Safe Treatment for Headache

The rational treatment for headache
is TO get at the cause, if possible, ana
remove it. Headache is only symp-
tom of trouble somewhere in the sys-
TEN, and dosing with tablets or powders
containing acetanilid or other coal-tar
derivatives which stop the pain tempo
rarily but weaken the heart, is at once
unsafe and unwise.> The headache may
come from your eyes, then good ocu-
list can help you at once with proper
eyeglasses; but if it comes with furred
tongue, loss Of appetite, nausea, and
constipation, it is usually the result
of disordered digestion, or torpid liver,
and one or two doses of L. F. Atwood's
Medicine will speedily help you by
carrying off impurities and restoring
the clogged digestive organs to their
normal activity. In using this old re-
liable remedy, you take no chances Of
weakening the hearts action.
It has a record of sixty years as a
safe headache remedy. The 'L. F."

NEW DEMOCRATIC MOSES,

Editor Kennebec Journal: Senator
Edgar F. Hanson yesterday lambasted
the liquor law for an hour. Here is a
sample from the speech of, this ''New
Moses;" because believe in temper
ance wish the citizens of Maine to say
whether or not we shall continue the
present conditions. The prohibitory law
is the parent of hypocrisy and perjury. ="
The last statement is slightly mac
curate. Crimina! laws disclose those
qualities in criminals and conniving Of
ficials, but does not create them. Sena-
tor Hanson's responsibility, as mayor of
Belfast, extends from March 1907, to the
present time; but the city reports show
that his police in four years did not make
one arrest for violations of the liquor
law.
Further, the U. S. Internal Revenue
record at Portsmouth, N. H., shows that
Senator Mayor Hanson's son (Elvin E.
Hanson) pays at this time the tax as a
''retail liquor dealer,' at the Commercial
Hotel in Belfast, where the father, while
pretending to ''believe in temperance, :"
entirely disregards his sworn obligation
as mayor to sustain the law, and uses his
paper, The Waldo County Herald, to adj
vance the interests of law-breakers.

FOR STATEWIDE PROHIBITION.

While no official action was taken by
the Maine Methodist Episcopal Con-
ference at Lewiston, March 9th, there
is no doubt how the members, those
present in the evening anyway, stand on
nation wide prohibition question. This
was shown by the hearty applause given
DR.. Wilson's address on this subject.
The featu, e of the evening session was
the singing of the hymn, "Maine's Glory
Song" poem written by Rev. B. C.
Wentworth of Norway that afternoon
1t was sung to the tune OF ''The Battle
Hymn OF the Republic" and is as follows:
NAMES GLORY SONG
Old Maine, once more has spoken
And her voice is ringing still
Through her special legislature
On the recent whiskey bill
Giving certain towns and cities
Right to sell, debauch and kill,
But Maine goes marching on.
Chorus:
GLORY, Glory Hallelujah,
Old Maine goes marching on
This bill devised by Plaisted
Was his agonizing gasp,
Putting Maine and prohibition
Safe within the brewers grasp
But between the House and Senate
1t was left to breathe it's last
While Maine goes marching on.
Chorus.
We are sure the temperance voters
In this Commonwealth of Maine
Won't be fooled by word of promise
From this demagogue again
| Who has broken all his pledges
Made US in the last campaign
While We go marching on.
This brought out lively hand clappine
expressive Of the sentiment of the even
ing. The members of the quartet were
B. C. Wentworth, A. A. Lewis, J. R.

THE WOOLLY APPLE-APIiIS.

