THE "NEW LIGHT" is simple, practical, effective and economical ; produces a brilliant flame of 38-candle power, and places the luxury of a first-class light equal to gas or electricity, within the reach of all at a very moderate cost, whether in country, town or city.


For four years the "NEW LIGHT" System has been in operation in the East where more than 20,000 are in use, giving universal satisfaction, as is testified by hundreds of endorsements in possession of the Company.

MARKS' Patent Artificial Limbs.


WITH RUBBER HANDS AND FEET.


Are Natural in Action, Noiseless in Motion, and the Most Durable in Construction.


It is not unusual to see a farmer working in the fields with an artificial leg, or an engineer with hand on the throttle, or a conductor, brakeman, fireman, carpenter, mason, miner, in fact men of every vocation, wearing one or two artificial legs with rubber feet of Marks' Patents, performing as much labor as men in possession of all their natural members, earn- ing the same wages; in fact, experiencing little or no incon- venience.


Over 14,000 in use, scattered in all parts of the world. Emi_ nent surgeons and competent judges commend the Rubber


Foot and Hand for their many advantages. At every indus- trial exhibition where exhibited they have received the high- est awards. They are endorsed and purchased by the United States and foreign governments. A treatise, containing 430 pages, with 260 illustrations, sent FREE; also a formula for taking measurements by which limbs can be made and sent to all parts of the world with fit guaranteed.

PREFACE.


The first issue of the " MAINE STATE DIRECTORY AND GAZET- TEER " is herewith presented to the public. We believe the informa- tion contained in the Gazetteer Department will be found useful, especially that relating to the stage lines, as we know, by experience, that no similar work heretofore published can compare with this for thoroughness and reliability, it having been gathered by our agents in the towns and from official documents, and will be revised annually.


In the Business Department it is our intention to give every kind of business, however small, in each town, that would interest the pub- lic. If errors are detected, we shall be grateful to anyone calling our attention to them, that they may be corrected in our next issue.


For the generous patronage received we express our sincere :thanks. We remain


Very respectfully, UNION PUBLISHING COMPANY,
