Rockland, Maine.—“ I was troubled
for a long time with twin* in my back
and side, and was miserable in every
way. I doctored
until 1 was dis

thought I should
never get well. I
read a testimonial
about Lydia E.

thought I would
try ft. After tak

was cured, and
never felt so well
in all my life. I recommend Lydia £.

SKIT Sim OF
CIVIL SEMICE
SYSTEM
[ The twenty-fifth annual report of the
! United Btate* Civil Service Commission,
which has just M.*en received In Augusta,
j lx particularly Interesting, including as
It does a brief survey of the growth of
he merit system during the first twen
five years of Its existence.
I he civil service law went into effect
: January 16, 16H3. At first only 13.&24
positions were subject to examination,
practically one-third of which were In
' Washington. There are now about 225,-
J 000 positions subject to examinations,
approximately 1,500,000 persons have been
; • xamined, and more than 350,000 have
ia-en appointed since the enactment of
i i ■ law. The examinations, embracing
! a great variety of subjects, are conduct*
j <>l in every part of tho Unbed States,
• Isthmus of Panama. Hawaii, Porto
| uico and the Philippines.
On June 30. 100 S, the officers and em
| ployes of the executive civil service
| ?. unbered approximately 352.000, and of
these 206,637 were subject to competi
' tlvc examination tender civil service
j rules. Since then about 15,000
j class postmasters have been included
1 within the classified civil service. Tho
000 or mor»- enumerators required to
j take the next decennial census will
I doubtless be subject to examination un
| der civil service regulations.
| The competitive system has been given
;i fair trial and that It Is Infinitely bet
! ter than the pntronage system has been
| thoroughly established. President Cleve-
I land said of tho system: “The soheme
j for reform In fho methods of adminis
tering the government is no longer an
! experiment, and wherever tho reform
i inis gained foothold It has steadily ad
\ a need in the esteem *>t those charged
i with public administrative duties, tvhllo
the* people desiring gpod government
have constantly been confirmed In their
high esteem of Its value and efficiency.”
The report says: “It h«« produced
groat economy and efficiency and t'he
| putyle servic e has i»een improved in hon
«*ty and general character. Unneces
sary positions have l>w«n abolished. Im
proved met hods of husintss have been
rendered possible and stability given to
V'ic service. Superfluous work Ik no
longer devised to create places for fa
vorites. JOmployeoe released from po
litical and personal obligations ure re
oulred to do more and better work.
The success attending the reform In tho
Federal sorvlre has lad to Its adoption
In the program for the reform of state
and municipal governments. Blx states
and nearly on# hundred cities have
adopted the system In greater or less
degree for their services. ’•
In tie postal Mcrvlce promotions have
been put upon n more satisfactory ba
sis, and tho passage of a now salary
laiv h i* facilitated obtaining cltglbles in
the first and seoond-ciaMs offices, par
t-ioularly in the South and West. This
has chocked an ulaimtug incroaso In
resignations, and has brought better
men Into the nervier “The stand
ard of efficiency maintained by the rural
carriers, their fidelity and integrity,"
says the report, “arc attested by tho
fact that only 165 curriers out of a to
tm 1 number of 39i,13 were dismissed for
cause."
In conclusion the report gives a sum
mary #»f progress of tho merit system
during til* administration of President
Roosevelt. The number of positions
subject to competitive examlnutious hss
> early doubled since September, 1901,
having been increased from about 110,-
00 at that time to a present total of
about 225,000. During this period, the
more important extensions Include the
classification of the rural carrier ser
vice. the Federal service In the Philip
pines; tho Isthmian canal service, and
the forestry service. The creation of
new bureaus, the extension of govern
men activity to new fields and the closer
supervision and inspection found neces
sary for the propet enforcement of the
law, have necessitated large Increases In
classified branches, while at the same
time th«* powers and responsibility of
the commission have been greatly ex
tended Most of the Inoreases may be
attributed to growth, the number of
rural curriers, for Instance, have ad
vance! from fI.OOOXIn 1901 to over 39,000
in 1903. \

