WHY DOCTORS NO LONGER
CLAIM TO "CURE" PEOPLE.

A few years ago it was a common
thing for the family doctor to say, Il
will cure you in a few days" This
cheerful prophecy often gave the pa
tient new hope and courage but it is
no longer good form. Doctors still
cure malaria and few other
troubles in which their medicines have
direct or Specific" action on the
virus of the disease. In other cases
they simply give supporting medicine
and keep up the strength of the pa
tient until nature effects a cure.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills cure
chlorosis and other troubles due to
thin blood because they have a specific
action on the blood, building 1t up,
purifying and enrlching it. This di-
rect action on the blood also makes
them the best supporting and
strengthening medicine. If you are
thin and weak, breathless after slight
exertion, if you have palpitation of the
heart, gas on the stomach, cold hands
and feet, If you are nervous and cas-
lily irritated and show other signs of
weakened vitality, try these strength
ening pills at once and let the rich,
red blood cure you. Get a box today
at the nearest drug store and begin at
once to build up your health. Write
now to the DIR. Williams Medicine Co..

Dry Goods Boxes.

Portland Me-, Feb. 19.--F'our big
boxes which arrived on the New York
boat yesterday afternoon, addressed

thing but clothing, The deputy sher-
ifs, who were right on the spot, inT
vestigated and found in the boxes 10
FIVE gallon kegs of whiskey.
The clothing firm to which the
freight was addressed disclaimed own
ership. Sheriff Graham Is investigat-
ing the case, but as yet there have
been no developments.
When the liquor deputies yesterday
surrendered to the American Express
Co. a trunk containing 27 quarts OF
whiskey, which had been seized by the
liquor deputies when it arrived in
Portland, but ordered returned by the
corut on the claim of G.. Erasmo, Dep
uty u. S. Marshal Hasty appeared,
seized the trunk in the name of the
United States, and the farthest it got
on the express team was from the
county court house to the federal court
house. Its is charged that the ship
ment into the State was in violation
of the Federal laws. as the trunk was
not marked to show the nature or
quantity of the contents.

"THE ROUGH DIAMOND"
Ably Presented by MIR. and Mrs. n.
Price Weber and Local Talent.

THE Rough Diamond" az presented
Thursday evening at the Parish house
by Mr.. and Mrs. H. Price Weber and
local talent under the auspices Of the
Armitage Club, was a dramatic treat
and drew a crowded house. every seat
in the hall being taken. Mr.. and Mrs.
Weber, old favorites with Augusta
people, were given most cordial
greeting. And they were assisted by
an especially strong cast of Augusta
amateur actors.
The play dealt with the introduction
of THE Rough Diamond Lady Ever
green, into society. Sir William Ever
green, a wealthy gentleman of pro-
found intellect, had married a plain
country girl, who possessed none of
the polish of society. In spite of her
simplicity, however. she proved to be
a diamond at heart, for she was true
to her husband, while her old school
chuna, although in high society, could
not show such worthiness.
H. Price Weber took the part of
Cousin Joe, a cousin Of 1.-THE Rough
Diamond" and with his rural express
sions and wit he made a great hit
The part of Lady Evergreen (the
Rough Diamond') was taken by Ed
wilma Weber. who held the at
tention of her audience from the mo-
ment she came upon the stage. Great
credit must also be given to the To-
cal actors in the play. the parts be-
ing as follows: Sir William Ever
green. John Arnold; Lord Plato, Harry
Jones; Captain Blenheim of the Life
Guards, Ralph Brown; Lady Plato,
Mrs. Everett Jones; Lucy. maid to
Lady Evergreen, Ethel Wade.
The program for the evening also
included a musical feature, which was
thoroughly appreciated by every lover
of good music in the audience, and
there We're many of them. The Armi-
tage Club Trio, Mrs. Mary Morton,
pianist; Miss Beatrice Potter, violinist
and Mrs. j. F. Dearborn, cornetist,
gave selections which called forth
much applause.
The Marionettes, the charming
young misses who made such hit at
the Cafe Chantant" recently given
by the Armitage Club, again made
their appearance and proved to be as
popular as previously Miss Elizabeth
Noble favored the audience with a
solo, which was we'll received. The
Marionettes were: Misses Winnie Nor
cross, Lillian Marston, Elizabeth No
BILE. Alice Carey and Clara Morton.
Master Alden Merrill was given gen.
erous applause by rendering a Welsh
song, and ]. w. Beck rendered a solo
in an excellent manner. A. S. Hough-
ton, of the London Collegial Musicians
now touring this country, was the ac-
companist.

