An UNDIGESTED DINhER

Worse than badly cooked dinner is
dinner that you cam digest. Doyou
know what it is to turn away from the
best food, ill-humored and without ap-
petite, though you know that it is dinner
time and that you need food to sustain
you? This is natures way of telling
you that your digestion is out of order.
Your stomach is not in a fit state to
absorb food if you eat it, or your blood
able to carry the necessary nourishment
to your nerves, brain and muscles.
First of all, put off eating until you are
hungry. If you eat when you are not
hungry you can't digest the food.
To put your blood in the right state
to derive good from your food, take DR..
Williams Pink Pills. Without any
purgative or weakening effect they
purify your blood and enrich it, sothat
you not only have an excellent appetite
for food, but are able to digest it COM
fortably and get benefit from it.
So many dyspeptics have been helped
by this simple treatment that every suf-
ferer from stomach trouble should try it.
A diet book, "What to Eat and How
to Eat" will be sent free on request by
the DR.. Williams Medicine Co., Schen-
ectady, N. Y. Your own druggist sells
DR.. Williams Pink Pills or box will
be sent by mail, postpaid, on receipt of
fifty cents.

A CIVIL. WAX RECORD.

Curator James of the State Museum at
Augusta is much pleased with curio re-
Gently presented by Percy Edgecomb, the
deputy State sealer of weights and mea-
sures. 1t is the Clothing Record" of
Go. b, 26lh Maine Volunteer Militia, and
was found by Mrs. Edgecomb in pile of
rubbish beside the road near Belfast.
He thought it shame for thu book to b.
thrown away, SO brought 1T to Augusta
and gave it to the museum.
1t Is of the regulation size Of the old
army record books, bound in leather and
excellently preserved, every word of the
writing being legible. Each man of the
company has page, on which is inscriD-
ca his name, rank, company, regiment,
nome, and the amount of clothing re-
c-lved. His signature, with that Of a
witness also appear.
The company was recruited from the
towns of Appleton, Belmont, Knox. Lib
erty, Montville and Searsmont. The
first page belonged to William H. Wood
cock, who enlisted on Sept. 10, 1862, in
Searsmont, and an interesting fact In
connection with his name is that with the
book was the parchment bearing his ap-
polntment as first sergeant of the COM
pany. signed by N. H. Hubbard as colonel
commanding and D. S. Simpson adjutant
of the regiment.
1t lis very likely that if any relative of
Sergeant Woodcock should care to have
the same as memento, the matter could
be very easily arranged with the Curator.

THEATRICAL OFFERINGS
new SERIAL IS
ON AT LIBERTY

The new program which opened yes
terday at the Liberty theater is par
ticularly notable. 1t includes the
opening chapter of one of the greatest
serial picture stories ever put on the
screen in Honolulu, The Mystery of
the Double Cross" in which Molly
King is featured with Leon Barry
George Beban appears in a serio comic
production, "a. Roadside Impresariop
which is a feature Of the first order
of merit. s.:
THE Mystery of the Double Cross
is a love story of battling situations
and gripping developments with an
element of mystery that keeps the
interest at highest tension. The
George .Beban feature is a Pallas-Para.
mount offering. The star is depicted
as a roaming Italian with a trick bear,
itself a character full of interest
While trying to earn enough money
in a restaurant to bail Bruno, the bear,
out of Jail, where he has been incar-
cerated for wrecking an apiary, the
Italian becomes involved IN a black
mailing plot directed against one OF
the prominent figures of the com
munity. The story is worked out in a
most appealing manner and the star
has put wonderful human touch into
the climax. .. n:

VIVID WESTERN .
STORY AT HAWAII

A William S. Hart picture Is the
feature Of the current program at the
Hawaii theater and probably that is
all that it is necessary to say to stir
the interest of Honolulu theatergoers.
1t should be added, however, that 1.-THE
Gun Fighter" in which the star Is ap-
pearing has been heralded widely as
one of his greatest pictures.
In the story the celebrated delin-
Gator of Western roles is seen as the
leader of band of outlaws, Cliff Hud-
speth, who has won for himself the
title of THE Killer" 1t is a story of
regeneration and self-sacrifice, but the
hero does not marry and live happily
ever after at the close. Instead he
yields up his own life to save the
heroine, played by Marjorie Wilson,
and the closing scene, one of intense
dramatic power, shows the girl riding
away to safety on Harris horse as he
sinks down to die in the desert.
New thrills are supplied in the
latest instalment of "The Railroad
Raiders which is part of the pro-
gram. Bert Carlson, formerly of the
Monte Carter company, who recently
began an engagement at the Hawaii,
is doing acceptable work at the organ.

'SLAVEMART'
At THE BIJOU

Combining the elements of dra'
matte interest and stirring animation
is the sensational film, The Slave
Mart" Kimberly feature production
il five reels, which opens at the BlJou
theater tonight. While not risque, as
number of local persons who were
given a private exhibition of the film
have Endorsed it, nevertheless it deals
with worldwide theme which has set
more than one mind bordering. Preg
nant truths are unfolded, exposing
conditions in metropolitan centers
that will hardly bear the light Of In
vestigation. For the reason that
youthful minds are so easily open to
impressions the management has de-
cided not to permit boys and girls un
der Is to the performances. ...
The Slave Mart" deals with beau
tiful Italian immigrant, Maria Ora
mazda, who on her arrival at New
York is lured by gang of human vul
lures under the guist Of friends OF
her aunt. Jack Spaulding, a society
man, happily senses what is under
way and intervenes to save Maria
from a terrible fate. .....
A friendship begun in such unusual
circumstances ripens into love. Maria
is admitted to the Spaulding home
and in the course of time goes as a
guest of the family to their seaside
home, where she meets a former
sweetheart of Jacks. In the mean
time in the course of an evenings en-
tertainment they witness cabaret
feature, "Zuleiia, the Odalisque in the
Slave Mart"
The old affection between Jack and
his former sweetheart takes on new
zest under the flame of their com
partnership. Maria, her heart sorely
wounded, in a moment of jealousy and
despair. resolves on revenge similar
to Zuleika's, but fate intervenes and
rounds out the love story in happy
way. r..
1t is a sensational picture that will
interest, featuring Marguerite Snow
and James Cruze.