According to Farm and Fireside the
greatest pest which for years has been
damaging the apple yield in almost every
section of the United States is the WOOL
ly aphis. Following is an interesting ex-
tract:
'The insect is so insignificant in its
appearance, and does its injury in such a
secretive way, that its first attack is
likely to be entirely unobserved.
':After experience with both pests, it
is the writer's firm opinion that less
danger may be expected from the San
Jose scale than from the woolly aphis
when it has become thoroughly establish
ed. The San Jose scale, numbering
millions in single season, sucks much
needed juice from the limbs, but with
that it is content, while the woolly aphis
not only deprives the tree of sap, but
destroys it's power to recuperate. The
San Jose scale, though he hides beneath
a tough, impervious roof, is exposed and
open to attack when compared with our
woolly friend, who burrows unseen under
several inches of soil.
''The first indication of this pest will
be found in the form of a white, fluffy.
cotton-like substance on the limbs
usually located on tender terminal twigs,
water sprouts, or the new bark about
healing. wounds. If this is carefully
brushed off, underneath will be found
small, reddish tinted bugs very soft
bodied, helpless creatures -clinging to
the bark. This is one form of the aphis,
which OF itself does comparatively little
harm. and is easily eradicated by sprays.
However small and helpless these
tlrst foragers appear, their destruction
by spraying should not be neglected, for
their presence is an almost sure indica-
ton that the tree will soon be infested
with the serious root form. Too often
that infection has already taken place,
necessitating more radical measures"

A NOTE FROM MR.. PRINGLE.

To THE EDITOR OF The JOURNAL, I
send herewith the clipping from the
Kennebec Journal of the 9th inst. with
request that you publish it if it is agree
able to you to do so. 1t seems to me fair
to.inform the people of these facts. Per-
haps l ought to have mentioned the
neglect of the county authorities as l
had two witnes ses making investigation
in Belfast at the time the fair was held
last fall. They found several places in
Belfast where liquor was sold openly. but
when I wrote the county attorney and
sheriff the names of the two witnesses
and offered to have them before TIE
Grand Jury at the fall term of court
neither accepted the offer.
Very truly yours,

NERVOUS HEADACHE
Resulted from a Decline in Heakh
and Was Cured by Building
Up the Blood.

If people would realize the importance
of keeping the blood rich and pure there
would be less sickness.
The blood is the medium through
which the nourishment gained from food
reaches the different parts of the body.
If the blood is impure the nourishment
that reaches nerves, bone and muscle is
tainted with poison and disease follows.
The blood is also the medium by
which the body fights off disease. Ii
the blood is thin this power Of resist
ance to disease is weakened.

S. l am interested in the discus
sions of climate and scenery in various
parts of the country 1t always corre-
spends with what l should expect from
what have seen.
We have had the heaviest snow for
years, but it did not last more than two
months. 1t is good time to plant po-
tatoes here now. We planted some last
fall for the first experience in fall plant
ing. We are confident of success as
volunteer potatoes growing where they
were raised the year before, are always
the best. shall plant fifteen hundred
apple trees this spring and install a
water wheel and pump to raise forty
thousand gallons Of water per day, but
this does not interest me so much as the
sermon you published last month by Rev.

culture of something more valuable than
apples and potatoes. The same is true

BIG GUSHER ON FIRE.
Fire Will Burn for Days Causing
Heavy Loss.

Taft, Cal, June .3.-Fire of I'M
known origin which started late yes
terday in the engine room of Well No.
3, of the Buick Oil company, near Fell
lows, ignited with 1000 barrel gusher
of the Pacific Crude Oil company, a
hundred feet away. Two 5000 barrel
tanks are within fifty feet of the blaz-
ing gusher and a hundred feet distant
is the No. 2 we'll of the Buick COM
pany. These will be destroyed if the
wind changes. The flames from h
gusher early today were mounting
hundreds of feet in the air and can be
seen plainly from Taft, seven miles
away.
The gusher came in last Thursday
and had saturated the ground for
many yards. Rig crews were at sup
per when flames were seen creeping
from the engine room of the Buick
gusher. Before sand could be heap
ed about the rigging, the enormous
stream of oil and gas from the Pacific
crude oil company's we'll had caught.
From this the flames jumped to a
stump hole 100 feet distant containing
five thousand barrels of oil. This in
turn ignited bunk houses and other
buildings. 1t is believed that the well
will burn for many days. The loss will
be about $4,000 daily.
