YOU CAN HAVE PINK CHEEKS

What causes the color to fade from
pink cheeks and red lips? In . word
it is thin blood.
When the fading color'in cheeks and
lips is accompanied by loss of bright
ness in the eyes and an increasing
heaviness in the step, the cause is to DO
sought in the state of the blood.
A hundred causes may contribute to
the condition of thin blood that is
known as anemia. Qverwork, lack Of
outdoor exercise, insufficient rest and
sleep, improper diet, these are . few
of them. The important thing 10 to re-
store the blood to normal, to build it
up so that the color will return to
cheeks and lips.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are the great
blood builder and invigorator. They be-
gin at once to increase the red corpus
cles in the blood and the new blood car
ries strength and health to every part
of the body. Appetite increases, digee:
tion becomes more perfect, energy and
ambition return.

BELFAST

AT the last meeting Of the season of
the reading department Of the Belfast
Women's Club. held Friday night. Mrs.
George r. Williamson gave the paper
The Old Covered Bridge" an original
story reminiscent Of her school days.
The paper was originally written for
the Woman's Alliance Of the First
Parish and read before that society
last winter. 1t at once ranked with the
| best ever given before the society and
one OF the best that Mrs. Williamson
has ever written. It is extremely poet
ical, with mixture Of pathos and hui
NOR. its descriptions are particularly
vivid and beautiful, and Mrs. William
sons reading OF it added not a little
to it's charm. About 25 members and
guests of the club were present and
Mrs Essie p. CarIe the new president.
presided.
1t Is expected that meeting in re-
gard to the baseball league for the
coming season will be held in Skowhe-
gan some time next week to determine
what teams will enter and some of the
essential points Of the matter Belfast
is anxious to enter into league with
Skowhegan. Madison, and other teams
between these points and it is under
stood that Skowhegan is ready for the
fray. Madison is said to be doubtful
but will most likely fall into line. Some
of the best games of last season were
played here against these teams and
it is hoped that league will material
ize. Elmer Foote of Boston was in Bel
fast last week and it is said he would
like to play here this season. Foote
was captain Of the team for two sea-
sons, going to Rockland last year.
where he captained the team. It is I'M
derstood that Rockland will not have
a professional team this season.

afternoon after school at the home of

joyed a very delightful hour The SUBJ
