the harvest fields, now feel the twnpes Of
terrible rheumatism; others run down by

DEATH OF j. k. WHITAKER.


John K. Whitaker, lifelong and
highly esteemed citizen OF this town. died
at his home here Wednesday, Sept. 9, at
the advanced age OF eighty i've years.
Mr.. Whitaker had been very well and
active for man OF his age, until about
six weeks before his death, when a mis-
step or slight fall while raspberrying at
North Lamoine brought on an attack of
an trouble, nseessitating an operation.
He recovered from toe operation sui.
ficiently to he removed to his home hen
pneumonia developed, which caused his
death.
Mr.. Whitaker united with the Baptist
church in this place at the age of fourteen
years; consequently his mem bership
covered period of seventy one years and
six days, longer period than any other
on the church record. He had always
been loyal member, and, SO long as he
was able, faithful attendant upon the
service. In former years his voice was
always heard in the church choir.
When this town was part of Trenton.
he served In the legislature, and was also
on the school board and one of the select
men. In ali these places he served with
ability and fidelity.
In his younger days he was successful
school teacher, being one OF that class
now almost extinct OF the old time
"schoolmasters', who "came and saw and
conquered. In later years he engaged in
farming, bringing to it the industry and
enc gy which characterized him.
Mr. whitaker is survived by eight chill
dren and many grandchildren. His wife
died five years ago. One son was given to
his country during the Civil war. The
children are Warren, Nathaniel, John and
Alden and Mrs. Mary Chenery, all of
whom live in the vicinity of Boston;
Stephen and Mrs. c. NJ. Stratton, OF
Lamoine, and Mrs. Edward Smith. of
East Lamoine.
All the children but one, Alden. were
present at the funeral services which we're
held Friday afternoon. In the absence OF
the pastor, Rev. j. P. Simonton, of Els.
worth. OBLIGATED.
A beautiful floral pillow and harp and

SOFTCORE

Like the running brook, the
red blood that flows through
the veins has to come from
somewhere.
The springs of red blood are
found in the soft core of the
bones called the marrow and
5ome say red blood also comes
from the spleen. Healthy bone
marrow and healthy spleen
ire full of fat.
SCOTS Emulsion makes new
blood by feeding the bone
narrow and the spleen with
he richest of all fats, the pure
cd liver oil.
For pale school girls and

Emulsion is a pleasant and rich
blood food. Itnot only feeds
the blood-making organs but
