JUDGE PINckNev SPEAKS OUT.

"As a Judge I intend to carry out
the laws enacted for the good OF the
children and the shortage can take
care of itself"
In these words Judge Pinckney OF
the Juvenile Court threw down the
gauntlet to the county board In an
swering its criticism that the Juvenile
Court was $4,000 short of its appro.
priation in 1913. The Judge was ad.
dressing a meeting of superintendent
of various institutions and he spoke
emphatically.
THE county board speaks complain
ingly of the shortage" he said. 1T Is
not my fault but theirs for not appro'
priating more money. The county
board will appropriate any amount OF
money for political purposes, yet II
tries to keep us cramped for money.
"The Juvenile Court Is an economic
factor in its care of dependent chill
dhen with parents. ] am glad to real
ize that this court has been able to
care for 1856 children, through county
aid by assisting their mothers or both
parents. Only one child became de
linquent and two became truants
This shows that on the economic
score alone the county can well afford
to provide the Juvenile Court with
funds to care for children needing pro
| lection"

YOUR KIND OF HEADACHE

The headache which in addition TO
the pain, gives the impression of a
tight band about the head, is caused
by nervous exhaustion. 1t is a bless
ing in disguise because it gives warn
ing that you are overdrawing your
supply of nervous energy. Unless
you stop the mental fatigue and build
UP your nerves you will be fortunate
if you escape nervous breakdown,
some form of paralysis or other Sc
we're nervous disorder.
Rest is of course, desirable but not
always possible and liable to be de-
ferred With sufficient rest the
nerves will build themselves up. Fail
ing in this, you need something that
will build them up and sustain them
while they are kept moderately at
work. DIR. Williams Pink Pills are
probably unequalled for this purpose.
They build up the nerves in the only
possible way, by enriching the blood
with the elements the nerves need.

SIDNEY

Another state has just honored a
Maine man. The people of Cranstou,
r. l., selected for the state senate
Willis S. Drummond of that city, but
who was born in Sidney. Maine, son
of the late II. H. Drummond of OAK
land. Mr.. Drummond was elected by
plurality of 400 votes. He is well
known in Maine. His brother, Mer-
ton H. Drummond, lives in Sidney,
and his sister. Mrs. Ralph M. Brann,
lives in Augusta. His mother is still
living, Mrs. Martha Drummond Keller,
of Green street, Augusta. The Gran
ston City Times has the following
concerning Mr.. Drummond:
When j. Rushing Fuller, candidate
for State senator on the Republican
ticket. dropped dead last Sunday
morning, there followed, after the
first announcement, much speculation
as to whom would be selected to take
the vacant place. The Cranston City
Committee did not long leave the
matter in doubt. They placed the
burden of the candidacy upon the
broad and ample shoulders of Willis
S. Drummond. and therein selected a
known as a sound citizen and practi-
cal business man, and staunch Re-
publican. 1t was not without effort
that Mr.. Drummond was induced to
run. He has seldom sought office,
and it was only upon the strong solicit
tation of his friends that he yielded.
knowing that his candidacy was vital
to success, they urged him until they
had won their point.
Every standpoint considered, there
is no man better qualified for the Of
flee of Senator from Cranston than
Willis S. Drummond. What his OPP
ponents may claim he lacks in expert
ence he more than makes up in logic
and practical business principles. H.
possesses the faculty of sticking to a
thing until he wins his point, and his
election to a Senate which by any
forecast must be Republican is es-
sential if Cranston is to have better
roads and other State improvements
which are vital to the best interests
of the city.
Mr.. Drummond is the owner of a
splendid residence at "A Auburn street
in the second ward. He is well known
politically all over the State and nj
present is Cranston's member in the
Republican State Central Committee
He has served on the Cranston towl,
council and always has been closely
interested in Republican policies He
was born March 25. 1870, in Sidney,
Maine, and has lived in Auburn for
the past fourteen years.
Mr.. Drummond is senior member OF
the firm of Drummond Hand Laundry
Co. located in Elmwood. His friends
in business, social and political life
are legion, and all write us saying that
his election will be to the decided ad-
vantage of the city Of Cranston.
