new STATION
viii Be Completed Dur :
ing The Year 1912
And with Il New Steel Bridge
Across the KennebeC.
Clearing Up Around Old Buildings
Preparatory to Removal.

Work upon the new Maine Central
passenger station at augusta will, ae-
cording to what is believed TO be ex-
client authority, be started in sufIi-
cient season so that the new station
will be completed before the opening
of the session of the Legislature of
1913. All repairs that are being made
about the old station are ordered to
be made entirely of temporary ma
ture and the clearing up of the old
jUnk and rubbish about the old round
house, preparatory to taking it down,
has already begun.
With the new passenger station n
new double track steel bridge across
the Kennebee at Augusta will be con-
strneted. The new bridge will, 1t is
understood. be several feet higher than
tbs present one and will also cross the
river at the east end at a point some
90 feet north of the present site. In
connection with this part of the con-
struction the Augusta Lumber Co. has
already been requested to change the
location of its boom, which would be
in the way of the new structure.
A new roundhouse and turntable are
aiso contemplated on the east SIDE OIL
the river upon a site between the
Cushnoc Paper Co.. and the railroad
track. The site. which is now mound
shaped elevation would be reduced to
grade.
Chief Engineer Dunn of the Port
land offices of the Maine Central Rail-
road Co., states that plans for the new
passenger station at Augusta have not
yet been completed and accepted, al
though it is reported here that the
contract will be awarded within a
short time.

THE SECRET OF SUCCESS
Genuine Merit Required to Win
the Peoples Confidence

Have you ever stopped to reason
why it is that so many products that
are extensively advertised, all at once
drop out of sight and are soon for
gotten? The reason is plain-the ar
ticle did not fulfill the promises of
the manufacturer. This applies most
particularly to a medicine. A medi-
cinal preparation that has real cura-
tive value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy
is recommended by those who have
been cured, to those who are in need
of it.
In an interview on the subject a
prominent local druggist says "Take
for example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, a preparation have sold for
many years and never hesitate to rec
ommend, for in almost every case it
shows immediate results, as many of
my customers testify. No other kid
ney remedy that I know of has so
large a sale.'' -
The success of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root is due to the fact that it fulfills
every wish in overcoming kidney, liv-
er and bladder diseases, corrects ur-
mary troubles and neutralizes the
uric acid which causes rheumatism.

mail, absolutely free. Address Dr.

How Much Shall It Be

Each store is going to do some ad-
vertising next month. Each mer-
chant is going to understand that he
can get benefit from space we'll used!
Each one is trying to figure how much
space he can use with profit!
If a merchant has been advertising
occasionally, he is going to try to
figure how he can advertise every
day, if he has been using small ads
at frequent intervals, he is going
to see if it will not pay to use larger
spaces and use them oftener. That
is the way business is DEVELOPING.
That is what merchants ought to be
trying to accomplish.
The one who pays out more money
for advertising and gets a fair per
cent of profit as a result, will have no
difficulty in seeing the advantage OF
what he is doing. But how much
should he do? That is the question
which is now of greatest Importance
How much should he spend and how
should he spend it? go
