FREE MEDICINE.
Bowditch, Webster & Co. Make
Unusual Offer to Women.

Augusta women know from sad eXpei l.
ence the folly of trying to cure their dis
eases by ordinary medicine. 1t is as
foolish to expect to cure falling of the
womb, irregular menstruation or other
female troubles by the usual stomach
drugging as it would be to cure burn
or sprained wrist i'm that way.
The Palm Vine tratment is the only
scientific way of curing women's dis
eases 1t consists of two separate and
distinct medicines; one for internal use,
and the other for direct application.
Each of these medicines sells at fifty
cents, but to introduce the treatment in
Augusta Bowditch, Webster & Co. will
give with every package of Palm Vine
they sell a SOC package of sanative tab
let's. and will further agree to refund the
so cents if the purchaser is not satisfied.

HOW TO TREAT SKIN.
DISEASES
A Simple Remedy That Can Be Tried
For 10 Cents.

Many skin diseases like Eczema and
Salt Rheum arc due to an external
cause that is little understood, and are
not the result of impure blood. The
taking of internal remedies is a waste
of time and money. as many sufferers
can testify. The simplest and safest
remedy is Cadum, the new medical
preparation. Cadum, when applied, ex-
cludes the air and all external agents
that cause Inflammation and irrita-
ton. 1t stops the itching at once, and
the healing process begins immedi-
ately. Wonderful cures are reported
not only of Eczema and Salt Rheum,
but of less serious troubles like Psori.

BOAT WILL RUN.
Augusta Will Have Transfer Service
With Boston Boats at Gardiner.

For some time past the Augusta
Board of Trade has been in corre-
spondance with the officials of the
Eastern Steamship Co. to secure the
retention Of the boat connecting this
city with the Boston boats at Gardiner
and yesterday they were much graft
fed to learn that the company had de-
cided to accede to their wishes, and
that boat would be run from this
city as usual the coming season.
In time it is probable that a smaller.
faster. more economical boat will be
substituted for the City of Augusta on
this run. though it is doubtful if any
change is made the present season.
There can be no doubt but what such
a boat would be paying proposition.
