Skowhegan High Girls Winning Great
Laurels

The Skowhegan High school basket
ball team was the winner in a game
with the Cony girls basket ball team
Saturday night at Augusta. The score
was to S.
The score was close at all times and
for long time it looked as If Cony
would come out victorious But the
work of the guards of the visiting team
was too much for the Cony girls.
Misses Pennell and Smiley of Show
hogan were there every moment to
block the shots of the Cony forwards.
So well were the Cony girls guarded
that they were unable to pass with any
accuracy to say nothing of the trying
to shoot for the basket
The game started off well for the
home team for 1t was in the first
period that this team won all its
points Miss Thompson made three
goals from fouls and Miss CULVER
made a goal from the floor from a
position Skowhegan won two
points in that period Miss White
making two goals from fouls
In the second period Skowhegan got
in the lead, increasing her score to 6
by goals from the floor made by Misses
Sally and White. Miss White in the
third and last period made another
goal from foul for Skowhegan

A MEDICINE OF MERIT.

A proprietary medicine. like every
thing else that comes before the pub
lie, has to prove its merits. The law
of the survival of the ittest applies
in this field as in others. The rea-
son for the tremendous success of
Lydia f. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound is because it has been fulfill
ing a real human need for forty years
so that today thousands of American
women owe their health and happi-
ness to the marvellous power of this
famous medicine, made from roots
and herbs-nature's remedy for
woman's ills.

made by the Russian commander in
chief, who. however, asserts that the

taken by a counter attack.
In north Poland a cavalry charge
in the Suwalki district resulted in a
defeat of the Germans, who were
driven away with losses in men kill

grad. Berlin says Russian attacks
near Augustowo were repulsed.
There has been little fighting on
the western front. The French have

the Woevre department, while the
Germans have captured from the Bel
gians the village Of Drei Grachten,
south of Dixmude.
