Oil Valuable as Food.

SUPPORT of the popular theory that the
sardine is of great dietetic value. The
sardine is good, the Lancet tells us,
because. for one thing, it encourages
the consumption of oil. which tends to
avoid many ills, and especially those
associated with wasting diseases and
equity dispositions" This consump-

the overlooking of the tissues with

OUR FIRE ladies
To Be rendered Testimonial Feb
o-10 in Wilson Hall.

The Halloween F'iremen's Association
is Distinct from the fire department
proper. though many of the latter are
also members of the association. The as
sociaton is composed, very largely of bus
mess and professional men whose en-
gagements could not furnish time for
them to fight a blaze. The association
has been formed for the purpose of en-
couragng as brave and as manly u set
of fire laddies as any city III the country
knows and they work. very largely, with
out compensation other than receiving
the thanks of those whose property they
have saved. They have proven them
selves Valiantly in some of the stormy
freezing nights of winter as well as tho
calm and pleasant days of summer.
II is in recognition of their bravery
and good work accomplished, that the
association is planning the testimonial to
be given the fremen on the evening OF
Feb $40 in Wilson hall. one of the
features of the first evening will be the
presentation of Il handsome silk banner
hand painted something worth carrying
when companies shall take part in the
musters held in different parts of the
State Mayor Wingate will probably
make the speech of presentation and as
Chief Patterson of the fire department
has so recently passed through bereave-
ment in his home, Assistant Chief Luther

LIFE INSURANCE COMPANIES
They Are Closely Observing Public
Health Conditions.

An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, In
an interview on the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that the reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jectcd Is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of applicants do not even
suspect that they have the disease.
He states that judging from his own
experience and reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has probably been more successful In re-
lieying and curing these diseases than
any remedy known. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. kilmer's SwamD-Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
it's remarkable record of cures.
We find that Swamp-Root is strictly an
herbal compound and we would advise
o,,r readers who feel IN need of such a
remedy to give it trial. 1t Is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes
tifty-cents and one-dollar
However, If you wish first to test its
wonderful merits, serfd to Dr. Kilmer &
Co, Binghamton, N. Y, for a sample
bottle, absolutely free. When writing be
sure and mention the Augusta Kennebec

lest of the season the wedding party
gathered at the home of Councilman

building must go, some streams were
diverted and thrown upon the sur
