FINE LOOKING GIRLS SHOULD
MOVE AWAY FROM FULTON

Since the Woowmen head office was
removed from Fulton it appears that
the men folks have all blown the vii
lage and left the girls behind. The Full
ton journal seeks to console the mai
dens thusly:
Fulton is blessed with a number of
fine looking girls. To be sure some of
them have passed the age of ''sweet
sixteen" and can no longer be termed
chickens although they are ducks all
right. The fact that they have not
married the first callow and moon
struck youth who was captivated by
their charms is proof of their good
sense and sound judgment. Because a
girl has not married young and grown
faded and aged before her time, il is
no proof that she is not nice and good
and intelligent. but rather it is evil
dence that she is sensible and knows
her worth. Still there are some who
like to rail at the old maids as they
are pleased TO call the substantial and
refreshing typical American girls who
swing along heart whole and fancy
free. arayed in good clothes. and al
together attractive and companions
able. They may be close onto the 80
year mark, but you would not think it
by their looks"

APurRative Pleasure.

If you ever took DeWitt's Little
Early Risers for biliOusness or con-
stipation you know what purgative
pleasure is. These famous little pills
cleanse the liver and rid the system
of all bile without producing unpleas-
ant effects. They do not grippe, sicken
or weaken, but give tone and strength
to the tissues and organs involved.
W. II. Howell, of Houston, Texas.
says: 'No better pill can be used
than Little Early Risers for constipa-
ton. sick headache, etc."

The eennlns V. Counterfelt.

The genuine is always better than
a counterfeit, but the truth of this
statement is never more forcibly re-
allied or more thoroughly apprecia-
ted than when you compare the gen
uine DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve with
the many counterfeits and worthless
substitutes that are on the market.
w. S. Ledbetter, of Shreveport, La,
says: after using numerous other
remedies without benefit, one box of
DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve cured

REPORT OF WEATHER BUREAU
More ofsthe Same Said to be Due
Here During To-
Night.

Jack Frost registered III Rock ISL
and last night, but so stealthly did he
come and go that no cognizance of his
visit appears in the official records of
NJ. Sherier states that the closest the
chilly visitor got to this locality, ac-
cording to the reports that have come
to his office, is Dubuque, Iowa.
If you happened TO be up this morn
ing about o'clock, healthy hour, by
the way, to rise, and at that hour
when many of the city's strong men
with rosy cheeks and smiles that
won't come. off may be seen taking to
the hills for their daily bread, you
would have noticed white covering
on the roofs of the buildings about
the city. That was frost. 1t was not
dew, as you might think. 1t was the
real article, but it did not descend
to terra firma, finding that the heat
from the ground afforded too warm a
reception, and stuck to the high
places until chased by the mornings
rays.
Therefore it is not believed any
damage was lntlcteu on vegetation.
The temperature dropped to 40 during
the night. and Observer Sherier says
if it had gone about three degrees
lower we would have been visited by
IA frost that would have done consider
able harm.
OmcIRI Report.
Here is what is found in the latest
dope sheet from the weather bureau:
The eastern storm is central over
western New York. while the area of
high pressure still covers the territory
from the Mississippi valley westward
to the Pacific slope.
Showers have fallen in western
Iowa. the lower Mississippi valley, and
over the east. Cloudy conditions still
prevail over Iowa but elsewhere in
the upper Mississippi and Missouri val
leys it is clear.
1t is colder from the lake region
southwark to the gulf and low tenn
peratures continue over the region to
the westward. 4 light frost occurred
at Dubuque and freezing weather is
still noted over a large portion of the
upper Missouri valley.

THE STRIKE ENDED.
AmicabIe Arrangements Between Vas.
salboro Mill and Viewers.

North Vassalboro, Me-, Feb. s.
(SpeciaD.-The strike of the spinners
and weavers in the mill of the Ameri-
can Wooden Co., which has been in
progress for about week, was salts
factorily settled, Saturday afternoon
and evening. The grievance of the
spinners had been previously settled
and they have been ready for work
several days, and now the weavers have
settled theirs and will go in again.
Monday morning, when the whole mill
will be put in active operation once
more.
A conference lasting about four hours
was held in the mill Office, Saturday
afternoon, the company being repre-
sented by General Agent Chaplin, Man
aEer Jealous and Superintendent Will
liams, and the weavers by their COM
mittee, M. F. Mcnamara being chair
man. The committee found Mr.. Char pin
to be very genial and perfectly will
ing to give their requests frank and
just treatment. He broke the ice at
the start and soon had things moving
along rapidly and smoothly.
The different phases were taken up
in turn and abundant opportunity af-
forded for a complete discussion. I'm
der this policy the whole matter was
thoroughly aired and an understand
ing reached.
One of the grievances of the weavers
has been regarding the teaching of
green men to weave, their request be-
ing that no one be taught who has
N@tl1 or
was agreed at the conference that dur
ing the present year but 10 new men
shall be taught.
The matter of sample making was al
so discussed and Mr.. Chaplin agreed to
an increase for this kind of work. He
submitted the following schedule OF
wages: ANY person earning $36 in four
weeks shall have 5 per cent. of s36 In
addition; $37. 6 per cent; 1913, per
cent. s3a, 8 per cent; $40. 10 per cent;
SAL, II per cent; $i2, IL per cent; $43, il
per cent; $44, IA per cent; $45, Is per
cent. s46, Is per cent: SAT, II per cent;
s4s, Is per cent; $40, 10 per cent; and
$50, 20 per cent"
All work that will be under one and
one quarter runs will be awarded an
increase of 10 per cent.
A meeting of the weavers was held
at o'clock in the evening and these
schedules and grants were accepted by
the men as a whole and the strike was
over. Later in the evening the union
of the weavers Was finally perfected
This satisfactory settlement of the
strike caused general rejoicing in the
village as the mill is rs only industry
Of any size and it's principal support so
that to have it shut down for any
length of time would cause great incon.
vepience. 1t is believed that there Will
now be better understanding all
round and that there Will be no more
trouble for some time to come.
