He considers himself now quite cured and in excellent physical condition. “Among all the greatly advertised medicines for kidnoy and bladder trouble there Is nothing which equals Peruna. I suffered for several years with this trouble, spent hundreds of dollars on doctors and medicine and all to no purpose, until I took Peruna. “One bottle did me more good than all the others put together, as they only poisoned my systen). Peruna cured me. I used it for four months before a com plete cure was accomplished, but am truly grateful to you. The least I can do in return is to acknowledge the merits of Peruna.” People Who Object to Liquid Medicines Should Buy Peruna Tablets

The fire department was called out yesterday forenoon by an alarm from box 65, near the shoe factory on Gage street, which was rung in at 9.55 and was due to a brisk grass fire on the west side of the railroad track and a short distance above the shoe factory. The fire was probably due to a spark from a passing train and as a number of the houses on the east side of Gage street set near the top of the bank the situation was for a few moments de cidedly serious. The prompt arrival of the firemen however prevented the fire from getting in under the buildings and causing quite an amount of dam age. The bank was thoroughly wet down as also was the Eaton shoe fac tory and some of the other buildings in that vicinity, to guard against fur ther damage.

Gray. N Joshua R. Gray, an old and honored citizen of Augusta, died at his home on Sewall street, yesterday afternoon, after a week’s sickness with pneu monia. Mr. Gray was born in Vassal boro in 182"). He attended the common school and academy there, and ac quired the carriage maker's trade in his father's shop. He worked at his trade in Dorchester, Mass., a number of years and then returned to his old home. He removed to Augusta in 1869 and was employed on the patterns and other fine work in the ear shops of the Maine Central R. R. In 1884 he removed to Duluth. Minn., and four years ago, having retired from busi ness, returned again to Augusta, the city of his love, where he has since quietly resided. Fifty-seven years ago he married Almira C. Mitchell of Dix rnont, who survives. They have had two children. May died at the age of 20, and Charles M„ who is a business man in Chicago, and who was able to reach his father's bedside just before the spirit took its final flight. Two brothers, William and Charles Gray of Vassalboro, also survive. It has been a pleasant sight to the neighbors and the beloved ones of the charmed circle of home, to witness this devoted couple, hand in hand, facing the western sun, not with thoughts of coming night, but inspired with the joy of the morning of eter nity. Their united, peaceful, happy lives have been a perpetual benedic tion to the community. But “one shall be taken, and the other left.” In his later years Mr. Gray led a quiet and contemplative life. He was a Republican in politics and a Metho dist in religious sentiment. He was made a Mason in old Vassalboro Lodge and never forgot or laid aside his obli gations. He was domestic in his tastes, very unselfish and thoughtful of others. He liked to dw'ell upon those eternal verities, which though unseen are the most real; and it seems but the other day when he spoke about these things to the writer of these lines, little dreaming that his unclouded vision was so soon to be hold the Lord in His glory. The time of the funeral will be an nounced later. HOME MISSION WORKERS. Deaconesses of Megiddo Mission Now In Augusta to Carry on Their Work. Two deaconesses of an order called “Tlie Megiddo Mission Band" arrived in Augusta Tuesday. They are here in the interest of bringing the home nearer to God, to be of some service in tlie uplifting and betterment of mankind, and to influence so far as is possible by them a more earnest, helpful study of the Bible. “Megiddo-' is a word of Hebrew origin, signifying "God is in this place with a band of soldiers.” The mission band is ardent and zealous in the work in which for years they have been un ceasingly engaged working in most of the larger cities of this country. The work is undenominational. An interesting feature of the work is the large mission steamboat called the "Megiddo" which they have oper ated the length of the Mississippi river, the Ohio river and their tributaries so far as navigation allowed, stopping at innumerable places and carrying on their work for the cause of Christ with great success in every place. The members of the Megiddo Mis sion believe in a thoroughly practical religion, one that will make the home a miniature heaven on earth; one that will affect the daily life to such a de gree that people will never speak cross words to friend or foe; and they want their life and example to be a blessing and help to others; for they believe that “example is stronger than pre cept.-' They believe that sometime in the near future Christ will return to this earth to establish a reign of uni versal peace, when God's glory shall fill the earth as the waters cover the sea. The ladies who are 'here will do house to house work. Mrs. Clarence Mackay was recently re-elected a member of the school board of Koslyn. B. I., without any opposition. She has proved a most desirable member of the board, having made a number of improvements in the buildings and done everything pos sible to bring the teachers up to the best standards and to make them and the children comfortable.