Trouble*.
NEW YORK.—When Mmo. Emma

that her name had been dragged Into
j it, she exclaimed:
“Oh, this is terrible! Terrible!
Why should this woman draw my
name Into her affair? If she has
: troubles with her husband, why seek
I to Involve me? Ido not know what
: to do. It is all so false and so un

It Is awful that the name of a woman

that she can have no way of undoing
this great wrong.
"People utp asking me my side of

nothing for me to defend. Ido not
even know this lady who traduces me
with her nebulous suspicions. I can
not answer something that does not

THE AUGUSTA HERALD
CUBES BBS
WITH HYPNOTISM
LONDON.—Keen interest has been
aroused here by the declaration of
i Miss Marie Thermae, a local lady,
| that she can reclaim the drunkards
1 and criminals by means of auto-sug
gestion, or hypnotism. She claims al
ready to have cured a number of ha
bitual drunkards and smves to the ci
gaivte habit.
One member of a well-known Liver
! pool family, she says, owes to her
his rehabilitation, and another, who
had lost his energy, and even his love
for his child, is now a happy, vigor
ous man. It Is in realms of crime
that she believes her greatest use
fulness would be proved, but to that
end she must have the co-operation of
the authorities. The answer which
the police will give to her request to
be allowed to mix freely with their
prisoners is awaited with intense cu
riosity. Miss Thermae is a refined
and educated woman, and her method,
she states, Is to develop a wholesome
faculty to counteract the influence of
a criminal oy harmful propensity.
TO INTRODUCE BILL
FOR SUMMERVILLE
Act Permitting That
Municipality to Take in
Hill Crest, etc., to go
Before Next Session.
At a recent meeting of the city
council of Summerville, It waa defi
nitely decided that the corporate
limits of the village will be extended
to take in Hill Crest and a portion-of
the Wrightsboro road section.
The annexation will be dona by au
thority of the legislature, and to that
end a bill will be introduced at the
next session of the general asnembly.
It will devolve, therefore, upon Rich
mond county’s representatives, to in-
I troduce two measures of similar pur
pose, one providing for the annexa
tion of Summerville and other su
burbs by Augusta, and the other to
authorize the annexation of outlying
districts by the Village of Suinmar
villo.
Hill Crest lies to the west of the
village. It will prove a most valu
able acquisition of territory, as the
lots were recently improved and are
being Improved. It is proposed to
extend the boundary as far as Coon
Hollow. The Wrightsboro road exten
sion will reach out as far as the citi
zens of that vicinity desire. All this
new territory will comprise an area
equal to atuut one-thiM the present
incorporated limited area of the Vil
lage of Summerville.
Intendant Burum declares that the
measure to annex Summerville Into
Augusta will be fought to the last
ditch. "We mean to oppose it to the
last stand,” said he yesterday. “It
is a mistaken Idea that Summerville
is about evenly divided on this propo
sition. So far as I have been able
to learn, only about three of our citi
zens favor annexation. The exten
sion of Suminerville’s limits must not
be construed as a part of the general
plan of action against Augusta’s
movement, for it was anticipated be
fore such steps were taken by the
city council down here.”
Mix for Golds
To one-half pint good whiskey, add
one ounce syrup sarsaparilla and one
ounce Torls compound, which can be
procured of any druggist. Take in
teaspoonful doses before each meal
and before retiring. This relieves in
24 hours, and cures any cold that Is
curable.
SOON TO ESTABLISH
BATH SUMMER COLONY
Early Members of the Col
ony are Doing Good work
on the Roads.
Within a few weeks the summer
colony of Augusta families which
spends the season at the Richmond j
Bath will have taken up residence at
the delightful resort.
Mr, J. Miller Walker has moved out. |
He makes the run to town every day
in hiß automobile, which is a large.
45 horse power Rambler. His friends !
have enjoyed at his expense not a
little merriment, the point of the Joko
being that Mr. Walker and Mr. Henry !
North, who frequent out, take
with them always a kit of road-work
ing tools, and may often be seen with
their coats off. tolling laboriously
with pick and shovel, filling up holes
and leveling down bumps in the Dean’s
bridge road. Captain Berry has like
wise equipped his machine with an
outfit of similar Implements, and does
not hesitate to assume the role of road
hand when the occasion demands.
The average run from Bath to Au
gusta is 45 minutes, although on oc
casion the trip has been made in
40, while Mr Cornelittk Garrett, driv.
lng a Rambler, holds the record for
making the full 18 miles in 35
minutes.

