PURE RICH BLOOD
PREVENTS DISEASE

Bad blood, that is, blood that is
impure or impoverished, thin and
pale,-is responsible for more all
ments than anything else.
1t affects every organ and function.
In some cases it causes catarrh; in
others, dyspepsia; in others, rheuma-
tism; and in still others, weak, tired,
languid feelings and worse troubles.
1t is responsible for rundown
conditions, and is the most common
cause of disease.
Hoods Sarsaparilla is the greatest
purifier and enricher of the blood the
world has ever known. 1t has been
wonderfully successful in removing
scrofula and other humors, increasing
the red-blood corpuscles, and building
up the whole system. Get it today.

Express Company Collections

In the matter of the establishment
Of collection and delivery service by
express companies on less than statu-
tory notice the Public Utilities Com
mission issued an order under date Of
June s, which is just being issued. The
order reads as follows:
The attention Of the Commission has
been called to the fact that intrastate
and interstate shipments may be re-
ceived at the office Of an express COM
pany on the same date. and each adj
dressed to the same party. 1t also ap-
pears that the collection and delivery
limits Of various express companies,
as flied in their schedules of rates,
tolls, charges and practices, cannot be
changed, except by making supple
mental filing charging such limits
and giving ten days. notice to the pub
lie and to this Commission. which is
required by the Statute. Oftentimes
it is found necessary for an express
company to extend such collection and
delivery limit to meet particular and
important exigency. and 1t would be a
hardship to the public to be obliged to
wait the necessary ten days.
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion has granted permission to all ex-
press companies filing schedules Of
rates with such Commission to extend
their collection and delivery service at
stations which have heretofore not had
such service. or to extend the present
delivery limits at places which have
heretofore had such service to a lin
tied extent, and in granting such per-
mission, has allowed such extension to
be made upon one days notice to the
public and to the Commission.
Various express companies under the
jurisdiction Of this Commission have
requested US to grant to them and the
public similar privilege, and it is,
therefore.
Ordered: That each express COM
pany. as defined in Chapter 1923 of the
Public Laws of the State Of Maine for
the year 1913. from and after this date
is granted permission to establish, on
one days notice to the public and to
this Commission. collection and deliv-
cry service at stations which have
heretofore not had such service, and
to extend the present delivery limits at
places which have heretofore had such
service to limited extent.
