For Poor Appetite and
Weak Digestion "

The man who can't eat doesn't feel
much like working, and the man with
a weak stomach doesn't get much
pleasure out of eating, Your stomach
is very important to your health, work
and happiness. Don't abuse it, don't
neglect it, and when, for one cause or
another, your digestion goes wrong.
and you lose appetite, be kind to
your stomach. All it needs is a little
rest, and few days doctoring with
Il. F" Atwood's Medicine. Very
soon you will see the improvement in
your appetite, and with the relish for
food, comes the strength to digest it.
For this old family remedy helps the
stomach, bowels and liver, and re-
news good appetite and sound dges-
ton.

For the past few days condition
has existed among the shoe factories of
this part Of New England that it is
believed is wholly unprecedented. says
the Portland Press. Because Of the
exceedingly damp weather, the leather
that is used in the factories has abb
sorbed so much moisture that it has
been necessary to start up the steam
plants and heat the buildings as they
are kept hot in the winter. In some Of
the shops it has been done at night af-
ter the help have gone home. and the
windows opened again in the morning
to cool the rooms off so the work people
could stay in them and live. It was
found. however, that doing this did not
help matters much for when the win
dows were opened the moisture very
soon came rolling in and undid the
work that the steam did during the
night. For this reason, therefore, some
Of the factories. including two in this
city. have shut down for the past few
days and the steam heat has been kept
on full tilt to drv the shops and the
leather SO work could be resumed when
ever the weather conditions change
somewhat. 1t is said that wet leather
wastes to such an extent that it might
Just as well be thrown away or work
stopped on it because II the cutters and
others tried to handle it they would

more than a shutdown until matters

It IL a remarkable fact that sharks
Of various kinds and size, which had
been commonly seen about the harbor
and often caught In Canadian fish weirs
a few miles away, have not been seen
this season in the neighboring waters.
says the Eastport correspondent Of the
Bangor News. Not even a lone mack
erel shark-now found to be excellent
for food. and formerly caught about
the bays-has put in an appearance so
far this summer. and it has been about
two years since whale came into the
surrounding waters near enough to be
seen by the Dominion islanders or ma
tives OF this city. Sharks were at one
time very common about the bays and
usually followed the schools Of prolific
herring now being gathered up for the
sardine factories, but the first shark
has vet to come near Eastport. and
their absence so far has caused no un-
easiness, as they are worthless. except
ing the handsome looking "mackerer
variety.

"MOLLY MAKE-BELIEVE'
STARS MARGUERITE CLARK
Delightful in Famous Players Adapta-
ton OF Nationally Popular story.

Delightful In Famous Players Adapta-
ton of Nationally Popular story.
Marguerite Clark, the dainty little
Famous Players star, who has been
seen recently in Mice and Men and
"Out Of the Drifts is soon to appear
at the Alta Sunday and Monday in an
adaptation Of the universally popular
magazine story and book, Molly
Make Believe" which has just been
converted into a Paramount Picture
Appearing first in one of the big
national magazines, Molly Make Be
lieve" won instant popularity and
was later printed in book form. In
this second form 1t won new laurels
and became one of the most widely
distributed gift-books in circulation.
The tremendous popularity of Miss
Clark and the widespread interest in
Eleanor Hallowel AbDott's book make
this a notable production.
The story Of Molly Make-Believe'
is briefly as follows:
Molly Meredith is a hugely imagin-
ative little girl, bubpling over with
energy, who discovers 10 her amaze
ment tat her grandmother is in Sc
rious financial straits. she promptly
runs away to the city, taking her
small brother Bobby with her, and
makes her temporary home with the
engineer of the freight train which
she unceremoniously Communicated
for the iournev. Through an accident
on the road, Molly has become ac-
quainted with Carl Stanton, a young
official of the road.
While wandering in search of a
job Molly comes upon a little cripple
girl for whom she spins queer tales
and so ingratiates herself in the
childs affections that she becomes a
frequent visitor at the Wendal home.
1t is here that she sees Carl Stanton
again. at q masquerade ball In an
attempt to discover her identity, ne
falls and braks his leg His fiancee,
Cornelia Bartlett, has become increas-
ingly impatient at Carl's business pre-
occupation, and now that he is in
jured, she leaves MIN for Palm
Beach.
Molly meanwhile, is having no
success in finding employment and
finally conCeiyes the idea of starting
correspondence institution devoted
to the cheering of the crippled and the
lonely. Carl, still suffering from the
sting Of Cornelia's indifference, sees
the advertisement which Molly inserts
under another name, and decides to
subscribe 70 the service.
Recognizing her first subscriber,
Molly writes him exceedingly cheerful
letters and finally visits him in the
guise of a messenger boy, without re-
vealing her identity The unexpected
return of Molly while Molly is making
another visit at the home of the con-
valescent precipitates a very painful
scene and nearly breaks the little
girls heart. But of course it all comes
out well in the end.
In support of Miss Clark, Director j.
Searle Rawley has gathered an excel
lent cast including j. w. Johnston,
Edwin Mordant, Mahlon Hamilton
Gertrude Norman and several other
well known players.