Portland, Me, Feb. 19-When will
the court render its decision in the
Moulton case?
That is the one absorbing question
in Portland and Cumberland county.
Every little while a rumor starts to
Me effect that the court has handed
down it's decision. This always is the
signal fer much excitement and COM
ment until it is learned that there's
nothing to it,
This case, as is we'll known, grows
out of the impeachment proceedings
of last April before the Legislature,
when the sheriffs of Cumberland, Pc
nobscot and Sagadahoc were remov-
ed from office by the Governor upon
address of the House and Senate of
the State. L. II. Moulton, then sheriff
of Cumberland county, instituted quo
warranto proceedings to test the le-
gality of his removal. The case was
argued before the full bench of the
supreme court of Maine in June last,
but the decision has not been received
up to the present time.
IL Is current TuHlOT III tliS city tiie1t
when the decision does come 1t Will
be majority unfolding the action
of the Governor and a dissenting opin-
ion written by Justice Haley.
According to this rumor. Justice
Haley takes the position that the ac-
ton of the Governor in removing
| Sheriff Moulton and naming Sheriff
Scully to succeed him is unconstitu-
tional in that 1t violates the proVi-
sions of the initiative and referendum
amendment to the constitution. He,
so 1t is said, holds that the initiative
and referendum amendment is suffi-
| GENTLY broad in it's scope to affect
this action of the Legislature and that,
before the Governor could act under
the address which was presented to
him requesting the removal from Of
fee of Sheriff Moulton, 80 days must
have elapsed from the time of the
final adjournment of the Legislature.
This was not, Of course, done by Gov
ernor Haines, who acted Immediately
upon the request. Of the Legislature.

Methodist Banquet
To Mr.. ChadbOurne.

The banquet given Thursday evening
by the men of the Green Street Meth
odist church TO Gilbert r. Chadbourne,
editor of the Kennebec Journal, was a
pleasing success from every point of
view, but particularly so to the guest
of the evening The idea of men of the
churches to lend encouragement and
TO pledge their support to the men be-
hind the editorial pencils and dicto-
graphs, gives promise of far-reaching
effect As POSTMASTER Thomas G. In
graham remarked: THE most power
full factor in world affairs today is
the press, and it is the duty Of Chris
tan organizations to urge the press
to firmer and more effective stands for
human uplift, and to encourage 1t and
stand behind it in the good work it
does" Mr.. Ingraham read letters from
W. d. Hutchins and Prof. ]. w. Tay-
ior, who were out of town.
The banquet itself was one of the
best ever served in an Augusta church,
or anywhere else for the matter of
that, and was provided by the Ladies
Aid. Henry Elmore and concert
graphophone with a splendid roper
toire of records furnished music dur
ing the banquet.
Then came the quartet as an open
ing of the exercises. by Miss Carol
Martin, Mrs. Susie Brann, Ernest
Bragg and Ralph Brann. To most of
those present the musical entertain
ment came as a distinct surprise, for
they had not appreciated the quality
that could be provided on short notice
for such an occasion. The musical pro-
gram was provided by Miss Carrie
Bradford.
George c. Libby was called upon by
POSTMASTER Ingraham and spoke
earnestly in a vein that might well
nave caused the ears of the guest to
tingle with appreciation.
Mr. Chadbourne, when called by the
POSTMASTER, was greeted in a manner
to warm his heart toward the men OF
the church with whom he has been in
close association for nearly two years.
He promptly acknowledged his inabil-
ity to express his feelings. He said
that he owed to the gentlemen pres
ent an explanation of his purpose and
how that purpose had been strength
ened and clarified by association with
the men of the Cromwell Bible class.
He told how he was grounded in the
faith of every mans duty to do his
best toward lettering the mental light
and moral life of those with whom he
comes in contact.
