You have no right to complain
about the dull edge on a borrowed
tool. _
Not everyone can succeed, but
everyone can try, which is more
than most of us do.
A good campaign button for
Colonel Roosevelt would be a pic
ture of Ananias done in Standard
Oil. _
Lemons are way up! Maybe
the voters are cornering the suDp'y
to hand out in November to Ted
dy and Taft.
Another advantage of living in a
small town: Parents need not
worry about their children playing
on the street car tracks.
Which is the worst: The girl
who can sing but who has to be
coaxed, or the girl who can't sing
but who doesn't have to be coaxed?
Remember that when you're in
the r>ght you can afford to keep
your temper, and that when you're
in the wrong you can't afford to
lose it. _
The cost of High Living might be
materially reduced if men and wo
men weren't such slaves to fashion
— but there is little liklihood that
we shall ever take this Good Ad
vice.
Mr. Hilles says President Taft
will have twenty more than is
needed in the electoral college.
President Taft is very fortunate in
having an imaginative young mat
in charge of his campaign. It will
serve many purposes, not the least
of which is Hilles’ ability to keep
the Blue Devils away from the
presidential brow.
Woodrow Wilson, in his tour
through the west, has met with
most flattering receptions. There
is nothing about like the wonderful
oratory of Bryan to draw crowds
which shows that it is not mere
curiousity that draws the multi
tudes out to catch a glimpse of his
strong, honest face and to shake
his hand when possib'e. The peo
ple everywhere are deeply im
pressed with the greatness cf this
man's character, intellect and pa
triotic leadership. While this
campaign is free from spectacular
plays it is clearly evident that an
overwhelming majority cf the peo
ple of this country are firmly de
termined to send that great states
man to the White House.
You will find on sale at the
Union Saw Mil company store,
the Union hotel and Bell's cream
parlor four different local post card
views in colors, if these sell well
the publisher expects to add sev
eral other views to the list. They
will be soli at two for five cents.

“Any one would think," remarked
'he woman who had just got back to
town, "that after a person of ordinary
ntc'ligence had gone through the ag
ony of closing up a summer cott; sre
every year for years and years site
would be capable of doing it with her
hands tied behind her hack and blind
ers on her eyes, but it isn't so. There
Is-something about the lust few days
if staying in any place that is dis
trading, but the country is the worst
of all. After getting every last thing
done you always need a full day to
!o the other things you hadn't thought
bout.
"1 always allow for that. Henry
aver cm re why. if he *a!cula:es
a.at we can have Thursday, 1 always
xplain to him that we will leave Fri
lay.
“ 'With everything done!' ho roars
t me in prnt< -t ‘Why do yen think
e want to stieit around here with
nothing to do and everything packed
tnd the fireplace cleaned out so we
can’t have a fire and the rooms full
of porch furniture? It's ridiculous!'
“-We will leave Friday, Henry,’ I
ell him soothingly.
"Then everybody works like mad,
Thursday morning Henry always
•or.ica in dragging off his work gloves ;
ami sits down with a thump.
“'Well,' he says, Tv finished up out- i
idle. I've cover'll the flower beds with ,
t mulch of leaves at id hurlapper!. t. e !
honeysuckle vines mid spaded up th ‘ j
garden. I've put avav the ho e and j
laid a board over the chimney—’
“ 'Go right up and take it off!' I
'ell him. severely, 'How do you sup
pose we're going to cook lunch and
Pinner and breakfast and lunch again
.vith the chimney stopped up?'
"Henry lias forgotten all about the
act that we still have to eat. so he
Jieepishly clambers up on the roof
and throws the board down. It go's
rpllt up lor kindling by the cook an
our li ter, and there never is another
hat will exactly fit. so the next sea
son we find chijimm ks and mice ami
rtber wild creature.* sociably room
rig in the cottage when we get there,
rid are irritably disturbed at being
turned out.
“'I don’t see.’ Henry pursues after
he has disposed of the chimney board,
why we can't take the evening train
onigbt. Your trunks are all packed—'
“AD hut the curtains and soft pil
lows and the candlestick and most of
ny clothes,' l remind him. Tty the
way, hove you wrapped there di.he*
Tor packing in the barrel?'
"That keeps him occupied for some
time. Then, too, he finds a punch bowl
that we borrowed from the Perkinsons
and loigot to return, so he has to walk
two miles with that. Then he has to
attend to the man who conies to se'
out shrubs and then I tell him about
two pieces in the roof that leak and he
has to get asphalt and mess around
and fix them. Usually he still grutn
bles at supper time about the foolish
ness of our remaining over till nex1
day, but I'm so busy fixing the canned
fruit to ship back to town, folding
away curtains and putting away
lamps that I don’t mind him.
“In the morning I ask Henry brisk
ly if he has remembered to take off
the window screens and take down the
porch screens, bring in the spade'and
the rake and nail up the broken place
in the fence. That makes him jump
hastily and cry out: 'By George! If I
hadn’t nearly forgot that!'
“Then when he tries to turn off the j
water and drain the pipes he breaks)
a valve or something and lie has to j
make a special trip to the village lor i
help while the cook and 1 pile rugs j
and bricks on the leaky places and get |
soaked and catch awful cylds.
"Usually, just as we arc locking up i
the house I rememfior t"hnt 1 haven't :

and that reminds H»nry flint he tin- ;
completely neglected to £i n:y the hoi !

