THE REASON FEWER
PEOPLE TAKE "SALTS''
ssorrtiseh.enre.

We find the use of salts and other harsh
physics is less every year because more
people are using Rexall Orderlies, which
we and they firmly believe to be the best
bowel remedy ever made. They taste SO
much like candy that even the children
like them. AT the same time they act so
easily and naturally that there is no purg-
ing, gripping or pain. They promptly re-
move the constipation and, by soothing
and strengthening the bowels, make it
less liable to occur again. We have the
utmost faith in them. We know what
they are made of and the pleasant, bene-
fetal results that always follow their use.
You needn't take our word for it. If
Rexail Orderlies don't help you-if they
don't entirely relieve all your bowel
troubles-come back and tell us and we'll
give back your money. In vest pocket
tin boxes; Zoe, 25c, Soc.
You can buy Rexall Orderlies only at
The Rexail Stores, and in this town only

Riverview Local Union q.

As Franklin has no young peoples So
ciety, the Sunday school of the Baptist
church entertained the Riverview Local
Union on Tuesday, March "a. There were
but few delegates from the Z. E. societies,
but nearly all were reported by delegate
or letter.
The morning session was opened by the
vice president, Rev, G. Mayo, and was
conducted by Rev. w. II. Durham,
Methodist pastor of Franklin. The BUSH
ness meeting was held after praise service
at the afternoon session. 1t was with re-
greet that the resignation of the president,
W. c. Moon, and the secretary and treas
urer, Mrs. Ethel Moon, were accepted.
They have served the union faithfully.
Capt. Fred L. Hodgkins, of Lamoine,
was elected president, and Mrs. Shirley T.
Holt, OF Lamoine, secretary and treas
urer. The address of welcome was given
by Rev. G. Mayo, and responded to by
Rev. w. H. Rice, OF Lamoine.
Evangelism, the subject of the after
noon, WAS ably discussed by Rev. w. II.
Durham, Rev. q. Mayo, Rev. w. H. Rice,
Bro. John Bragdon, Mrs. T. n. Blaisdell
and others.
A large number was present in the
evening, and heard a most able address by
Rev. q. t. Livingston, OF Bangor. This
was followed by conservation meeting,
in which many took part.
The afternoon praise service was led by
Will Gordon, OF East Franklin, and the
evening praise service by Lloyd Blaisdell,
of East Franklin. Solos were sung by
Miss Blanche Gordon and Miss Mary l..
Mayo.
Dinner and supper were served in the
church vestry, where social intercourse
was also enjoyed.

You will see that acted on my impulse of
the moment. That characteristic has been

wage war against it.
But this particular act OF mine, although it
upset my peace of mind for several days-I
was told that was fool for making the pur-
chase-was the means OF bringing to me Joy,
and to my purse more money than had ever
dreamed of having, and yet, in the train OF

BAY VIEW, 2s7, SALISBURY COVE.


Bay View grange met March 25 with
sixty present. A successful departure was
putting the program for the evening in
the hands of a committee, relieving the
lecturer little. After singing and read
ing, the master read without comment the
platform of the progressive party, and in
tends to Tread those of the republican and
democratic parties as soon as issued A
de bate was then entered into on the ques-
ton whether two years work on farm
was better than two years in an agricul-
tural college. The affirmative was taken
by Paul Russell and the secretary, and
the negative by Leon l., Smith and George
Fogg. The question was mainly treated
from the viewpoints of sons whose
forebears had done the pioneer work and
got the farm together, and who had
their parents knowledge to draw from.
The secretary talked from the viewpoint
of the hired man. Starting with neither
capital, land, knowledge nor assistance, re-
lying on what he could learn and his own
industry, he was foredoomed to life of
hard work and self denial il he kept out
of debt and did justice to his family.
The consensus of opinion WIS in favor of
special training for the farmer.

Hair that loses its color and luster,

to keep her locks dark and beautiful,
and thousands Of women and men who

dark shade of hair which is 80 attrac-
tive. use only this old-time recipe
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture by asking at any drug store for
50-cent bottle Of 'Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy" which darkens
the hair so naturally, 50 evenly, that
nobody can possibly tell 1t has been
applied. Besides, 1t takes off dandruff,
stops scalp itching and falling hair.
You just dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this thru your
hair, taking one small strand at time.
by morning the gray hair disappears:
but what delights the ladies with

sides beautifully darkening the hair
after few applications, 1t also brings
back the gloss and luster and gives it
an appearance of abundance.-Adv.
