P!NkLETS
To Clear the Complexion.

One result of constipation is to dis
figure the complexion with pimples and
blotches. This is because poisons which
should have been expelled from the body
are retained. Cosmetics and ointments
will not avail to clear such a complexion.
The poisons which cause the dishgura-
ton must be removed as nature intended
To do this laxative that will gently
assist nature, but which will cause no re-
acting constipation to aggravate the
trouble, is needed
Pinklets. the dainty new laxative,
quickly clear away all offending matter
without the least gripping or discomfort.
So simple is their composition that they
can be taken with any other medicine
that is not in itself a laxative. In every
household such a simple, safe medicine
is needed. Pinklets are tiny, sugar-coat-
ed granules. easy to take. Your own
druggist can supply you. Sold in 25
cent bottles only.
Pinklets are a corrective for bad
breath, will clear the complexion, and
are recommended for torpid liver, bill
iousness, headaches, constipation and
whenever a gentle laxative is required.
Write to the Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,
Schenectady, N. Y, for Pinklet book 1t

PORTLAND BOARD OF TRADE
MAY TRY ANOTHER TRIP

Portland, Me-, March 3o.-The ques-
ton of whether the board of trade
shall hold another tour this year is
now being agitated among the 500
members of the organization. The
three previous trips were so success
full that large number were anxious
to have a fourth this year and the
matter will soon come up before the
governors of the board of trade.
One member discussing the question
today said:
Il believe that these annual tours
are one of the greatest advertisements
for Portland that the city can have.
The fact that the Portland board of
trade can get together enough mem
bers to charter special train and go
off on a three-days trip every year
indicates to other cities that Portland
and the Portland board of trade are
very much alive, ard it gives the idea
that the city is full of hustle and en-
terprise. Another great feature of the
trips is the good fellowship that re-
suits and on account of these trips.
Portland's business men are becoming
much better acquainted and are TAX
ing an interest in each other.
| believe that trip should be held
this year. and for my part / think
that as much Maine territory should
be visited as possible. I have heard
it said that the Portland board of
trade on it's three annual tours has
covered the whole of Maine. This,
however. is far from true and some of
the most important territory in the
State yet remains. Skowhegan, one of
the finest towns Of the State, has new
er been visited, and neither have
Dover and Foxcroft. Pennington is
another Maine town yet to be taken
in by the Portland board. IT, desired.
