ture welfare of st. Johns when its
citizens get together and cast all
partisanship, strife, factional differ
ences and turmoil aside and join

mass meeting in the Woodmen Hall
Monday evening did more to
strengthen the feeling OF good fellow

gether with one common purpose in
view than anything that has yet
taken place in this city. And there
can be no question that the people
of 81. Johns was well represented at

walks of life were there, and If any

since spring Is opening mp in good
shape, Il would be wise to look wcll
TO the quality of the meat you are
using. A good diet guarantees good
health, and ii your meat is lacking
in quality your health must suffer In
consequence, In the spring time the
blood needs the very best nourish-
ment TO aid ii in casting Off the ac.
examinations and impurities that the
body has absorbed during the winter
season and meat Is the great body
builder. New tissues replace the
old, new blood asserts itself and the
body is practically made anew In
the spring time. Therefore il be
hooyes The public to know beyond a
shadow OF doubt that their meats
are only OF the best.

Portland is launching n strong

by many Of the business men of that
city that twice that number will be
confined within It's borders In three
years. n It does. and there are
