The oil especially exerts its soothing and healing power on the lining membrane of the throat and lungs. What is more, it nourishes the body and gives i| strength to throw off disease. Jt contains ingredients that Nature graves to help her restore wasted flesh and tissue, and it is far superior to coiHiver oil because, being already partially digested, it ean be retained by the weakest stomach. Theliypbphosphites also give valuable aid; They keep the nerves active and vigorous. One bottle is often sufficient to cure a chronic cough. ,1,;/ So'.l brail 'IruSKlsta.

In one in stance he supplemented this statement hy the remark that the mere fact of in formation hoinif w ithheld was not to n taken as a serious indication. Kvery effort to suplement Secretary hay's statement with some informa tion from the White House failed. To urgent appeals for something definite, the President teplied through Secretary Porter that the whole matter was in Secretary Pay's hands and that the President relied on him to handle the information tor the press. It was stated ;11 the White Hous*\ however, that there was no truth in tie rumor of a censure upon Minist r Woodford for allowing Deputy De Home to forestall him in presenting th** application for the minister’s recall. Minister Wood lord’s course, it was stated. hail 1 i• n entirely satisfactory land any criticism at tiiis time was mi founded and unfair. h could not be ascertained positively whether or not an answer to Minister Wood fold's last dispatcli has l»een sent.

Small Delects Liable to Cause Trouble. A man inspecting freight cars crawled under each car and scrambled about looking at or feeling of each nut. bolt, brake-beam and rod. journal, boxing, draw-bar. etc., etc., until every part of the car had been gone over. If nuts were niissing, holts about to drop out. brake-rods dragging the ground, brake-beams cracked, or any defect appeared in the running or im portant part, the car was chalked and the car number reported at the shops Kxperience has taught the expensive folly of letting little defects remain uiienrn cted on engines i>r cars, until in time of need theeraeked brake-beam refuses to hold, or the nutless bolt drops out of place, and a smash-up is the result. If inanimate ears and engines are worth such care, why not the beautiful machinery of the human body? If you find daily at hes or ails, be quite sure it is nature’s try for relief from some insult you have been guilty of. Per haps you put coffee into your stomach day by day.

It is easy to change to Postum Food Coffee, a powerful liquid food, which when thoroughly boiled looks like Mocha, and has a delicious Java-like flavor, while the SO odd per cent of selected food elements go quickly to work to rebuild the lost phosphates and other necessaries of the brain and complex nervous system.

It cannot be questioned that the floor timhers on the fourth and fifth doors were charred to some extent, but it is equally clear that these doors did not collapse. As the girders in these doors were reinforced, the commissioner finds not reason to charge tin* local man who inspected the work, with having been m 'gligetil. The heavy snow on the roof, together with the enormous amount of water width the merchandise absorbed, made a weight of loo tons, and tjie roof timhers and girders in that portion of the build ing subjected to lire, together with the columns, which were so hurned as to he unable to further sustain this tremendous weight.

It is to lie hgped that the great speech of Congressman Lew is will not seriously affect the Washington h o market. There was frost enough in it to last a whole season.

Kx perience show s that though a man may get mad when a paper talks about him, he will get ten thousand times madder wh n it lets him alone.

