Ballard's Suow Liniment is praised
for the good it does. A sure cure
for Rheumatism and all pains.
Wright W. Loving, Grand Tunc

lard's Snow Liniment, last winter,
for Rheumatism and can recommend
it as the best liniment ou the mark
et. 1 thought, at the time I was
taken down with this trouble, that
it would be a week before I could
get about, but on applying your
Liniment several times during the
night, I was about in 48 hours and
well in three days." Sold by St.

A number have expressed them
selves that St. Johns should organ
ic and support u base ball club. A
inlet canvass is being made and
something tangible may develop.
ascal Hill has offered to donate
the use of his fine grounds. Besides
le has offered to fence the lot and
provide an amphitheater. A well
rgauiml club would prove a good
advertisement for the city and be
the means of attracting large crowds
to this place.
Here is a puzzle that puzzles
everybody: Take the number of
your living brothers, double the
amount, add to it three, multiply
by five, add to it the number of
your living sisters, multiply the
result by ten, add the number of
eaths of brothers, and subtract
50 from the result. The right
figure will be the number of deaths,
the middle will be the number of
iviug sisters, and the left will show
the number of living brothers. Try
it and see.
Very few who hear the hum of
the saws and see the clouds of

good saw mill man says between
1500 and S2ooo are required each
day to make the wheels go 'round.

In the report of the sums donated
by the various individuals aud soci
eties to the Reading Room Associa
tion, published in The Review last

Ou several buildings In the city
the get-somethiiig-for-iiotliiug jk-o
pie have datiU'd numerous hideous
looking signs for a Portland needle
aud-elephaut house. A man who
allows a foreign concern to use his
property as 1111 advertisement to
draw trade does himself and St.
Johns an injustice. The business
houses of St. Johns nre here to
supply the needs of the city, and
they can do so if given the opjior
Utility at lower prices than the
outsiders can. Order these obnox
ious signs removed, Get in Hue,

sorry for it.
Notwithstanding the fact that
summer is a few weeks away ojieu
cars are run daily ou the St. Johns
line. In the good old summer time
when the eek-a boo waists are
comfortable the air-tight box cars
will be provided. But right now
when wraps are worn, closed cars
with several windows broken out
aud open cars are placed 011 the
run. Riding ten long miles in one
of these cars shriveled up in an
overcoat with an icicle, or what
looks like an icicle, hanging on to
the end of one's nose is not pleasant.
The Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals should take a
hand in the game. If this cannot
be done let the hat be passed aud
new panes of glass le provided to
replace the broken ones in the
closed cars.
