MAINE MEMORIAL TO BLAINE
One of the events that will mark
the centennial year of Maine as a
member of the American union of
states will be the long delayed and
final welcome home, as the Kenne
bec Journal says, of James G. Blaine".
the greatest figure that Maine has
contributed to American public life
For twenty-seven years the mon
ument of Blaine In Rock Creek cem
etery in Washington has been a
hickory, tree, , whose broken top
speaks of storms, while at the foot
of his grave is a white stone and on
it only the initials, "J. G. B." He

the remains are to be transferred in
June. The site is one to which Mr
Blaine frequently went on Sunday
rambles and the view that it com
mands is said to have few equals in
all the length of the "imperial Ken
nebec" that Mr. Blaine, so much
loved and praised. A part of the
memorial will be a stone seat, from
which the beautiful view may be ob
served at leisure. The spot is just
above and adjoining the Augusta
cemetery, in ' which the first child
of Mr. and Mrs. Blaine, who died in
infancy, is buried. With the body
of Mr. Blaine will be brought also
that of Mrs. Blaine and their son
Walker.
It is easy to understand the state
pride and affection that have deter
mined the final disposition of the
remains of the state's most distin
euished citizen, and these long de-
layed honors by tomb and shaft and
nark to the memory of "Blaine,
main. Rlaine of Maine", whose
name1 is enrolled with those of that
certainly to have designated to the
presidency, but who, with all their
,nciT,trn,-ihfd services, their superb
qualities of leadership and devotion
inspiring charters failed of the

BURGLARY CASE. IS
STILL A MYSTERY
No Trace Has Been Found of Parties
Who Entered McElwain Store and
Made Away With Booty
From Saturdays Dally. .
All efforts to get a trace of the
person or persons who made the suc
cessful haul at the B. A: McElwain
store on Thursday night, has proven
fruitless and the parties that com
mitted the act are still at large.
The loss sustained by Mr. McEl
wain will run in "the neighborhood
of $1,000 as he has discovered by a
check of the stock the theft of many
articles that were not missed at the
time of the robbery, and including
the loss of a number of watches
which had been left out of the safe
at the closing time Thursday.
The robbing of the store makes
the tbjrd burglary that Mr. McEl
wain has been through as on two
previous, occasions he has had visits
from the unwelcome night callers
but in this case his loss is not as
heavy as on previous occasions, ai
one of the robberies Mr. McElwain
was sleeping in a small room ad
joining the store room he was then
occupying and the robber on that
occasion proceeded to give Bert a
dash of dope that put him in dream
land while the visitors proceeded to
carry off the greater part of hw
stock, so that-on this occasion he can
feel very fortunate in not suffering
a greater loss than he did.

have to take to my bed and be laid

"Finally I got a bottle of Tanlac

depends quite as much on correct lubrication as
on suitable fuel.
It is quick, complete combustion that generates
power in a motor; but it is lubricating oil that
supplies the seal which insures full compression
of the fuel charge and which holds the explosive
gases behind the pistons and makes them work.
Polarine does this effectively and more. Be
tween engaging parts and in bearings it maintains
a protective oil cushion that insures quiet; smooth
operation with minimum vibration, wear and
strain. Keeps motors fit the year round and
makes overhauling and repair bills-small.

How Diphtheria is Contracted
One often hears the expression,
'My child caught a severe cold which
developed into diphtheria," when the
truth was that the cold had simply
left the little one' particularly sus
ceptible to thegvandering diphtheria
germ. If your child hasa cold when
diph-theria is prevalent you should
take him out of school and keep him
off the street until fully recovered,
as there is a hundred times more
danger of his taking diphtheria when
he has a cold. When Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy is given it quickly
ures the cold and lessens the dan
ger of diphtheria or any other germ
disease being contracted.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
The great Denexit derived from the
use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
has been gratefully acknowledged by
many. Mrs". Benjamin F. Blakeney,
Decatur. 111., writes, "Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy is by far the best