The "In'ards" ol a Populist Speech. The more I lie recent “great speech’’ of Congressman Lewis is studied the greater is the number of gems un earthed. It was truly the “effort of his life.” In il were condensed all the sta tistics, official and otherwise, accumu Ute.l by the Populist party, from the date of its birth. It is very evident that this speech of Mr. Lewis was designed for campaign duty, and, in conse quence. it was “loaded for bear.” The theme was calamity. Mr. Lewis, him self, tin’ soul of good fellowship, and hopeful buoyancy, looked “through a glass darkly” at the future of our great republic. "Lest my vision be blurred with my fears, and my appre hensions distorted with anxiety,” he exclaimed, with dramatic force, “I be hold the passing away of representa tive government.” This is truly a sad and melancholy vision of the dire results of "conspiracy of wealth" for a tem perate man to experience, especially when one sees it amid the associations of our National House of Representa tives,more than seven-eighths of whose members worked their way to the front from humble beginnings, by their own untiring industry, and force of character. Mr. Lewis himself appears to have I.. vastly more favored on the threshold of life than were most if li is fellow members for. in this Vei speech, he declares that, during the dark days of civil strife, he wai "slumbering upon the bosom of hi black mammy..Let me hope," lv adds, "that even then my infant mus itigs were the dreams of liberty fo> which my voice now pleads." If wi read the biographies of the member ot the National House of Itepresenta lives we will tind that very few of then were able to carry on their "infant inusings'' in the arms of a "blaci mammy." That was a luxury unknown to the humble homes of their child hood. Fortunate Mr. Lewis! Why why should he stand today amid tli strong men who pursued their "infant musings" on the kitchen floor—whib mother did the work—and prophec.' the speedy dissolution of the Kepub lie? Amid such inspiring proofs of tic possibilities of American citizenship of the magnificent opportunities which energy and brains and character bav in push to tin- front in ttiis great lam' of the free, how could any man es pecially one whose tender years knew tile brooding care of a "black mam my"—paint so dark a picture. How could lie tind it in his heart to de l in his fellow citizens thill they stool ne.itli the dripping eavi s of a ne-lt ing structure?" As we have already said (hr speech j of Mr. Lewis' fairly hrisl’los with slatis- lies showing tlie niimher ami strength j of tlie trusts in this eiiiintry, lmt w. look tlu-m through in vain fur vv despondency and gloom— and fairly bristling with assurance; i that tile country is rapidly drifting to wards tin- dcmnition bow wows, lint there tit", in this speech.

With withering scorn it refers to the American Fitznoodles a 1 this new posterity, tltis fungus and putridcsccnt growth upon the body of our republic.” Harsh, undoubtedly, but true every word of it. It is, however. In his denunciation of "the money monop oly'1 that Mr. Lewis reaches his truly Olympic heights. "The third and last of this triple-coiled Anaconda.” he declares, "which has wriggled it-' crunching folds about the body of the Republic, the enemy of free govern ment anti of liberty,” etc., "is that money monopoly scourged by Christ, execrated by Jefferson, and damn "d and defied by Jackson!” lVrhaps, after all, the most eloquent of all tile passages of tltis eloqucn. speech is the one in which he con demns our honored President for dar ing to go to New York and speak out squarely and boldly for a sound cur rency. ami the maintenance of our na tional honor. This is the way Mr Lewis comes at him. "The same McKinley, now the hon ored President of the lirst lirin Repub lic tif earth, on yesternight, at the American palace of hostelries the gold tessellated and pearl mosaieed Waldorf Astoria, in New York city—there as the guest of nine billions of dollars and sixty of the “trusts" who have con jured government and crushed its citi zens—this President, amid tinkling f tunluins,delirious with the mazy sway! of entrancing music, inspired by the column ofglowing eyes looking through womanly radiance from the gallery above, balanced on either side by the fortified wealth of the favored few. he pledged himself to the violation of law, I THREE HAPPY WOMEN) Each Relieved of Periodic Pain'and Back* ache.

We trust, however, that Mr. I.ewis may have been mistaken about th President, or any one else who was present on that notal.de occasion, be coming "delirious with the mazy swaj of entrancing music"--or anything stronger. We have it upon good au thority that none of tie usual sources of Populistic inspiration were used on that occasion. It may be that tie President derived inspiration from those "glowing eyes" for he is a gal lant man and certainly his s|.h was brim full of it. We regret that we are unable to spend mote til.ligging for nuggets in this spei i h of Mr. I.ewis, but those we have brought to light will.we think, give a fair Idea of its general merits.

The growing importance of our com mercial interests in the Hast and the consequent significance to us of tit. threatened control of Chinese ports by Knmpean nations is indicated by a re port of United States Consul Fowler at Chefoo. At that single port the customs returns for the quarter ended Septem ber 30, 1SU7, compared with the same quarter in 1804, show a notable increase In the imports of American drills, jeans, sheetings and kerosene oil. The con sul also reports increased imports of American groceries, machinery, house hold goods, stoves, watches and con densed milk. The United States is in a position to exact the preservation of all its treaty rights in trade with the country toward which Kngland and Japan and Russia, Germany and France are stretching covetous hands. A story of martyr-like devotion to duty comes from San Francisco.

It would like to have a I'nited States military post established in its limits, but generously admits that Bangor has the best chance of getting this plum. A gossipy writer in the Waterville Mail has discovered why Bangor is railed the Queen city. It is not because of its superior beauty, not on account of its majesty, but because it is full if queens.

