that. with the possible exception Of a
political convention. Augustus city
building will mold the largest crowd in
its history.

/ to Augusta at the invitation Of the Au-
gusta Branch Of the Maine League
for National Defense and has declined
( to take pay for his services. On this
account no admission charge will be
made The lecture will be entirely
/ free, to men and women alike.

attraction at this mass meeting
Among the other speakers will be
former Chief Justice William Penn
/ Whitehouse. an Augusta citizen whom
the general public have seldom heard
speak at a public gathering: United
/ States Senator Charles F. Johnson of
Waterville, whom Augusta people are
always delighted to hear: and former
Governor Frederick ". Plaisted, whose
address on the subject of preparedness
delivered al the court house in Septem-
Der has been warmly praised
The orchestra from the National
Home for Disabled Volunteer Soldiers
at Togus has been secured fer the eve
ming through the courtesy Of Col. Will
liam p. Hurley. the governor, Prof.
Theme, the director and the members.
In addition TO these, Il is expected that
there will be quite large number of
officers and members from the Home

AND IT WASN'T Even
HIS REAL STRONG DAY

A few Of the boys were standing to-
Sether on Water street, near one Of
the big autos owned in this city, and
Eood-natured chaf was being passed
back and forth, to the delight of all
concerned and the amusement Of the
bystanders. One word followed an
other. until with a joking remark that
he would turn the auto upside down.
one weak little chap grabbed the rear
axle Of the auto near the off wheel and
lifted the wheel quickly into the air,
al Tree from the paving, and dropped
II. the thud shaking up the chauffeur
and causing him to spring out to see
what had happened. Being told that
the weak little fellow had alone lift
&c the machine of the ground. he
WCuiont believe i, and was skeptical
even when all who saw the perform
ance assured him that il was a fact.
The party began TO wonder how
much Ernest-there, We almost told
didn't we. that il was Ernest Wright
had lifted and the auto was driven to
stone & Cooper's scales. where il was
found that the weight was $500 pounds
Then the machine was run onto the
scales so that the same rear wheel
had the same bearing as when the
lifting was done by the axle and the
scales registered 1855 pounds.
Ernest said that il was the first time
that any of his lifting stunts had ever
been weighed and il surprised him.
for he should not have guessed he had
lifted bit over 800 pounds. And his
parting word was:
Say, don't tell John Gagnon. for
If YOU do he'll be lifting a whole ga
rage"
That being the case, We have said
nothing to John.

FROG IN BABY'S STOMACH
TadpoIe Grew and Waxed Fat on the
Infants Milk-Child
Is Dead

The eighteen-months-old child of
Mrs. Harry Wolf of Chicago is dead.
following an operation which disclosed
conditions that many surgeons had de-
clared to be impossible, says Goshen
(lnd.) dispatch to the Indianapolis Star.
While visiting her parents in SYRIA
cuse. kosciusko county, last summer,
Mrs. Wolf permitted the baby to drink
hydrant water. Within a short time
the infant became sickly and lost flesh.
Treatment for indigestion was given,
but 1T did not reach the seat of the
trouble. Then an X-ray examination
disclosed black spot on the stomach.
and an operation resulted in a frog
weighing more than half pound be-
ing taken from the infant
Doctors who operated said they be-
lieved that when the child drank hy-
drant water in Syracuse tadpole was
taken into the stomach and that the
frog developed and lived on milk,
which was given the patient in large
quantities. Following the operation
the child improved rapidly and COM
plete recovery was practically assured,
