Electric Lights

In another column will be found the account of the action taken

by the Sugar Co directors at their meeting on Apr. Ist. re- specting the matter of electric

lights for Raymond.

The town council and the man- ager of the Sugar Co. will now proceed to effect the settlement of details that willgive Raymond electric lights.

The Sugar Co. is going into this project because the lights will be an improvement to the town and not because the invest- ment is attractive to them as a profitable place to put money and while the announced policy of our conncil is to part with no priviledges to corporations they should see to it that no reason-

able condition shall stand in the

way of our getting electric lights. Their value to the town will be inestimable and the little real

estate activity we have had here

will be increased many fold by so desirable an improvement as electric hghts because the value of all town property will be in-

creased beyond the price of the electric light pl-nt.

An opportunity is before us to do good to ourselves and the council should see to it that the opportunity be taken of and the town light service

advantage given a good

A Season of Shooting Stars

This is the hopeful season when

we read with thrills of happiness

How Jones our new third base- man, fills the trembling pitchers with distress;

He swings his bat above the plate and wears a__ look of confidence,

And when he hits, the ball is lost beyond the farther- est outfield fence.

We view with joy the pictures of McKee and Schmidit, the sturdy pair

Of pitchers who are booked to make opposing batters hit the air;

The speed which they are show ing now relieves us of the slightest fear

That we may not have strength to take the pennant for our own this year.

Bill Brown, the mighty catcher whom our captain signed six weeks ago,

Is eating up the swiftest curves and, Moses! how the man can throw!

O'Keefe, our new left fielder. too, is hitting up a splen- did pace;

It looks as if the other teams will simply not be in the race.

This is the hopeful season

when we read with joy

from day to day

What wonders all our new men are, what strength and swiftness they display:

A few weeks hence a para- graph in very small type now and then

Will yield the knowledge that these stars are in the minor leagues again.

Watch the feet of the growing colts. Even on pasture it is often necessary to shorten the toes with arasp. If the toes are kept short, the quarters will take care of themselves and the frogs will bear upon the ground and ay the heels properly spread. little attention in properly care- ing for the feet of the colt is like- ly to mean hundreds of dollars when the colt is three or four years old.

Twenty Years Ago

I wandered to the village, Tom, and tried to find the tree

On which we carved our names one day when we were happy, free

But there was nothing doing, Tom, the tree’d been stricken low

By the village lumber company since twenty years ago.

The little old red school house, Tom, that stood upon the hill

Is gone, and in its place a sign reads:"‘Try a Purple Pill,’’

Where once stood gnarled apple trees with fruit a bending low

They've built a modern brewery Tom-—since twenty years ago.

Do you remember Geraldine— she of the sunny hair?

None inall the village, Tom, was half so sweet and fair.

I lost my heart completely, Tom and tried tobe her beau—

She’s fat, red faced=six child- ren Tom—since twenty years ago. I wandered to the village green where we, when heedless toys, Played one-old-cat and pull- away and kneW so many joys; And Tom, that green is on the bum; it really grieved me so

To find potatoes growing there since twenty years ago. ’Tis sweet to dream of all those things that we in boyhood knew The school, the green, the mead ows where fragrant blossoms grew; Ah Tom, I’m not but dont pay out dough For railroad fare to visit scenes of twenty years ago.

Nursing

Miss Kent stood in the hospital door

Meria Howells

2 8 g rf $ 8 8 :

* Way and repented of her folly.

Six months before she had resigned 4 position as under nurse in a New York hospital for that of superintend- ent or head nurse in a hospital in the heart of West Virginia's mining dis- trict. Her predecessor had left the staf well organized, and there was no special work to counteract the home- sickness which naturally followed her arrival, The biggest ward in the hos- pital was given over to typhoid pa- tients, and, in truth, they overflowed this ward and took possession of three others. Nearly every new man at the mines yielded to typhoid sooner or later, It was part of the process of ne- climation. The cases were rarely seri ous, the patients uniformly stolid, The feyer ran its course, the Grimm Coal and Coke company paid the hospital charges, and the patients as stolidly returned to the mines to have part of their wages deducted cach month and applied on this hospital account.