In some Of the families there was si'kness due to unsanitary condi tion of the premises, in other eases the discouraged and destitute people were about to la- evicted for non-payment of rent. The association knew that the families were worthy, but it was with out funds to help them. A wealthy man learned of the situation and asked for a detailed repert on all the cases, jj. sent his agents to every house with or ders to relieve the distress. Medical attendarne was secured for the sick Food and fuel in abundant quantities were delivered to all. The man spent over J400, but he did not allow his nam* to In- used in connection with the work and not more than four or five persons ever knew of his generosity.

An exchange tells a strange story from a Piscataquis town whose name ought to Ik- given hut is not. It is not easy to believe that any Maine com munity would select any such man for superintendent of schools as the one described here. The rejtort says that the superintendent of schools got into an argument with a loafer over the relative pugilistic ability of two lads attending the school near by. The re. suit was a wager with the condition that the winner should take half the money. A ring was formed and the boys went at it tooth and nail. Tiv superintendent was urging on his fav orite while the other ruffian was doing the same with his. When a sister of one of the boys tried to get into the ririgiand stop the tight she was bust led to,one side and not allowed to do so. Finally after the boys hart bit and scratched and pounded each other un til th*y were as bloody as two game cocks in a pit. a citizen of the place ^topped the fight. Mixed Maxims.

