The steam mill of the Augusta
Lumber Co. will be started up for the
season this morning and from now
out there will be busy times on the
east side of the river. A great many
improvements have been made at the
mill during the past winter and it is
in first-class condition in every way.
Men were at work yesterday stringing
the mill boom. There are 1900 logs
piled just above the mill to commence
work upon and enough more above the
kennebec dam to keep things moving
until the drive gets along.

In consequence of the many COM
plants which have been made to the
authorities regarding the sale of cigar
cites to minors, cards are now being
printed bearing a copy of Section %
of Chapter 129 of the Revised Statutes
which reads as follows: whoever, by
himself, his clerk, servant or agent,
directly or indirectly sells, offers for
sale, has in his possession with intent
to sell. or gives away, to any person
under the age Of q years, any cigar
cite, shall be punished by fine not eX-
ceeding $50, or by imprisonment not
exceeding go days. Trial justices and
municipal and police courts shall have
jurisdiction of offenses arising under
this section" The cards will be placed
in stores where cigarettes are sold and
it is thought that the warning thus
given will be needed.

Now that the winter is supposed to
be ended and the sand on the city side
walks is no longer needed in aiding
pedestrians to keep their feet, it
would seem that a great good might be
done and much labor saved to the Au-
gusta housewives if the property hold
ers along the different thoroughfares
would see to it that the sidewalk in
front of their promises was swept
clean of the sand that is on it. In
some places the good work has been
carried out, but in others it would be
much better if the good example set
had been followed, 1t were much bet
ter to have the sand swept into the
street than to have it carried in onto
the carpet.

FREE MEDICAL ATTENTION.

Every sick person who is in need of medical attention Is invited by those well known specialists, the Radio-Chemic physicians, to call at their office for a free examination, consultation and advice. It must be understood that the Radio-Chemic magnetic treatments are no experi- ments, neither are the remedies used by the X-Ray doctors. They have been tried and proven for many years, and hence the great success that attends their use. Every new discovery, each new appliance for treating the sick, and the newest remedies are all used by the Radio Chemic physicians.
 Those who have neglected to ac- cept the generous offer of free ex. animation should not delay longer. Go see them at once.
