Rheumatism Cannot Be
Cured Unless UriC=O
Is Used.
Sudden Deaths, Heart Failure and
Paralysis Are Cured By Poisonous
Uric and Rheumatic Acids.

The Rheumatic person is skeptical regarding
cure for Rheumatism and one can scarcely blame
him for being so. All the plasters and linments
combined never actually cured case of Rht IL.
matiSm. They may relieve it in one quarter, but
it is sure to break out somewhere else. The only
true way to cllre Rheumatism is to drive it from
the SYSTEM for - long as the Uric and Rheumatic
Acid remains in the blood, one is never entirely
free from the trouble. This is where the value of
Uric as permanent cure for Rheumatism
comes in. 1t seeks out the Rheumatic poison in
the blood, muscles and kidneys, renders it inert
and harmless and drives it out of the system.
This why Uric-O is such an admirable and effec
tive cure for rheumatism
The chief reason that Uric-O is such wonder
full cure for Rheumatism is, that it is designed
and prepared to cure Rheumatism and Rheuma-
tism only. 1t is composed of perfect antidotes
for the rheumatic acid poison in the system. That
is the secret of its wonderful success. Rheuma-
tsm simply cannot exist in persons system if
Uric 0 is used.
Uric . is sold by druggists at 75c. and 81 90 the
bottle, but if you still feel skeptical about its
efficacy you can test it free of charge by cutting
out this advertisement and sending same, togeth-
er with your name and address. also the name of
your druggist, to The Sn it'll Drug Company, 233
Smith Bldg Syracuse, N. Y, and they will send
you a sample bottle free. To persons who write
and say they have never used Uric-O and want
to test it thoroughly, and will agree to take it
Systematically according to directions, they fire.
quently give a gular 75c. bottle free.

THE AUGUSTA TRUST COMPANY.

In another column this morning the
Journal publishes d detailed statement
of the condition of the Augusta Trust
Company as shown by the examination
by a special committee from the board
of trustees, Oct. 81, 1907. This exami-
nation is in accordance with ii new law
passed by the last legislature, regulating
and guarding the management of
trust companies of Maine. The show
ing made in this statement is most
gratifying one and demonstrates anew
the strength and growth of this bank
ing Institution and the esteem in which
the people of Augusta and vicinity hold
it. During last year the gain in depos-
its has been 100000, a marvellous in
crease which speaks for Itself. The as
sets of the institution are now 81, S44,-
057.64 and it is the second largest trust
company in Maine. Ever since it was
established, almost IA years ago, this
institution has paid per cent on de-
posits and on its increasing list of de-
positors are not only people from all
over Maine but also people residing in
many other States in the Union.-Ken-

CAMDEN CANNING APPLES,

One of the busiest places in town at
present is the apple canning factory on
the wharf of the Camden Lumber Co.
The one-story building erected this sum-
mer by Thorndike & Hix, who operate
the factory, is little hive of industry.
Steam for the work is supplied from
the boiler of the Lumber Co. A force
of u women and three men are EN-
ployed, besides the superintendent, who
is U. G. Blackington of this place. APP
Piles are obtained from all the surround
ing country, several thousand bushels
having already been canned. The out
put of the factory is about 200 cases per
week, each case containing - one gal
Ion cans. A good quality of apples is
used and everything is kept neat and
clean. The product is called the Gold
Coin Brand. Shipments are made direct
to Boston. The factory has been run
ming several weeks and will continue
as long as apples can be obtained, prob
ably we'll into December. The pay of
this shop amounts to about 1925 per
week. AS the factory seems to be get
ting good start this fall, the building
will probably be enlarged next year and
considerable more business done.-Cam-
den Herald.

COMMON SODA ST. PER OUNCE.


