THEY HELPED HER
TO FIND HEALTH
A Maine Woman Tells What Dr..
Williams Pink Pills Will Do
for Her Sex,

Neglect Or improper treatment of
woman's ills almost inevitably leads to
a train of unfortunate results and fire.
quently to lifetime of misery. In time
almost every organ of the body becomes
affected, the nervous system is broken
down, the digestion is weakened and
symptoms of kidney trouble develop.
Women who become pale and lose
weight and ambition and are subject to
headaches and fainting spells, need such
q tonic as DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
They are especially adapted for girls
and women of all ages and give just the
aid required to bring back health and
strength to the nervous and exhausted.
What DR.. Williams Pink Pills will do
for women is illustrated in the expert
ence of Miss Florence A. Jordan, of No.
95 Perham street, Pennington, Me. She
says:
"a cold brought on trouble to which
my sex is subject and for two years l
suffered without relief until tried DR..
Williams Pink Pills. was very irreg-
ular and at intervals suffered so that l
was obliged to stay in bed. My blood
seemed to CONCEAL and my body was
covered with purple spots, my heart
f1uttered, slight exertion tired me, was
pale and my strength and ambition were
gone. Sometimes my feet swelled so
that could not keep on my shoes.
''After consulting several doctors and
finding no relief in their medicines, an
other physician advised me to try DR..
Williams Pink Pills. He said they had
helped his daughter who suffered the
same way did, and so got supply.
Two boxes brought about the desired
results and a few more restored me to
complete health"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or sent by mail, postpaid,
on receipt of price, so cents per box; six
boxes for $3.50, by the DR.. Williams
Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y.
The pills are guaranteed to be safe and
absolutely harmless to the most delicate
constitution. They contain no morphine,
opiate, narcotic nor anything to cause
drug habit
A booklet, "Plain Talks to Women"
will be sent free to any woman suffer-
ing from weakness. It explains fully
why DR.. Williams Pink Pills are suited
to the needs of weak women of all ages.

LOBSTERS.
Iron the New York Commercial. !

From the New York Commercially
New Workers who pay the lobster
palaces anywhere from 81. Is to 81 90 for
an Indifferent sized broiled live Holsters
will find pleasant and appetizing reading
in a recent report by United States
Consul John Kehl at Sidney, Nova Scotia
During the present season the prices
paid to the catchers in that province for
live Holsters have ranged from 81. rs to
SIT per one hundred pounds-or less
than three cents per pound; last year
the prices varied from So. 25 to So. 25 for
hundred pounds.
And yet the retail price of Holsters
here in New York many of them com
ing from Nova Scotia, TOBIAS ruled
higher this year than it did last year,
the quotations running around IS cents a
pound for lives and around 80 cents for
boiled Holsters.
The transportation charges from Maine
and the provinces cannot be heavy, and
the waste in the handling, is got great;
so somebody must be making big money
on Holsters in this town. A three-pound
broied live lobster at dollar and half
is something essentially ridiculous be-
sides being exasperating.
During the year 1908, according to
this consular report, the declared value
of Holsters shipped to the United States
from Nova Scotia points was as follows.
From Sydney, canned Holsters, $37, 1852;
Canso, live Holsters, Sc, 10; Port Haw-
kesbury, live Holsters, Sc, 663; canned
Holsters, $50, 937; Pictou, canned lob
sters, $176,2 54. The export during the
present season will be considerably less
and is attributed to the large supply Of
81. Of no 1nIn
berS.
Up to July 18th the export from Sgd
new amounted to only So, 673; from Port
Hawkesbury about $33, 600. At Gaba-
rouse and at Gull Cove, both famous for
the size of their Holsters, the fishermen
this wear refuse to take 1925 per hun
dred pounds for their catches and are
hacking and selling them on the coop
erative plan.
At Halifax Yankee guest at one OF
the hotels this summer, dissatisfied at
the infrequency with which Holsters We're
served. arranged with a local retail fish
dealer to send him for himself and family
half dozen good-sized Holsters every
day for month; when the bill came IN
at the end of the month-for 1870 Holsters
weighing at least $50 pounds the Yankee
nearly tainted at the size of it, only Sl5.
1t thus appears that Holsters are plen-
tiful and cheap in Nova Scotia, although
the supply in Maine and other New Eng
land points has been much lessened IN
recent years. The abnormally high prices
for them in New York city must be due
to other causes than scarcity III the catch.
WHY should not some of our numerous
reformers and publicists and probers and
muck-rakers delve into the lobster prob
lem and solve it, if they can?