outside.
“However, we finally lock the last ;

i ask him if he put out the next door )
neighbor’s cat. which had wandered
in that morning. H nry is peev;sh hi
now and demands to know if I think
he has nothing to do but play nurse

and search for the animal Sometimes
I we find her and son climes we don't

Friend'y Play cf Sea Morrtcrs Turr.i
to Bloody Battle When Shark
Is Killed.
New York.—The Caledonia, plowing
Its way through a bottle-green oc^an
was sixty miles due east of Montauh
Point.
Suddenly some one with ke-=n eye
sight espied the perennial commotio
in the water just off the ship’s bows
All eyes were at once alert, expectin;
to be rewarded with a view' of the
usual death struggle between deep so:
leviathans.
To theirTntter amazement and dr
light, what Should meet their wonder
ing gaz<# but scores—aye, scores—o'
swordfish and sharks frolicking it
friendly play about the ship!
The swordfish ran their swords Ik
ncath the bodies of the sharks am
tossed them high in the air, thei
deft'y caught them and repeated th
F' formance. The sharks, in turn
took playful nips at the swordfish am
chased them all around the ship. This
continued for an hour, when one oi
the swordfish erred in his judgment
of distance and caught a shark on tin
point of his bony nose, piercing th
shark and ending his career then ano
ther®.
With the death of their schoolmate,
the sharks, becoming infuriated,
tv rued upon the swordfish, and th
battle which followed—:from all ac
counts—was indescribably horrible.
One particular pair of fighters were
watched by Purser Johnston, wiio said
that tire sword of the great fish broke
off in ramming the side of the Cale
donia after missing a vicious thru'-i
at his epetny. Before the swordsman
of the deep could save himself by
flight the shark had killed and began
to devour him.

Reluctant Bride—Had Hard Time
Winning Her.
Oranit?> City, Jil.—Thomas Bergen
had such a hard time getting Mrs.
Katherine Hardy of 1367 Bayard ave
nue to say yes that, after the marriage
ceremony was ended, he danced around
the room shouting at the top of Ms
voice.
Then he clasped his bride in his
arms and kissed her again and again,
while Justice Sowell, who had per
formed the ceremony, looked on won
derirgly.
“I’ve got you now; you can't get
away from me now'" he exclaimed at
intervals between bestowing kisses on
his wife.
“I had stich a hard time winning
her 1 feel relieved now it s over,” Ber
gen said, as ho and bis bride boarded
a St. Bouts car. “She kept me on the
anxious seat a long time.”

bands Care for Babies and Warns
Running into Debt.
-*" l
Rockland. Me.—Hi hop Burt, pre
siding at the East M aine Methodist
Episcopal conference, here recently,

bands with the care df babies and oth
er househo’ld duties. A wife should
help, not hinder,-'
'V v ;,"o counterfeit, religicrfi" and
"Keep out of debt" were two precepts
which Bishop Bart sought to impress
on the candidates who were admitted
to the ministry. Speaking of living
within their means. Doctor Burt said:
“Don’t load your tables with good
victuals while you owe others.”
Nullification of the Maine prohibi
tory law is charged against many
st re and county officials in a report
adopted by the conference.
FED AH ELEPHANT PEPPEF
Jumbo II Nearly Kiiled an Italian in
Tarrytov,n, N. Y., When He
Stcp3 Sne«2ing.
Tnrvftown, N. Y.—An Italian era
ployed in the railroad yards here is
convinced that an elephant has no
sense of humor and no appreciation of
practical jokes. The Italian essayed
to entertain a number of friends last
night by feeding an elephant in a
freight car a pint or so of black pep
I>er.
The elephant, known as Jumbo IT,
took the pepper in good faith, and the
sneeze that followed nearly knocked
him down.
Enraged, Jumbo II grabbed the Ital
ian with his trunk and threw him fifty
feet away onto a car of coal. The
Itafan was i* !y injured, hut was
assisted home by his friends.

Mount Carmel, '111.—Fish br.it at
present is one of the scarcest com
n. dities to be found in this city and
vicinity and fishermen are most nu

Everett Heflindall, a barber, has out
witted them all in the matter of ob
taining worms.
He mad a contract with a farmer