The dendly monotony was getting on Marion Kent's nerves, At St. Paul's there had been no monotony. The op- erating room had been the workshop of some of the most marvelous sur- in America. There had been fights for lives in which house doctors and nurses had joined hands aud fal- tered not day or night.

The surest cure for Miss Kent's pres- ent mental condition was work, activ: ity and a patient who was at least In- teresting. She felt a wild inclination convalescent ward and stir up the men, stolidly sleeping even

geous

| before the night.

At this same moment she glanced which led from the station and saw that the su- perintendent’s special car, attached to the construction train engine, was slow- ing up by the water tank, A cot was carried out of the ear, and four bear-

| ers brought out a limp figure swathed

in a blanket. Another typhoid patient no doubt, probably a little worse than ordinary or the special would not Lave been called into service,

She was further surprised a few mo- ments later to find herself greeting the superintendent of the mining com- pany.

“I want you to give this case par- } Ucular care, He is young Jack Stan- ton, of Mr. Grimm, president compony. It Is the same old story of typhoid, and, though I warn- ed Mr. Grimm that it would come, I reer respousiiire” ror

him the best nurse you have and as | much of your own time as you can spare.”

“You

call him a boy?’ said Miss Between the young:

; he is only eighteen. ourselyes, Grimm claims ster has made him a lot of trouble, He didn’t like school, and so Grimm sent him down here to learn the coal

| and coke business from the beginning. | You'll find him rather a decent sort of

| looked

patient, and for heaven’s sake don't let anything happen to him, Grimm seemed glad enough to ship the boy on to me; but, just the same, I don't imagine he will be any too gentle with me if anything goes wrong.”

Ten minutes later Marion Kent was in the private ward in which young Stanton had been placed. He had just received a cooling sponge bath, and he looked at her with eyes that shone with something beside fever. ‘My, but that felt good, and it is awfully jolly, don't

you know, to see a woman's face again!” Miss Kent turned up the lamp a

new patient. uned to her that she had never into such marvelous brown eyes that could twinkle and dance

eyes

and hide the deepest and tenderest of |

feeling. She glanced from them to the boyish features. Stanton lifted his hand weakly and felt of his chin,

“Il wanted ‘em to give me a shave be- fore they brought me down, I knew I would give you women an awful start. I look so like a tramp.”

Here was novelty with a vengeance, a patient who cared how he looked in the presence of the nurses,

Miss Kent sat down beside him, She felt somehow as if she ought to ad- dress lim as a willful boy.

“You kuow this is sort of a low fevet you have, and you'll get very tired of it and of us"—

“Not of you, you bet! Say, did you ever sleep on the hard side of a straw tick?"

Miss Kent shook her head and con- tinued her little moral lecture. “I just want you to realize that while you don't feel very sick you're liable to be a good deal worse if you are not a good patient.”

“Oh, I'll be good, all right, watch me,”

And Miss Kent did wateh him close- ly more as a psychological study than asa patient. Without asking questions, bit by bit she pieced together the his- tory of his boyhood, She saw the businesslike, uncompromising attitude of the uncle to whom tbe boy had been left as a leyacy by his dying mother. The wealthy bachelor had given freely of his money, but not of his sympathy, He had made no effort to understand the boy--to establish In- timate relations with him, If teachers

lazy or indifferent he Lad accepted the criticism without question, She was morally cortalu be bad never looked

wel eer

{nto those luminone brown eyes saa read the truth,

Ou the fifth day after me urrived at the hospital she recalved a letter:

“Dear Madam—Mr. Grimm bas re eeived word that bis nephew, Jobn Stanton, is confined to your hospital with typhoid fever, He requests that you spare no expense to make him comfortable and to bring about his ul- timate recovery. Kindly render a weekly statement to Mr. Grimm and notify him if we can ship anything that will make John more comfortable or that will expedite his recovery.”