ISOLATION, daughters of the veterans act
ing as mattresses.
Among those present was the ''baby of
the battery" Charles f. Anes of Dam

ell j. Harden, Camden, pres; John H.
Thomas, George N. Tate, Rockland; Will
liam 0. Steele, Rockland, vice pres;

MAINE WoMEN's CLUBS.
The Federation Meeting in Watervill

| The Federation Meeting IN Watefvlie.
VAUDEVILLE, September 18th. The
closing day of the 18th annual meeting OF
the Maine Federation of W0men's clubs
found the some 600 club women who
have thronged here from every quarter
of the State gathered at the First Bap-
fist meeting house early in the forenoon.
AS soon as the meeting was called to
order the session settled down to routine
business and the election of officers for
the ensuing year was in order.
The afternoon session Wednesday, call
ed to order by President White at 1.30,
was filled with things of interest and
benefit. Miss Elizabeth R. Hobbs, the
recording secretary, read the minutes of
the morning session and Mrs White then
presented Miss Georgia Bacon, who gave
one of the brightest talks on Civil Ser
yive Reform ever delivered by man or
woman Miss Bacon is a pleasing speak
err and her easy way Of giving facts as
thew are won the attention of her hear
ers at once. Two systems are to be dis
cussed. the spoils system and the merit
system. President Garfield's death was
directly due to the spoils system, for his
assassin was disappointed Office seeker.
Civil service reform will teach us to be
sure that the ianitors of our schools are
fitted for the positions they occupy, that
boiler and steamboat inspectors do the
duties intrusted to them. Let us see
that we appoint only those fitted for re-
sponsible positions and keep graft and
boodlerism out of life.
Arts and Crafts is RAPIDLY becoming a
prominent branch of work and a report
was read of the work done. A rising
vote of sympathy was given for Mrs.
H. M. Estabrook who is mourning the
loss of a relative.
An appreciation OF the work of the
Commonwealth Colony of Art and Indus
trv was read bv Miss Nve of Lewiston.
Mrs. Asa G. Randall, the director, was

It IS the Theme of Another Patriotic Poem
by Mrs. Powell.
To THE EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL: !
was deeply touched on reading in The
Journal the very interesting account of
the reunion of the 18th Maine to find that
the dear old regiment had cherished so
long the simple lines that |, then o;rl
OF fifteen, wrote when the 18th went to
the front.
The lines as published were not quite
complete. inclose a copy of the poem
as l wrote it in '62. l also add another
little poem, which I dedicate to the 2etb
Maine in kind remembrance.
Very sincerely yours,
EMILY BROWNE POWELL.
Alameda, Calf, Sept. 9, 1909.
A complete copy of the poem written
IN 1862 was published in The Journal last
week. The later poem referred to fol-
lows:
~ AiAH MAINE REGIMENT.
1909
Brave men, who at the trumpet's call
Followed the flag in days of yore,
What aching hearts you left behind,
By pine-clad hils--by rock-ribbed shore
A young girl sent the parting song
That cheered you on your southwark way.
Those simple lines of long ago
gray haired woman read today
And through the dmness of the years,
Across the mountains and the plain,
She sends you greeting words once more.
o gallant Twenty sixth of Maine!
A grateful nation knows your deeds.
And childrens children proudly tell
The story of their heritage,
The noble work you did so well.
The years stretch backward, far, so far.
And graves are all along the way
Of comrades dear who marched with YOU
Through southern swamp and battle frav.
How thinned are now the veteran ranks
That answer roll call, year by year,
Gods peace for those who answer not.
Blessings on those who still are "heret"

MOB rs oUTWITTED
BY NERVY SHERIFF

PENSACOLA, Fla, Sept. @.--Evading
a mob bent upon lynching his prisoners,
Sheriff Hayes Lewis, of Mariana, Jack
son county, reached here early this morn
ing having in custody three negroes. Dan
Davis, Cary Gray and Robert Gray. who
were arrested Monday for the murder of
John Dukes, a planter Of that county.
After the negroes had been placed in
jail at Mariana Monday night a mob
was formed about midnight and demand
ed entrance. Concealing the negroes, the
mob was admitted by the jailer and af-
ter failing to find the prisoners quietly
left the Jail. Yesterday learning of the
ruse by which they had been outwitted
the citizens formed again and prepared to
attack the jail second time. The sher-
if, however, succeeded in getting the
prisoners away without being molested.
Dukes, it is said, was murdered in a
brutal manner, the body being horribly
mutilated. His wife. who was a Mrs
King before her marriage, is Frustrated,
