard in our prohibition laws,
according to my observations, among
people of privilege than among the
workers and less privileged groups"
This statement was made By Bishop
Charles H. Brent, Episcopal bishop of
western New York, on his return from
Europe on the Swedish liner Drott-
ningholm.
Bishop Brent discussed the report
of the Federal Council Of Churches,
in which the church organization
frankly admitted extensive violation
throughout the country of the Volstead
law. Bishop Brent added:
My own experience has been that
there is a certain section of society
that has been greatly benefited by the
law. 1t is perfectly legitimate to try
for a change in the law by constitu-
tional amendment, but those who are
the law should approach it
as law keepers instead of law break
ers."