The signature was the name of Mr, Grimm's secretary,

Miss Kent laid down the letter and frowned at an engraving of Esculapius which hung over her desk. She could see the man of business in his richly appointed office turning from his tele phone long enough to give the secre- tary some curt directions. She could also see—and the memory of that sight brought a queer choking sensation in her throat—Jack Stanton’s eager face each day when the mail was being dis- tributed,

“Any line from the governor?”

Marion Kent gave the mail to an- other nurse to distribute, and then she sat down to her desk. It took her a long time to frame the letter she had decided to write. She wrote it in lead pencil, erasing and interlining, and then copied it, She set the stamp upon the envelope with a triumphant uplifting of her head, Something told her that this letter would make Henry Grimm, bach- elor, think,

It did. When he had read it the first time he shoved back his chair from his rich mahogany desk and stared through the window where the joyous spring sunlight was dancing on the roofs of skyscrapers, It seemed as if a sudden new light had flooded the eyrie in which Henry Grimm had been content at the game of making money and lore woney. He read the letter again, Then he laid it down and leaned back in his chair, It was a womanly letter, but It carried a certain force of char- acter in every gentle phrase. And aft- er reading it the third time Henry Grimm wrote to his nephew. He did not even dictate the letter to his sec- retary, but wrote it long hand. Oddly enough, at the same hour the very next morning he found himself at the same desk, The answers to these letters came in her handwriting, but they bub- bled over with boyish expressions of the patient to whom the mail hour was now the happiest of the day.

Then the tenor of the letters changed, There were only daily reports from Miss Kent setting forth the trifling va- riations of temperature and respira- tions. Young Stanton was wandering

| in the land of delirium.

It was only natural that Miss Kent should write a few words of comfort to the now anxious man and equally natural that he should watch for those uaily crumbs of comfort, but his secre tary was amazed when the man of af- fairs suddenly announced that he wes going south, Miss Kent had writ’ that they expected the crisis In fouy- eight hours,

Mr. Grimm leaned back in the chair of the parlor car and closed his eyes, “Of course he will get well. He's been keeping up this gait ever since his first degree of measles. It is foolish of me to chase down there.” Then he added quite inconsequently, “I'll wager she’s forty-five and wears corkscrew curls,”

. . . . * . .

Young Stanton had been carried out on the convalescents’ porch. He was waiting for his uncle, who had gone down to White Sulphur Springs for a week's stay. “I say, governor,” he said when Mr. Grimm had finished his ac- count of his trip, “don’t you think we could fix it so that Miss Kent could have a little vacation? She looks aw- fully tived. I think we could fix it on the score that I need her to take care of me on the trip.”

Heury Grimm looked up at the mountains, They were calm and stead- fast, like Marion Kent. He rose sud- denly.

“Yes. I will ask her now, I think I need her myself.”

Quite Understood Him,

He had had his little speech all writ- ten out for several days beforehand, and it ran like this:

“I have called, Mr. Wealthyman, te tell you frankly that I love your daugh- ter, and I have her assurance that my affection is returned, and I hope you will give your consent for her to be- come my wife. I am not a rich man, but we are young and strong and are willing to fight the battle of life to- gether, and”’— There was a good deal more of it, and he could say it all glibly before he left home, but when he stood in the presence of Papa Wealthyman he said:

“I—I—that is—I—Mr. Wealthyman— I tell you frankly that—that—I—your daughter loves me and—and—I have called to—to—frankly ask you to—to— to--be my wife—er—er—that is—I—we —she—er—no—we are willing to fight —that is—we—we—are young and can

Literature In Alaska.

A member of one of the government parties which journeyed through Alas. ka during the Klondike rush, says the author of “Through the Yukon Gold Diggings,” was horrified at the lack of entertainment and good literature available for the miners,

“Doesn't It get very dull bere?’ he asked of an old miaer at Forty Mile “What do you do for amusement?"

