OLD HOME WEEK.
Governor Hill SAYS 1t Has Come to
Stay.

Yes, | think Old Home week is here
to stay" said Gov. John +. Hill, the
other day, in Portland, "and the out
look is that there will be many Wis
itors in the State during the obser-
vance. this summer. The invitations
ing circulated widely
GOV. Hill said that the Old Home
week was now resolving itself into it's
proper form as is evidenced by the fact
that instead of having a celebra ton in
some particular city, that each town
Will be ready to receive it's former
children in a truly characteristic and
hospitable manner
1t is only proper" he said. that
each city and town should have its
own observance instead of sending all
its people to Portland or some other
city for a centennial celebration. If
old residents come back to renew
friendships and revisit scenes CT their
it is only fair that we should
be at home to receive them instead
of leaving them to go elsewhere to
have our observances.
There's no doubt in my mind that
the Old Home week idea is an excel
lent one and it seems to me If it is
observed in the right way ana in the
proper spirit that it will bring more
former Maine people back to their
homes each year"

The mayor ana aldermen, to whom
was referred the petition of the Au-
gusta, Winthrop & Gardiner Railway
for an extension Of its turnout on
Water street, met on the premises,
yesterday, to consider the matter
The officers looked the ground over
ana decided to grant the petition. The
turnout extends along Water street
from a point in front of the post office
by Market square. This turnout is
designed to allow the passing of the
cars from Gardiner and those from
Togus without it being necessary for
them to wait, the one for the other
at Bridge street. 1t is thought this
arrangement will serve the public much
more satisfactorily than formerly.

Many Of Our Boys and Girls
aN Suffering This Month
From the After Effects Of
Winter Grippe.
Wise Parents Provide
Paine's Celery Compeund
For Their Loved Ones.
The Wondrous Medicine Quickly
Expels all Germ Poisons from
the Blood and Fortifies the
Weak and Run Down
System. ..t

A busy city physician, enjoying a
large annual income, remarked the
other day that a host of young people
boys and g.rls-were suffering this
month from the after effects Of win
ter grippe.
Dear parents, have any of your
children suffered frcm an attack of
the cruel monster grippe, during the
past winter months? Are your boys
and girls irritable, feverish, pale, OF
weak? Have they cold and clammy
limbs? Is the blood watery, impure.
or sluggish? Is the appetitepoor and
digestion weak? Has the rose tint Of
health faded from the cheeks? If
any of these conditions are noted, be
assured the dregs OF deadly grippe are
implanted in the system.
If your children are notblithesome,
happy, boisterous, and strong in May
their condition calls for prompt action
on your part. Their future-health
and physical happiness or suffering
and early dcath-is in your hands,
dear parents, and you alone are re-
,sponsible to Heaven and the commu-
nifty of which you form part
When winter grippe has implanted
seeds OF virulent diseases, the first and
most important work is to expel
from the blood every trace of poison.
This is always successfully accom-
plished by the use of Paine's Celery
Compound.
This marvellous medicine after pur-
flying the foul and stagnant blood,
acts as u nerve food. 1t builds up
the nervous system and nourishes all
the bodily tissues.
Boys and girls with such a start in
life as they always receive from Palne's
Celery Compound, grow up as sturdy
as forest oaks, they revcl in strength
and true life; they are fair to behold:
they make the men and women most
needed by our country. DO yourp part
this month, dear parents, withprompt-
ness and honesty, and rest assured
Paine 5 Celery Compound will not fail
in its grand work of health building.
