The increase of stomach troubles in
Augusta has led Bowditch, Webster e.
Co. to take effective measures to com
bat the disease.
They have the local agency for
Mi-o-na stomach tablets. and in order
to induce people suffering with weak
stomach or indigestion to use the
remedy, offer to supply it with the
distinct understanding that money will
be refunded in every case where it
does not cure.
Mi-o-na is not mere digestive, but
an absolute strengthened and builder
up of the whole digestive tract. If you
suffer with headaches, giddiness. palpi-
tation, bad taste in the mouth.
nervousness. coated tongue, distress
after eating, use Mo-o-na and see how
quickly these symptoms of weak
stomach will disapapear
The remedy strengthens the muscular
walls of the stomach and increases the
flow of gastric juices SO that nourish-
ment is extracted from the food and
the refuse is expelled without the aid
of purgative or laxative medicines.
Strengthen the stomach and make 1t
do it's own work by using Mi-o-na.
Do not fuss and nurse it along by
digestive tablets that do no lasting
good Make a complete cure of your
stomach troubles and replace weak
ness with strength by using Mi-o-na-
Remember that Bowditch. Webster
& Co., give guarantee to refund the
money unless it cures. They take all

Continued from Page One.)

fresh weather shape, the wind was
strong from the south and the condi-
tions were pronounced very fair.
For the first speed trials the Island
err was sent over the shortest course,
the distance between the statute and
nautical miles. These trips were made
under different conditions of steam
pressure and number of revolutions
just as those later were made over the
mile course.
Capt. Bob" and the engineers didn't
hurry her at first. but just logged
along. but by the time the 18th and
final run was made the new Islander
was humming and it was case of
congratulations all around.
It really was pretty sight and one
that ought to have been seen by every
lover of the Islands, for the new and
handsome craft spun around on her
heel and dashed away on her course
just as though she knew that the
whole Kennebec people was awaiting
good news from her trial trip.
Well, she made good!
Nearly all the men aboard were ex-
perts in their lines and they knew
what lHey were tanning dpoal NIeH
they said:
"rhe Islander is all right"
The rest of the party, not experts in
anything but enthusiasm, added their
mite TO the general opinion and it was
a unanimous vote that
"rhe Islander is all right"
The speed runs over the courses fin
ished, to the satisfaction of all, then
came a series of runs about the har-
Dor in what proved to be decidedly
chopDy sea and right well did the craft
behave, calling praise from even t!!rsH
who had left their sea legs at home.
The Islander is as buoyant and light
as a feather and as dry as your piazza
on a sunshiny day.
Around and around Captain Bob"
circled the boat and then headed her
for the ocean. 1t really was somewhat
boisterous for fishing and some of the
party looked carefully for good grips
on stanchions or hand rails. But after
a good swing down the harbor the
captain sent her nose into the Little
Shecpscot and made the grand rounds
over, in and through.
The trip was one that would delight
you, summer or winter, and under the
excitement of all these tests it was
one never to be forgotten by a Ken
nehccker.
Mr. Adams and his son. the builders,
were delighted. so much so that they
thought not of going home but kept
on to Faith
And that arrival at Bath was worth
going the whole trip to see and hear.
Everyone in the Shipping City knows
Captain Bob" and everyone there
has the kindest feelings for their up
river neighbors. so it was a continual
blast of salutes and answers for the
whole length of the river trent. Sa-
lutes from whistles, waving of hands,
caps, hats handkerchicfs and flags for
as far as you could see and Captain
"Rob" at last had to admit that his
arm was tired.
| The Islander proves herself sue
cess, a credit to her builders. her own
ers and her friends. She will carry
you to the Islands in express time and
| apple pie order and return you to your
homes in the same time and equally
