LITTLE PLAY Time
FOR Mr.. STULTz

Summer time may be play time for
lot of people, but there have been
fw minutes when H. B. Stultz Of
Gardiner has had time to play this
year. Mr.. Stultz does paper-hang-
ing, painting, interior decorating and
furniture refinishing.
But fully as important as are these
lines he makes an especial feature
or ref1nishing old floors. Everyone
knows what that means these days.
When floor is refinished' 1t is made
to look almost as good as it was the
day when it was first laid. Mr.. Stultz
does this with his electrical machin-
cry and uses with it a preparation
that absolutely eliminates dust.
Many householders have been away
from home. They have realized that.
during their absence, is provided an
ideal time to have the interior of
their houses done over. Reposing
confidence in Mr.. Stultz, the people
of Gardiner have turned their homes
right over to him and told him to "go
to it" On the return from their trips
they have found glistening floors
where, when they went away were
floors that we're SCARED and black
ened; they have found handsome new
walls where there were broken plas-
ter and torn wall paper. New homes
have been made from old and Mr..
Stultz had in this way increased the
value of many a home.
If perchance any householder
wishes to do his own work. then the
Stultz place in Gardiner will be able
to supply the wall paper, paints and
varnish, for he carries a big line of
these and especially features Bay
State products.

SUMMER GUESTS
LIKE The WILLOW

Summer visitors every day throng
the streets Of Augusta. Many of them
climb the broad fight of stirs at 2S3
Water street and eat at the Willow
dining room. And, having eaten there,
they delight in telling of the neat
ness of everything, the excellence of
the cooking and the real honey" at
mosphere Of this attractive place.
The Willow, as result, has been
potent force in making these visitors
glad they have visited the Capital
City of Maine.
The Willow Dining room is the only
restaurant where all the food is
cooked by electricity. 1t is .. feature
worth while, for the evenness of the
heat provided insures a perfection Of
flavor that can be secured in no other
way. Then, too, all the dishes used
Tor cooking are Of aluminium and they
are kept with such scrupulous clean

face in them" Mr.. and Mrs. William
Fl. Condor, who conduct The Willow.
know what the people want to eat,
They know, too, that their customers
want the best Of food, cooked in the
best possible way. This is always

Just six -ears ago August 9, the
! Willow Dining room began it's life in
Augusta, and since that the business

summer visitors will spread the fame

MANY A WORRY
IS NOW BANISHED
"Send 1t to the laundry"

Send 1t to the laundry"
Everybody has heard the advice
and nearly all housewives are heed
ing it these days. If there is anything
more than anything else that wears
the nerves of the woman of the
house" to q ragged edge" it is to
think Of wash day." especially in hot
weather.
But with the coming of the modern
laundry, the terrors of Blue Monday
have passed away and it has now
come to be known pretty generally
as Sunny Monday" And this is all
due to the efficiency of the laundry.
In this great change the Augusta
Steam Laundry, of which E. E. Brad
bury is the owner. has had a promi-
nent part. The Augusta Steam laun-
dry started its career in 1891, but two
years ago it ceased to be a corpora
tion and Mr. Bradbury became the
sole owner. For many years 1t has
been under his guiding hand and it
has gown in it's activity and in it's
usefulness.
It~is a comforting thought to the
housewife to know that when the
soiled clothes of the family need
cleaning all she has to do is to step
to the telephone and notify, the Au-
gusta Steam laundry that her wash"
is ready. The clothes are collected.
and brought back just when she
wants them-rough dry or ironed.
So well does the Augusta Steam
laundry do it's work that not only

PURE FOOD THAT
STANDS THE TEST

All America now demands pure
food, and rightly. Particularly do the
citizens of this republic want their
dairy products pure and they are
anxious to know that, while they
can't see the conditions under which
the particular goods are produced,
the milk and cream are what they
should be.
A striking example of what a mod
ern dairy should be is to be found in
the Meadow Maid Dairy of Augusta.
owned and conducted by Forrest A.
Barbour, formerly State dairy in
spector. When Mr.. Barbour on March
/, 1925, started the Meadow Maid
dairy, he determined that it should be
as good as could be provided. He
realized that it meant the outlay of
considerable capital>and that it would
take time to get the business he
hoped would result. Now, less than
six months have passed since the
dairy started. Success has crowned
