SICKNESS IN
THE FAMILY
Means Unusual Strain on The Nerves
Of Every Member
10 q Time When Q Safe and Reliable
Blood Duiidins Tonic viii Save
Much SUFFERING

At this time when there Is sickness
in 20 many families. the burden that
Is being borne by those not afflicted
will result in much subsequent suf-
ferins unless steps are taken to build
up the health to withstand the unu-
sual strain.
Overwork and worry are the most
common causes of neurasthenia, that
loss of nerve force which makes so
many people irritable, sleepless, mel
ancholy and dyspeptic. The remedy
and the preventative is to keep the
blood built up by the use of a good.
non alcoholic tonic so that the nerves
will be well nourished. This pre-
vents the form of nervous debility
so commonly encountered after Sc
we're epidemics in which thost not
actually stricken are subjected to the
most severe worry and strain. This
is strikingly shown in a recent case.
Work, worry and sickness in her
family we're the causes Of a break

became stronger generally. my stom-
ach was no longer sour and the vom-
iting and belching stopped.
"Dr. Williams Pink Pills have my
hearty recommendation and always
will as 1 have great confidence in
them"
The nerves get all their nourish-
ment through the blood and the quail
ity Of the blood determines the
amount Of nourishment the nervous
system receives. There is no way Of
restoring weak nerves, no way of get
ting medicine to the nerves, except
through the blood.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills have one
direct action, to build up the blood
and increase its capacity to carry
nourishment to the tissues of the
body. In this generalized improve
ment the nerves quickly share and
the treatment has been successful in
relieving many nervous conditions,
particularly cases in which NAL nu-
triton is factor, such as nervous
headache, neuralgia and incipient ST.
Vitus' dance. OF course their direct
action makes them an ideal remedy
for anemia. chlorosis. pallid and sal
low compilations and such debilitat-
ing disorders as the grip or after
effects Of influenza.
There has been no increase in the
price OF DR.. Williams Pink Pills.

Tho Golden Star

He lay upon the battle field,
His face was young and fair,
No mother heard his last farewell
Nor knelt beside him there.
The sunbeams kissed his pallid brow
And fingered in his hair
Until. among their glittering rays,
A golden star shown there
From the far sun-lit paths of Heaven
An angel hoated down;
She paused to take the golden star
And placed it in a crown.
Somewhere a mothers breaking heart,
Somewhere a sorrowing home;
But He who notes each sparrow's fall
Will not forsake His own.
Mother. the life God lent to you
He's taken back again;
O. blessed thought. your precious boy
Lived not his life in vain.

AVALANCHE OF BUYING

Augustus Liberty Loan Drive Is
ended-but the final adding up Of
subscriptions has not started yet.
Hard driven bank officials and
bank clerks worked all Saturday at
ternoon and in some cases deep into
the night. just taking subscriptions
and Strengthening out all the last
day kinks. They will not be able to
figure their totals until sometime to-
day-and the final figures will ap-
pear in tomorrow's paper.
Since Augusta went over the top
Friday. the only interest now is as to
how far it went. Judged by Satur-
days subscription Names Capital
City ended with regular avalanche
Of buying.
The Boy Scouts made their final
squirt on Saturday and did we'll.
Spurred on by the suspicion that
Germany was trying to slow up the
loan and armed with the slogan.
Double up" they went at it hard
through the closing week and un-
doubtedly dug up a great many sub
scriptions that would not otherwise
have been made.
The Augusta Liberty Loan Com
mittee passed a vote Of thanks to the
Boy Scouts for their good services at
the meeting Friday. which fact was
inadvertently omitted in the account
Of the meeting in Saturdays Jour-
nal.
The following telegram was re-
ceived Saturday:
George E. Macomber. Chairman Lib
erty Loan Committee, Augusta. Me.
We have received informal advices
that your community has exceeded its

The committees Of China, Fayette
and Gardiner reported nothing.
Rome and West Gardiner commit
tees worked with the mems commit
tees and the two committees turned
in one report in common.
Considering the we'll recognized
difficulties of soliciting for this loan
it is felt that the showing of the wo-
mems committees of kennebec coun-
ty was a particularly good one and
that a very considerable part of the
success of the loan in this county
was due to the women workers.
