MEN TRADED THEIR WIVES
Merchant From Antwerp Tells lmm-
grafton Authorities Brunette Of
fered Him No Love.

New York-"Life as l lived it With
a brunette who offered me no love
was worth nothing, SO l chose the
blonde wife of friend who had been
paying attention to my wife and
eloped."
This is the explanation offered by
Edward Hermann, a tradesman of Ant
werp. who is spending his first day in
America with woman companion and
her eight-year-old daughter.
Warned from Antwerp that the
Mrs. Hermann on the passenger list
was not Herrmann's legal wife, the
immigration authorities detained the
trio for arraignment before the board
of special inquiry at Ellis island.
Asked If she would not like to leave
Hermann and come ashore alone the
woman said:
NO. Not for anything. His wife is
with my husband In Antwerp. | am
happier with Mr. Hermann than |
have ever been and we must stay to-
gether''
1t was learned that Hermann, his
wife in Antwerp, the woman who ar.
rived with him and her husband were
all brought up In the same village.
All four were married on the same
day In the same church and by the
same pastor

DECLINE OF HORSE, PROBLEM
British Government Makes Grants In
Effort to Revive the Welsh
Light Roadster.

London.-The rapidly disappearing
horse is becoming a serious problem
In England, especially In the war of
fee, which finds the question Of re-
mounts harder to meet each year.
The latest attempt to solve the prob
lem is n movement for the revival of
the Welsh light roadster, and ac-
cording to report of the board of
agriculture, government grants have
been given for the encouragement of
the breeding of this type.
Similar arrangements will probably
be made for the breeding of the rapid
ly disappearing old Deyonshlre pack
horse, but it is feared that it may
be too late to save this type, as 1t Is
almost extinct. Premiums are also to
be given to encourage the breeding
of the old strain of Welsh cob.

Grand Demand For
New Preparation
ACCOMPLISHES IT'S MISSION
Nervous Debilitated Men ?nd Women
Are Made Healthier and Happier
Through Use of iona Vita.

No other preparation has ever been
sold in America for which there is
such a tremendous demand, as "Tona
! Vita" The medicine was unknown in
this country until a few months ago.
and today the sale of the tonic is so
large that it has been impossible to
prepare it fast enough to supply the
sudden and great demand. Druggists
from all over the country are sending
in wires about as follows:
Rush more 'Tona Vita last ship
ment all gone. Sale tremendous"
No medicine could be so tremendous
ly successful unless it had mission
to accomplish and was accomplishing
that mission. "Tona Vita" is accom-
plishing its mission. 1t is making
tired out, debilitated, nervous men and
women, happier, healthier and better
prepared to cope with life.
Nervous debility is the curse of this
age 1t is produced by the strain of
modern life. The symptoms of this dis
ease are little vitality or ambition;
tired, dragging feeling of both mind
and body; nervousness and depres
sion of spirits; stomach and liver
trouble, constipation, headaches, poor
circulation, and susceptibility to
coughs and colds. "Tona Vita is re-
lieving thousands of this miserable
condition. 1t will positively do this,
where there is not some serious or
ganic trouble, in a remarkably shor
time. The very first dose will bring
improvement, and each following dose
adds health and strength. The tonic
must prove satisfactory or the price
is returned by our recognized agent.
Don't drag around half dead, any long
er. What "Tona Vita" is doing for
thousands. it will do for you.
Lees Rhubarb Laxative, the assist
ant preparation, is the finest family
laxative in the world. The natural
medicinal qualities of rhubarb-na-
lures purest and best laxative, are OBJ
tanned in this medicine. Lees Rhn-
barb Laxative will not harm the weak
est constitution and is therefore ideal
for children. 1t is very pleasant to
the taste. Frank w Buchanan has the
agency in Skowhegan for these two
great preparations.

meet Jack Frost half way. this fall.
He has an idea that by burning oil, as
is done in the fruit orchards of the
west, the corn crop can be saved.
Large, open kettles, are used, burn
ing an oil heavier than kerosene; flu
sal oil is used in the west, not to make
heat but smoke. His theory is that
there are two currents of air about
a piece of corn, the warm air from the
earth and the frostladen air from
above If he can create a dense smoke
on a frosty night in and about field
of corn, this thick smudge will hang
over the tops of the corn and act like
a blanket between the upper cold air
