A Good Day to Celebrate.

Labor day. a day in which the
great hosts that comprise the vast
majority of the people in this country
may feel that they have right
to participate in Surely it deserves
to be celebrated with as much
of dignity and as much of enjoyment
as any holiday we have. This year of
all, when the gloom of the days of en-
forced idleness, the days when pockets,
that once knew the jingle of more than
enough to provide for home, not I'M
commonly contained not enough for the
overdue bills, this year when the tide
has turned and worl. for all is arrived
or is near at hand, this is the year to
celebrate Labor day gloriously if ever.
That's what is to be done in Augusta
and Hallowell today.

venezuela's President.

The indications that General Ignacio
Andrade is to be the successor of Gen
eral Crcspo, the present chief executive
of that country, is good news if We
may judge from the formers reputa~
ton. Crespo has been an excellent
president but is not candidate for re-
election. Andrade of all the candi-
dates now seeking the office is believed
to be the most worthy as well as the
most likely to follow in the footsteps
of Crespo, which is especially desirable
at this critical time in Venezuelan
affairs OF course the United States
when it insisted upon arbitration of
the boundary question assumed no re-
sponsibility for the government of that
country but it will be gratifying to see
the excellent administration of the past
four. years continued. This is not what
has usually happened in that country
the succeeding president as a rule be-
ing an enemy of the one he succeeds
and determined to undo what the pre-
vious one has done General Andrade
is an educated, broad minded man.
He has Travelled in Europe and this
country, is an advocate of progress ami
understands the most approved
methods for encouraging it.

had worked butte hard. When my
monthly period came on, flowed very
badly. The doctor gave me medicine,
but 1t did me no good. He said the
fow must be stopped if possible, and
he must find the cause of my trouble.
Upon examination, he found there
was Fibroid Tumor in my womb, and
gave me treatment without any benefit
whatever. About that time lady
called on me, and recommended Lydia

said she owed her life to it, l

and found everything all right The

ache was gone.--MRs. b. A. LOMBARD,

the clerk and handed him EGO note to
put in the safe. Asking for it next day,
he was thunderstruck when the functionafy
to whom he had given the money coolly
denied any recollection of the matter,
whereupon the countryman went to law
yer. "Get another $50 note, said the
lawyer, "and go, accompanied by friend,
back to the hotel Apologize to the clerk
for your mistake; say 1t was defective
memory; attribute it to observation-disclosures;
deposit the second eco note in the presence
of your friend and come back to me. The
mystified ruralist observed instructions to
the very letter "Now," said the lawyer,
ego back alone to the clerk and ask him
for your ego note. Knowing that your
friend saw him receive 1t, he will give you
back the second one. Then take your
friend with you next day, approach the
clerk, ask him boldly for that ego note,
and, as there was no witness to your re-
ceipt of the second note, lie will be forced
to return that also" The ruse proved com
pletely successful much TO the gratli1ca-
