THIS BLOOD BUILDER
PROMOTES DIGESTION
Many People Who Have Been Helped Now Recommend
Reliable Remedy to Those Who Suffer

There is only one way to build up
a rundown system if the blood is
pale and thin. Many diseases are
caused by thin blood. Other dis
eases such as rheumatism and in
fiuenza cause the blood 10 become
thin and the wasting effect Of these
disorders cannot be combated sue
cessfully until the blood is restored
10 it's normal condition.
Palor, nervousness, indigestion,
sieeplessness, headaches, dizzy
spells, Shortness of breath, palpita-
ton of the heart, these are a few Of
the symptoms of an anemic, or
bloodless condition. Some OF them
are not naturally associated with
thin blood but the quickest way to
rich and red.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills do one
thing. They build up the blood by
increasing the number Of red COR
puscles. AS this is done the blood
becomes richer red and Is able to
carry more oxygen. the great sup
porter of human life. As the blood
improves In quality the tissues of
the body are better nourished and
the functions of the body are better
performed. The glands of the stom-
ach are stimulated and the first sign
of Improvement is usually a better
appetite and better digestion. So
true is it that improved appetite and
digestion follow building up the
blood that it is recognized princi-
pie in medicine that there is no tonic
for the stomach that is not a tonic

IT Is reported upon good authority
That the morning train arriving in
Skowhegan at TAO is to be discon-
tinued early In May. This will again
leave Skowhegan in the same situ-
alton since 1919 when this train was
taken off and residents were without

ments were made by The Kennebec
Journal and the Waterviile Sentinel
TO send the papers by auto truck.
BUSINESS men were without mail and
the work of the carriers at the post

of the community at large the board

and make some step to keep on this

FOR
THE COUNTRY GARAGE

The motorist who has had even a
season or SO of experience knows well
that he will never know when or
where trouble is going to strike. 1t
may be from no apparent fault of his
car-just his day to have trouble,
that's all, or at least so it seems when
the momentary hard luck comes.
1t is this seeming idiosyncrasy that
makes it a tremendous relief to find
a well equipped garage along the way
just where it will do the most good,
in those times when something has
gone wrong and -'feller needs a
friend"
One thing that is essential to the
well-equipped garage in any locality
is electricity for light, power and bat
terry charging and, with the develop
ment of the individual electric light
and power plants, garage owners IN
the remoter districts are finding the
way to enlarged possibility for ser
vice and increased opportunity for
making money.
There is no way of lighting a ga
rage after night equal to electric
lights. There is no trouble lamp as
good as the electric bulb on the end
OF an extension cord, with plenty of
room to carry it around and under
and behind and get so good strong
light just where it is needed.
One of these electric plants that
will run motors, say up to half-horse-
power, will take care of much of the
light machinery in use about the ga
rage-air compressor, lathe, drill
press and so on. The power is avail
able at the turn of a switch, more
satisfactory arrangement than to de-
pend upon gasoline engine.
A most satisfactory feature OF cleo
trio service for the garage is the
charging of automobile storage bat
,teries. This can be accomplish with
the Independent electric plants. The
writer recently saw 16 six-volt stor-

Greatest Weather For
Corn Ever Known Here

This is said to be the greatest
weather possible for corn, while
tobacco is being benefited by it.
The corn, which is abundant and
gives promise of being a record
breaking crop, is green, owing to
the continued rains, farmers state
and has grown to unusual size !;
but this weather, they assert, will
ripen it rapidly thus making an
abundance of fodder. The value
of corn is recognized by the av-
age farmer these days, and the
prospects are good for the results
from this crop showing, compara=
lively, far above that of tobacco,
