the polls on Sept. 10 next Will find plenty
of ballots ard should provide himself
with pencils a plenty and sharp for the

tutional amendments. That ballot is pro-
vided by the State, as usual.

ballot on which TO register his will in re-
gard 70 the approval Of the new Sewer

ite saw to 1t when the bill went through
the Legislature that a clause was in
serted commanding the secretary of State
to furnish the ballots for this matter-and
the State VIII pay the bill.
He will next receive a ballot on which
he will mark his approval or disapproval
Of the acceptance Of the proposed new
city charter. The city of Auburn. through
some oversight Of its legislative workers,

LEARNED
BY CONDUCTORS
WORTH STUDYING
"Must Keep in Condition." He Says,
Declaring Tanlac Helps Him

A street car conductors life is not
an easy one by any means and it does
rot tend to promote good health. A
conductor must be on his feet most of
the time, he is jolted and posted about,
to maintain his schedule he usually
bolts his food. To stick on the Job as
conductor one must possess an unusual
constitution, and even this, unless we'll
cared for may fail at some time
Stanley G. Williams, a conductor,
Of 258 14th street, Bangor. learned this
and he learned 1t in time to profit by
his learning. He tells a story of how
he learned this lesson. and his story
will interest hundreds of men and wo-
men here who possibly are suffering
just as he did, and wondering what
they can do to obtain relief
Il suffered from indigestion for about
four or five months" began Mr.. Will
lams. Il consulted several physicians
but got little relief. My stomach was
continually sour and the gas at times
was almost sitting.
Il was afraid to eat anything, for
every time l did I suffered terribly with
Indigestion the pains being so severe
at times that 1 was forced to lie down
and rest.
"A very good friend Of mine suggest
ed to me that I try Tanlac. He told
me he had taken Tanlac and that he
had been helped by it, I have now
taken three bottles of Tanlac and my
relief has been tenfold My stomach
is back in good shape all traces of in
digestion and sour stomach have dis
appeared.
The best part Of my story is that I
am able to eat three good meals a dav
row and l enjoy them, for my stomach
is we'll able to take care of most any,
thing | give it. I feel a hundred ner
cent. better in every way. NV work
does not seem as hard as It did, and
at night can sleep fine. Before took
Tanlac If l got three or four hours of
real sleep night I considered mvselr
lucky. l am pleased to recommend
Tanlac."
There is no wonder that vorlx
seemed such a burden to Mr.. Will
mans said the Tanlac Man. His
system was demanding relief"

duced in Augusta at these leading

Child Labor Law

Commissioner of Industry and La
bor Roscoe A. Eddy is much pleased
at the recognition by the Washington
authorities Of the correctness Of one
Of his departments systems and its
approval by the United States depart
ment of labor, having received official
notice from Grace Abbott director Of
the Child Labor Division, that the
proof Of age certificate used by the de-
partment conforms to and has been
accepted by the United States. so that
when the federal child labor law goes
goes into effect Sept. / next, employers
of young people will have but to sub
nit their certificates of age to the fed
eral inspectors and they will be ac-
cepted as proof that they are comply
Ing with requirements. Maine being
one of the very few states whose
forms or certificates in this matter ac-
cepted by the federal government as
correct and meeting every require
ment that could be asked, Mr.. Eddy is
naturally pleased with the correctness
of the plan, which he devised.
This does not Of course relieve the
manufacturers and employers Of Ia
hOr IN Maine III any way IL oiii III iN-i
obliga tions impressed upon them by
the state and federal laws; in fact, the
acceptance Of the age certificate Is
conditional on the compliance with all
the other laws. ,,
The new federal law regarding chllo
labor. which will go into eHect OH
Sept. / next, prohibits the employment
ir any capacity Of children under the
aee of IA years and also prohlous the
TRANSFORMATION in interstate or fofelsh
trade of goods or products mann1ac-
tnred bv them. 1t also provides for a
straight s-hour day. whereas under thc
Maine law children between the ages
of "a and 1s wears have been allowed
to work "a hours per week, with the
privilege of working longer oas
through the week for the purpose OF
having a shorter day at the end or the
weeks work.
Miss Abbott the director OF the feo-
eral child labor division or bureau
writes Commissioner Eddy that she
homes to come to Maine for person
a, investigation Of the workings OF the
Maine law. with the expectation ana
hone of securing information whlch
will prove Of value in placing the ne"
law in operation in other. especially

Hunting with jacklights has In the
last few years somewhat gone out Of
fashion, the penalty Of 500 acting as
decided persuader to the contrary,
but a case is occasionally reported, as
has Just been done to the office of the
Inland Fisheries and Game Commits
sion.
D. L. Cummings Of Houlton, chief
game warden for southern Aroostook
county, makes the report and the Of
fender was Jerry Sprague Of Linneus.
who on Aug. q was before the Houl-
ton municipal court on the charge of
hunting with jack lights and. being
found guilty, was fined 800 and s1098
costs. In default Of payment Of the
fine and costs, he was committed to
Eoulton Jail
The particulars Of the case have not
yet been received from the warden. so
that it is not known whether the ille-
gal hunting was done with the old
fashioned Jack lights or In the modern
manner, with the sharp. glarins auto
mobile lights, which have been sue
cessfully used for jacking, although
now prohibited by law, which says that
it shall be unlawful for any person to
hunt, chase. catch. kill or destroy any
wild bird or wild animal at any time
from an automobile, or by aid or use
Of any light or lights carried thereon
or attached thereto. It is also unlaw-
full to have in possession any bird or
animal thus killed. Not less than $40
nor more than 500 is the penalty.
