THE PROPER COURSE
Information of Priceless Value to Every
Belfast Citizen.

How to act in an emergency is knowl-
edge of inestimable worth, and that is
particularly true of the diseases and ills
of the human body. If you suffer with
kidney backache, urinary disorders, or
any form of kidney trouble, the advice
contained in the following statement
should add valuable asset to your store
of knowledge. What could be more con-
vincing proof of the efficiency of Doan's
Kidney Pills than the statement of Bel
fast woman who used them and who pub
licly tells of the benefit derived?
Mrs. Hattie Wallace, Sc Waldo avenue,
Belfast, says: ''Doan's Kidney Pills did
me world of good when suffered from
kidney trouble. They cured me of this
complaint and during the past few years
have had no more trouble from my kid
neys. have previously recommended
Doan's Kidney Pills and what l said in
my former statement, which l gave ill

THE MILLIKEN REGIMENT.

The so-called depot brigade of the 9th
division, of which the First Maine Heavy
Artillery forms part, has been abolish
ed and the skeleton National Guard regi-
ments of New England which have form
ed this brigade, are now designated as
corps troops" and are to be used as they
stand for whatever service Gen PERISH
ing may direct. 1t is evident that these
skeleton regiments are to be transported
to France as soon as ships are available.
They are quite likely to be split up still
more and utilized anywhere by COM
panies, squads or individuals that they
may be required. No effort will be made
to maintain the identity of the COM
mands, nor will any effort be made by
the war department to recruit them to
full strength. The secretary of war told
the New England governors that it was
found inexpedient to fill up these New
England regiments with drafted men.
Just why this couldn't be done, he did
not explain. 1t will be recalled that
about 5000 men of New England were re-
Gently taken South to fill up the units of
Southern division Of the national army.
1t seems as if these men should have
been used to fill up New England skele-
ton regiments, so that men from this
section of the country might at least
serve together.
Taking it all in all, the Milliken regi-
ment doesn't seem to have what might
be called Square deal" 1t deserved
better treatment, but in the end it may
even yet have chance to give a good
account of itself, even though the war
department seems disposed to obliterate
its identity. Press.