Discovery Made in Investigation of Medf-
cine Labels in Vermont.
BURLINGTON, VT, Nov. 5. A catarrh
cure that retails for 81 per ounce in
Vermont drug stores has been found to
contain absolutely nothing but common
cooking soda.
Another medicine labelled to contain
the extract from Mexican beans was
found to be borax.
These are some of the results of the
analysis now being made at the Yer
mont State laboratory of hygiene of
medicines sold in Vermont and many
of them manufactured there.
The two above mentioned are manu-
featured outside of the State, but some
irregularities we're found in many of
the preparations put up in the State.
For instance, a medicine labelled to
contain 9 per cent. of alcohol really
contained 60 per cent. Another which
was labelled to contain 20 per cent. was
found to have but per cent. alcohol.
These analyses are made under the
direction of the State board of health
and are in connection with the pure
food law which went into effect in Yer
mont last June.
The board will give the manufactur-
ers time to change the labels before
prosecutions are filed against them.
Altogether about 25 samples have been
examined, a considerable portion of
them beng found wrongly labelled.

sea. SUSAN srErsoN LOST.

Her Crew had hard Experience. Reach
Land In the Yawlboat after Rowing IS
hours.
PORTLAND, Nov. 6. After pumping
"a hours, the crew of the Susan Stetson
of Bucksport, were yesterday forced to
leave their vessel to sink off the Maine
coast and take to their small boat.
After rowing IS hours, in which they
covered so miles, they arrived at Fetch
er's Neck life saving station, where
they were cared for yesterday morning.
The schooner, which was bound from
South Amboy for KenDebec with 22l
tons of coal sank so miles southeast of
Biddeford Pool and Captain Bulmer
and his crew of three men, working
the pumps for whole day, abandoned
their craft and in their yawl managed
to reach the life saving station last
night. Captain Bulmer and two sea-
men went through to Bangor from
Biddeford this noon, but the steward,
Andrew ellison, remained at Portland
before going to his home in Mansfield,
Mass.
When seen by the Advertiser he told
the story as followa: I've left South
Amboy one week ago Friday and had
fairly good weather until Sunday, when
a storm set in We were blown so
miles or more off shore, the vessel began
| leaking badly. We kept constantly at
| the pumps in order to keep the craft
afloat. Monday night. the water gained
SO fast that myself and the other mem
bers of the crew were nearl y exhausted.

the other mems, SoNWe were forced to
take to the small row boat.
Putting supplies and compass
! aboard, we left the vessel and had not
| gone far when she sank.
The yaWl boat was a small one and
rather old and several times we thought
we should never reach land, but with

and after is hours we came in sight of

us and came to our rescue.
They towed US ashore and supplied
us with beds for the night.

said Mr.. Gibson and he showed the
reporter his wrists which with his
hands were badly swollen. Otherwise
from this, he was feeling well, as a good
nights sleep at the life saving station
had done him world of good.
The Susan Stetson was an old craft
| having been built in 1867 at Damaris
Gotta. She was owned by W. d. Emer
son of Bucksport and was 143 gros:
tons, SO feet long, 81 feet beam and

case, minus also the drawing-out which
the promoters wish for themselves The
expressed purposes back Of this project
arc an increase Of the maple sugar indus

diluting the product, as practiced by
wholesalers.
Both Of these purposes are worthy.
There certainly ought to DO more inter.

some neana ought also 10 be devised To
prevent interruptions people from selling

above all. impraotioable TO conduct a
wholesale sugar making industry Of this
sort, TO cover the entire state Of YER

The promoters Of this scheme tell MS
that they expect TO cover the field with
either twenty five or thirty stations, to
which farmers shall bring their sap.
That would make about two to every
county. Take for instance Washington
county. There might be one station in
Barre and another in Morotown. AT the
best calculation, then, some farmers
would have to carry the sap distance
Of six to twelve miles in order to reach
the nearest boiling station. No more
than two sap.holders could be carried at
one time. and the contents Of them
would be mere dribblo Of the outflow
Of their trees. That would necessitate
frequent trips and to prevent the sap
from souring, the trips would have 70