The way that Mr. Smith produces such harmony is bv the practice of his profession, which is that of a piano and organ tuner, and it is stated upon the best of authority, that tt better tuner never entered Ha state and this statement is proven b\ the fact that his services are in con stant demand, so that he now passes oneday out of every week in Waterville and another in Brunswick, the remain ing four days are divided between the three sister c ities of the Kennebec and the country hereabout, so that he is at all times a very busy man. A Journal reporter called upon XI t MR: MEUV1LI.K SMITH. 1 Smith one evening recently at his hum ami hail a pleasant (hat with Mr. (Smith concerning the incidents con nected with liis long service in hi ,chosen work. Mr. Smith is not mm-h Kitten to talking of himself ami his at fails', hut when tile Journal man had siicceeHjod in drawing him out along these lines he showed that his experi ences, besides being somewhat out of conventional lines, iiave been fraught with deep interest. Mr. Smith was horn in Rrunswiek mi I May II. 1MT He received a part of hi. education in the high school there, la ter fitting for Bowdoin college at the high school at Eivennore Kalis. Hut f he was hot destined to realize his ambitions for a university training. The Civil War came on, and. in August lxtiii. Mr. Smith enlisted in the l'.hli Maine Regiment,and went to the front. He was a good soldier, and sen 1 faithfully until the close of the war. After his return home Mr. Smith took a course in the Bryant iA- Stratton business college at Boston. Sub.-v iiuently he went to St. Iaiuis where lie taught school for several years. Her-.’ itt his vacations lie devoted himself to tile art. and soon became such an ex pert. that lie was aide to give up Ins school and devote his entire time and attention t this work. "At that lime." said Mr. Smith, "til South was smarting keenly from tilt* sores indicted by tile war. and the lie pie there were full of bitterness to wards (lie North. There was a larg and powerful Southern element m Missouri which strongly reflected this feeling. The result was that l was sub jected to many annoyances. I taught one term of school in a small settle ment. and a tough time l had (if it, too I succeeded, however, in finishing my school although 1 had to fight in order to do it: but you may lie certain that 1 didn't .apply for another position in that section. In ls7:i Mr. Smith made a trip cast, and married Miss Millie Woodwatd of Brunswick. the charming: lady who still continues to preside over In home. Two ehildrett. a Kiri, and a hoy, have been the result of this union, both of whom are still at home. After giving up the teaeher s railing Mr. Smith entered the employ of Ban tier A- Webber, one of the oldest piano houses in the West, whieh is still in active business, doing their tuning about the city, and surrounding coun try while iieeomitiK all the time more proficient in the art. He made quite a reputation for himself, and his services were in great demand both in and out of the pity. Moving east in 1ST8. he settled in Brunswick for about a year, when he moved to Augusta, where lie has since resided. During his residence here he has been honored by being three times elected to the city conned, holding the offices of commander of Seth K. Wil llams Post, 11. A. It., noble guard of Asylum Hodge, 1. i». t. F.. Patriarch of the Knenmiunent and for a long time secretary of Augusta Hodge of Ma sons. lie Is also a member of High land Hodge, A. I’. VV., the American Henelit Society, a member of the Ab naki chib, also of the Kennebec His torical Society. Mr. Smith lias always found great pleasure In tin* study of astronomy. He was at one time a member of t!:e Astronomic a! Society of the Pacific, hut has reeently dropped from the membership of the cluh, being now unable to attend the meetings. All who take the least interest in astron omy. know that Mr. Smith is one of the best posted men on the subject in the State, being the possessor of the set one! largest telescope in the State, the largest, which is owned at I’owdom college, being of the same make. Dur ing his spare hours, he has made a study of astronomy, and many an in teresting article upon the subject has been published from his pen. His pur suit of the science is merely for tin love of it. and for no other purpose. “fan any one learn to tune a piano?” j asked the Inquisitive. “Why yes. to a certain extent, an- swered Mr. Smith. “That is they can i learn the mechanical part, hut in order i to become successful they must h: ve a very tine ear. so that the least dlff* renec 1 in the vibrations of the notes can be j detected to a certainty. There are timers and tuners, upon the road, who under stand the mechanical part perfectly, and can tune to a certain extent, hut the em ployment of such men is usually very unsatisfactory. First class men do not usually make a practice of travelling about from state to state. “Many people, in fact, most people. d«> not understand how difficult it is to tune a piano to perfection, neither do they understand how It is done. Not long ago 1 was in a school at Gardiner, and upon being questioned about it. I explained matIvmiatleally the number of vibra tions in a certain key. the number of vi brations in the string an octave below, and how the difference in the two are di vided among the other notes in the oc tave. and how there are also live sharps that have to be arranged for. They mi- j derstuod the mathematical part all right, i but when it came to the practical part, j they were all at sea. as everyone is until j they have given the science their undi- vided attention." “Is there any more work in tuning an upright piano than there is in one of the j old-fashioned square ones?” “Yes. a great deal more, the tuning of an upright is about the same as the tun ing of a grand. In the grand, and the upright there are three strings to cadi note until the last few bass notes are reaehed when there ale two strings and 1 finally one. of course each of the three strings of a not*- must he tightened to the same tension, and that requires eonsid •-ruble work, and no small amount of e.are. Then in an upright the action ;s so much more complicated that it is quite ,i task to keep them in good order, and t good tuner pays as much attention to j the action, as to the wires. I suppose you know how we start the tuning of a i piano. \\'e usually have a tuning fork. and l*y it we tune the key to which it corresponds, and then the one an octave holow. from which the whole octave is tuned, and so on the whole is m..de to correspond. “I wonder th.it a piano stays in turn as long as it does in this changeable cli mate. With tin- fearful strain that there is on (mi‘Ii wire, and the readiness that tin- metals used respond to the changes of heat and cold, and by the way. how j many pounds do you suppose the strain I is. upon the frame in which the screws i that hold the strings are set?” and he i asked this with a peculiar smile, that 1 betokened an idea that the reporter would not come very near the right an swer. Now the reporter is not on tie most familiar terms with the piano, hut nevertheless lie decided to set the esti mate as high as possible, and so hazard ously said: Let me see. then? are M keys, and at about b'*a pounds to a key there would be about 12.000 pounds." “That is the highest estimate 1 have j received in years from people who don j know, and it is really a commendable i guess.” said Mr. Smith, “but still you are slightly out of the way. The averag* strain per key is ktu pounds, thus making about 1.000 pounds strain. Just notice; the truss of solid steel upon which the wires are strung, and knowing the im mense strain that it has to hear, do you wonder that it is built on the rugged lines that it is. and furthermore do you not wonder that the changes of heat and cold do not affect it more?” The newspaper man was too bewildered to wonder at anything. "Is it much of a job to tulle an organ? he asked. "Of comse it all depends upon the size, and also upon the make, but take the immense church organ for instance, and they often have to he tuned, many not being tunnt w hile all these valentines are be ing exchanged, do those who give and receive them, understand what the day commemorates, or why valentines are sent? Probably many suppose that St. Valentine is some such a fellow as Cupid, and this the 11th day of Febru ary. is tie- one set apart for him to his misehivous work. No. St. Valentine is, or rather was not any relation to-Cupid, but was a Christian martyr w ho was beheaded on February 11. in A. I ’J70, during the reign of Claudius, and how the peculiar observance came to be associated with him. no one knows, and probably ti-vr will. Tile custom of sending valentines had its origin in a heathen practice, connect- i ed with tin- worship of Juno on or about February It. so its association with St. Valentine was probably wholly accidental.