Don’t Grow Up Too Soon,Girls
“Girlhood Is a Very Sweet Period
in a Woman's Life."
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX
The parting had already lasted half
an hour, as I, who sat writing near
an open window in the next house,
could tell.
“Well, said the girl, going slowly
up the steps, "I must go. Goodbye.’’
,‘On, don’t go yet,” pleaded the hoy
eagerly; “we haven’t talked a min
ute.”
“A minute!” scoffed the girl.
"We’ve been here a good half hour,
I'm sure.”
How is it that girls are never ob
livious of the flight of time in such
circupistances, w'hile men always are?
“Well, never mind, I just wanted
to say”
“Goodby,’” laughed the girl mis
chievously, and went up another step.
“Tonight,” Pleaded the Boy.
“Please don’t go,” said the boy, fol
lowing her up the steps in his earn
estness. “When will I see you
again?”
“Oh, I don’t know; tomorrow, per
haps,” demurely.
“Tomorrow? Not before that;
that’s much too long,’’ said the boy,
masterfully.
"No,” said the girl, “it’s just a few
hours, and you’ll have to wait.”
“Tonight,” said the boy.
“Tomorrow,” said the girl,
l’m coming tonight.”
“Well, goodby. See you tomorrow."
The girl’s hand was on the doorknob
by this time.
"Goodby. I’m coming over about
8 this evening,” said the boy firmly
and finally.
The girl said nothing, but as / she
disappeared in the gloom of the hall
way she turned her head around and
smiled. It was a non-committal
smile, but 1 think the boy called that
evening, don’t you?

nature irritates and inflames the skin, and dries up its natural oils, earning
pimples, boils, pustules or some itching rash, or hard, scaly skin affection.
5. S. S. oures skin troubles of every kind by neutralizing the acids and
removing the humors from the blood. S. S. S. cools the acid-heated circu
lation, builds it up to its normal strength and thickness, multiplies its
nutritious, red oorpuscles, and enriches it in every way. Then the skin,
instead of being irritated and diseased by the exuding acrid matter, is
nourished, soothed and softened by this cooling, healthy stream of blood.
6. S. S., the greatest of blood purifiers, expels all foreign matter and surely
cures Eczema, Acne, Tetter, Salt Rheum and all other diseases and
affections of the skin. It removes pimples, blackheads, and other un
sightly blemishes from the skin and assists in restoring a good complexion.

SUMMER RESORTS
They had interrupted my wprk for
half an hour and I had shamelessly
listened to the pretty comedy. It was
love in embryo, but love at that age is
only real while /it lasts, and some
times the love that begins at sixteen
lasts beyond the sixties and right to
the gates of the great unknown. A
sincere friendship between young
girls and boys is an excellent thing
for both.
The girl 3 teach the boys gentleness
and courtesy; the boys help the girls
to be free from affectation and silli
ness.
AU I would advise the young people
is not to indulge In any silly kissing
games or nonsense of that kind. Be
content to be friends and wait until
you are older for the love making.
It’s bound to come, you know, for
every girl in the world has her day of
love.
When the Little Ships Go Astray.
, Sometimes the little ships of happi
ness go astray and all that is left or
the wreckage is a lonely spinster, but
there are more happy wives than love
ly old maids, you know, so you mu3t
just take your chances.
Meet your boy friends in your own
home, not on street corners.
Your parents cannot be bothered
with having the parlor full of boys
every evening, but I am sure they
won’t mind it once a week, say. And
more than once a week would be bad
for lessons, which are the most im
portant thing for you to think about
these days.
Introduce your boy friends to your
mother and have as merry a time a 3
possible, but don’t grow up too soon,
dears. You can only he little girls
once, and girlhood is a very sweet
period of a woman's life.