“Do?’ echoed the miner gravely ‘Do? Why, bless you, we ‘ave very genteel amusements! As for readin’ an’ lit’rature an’ all that, w'y, w’en the fust grub comes in the spring we ‘ave a meetin’ an’ call all the boys together an app'’int a chairman, an’ then some one reads the directions on the labels of the bakin’ powder boxes." ath

He Wanted That Wine.

General Sir BE. Hamley is cited as the authority for a good anecdote about Bismarck, Hamley was sitting close to the chancellor at luncheon, with the old Emperor William not far off.

Bismarck, talking rather loudly, de- seribed the old monarch as being gen- erous, but very forgetful. Hamley got nervous, as he thought the emperor would hear, “For instance,” continued Bismarck, “I pleased him the other day, and he asked me what he could do for me. I said, ‘Give me a dozen of that Tokay you have in your cellars,’ and he said he would. “But,” added Bismarck, raising his voice still higher, “he hasn't done it.” Here Hamley hastily broke in, “I beg your pardon, but I am really afraid the emperor will hear you.” “I want him to hear me!” roared Bismarck. “That's just what I want.” And a smile broke over the face of his imperial master.—“Fifty Years of Fleet Street.”

Tiger Story From India,

A man living in a village near Luck- now is reported to have had an ex- traordinary adventure in the jungle. He had gone in search of two buffaloes that had gone astray when he was at- tacked by a tiger.

He was unarmed except for a heavy stick, with which he fought until over- come by loss of blood, when he sank unconscious. At this moment the two buffaloes appeared. One of them stood over the wounded man, while the other snorted and tossed his bead.

The man recovered consciousness and staggered to his feet, when the tiger made another spring at him. The beast was, however, received on the horns of one of the buffaloes and was so badly wounded that it turned tail and slunk away.—London Express.

Liquid Metal Polish, jn Take eight ounces of Spanish whit- ing, which must be perfectly free from grit, and put in one quart of gasoline. Shake up the whiting and gasoline thoroughly. You will notice the whit- ing settles immediately, leaving the liquid as clear as water. To remedy this and, further, to make it a better polishing agent, add to each quart of the mixture thirty-two drops of oleic acid—no more, no less. Shake again, and the whiting will not settle. Apply to gold, silver, nickel, brass, glass or any kind of metallic surface with a piece of cotton flannel, rubbing well. Polish with a piece of same cloth.— Blacksmith and Wheelwright.

Waterproofing Dress Goods,

One of the most important processes used for waterproofing dress materials is on the lines of the old alumina proc- ess. In this case the factor used is rosin dissolyed in a large bulk of pe- troleum spirit, The fabrics to be proof- ed are passed through a bath of this solution and dried to drive off the solvent. Following this, the goods are treated by pressing with hot polished metal rollers. This last process melts the small quantity of rosin which is deposited on the cloth and leaves each single fiber with an exceedingly thin film of rosin on it.

Forests and National Prosperity.

As a living example of the conse. quences of deforestation we need sim- ply look to Spain, a country which cen- turies ago was rich in timber and agri- cultural products, a proud seafaring nation of world conquerors, Spain’s decadence dates from the time when her timber supply became exhausted, her shipbuilding relaxed and her bar- ren, unprotected soil ceased to bear fruit,—Forum,

A Long Way Around,

A man with a large family of daugh- ters on his hands may profit by the fol- lowing suggestion: An old lady who had several unmarried daughters fed them largely on a fish diet because, as she ingeniously observed, “fish is rich in phosphorus, and phosphorus is use- ful in making matches.”

Her First Dinner,

“Yes,” said Newliwed, “my wife and I are housekeeping now. She prepare] our first dinner last night with her own fair hands.”

“How was it?” asked Bacheller.

“Well, the nuts and raisins were fine,”

Most Deadly of Insults, Fweddie—That creature actually told me to mind my own business, y'know! Cholly — The impertinent wretch! Fweddie—Positively insulting! As if to insinuate, don't y'know, that I was in

| business!

Nobody can help being born stupid, but anybody can help becoming stu- pider than he was bora,—Lady Helen Vorbes,
