 Loss of Appetite
 Is the first signal of disorder and decay. The usual loss of appetite is often caused by functional dis. turbances in the stomach. The stom-. ach fails to do the work required, the appetite is gone, and the body suffers from lack of nourishmert. Such stomach needs to be cleaned and sweetened. Meritol Tonic Di- gestive is made especially to assist the stomach to digest food, and pro- mote healthy appetite. This remedy is sold on our positive guarantee, and we ask you to give it 8 trial. It is genuine tonic. w. L. Dewoody & Co.,. sole agents.

Safe Home From Five-Hundred Mile
Journey

Charles Harper Allen, a we'll known
and much respected citizen Of Mercer.
has recently returned from five-
hundred mile trip TO Massachusetts,.
He visited with his daughter, Mrs.
Carry S. Wood in Stoughton. and with
his son, Calvin II. Allen at Monument
Beach Mr. Allen made this trip alone.
really quite a notable undertaking, in
view of the fact, that he suffered the
loss of his left leg two years since.
and, of course, walks with the aid of
crutches. Regarding this, Mr.. Allen
speaks with feeling and enthusiasm of
the extreme kindness and courtesy
shown him even by strangers, where
ever he went. Without seeming to
note his disability, he universally
found people ready, even at great
Inconvenience to themselves, to aid
him wherever assistance could pos
sibly be needed Through his mis-
fortune, Mr.. Allen has aquired a view
of human nature not permitted TO all.
and he is sure that his fellow men are
more kind than they are generally
held to be.
Monument Beach is near the sum
mer home of the late Grover Cleye-
and, and is also in the vicinity Of
the Cape Cod ship canal. now near
completion. This great engineering
work, of course, was extremely inter
esting to our Mercer citizen.
Somerset county people will be
pleased to recall the Mrs. Wood above
mentioned who as Miss Carry Allen
graduated from the Skowhegan High
School not many years since, as vale
dictorian of her class, and was later
graduated from Colby University. Mr..
Aliens visit with his daughter was
made still more pleasant by his. oppor-
tunity to become acquainted with his
grandchild, the three-year old son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Wood.
Calvin H., the son visited by Mr.. AL
len at Monument Beach. will also
be recalled by our readers He now
has responsible position as foreman
of large wood manufacturing estab
lishment in that community

above what is low Bingham, where
they encountered the rapids known as
Carrying Place Rips, so called on ac-
count of this army's carry from here
across to Dead River, distance Of
about fifteen miles through a dense
forest On reaching Dead River they
took up the march again up this
stream for few miles until level
place was reached which is now
known as Flagstaff and here the army
of the Kennebec rested and at this
place although nearing the Canadian
border and already upon soil that
England claimed, the then brave and
heroic Arnold climbed to the top Of
a tall pine and there fastened the
flag of our country. The army rest
ed here for about two weeks and then
the line of march was again taken up
to meet the cold and hardship of the
coming winter when men pushed on
until they could no longer stagger and
then dropped down in such utter
misery that often in less than five
minutes they would be dead. Indeed
it was feared that the entire army
would actually perish of hunger and
WEAKNESS.
About the first of November they
reached Lake Megantic and orders
were given to push on as rapidly as
possible without regard to military
order in search of Canadian villages.
On November Sth they reached Port
Levi on the st. Lawrence river OPP
posite Quebec and it is said if they
could have crossed and attacked i'm
mediatetly the city might have been
taken but Arnold now had only about
700 men left and they were too eX-
hausted, besides boats could not be
readily procured so the British had
time to fortify the city.
On the first of December Mont
gomery arrived with three schooners
and 600 men and a supply of food,
clothing and ammunition. They
united in an attack on Quebec on the
31st and were repealed. Montgom-
cry fell and the Americans evacuated
Canada.
