Accident Insurance
Is 1t Worth to You
Fifty Cents Per Year?

No man or woman who rides in a
public omnibus, street car. railway
car, taxi cab or automobile, or in q
private automobile, or walks across
public highway knows when he or
she may meet with a mishap.
This danger is constantly on the
increase and everyone should not
only guard against accidents, but
should safeguard themselves against
the results OF accidents which can
not be foreseen.
The Kennebec Journal, through a
thoroughly reliable insurance COM
pany, has arranged to insure every
one of its subscribers on payment of
yearly amount so trifiing as to be
hardly worth considering for the SER
vice rendered, and no one of its sub
scribers need be without this protec-
ton another day.
The Journal does not undertake
to promote questionable schemes of
any sort, and before entering into
this insurance offer the publishers
very carefully looked into the mat
ter. and finally submitted the whole
proposition to the Insurance Com
missioner Of the State of Maine. We
have his letter endorsing not only
the insurance company but the pol
icy itself as being solid and worth
while.
On another page you will find this
matter explained in detail. Fill out
the coupon and send in at once.
Surely the value to you of being
tected while riding in team or au-
tomobile, either your own or for hire,
is worth more than SOC. per year.
And there is no red tape, no medi-
cal examination for you to take, no
increase in subscription rates. Just
two requirements for you to fulfill:
The first, that you must not be less
than Is nor more than 20 years Of
age: the second, that you must be a
registered subscriber to the Daily
Kennebec Journal.

Activity in the lines of school

Why?
DO WE SNEEZE2

svHE nose is lined with membranes,
back OF which Is network OF
very fine nerves which are ex-
tremely sensitive. The function OF
these membranes is TO catch and hold
the impure matter which comes into
the nose when air is inhaled Sneez-
ing arises from the involuntary action
of these nose nerves in attempting to
clear the nose suddenly and violently.
II only occurs when particularly
quick Job has TO be done. Otherwise
the irritating matter is taken care Of
by the SecretionS In Ihe nose itself
Smoke. pepper or other irritmts
cause SneeZing because they rasp
against this fine network OF nerves
and the latter seek TO rid themselves
of the foreign substances in the quick
est possible manner. Colds make us
sneeZe because the nose is clogged up
with mucuS and other matter and ma
ture is trying TO clear out the nose
channels after all other methods have
failed. (Copyrght)

The new comedy from his pen is call

days, beginning Sunday, April 9th.
Mr.. Hughes has taken as his hero

behind by Shane O'Mealia, when he
goes to America, with the promise
that he will soon send for her. Shane
has i'll luck in New York, included in
which is the fact that Judy Grady
falls in love with him. Finally the
girl is brought over by friends, and
misunderstands matters between
Shane and Judy, and the tantrum that
she flies into keeps the comedy hit

STEEL PRICES GO UP

Youngstown, Ohio. - Independent
steel manufacturers of this district
have raised prices So and $3.50 a ton.
Wheeling reports indicate that prices
have been increased there, as we'll as
at Pittsburgh. The increase will be of
interest to workers who were told that
their high" wages made it impossible
to produce steel and that housing and
allied industries were handicapped.
The public press glorifed the steel
magnates every time they smashed
wage rates which are now verging
closely to pre-war figures. No COM
ment is made, however, when steel
prices are pushed up.
New York.-Judge Gary of the steel
trust, announces that steel prices are
too low and that the trust will follow
independents in raising prices.

"What'S i'm q Name?"
By MILDRED MARSHALL
FACES about your name; It's history; mean
ing; whence IL was derived; signihcancs;
your lucky day and lucky jewel.
FELICIA.

- ELICIA has the augury of happi-
ness since that Is the significance
of her name. She Is the feminine
OF Felix, which seems to have been an
agnomen assumed by any individual at
Will when he considered himself un-
usually fortunate. Ii appears first In
the reign of Herod Agrippa. 1t means
happy" and has given rise to all man
ner of words and names signifying
good fortune in modern languages.
There are eleven masculine saints
by that name In the Roman calendar,
and Felice, the feminine, first appears
In Italy. Spain and the south of
France. From Felice have come Fe-
licia In England and Felise In France.
There was a Felicia who was queen Of
Navarro in 1857. The old Romans had
a Goddess of Happiness whom they
called Felicitas. The slayemartyr of
Carthage who suffered with st. Per
petua was so-called, and there was an
other Felicitas under Antonius Plus,
who, with her seven sons, presented a
Christian parallel to the mother In the
Maccabees.
Through the votaries of the young
slave-m martyr Felicia became popular
In Italy, and this same character Is re-
sponsible for the rise to favor OF Fell
cite In France. Faustina Is an Italian
form of the same name, but has never
had popular favor. Felicia has always
been the fayorite form in English
speaking countries. though Felicity
was much used among the Puritans,
and still prevails In religious commu-
mites
The pearl is Felicia's talismanic
stone. 1t insures her charm, afrabil-
ity and sincere friendships. Monday
is her lucky day and her lucky mum
Der The daisy signifying simplicity
is her flower. (copyright)

ALIENS COURT
DISHONEST TERN

Topeka, Kan.-The United States

preme court both declare Governor
Aliens court of industrial relations is
merely a board or commission, and is
in no sense a properly constituted
court.
While neither supreme court has
indicated hostility to what Allen
would accomplish they do resent an
invasion of their jurisdiction by
mountebank methods.
The United States supreme court
has made this reference to the Allen
handcuffers: 1.-THE board, miscalled
a court"
This declaration is identical to the
position taken by Justice Burch, OF
the Kansas supreme court, who ruled
that Aliens scheme is simply an ad-
mnistrative board, and that it was
called a court 'as piece of legisla.
tive strategy"
This dishonesty of the authors OF
the law which Justice Burch charit
ably refers to as Legislative strate
gy," was done for a purpose. Gov
ernor Allen realized that if his boare
could secure the standing of cour'
in the public mind it would gain the
support of that large element tina
believe courts, as kings, can do M
wrong.
