went to Austin Thursday, by invita- ion
from Bonnet lodge, Knights of Pythias, to
visit their lodge and confer the amplified

every one is loud in praise of
the most cordial welcome given them by

WInsIow Packing Company.

The Kennebec Journal hopes that the af-
fairs Of the Winslow Packing Company will
be speedily settled upon the basis offered by
General Mattocks at the creditors meeting
Tuesday. The blow which came to the COM
pany by its suspension last winter was in
evitable, and 1t carried with it great loss to
many farmers and almost jeopardized the
great corn packing industry of the State,
one which brings more cash to our farmers
in single year than any other farm product
excepting hay. Gen. Mattocks lost his en-
tire private property by the suspension, and
now offers, by the aid of friends, to pur-
chase the claims of the old company and
start the factories again another spring. He
is gentleman in whom the farmers of the
State have confidence, and the journal de-
sres that he may be given an opportunity to
again put the affairs of the twenty-five or
thirty factories of the old company in. sue

stantly. He began to run down In weight, could
not eat anything. suffering from an allgone feel

that in the morning he would be so weak he
could scarcely stand. He together with all OF his
friends thought he had quick consumption and
that was only matter of time with him, the
doctors called. shook their heads, and did but
little for him. A friend hearing of his trouble
sent him paper containing an advertisement Of

and placed himself nnder their care that was one
month ago. Mr.. Daniels returns today well
