 No such drastic legislation was adopted by the hcnchmen of Bancroft Johnson. It was decided not to cut down the player limit at all. but to let it stay at twenty-five during the playing season and thirty-flve during the off-season. That is. twenty five from May 15 to September 15, and thirty-five during the remainder of the year.

THE SECRET OF SUCCESS
Genuine Merit Required to Win
The Peoples Confide &C..

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
OF sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is PLAINTIFF article did not fulfil
the promises OF the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended ry those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says: stake for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, q
preparation have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many OF my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy that know of
has 80 large SALE"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony Of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success OF DR..
Kilmer's Swamp Root is due to the fact
that 1t fulfls almost every wish in over
coming kidney, liver and bladder dis
eases, corrects urinary troubles and neu-
tralizes the uric acid which causes rheu-
matism.

Swamp-root by Parcel Post. Address

MONA QUICKLY
ENDS INDIGESTION
Eat Your Favorite Food and \
Fear After-Distress.


There is a way for you to eat what
ever your stomach Graves. Many will
say: "How wish could but 1 have
tried and every time it nearly kills
me-"
The real trouble is that people who
suffer the untold agony of indigestion
do not realize that the stomach has
lot of work to perform in digesting
the food, and if crowded with extra
labor it rebels and kicks up fearful
disturbance.
Mi-o-na, simple and inexpensive
prescription, easily obtained from G.
A. Parcher or any drug store, will
quickly and effectively stop this dis
turbance, or money refunded. 1t not
only increases the flow of digestive
juices, but surely and safely builds up
and strengthens the stomach walls so
that what you eat is cared for as
nature intended.
It's needless for you to suffer with
indigestion, heartburn, biliousness,
sour and gassy or upset stomach, for
Mi-o-na tablets surely give prompt
and lasting relief and are perfectly
harmless.

Why Go To Church?
NORTH PEsoBscor. ME-, Jan. n, 1e1

NORTH PESoBsCoT, ME-, Jan. n, 1913.
To the Editor Of The American:
This question has been ventilated in
out the State, both from the minister's and
the lsymsn's standpoint. The discussion,
no doubt. has, resulted in larger general
attendance, and increased interest in Sab
bath observance.
That there has been q falling of in the
the last fifty years is apparent to the most
casual observer who has passed through
that period. Fifty years ago the popula-
ton in many OF our older towns was very
much larger than 1t Is to-day. 1t was an
age Of large families, and a family group
Of from ten to fifteen children was COM
mon sight. There was a host OF young
people under twenty Ave years Of age, and
our rural schoolhouses were crowded to
the doors with pupils.
There we're fewer Sunday attrac-
tons and diversions to absorb the
attention OF the young, and par
ents more generally and regularly at
tended church, and required more rigid
observance OF the Sabbath on the part Of
their children. There were more church
members, more revivais, and q more pro-
nounced religious element every where.
The doctrines preached from the pulpit
were clear-cut and sharp-edged, and de-
hvered with power and inspiration that
penetrated the very core OF ones spiritual
being. The ministers Of that day believed
in red hot gospel, and gave little atten-
ton to literary merit, the logic Of theoi-
smaller churches. They claimed to be
divineiy appointed, and received their
messages direct from God, and they
seldom modified their discourses to please
an essy-going crowd.
Sin, salvation, conviction, repentance.
heaven, hell, regeneration, specification,
resurrection, Immortality, Christ's cruci-
hxion, were the great themes they ever
Kept before the people, and with an in
tense and ail-absorbing yearning for the
salvation OF human souls, they pressed
those subjects on their hearers with an
energy OF voice and force OF utterance and
Imagery that made frightful and lasting
Impressions on the minds Of the young.
sinners in the hands OF an angry God
were held over the burning crater OF hell
and singed into state of conviction and
repentance.
1t was little wonder that hundreds OF
The young, with tender and impression
able minds, fiocked to the church divinely
Illuminated and protected, as their only
succor from . dispieased and frowning
deity.
There were few well-trained church
ehors then, but every body who could
sing was glad to get irto the big gallery
stretching across the front OF the church,
and help to swell the volume OF song.

FEATURE OF the Sunday program.
With two sermons OF one hour and fifty
minutes each, forenoon and afternoon,
with lunch at the church between
services, our churches OF to-day
would be as vacant Is last years BIRDS
nests. And yet the churches then were
often crowded with an eager throng
throughout the day. II.
