HOW TO Get RID.
OF RHEUMATISM
The Fruit Medicine
Will Always Relieve
You of This Terrible
Disease
"Fruit "a -tives" 70 the Remedy
Delmar, New York.

II have great pleasure in writing
you about "Fruit-a- tives." I have
found great relief in them. I have
had Rheumatism for six months and
have suffered much pain, but not
laid up with it. Have tried about
everything I heard about without
much relief. Then 1 took "Fruit-a-
tives" and they gave me great relief.
The swelling is almost gone and I
feel good-like myself again. l can
recommend Fruit -a-tives'-with a
good heart-to anybody"
Mrs. EvALYN RADLIFF.
In order to relieve rheumatism, the
blood must be purified. No other
medicine in the world will purify the
blood so promptly and thoroughly as
Fruit "a tives." This fruit medicine
acts on the three great eliminating
organs-the bowels, kidneys and skin
and is the most reliable and Scien-
tific remedy ever discovered for the
relief and correction of rheumatism.
Fruit a -tives," great medical dis
covery and made from fruit juices
and tonics, is the greatest blood puri-
ficr in the world.

Leaves 1t to the Public.

Editor Kennebec Journal:
In reference to the letter, appearing
in the kennebec Journal, March 1st,
from Soldier ESS," signed l.. E.
Moody. l do not know what the
"ESS" signifies-but evidently it does
not mean much.
He" should be examined as to
"his" sanity.
His" queries are irrational and
entirely uncalled for, and his" state
ments are so wild that to answer
them would be the height OF folly.
am willing to let "his" statements
stand "unchallenged" or unanswered,
whatever "he" may deem fit to call
it, so that the public may see what a
fine and gallant Soldier-ESS he "
is.

THE ARMY AND NAVY

Concerning the proposed orasuc
reductions of the army and navy
forces some may say: THE only way
to retrench is to retrench." Well,
would one, because forced by econo-
my to discharge his chauffeur, send
his car to the junkshop? There is
reason in this matter Of reducing the
personnel of the army and navy as
well as in other things. There is a
point in reduction below which 1t
would be unpatriotic as well as un-
wise in other respects to go. II we
are to keep a standing army at the
louest practicable position and de-
pend as an alternative Oh national
guard properly trained and officered
we must provide officers. And while
we expect in this as in ether matters
the parties concerned TO be preju-
diced nevertheless having selected a
depC ndable expert we depend, or
should in large degree at least, on his
coEclusions.
There have been those who would
cut the army to $4,000 but the de-
termined stand taken by General
Pcrshing aided by common sense
which occasionally reveals itself will
prevent such wicked folly. But while
the war department called for an ap-
preparation Of s294,000,0O0 the House
committee on appropriations reduced
q by forty-four millions but finally,
after much discussion and dissent,
reported in favor of keeping the army
10 $4,000. The Senate is expected to
Increase this number and the two
branches in conference compromise
on an army Of around 125.000. for in
such fashion is legislation too often
shaped
The ,avy bill is not so far ad-
vanccd and will be among the last to
leave the committee on appropria-
tions. Secretary Denby has taken
what, from the navy's point Of view,
Is n conservative position. Assist
ant Secretary Roosevelt made STIR
ring address before the committee re-
mnding his hearers of his father. He
would have the navy kept at the ra-
ito fixed by the Conference and per-
fected in efficiency. I'VE will make
great economies but we must not at
tempt to make too great economies"
he told them. There are now hun
dred thousand men in the navy but
even with this force he declared that
our big fighting ships are only ap-
proximately 60 per cent manned.
Those who would do away with the
navy he characterized as "soft-hcad-
ed pacifists" whereas those who en-
gineercd and carried through the
Washington Conference he termed
"hard headed pacifists." He said our
economies should be judged in terms
OF the future. II the country did not
have n respected navy under the
present terms of a reduced navy ra-
ito II would not be In position to
achieve at the next conference fur
ther reduction In the ratio.
Congress is not in this respect in
o way to win popularity from either
faction OF extremists. those so en-
crossed in army and navy affairs that
they see little else, and those so en-
amorod OF vision Of perfect peace
that they forget the world in which
they live. Congress, no more than
the individual may hew to the line
without letting the chips fall.

Declines to Be
Husband No. 5

Mrs. Florence Ethel Walker, Bos-
ton. who claims Oscar Shea of Bath
as her second husband will not get
husband, No.ass as she announced, for
that gentleman, Elwood r. Waugh
her business associate, respectfully
declines to serve in that capacity
According 20 his statement, he is not
anxious for the role selected for him
by Mrs. Walker She says there
must be some mistake but says that
the wedding will he postponed until
q later date than next Monday.
! 1t seems the bridegroom elect is
positive he was never consulted be-
! fore Mrs. Walker went shopping for
license and as he has had one cX-
pericnce in married life he is decided
in his statement that he docs not care
for another. He was granted a di-
vorce from his first and only wife on
the grounds of misconduct.
Mr.. Waugh declares that his rela
tions with Mrs. Walker have been
purely platOnic and he thinks perhaps
the lady got her idea of marriage to
him from a plant made in her pres
ence one day to the effect that eat
ing in restaurants made him % tired
he was almost ready 20 get married"
While highly embarrassed by the pub
licity, he will continue to live at 120
Appleton street, the same address as
Mrs Walker but in single blessed
ness.
Mrs. Walker received a theater
ticket Tuesday from a man who
wanted to meet her last night.
The item in Tuesdays Times about
Mrs. Florence E. Walker having the
marrying habit in which she claimed
Ter second husband was Oscar Shea
of Bath, has started Faith people Won
dering. The only Oscar Shea most
Bath people can remember was a son
of the late John +. Shea and lived on
lower Middle street and moved to
New York some time ago. His wife's
rame was Lena and he is still alive
and runs on a boat or the Atlantic
which crosses the pond on regular
trips so that would eliminate him.

The last time the feat was performed
was in the 1921 series in which the
