History Of Augusta-We hare not
forgotten that the story of Augustus
past should be written. Secretary
Clarke has been honored with the
Office of president of the Kennebec
Historical society. This society de-
serves the highest local support and
everyone interested in the history of
our city should join. The cost is only
so cents a year but the opportunity
is fimitless.
Amer1canlzation - A Community
committee has been formed to study
this question and work out some
plan for Augusta. Our city is some
what different from the ordinary
American city but such as it is this
problem should receive some public
attention. Secretary Clarke has been
asked to serve on this committee to
represent the Chamber of Commerce.
Employment bureau-The employ
ment bureau is still serving Augusta
people. Unlike other Chambers of
Commerce we as freely serve nom
members as members and through
efficient administrat ton of Miss Doris
Ham we have been instrumental in
bringing many employers and en-
ployees together during the past
month. We invite even more extern

The barge Devon which has been
unloading coal at the Stone & Coop
err wharf, got into difficulty Wednes-
day afternoon when it was being
turned around so that it would be
ready when the tug came up river.
The method OF turning it, is to hitch
the stern to shore and then allow
the current to swing the bow out and
down river. When this was being
done, the bow caught at the june
ton Of two logs in the boom and as
the current forced the boat against
the end Of the log 1t was found i'm
possible to move the boom enough
to allow the end of the boat to
swing clear. The difficulty was final
~ remedied by connecting the stern
rope to the steam -windlass in such
a manner that the stern was pulled
up river enough to free the bow
This boat will probably go down
river on the tide this morning.

Have You Piles ?
Then xou Have Something to Learn

Then You Have Something to Learn
Thousands who have piles have not
learned that quick and pernnane Mt re-
lief can only be accomplished with in
ternal medicine. Neither cutting nor
any amount of treatment with ONT
ments and suppositories will remove
the cause.
Bad circulation causes piles. There
is a complete stagnation of blood in
the lower bowel and a weakening of
the parts. DR.. J. s. Leonhardt was
first to find the remedy. His prescrip-
ton. UEM-ROID, is now sold by all
druggists. DIR. Leonhardt tried it in
1000 cases with the marvellous record
of success in % per cent. and ,hen de-
cided it should be sold under rigid
money-back guarantee.

side applications. Get a package of
HEM-ROID from Fletcher's Pharmacy

relief to thousands and should do the
same for you--it seldom fails-Adv.
