WOMAH SICK TWO YEARS
TELLS HOW SHE (SOT WELL
Miss G. I. Baird of 30 Glenville ave.,
Allston, Mass., writes: “I have been sick
almost two years, had four doctors with .
little or no relief. I was growing thin
every day, went from 138 to 111. I was I
so discouraged I didn’t know what to do. 1
One night, about three weeks ago, I pick
ed up a paper and saw your Dr. True’s
Elixir, Family Laxative and Worm Ex
peller advertised. I made up my mind I
had worms, and the next day bought a
small bottle of Dr. True’s Elixir. I was
surprised at the relief, stomach worms
some a finger long; so much slime, that
looked as though it was just the skin of
worms. The day before I took Dr. True’s
Elixir I thought I should grow wild with
the crawling in my stomach. I feel like
a new person, all my friends say I look so
much better. I wouldn’t have believed
anyone could feel so much better in such
a short time. I can’t give your medicine
praise enough.”
Signs of worms are: Offensive breath,
swollen upper lip, sour stomach, deranged
stomach, occasional gripings and pains
about the navel, pale face of leaden tint,
eyes heavy and dull, twitching eyelids,
itching of the nose, itching of the rec
tum, short, dry cough, grinding of the
teeth, little red points on the tongue,
starting during sleep, slow fever. Dr.
True’s Elixir, The Family Laxative and
Worm Expeller, is sold by ALL DEAL
ERS.

Here are a few of the many points which
combine to assure the safety of your
investment in Central Maine Power
Company 7% Preferred Stock:
1. The Company’s earning power has grown steadily and
seems singularly stable, regardless of labor, money or
industrial conditions.
2. The stock is a legal investment for Maine savings banks
and is owned by several--and by many trust and bank
ing companies of the State.
3. The Company is managed and very largely owned by
Maine people. A large proportion of its employees and
one out of every ten of its customers own stock in the
Company.
4. The net proceeds from the sale of every share of stock
go into dividend-earning property-dams, power stations,
transmission lines.
5. Behind the investment is physical property estimated to
be worth more than $20,000,000.
6. Rates, competition and security issues are regulated by
the Public Utilities Commission. In many rulings the
commission has made clear its policy of allowing public
utility companies to charge such rates as will allow a
fair return on the value of the property.
Because of these and many other points the investor
who puts money into Central Maine Power Preferred can
feel reasonably sure he is making a safe investment,
The price of the stock is $107.50 a share—the yield