The Connecticut State Agriculture experiment Station publishes the fol io wing about adulterated spices: “Probably no class of products ha; been so commonly and grossly adulter ated as ground spices. Examinatior of numerous samples at this statioi during the few years following lSOil when the pure food law went into ef fect, showed that from one-quarter u one-third of the spices sold in Con necticut were adulterated. Since the annual retail cost of the spices sold in the State during these years, accord ing to a conservative estimate, was about $200,000—fully $50,000 of this amount must have been expended for fraudulent mixtures. One of the commonest adulterants is ground eocoanut shells, of 'Which, so it Is stated, several hundred tons have been annually prepared for mixing with spices in a single American city The shells, without further treatment, resemble closely ground allspice and are a common admixture of this spire. A clove adulterant is prepared by roasting the eocoanut shell powder sufficiently to give it the desired color while for use in pepper, it is reduced to a black powder by charring. In the latter case a gray color is often secured by the addition of a light col ored material, such as flour, or olive stones and the pungency re-enforced by a small amount of Cayenne. Wheat flour, middlings and bran, ground biscuit, white corn (maize) meal and cornstarch, rice flour and -bran, buckwheat flour and middlings, bean meal, pea meal, cassava (tapioca) starch, ground olive stones, sawdust, and sulphate, of lime (plaster of gyp sum) are common light colored adul terants. These are of a suitable color for white and black pepper, but for cayenne pepper are often colored with red coa'.-tor dyes and for mus tard are commonly used in conjunction with turmeric or some other yellow dye stuffs. Other make-weights are buckwheat hulls (for blaek pepper) ground screenings, linseed meal, rice bran and mustard hulls. White pepper and black pepper are products of the same plant, the berry in the former case being deprived of its outer coating. The so-called pep per shells containing more or less ad hering dirt, obtained as a by-product in the prepaartion of white pepper, are extensively used as an adulterant for black pepper. Clove stems are of ten ground with cloves to the detriment of the latter, since they contain only about one-quarter as much oil of cloves, which Is the valuable flavoring constituent. Ground clove stems are also frequently substituted for ground allspice. The dried residues, obtained in the manufacture of ginger extract and ginger ale, are mixed with ground ginger. Exhausted cloves, a by-product in the manufacture of oil of cloves, are also utilized. Mace is sometimes mixed with Macassar mace or with Bombay mace, the former be ing inferior and the latter worthless. “Excessively dirty spices containing percentages of ash and sand above those prescribed by the standards are also classed as adulterated.’’ Nothing could show more clearly the importance of avoiding bulk spices and all doubtful brands; the safe plan is to always insist upon havine Slade’s Spices and Cream Tartar in sealed cartons bea.ring the name “Slade’s”; these have been tested by the various state chemists and alwavs found absolutely pure and of the high est strength.

Getting the right start for the day's work often means the difference be tween doing things in wholesome com fort, or dragging along half dead all day. There's more in the use of proper food than many people ever dream of more’s the pity. "Three years ago I began working in a general store,” writes a man. “and between frequent deliveries and more frequent customers. I was kept on my feet from morning till night. "Indigestion had troubled me for some time, and in fact my slight breakfast was taken more from habit than appetite. At first this in sufficient diet was not noticed much, but at work it made me weak and hungry long before noon. "Yet a breakfast of rolls, fried foods and coffee meant headache, nausea and kindred discomforts. Either way I was losing weight and strength, when one dav a friend suggested that I try a ‘Grape-Nuts breakfast.’ “So I began with some stewed fruit, Grape-Nuts and cream, a soft boiled egg, toast, and a cup of Postum. By noon I was hungry but with a healthy, normal appetite. The weak languid feeling was not there. "My head was clearer, nerves stead ier than for months. Today my stomach is strong, my appetite nor mal. my bodily power splendid and head always clear. “There's a Reason.” Name given by Postum Co.. Battle Creek, Mich.
