The gold hair from her head
Crisping, cOiling. wandering low
Ger her bosom cold as snow,
For the heart In her bre st stood still
And the blood in her veins ran chill,
At the sound she head in the dark.
''Harkp'

OF q dreamer In his dream.
Yet her eyes were wide and blue,
Her parts lips were white
With the terror Of the night,
And her arms spread stiff and stark.

Wakened the mother mild:
why dost thou call. my child?
The kindling morn is not yet red,
The night Is silent, the winds are dead.
Tomorrow thou art a bride:
Sleep darling at my side"
But again she whispered "HarkP
Hark,

Stumbling, some dreadful thingi

And the watch dogs do not bark"

The key in her cold hand turned.

Waiting her bower

AS the seventh year drew TO a close Dora
heart beat light within her. Joe had men
toned seven years, as if he had meant to
to come home then, at any rate. She wore
out the first day of the "glad New Year"
with busy cares till late in the afternoon,
when an old man. spent with much walking,
stopped to rest himself IN the farm house
kitchen. Prudence Lestirred herself to give
him hearty luncheon, and when he was
warmed and fed he began to talk of his
travels He had been to seek his fortune all
over the West, and never finding it he had
come back to die at home. He mentioned
Colorado and Denver, and when Dora found
herself alone with him for a moment she
said: "Did you ever see Joseph Raymond in

"Joe Raymond? Oh, yes! knew him well !;
lived with him nigh onto a month His
wife was real good cook; couldn't be beat
nowhere in them parts.'
"YOu say he was married."
"TO be sure; right smart feller, and
mighty fond of his wife. Women are scarce
out there"
Prudence came in, and the old man went
on his way, all unconscious of the great
stone he had cast into the still waters of
Dora's heart.
What's the matterg' said Prudence.
You're as white as a sheet"
Doras only answer was to start out OF the
house and run, as for her life, down the
frozen orchard path, by which she could gain

In card to the Bangor Reflector of last
week, Mrs. w. l.. Thomas says, in speaking
of the taking of her father and mother to
the county house, "We did not want them
to go, and both of US told him so.' She
would have it appear that it was against the
wishes OF herself and husband, that the old
people were taken ''over the hills to the poor
house." and that they were willing and anxi-
Gus to care for them. Our Overseers of the
Poor are not in the habit of taking charge of
people if their friends are able and willing to
keep them. We venture to suggest to these
officials that they are not doing right in de-
priving Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas of the privi-
lege of taking care of their aged parents in
their declining years, and of smoothing their
pathway to the tomb. Wouldn't it be better
to allow them 10 enjoy the society of the old
folks and to minister TO their wants, as duti-
ful children love to do, than to put them in
the county house and make them q public
charge? We only throw out this by way of
a suggestion. We don't want to interfere.
A Republican caucus was held at the vii
lage of Paw Paw, on Saturday afternoon last.
Between forty and fifty Republican voters
were present. The caucus was called to
order 10y b. T. Stearns, one of the township
committee, and or motion, A. II. Heron
was elected chairman and q. w Rowland,
secretary. A vote was passed TO elect
the delegates by ballot. The following named
gentlemen were then elected as delegates,
viz Geo. L. Cole, Chas. H. Butler, Cyrus
A. Sherrod, Albert r. Wildey, Benjamin F.
Heckert, Josiah Andrews, John f. Shower
man, Porter A. Dean. Henry Hinckley, VIM.

Rowland.
By vote of the caucus the delegation was
instructed and empowered to fill any vacan-
cies that may occur in their numbers.
Considerable strife, in good natured
spirit, was had over the election of delegates,
not because there was any division of senti-
ment in the caucus, but simply as to what
man should be elected on the pending ballot.
The delegation is understood to be solid
Burrows delegation, and the sentiment of
the caucus was unanimously in favor of Mr..
Burrows. Mr.. c. II. Butler was elected as
member of the Republican township COM

committee now consists of Messrs. b. +.

invigorating sea-breeze, and creating sad
havoc among the Holsters and clans of old
Mass, as will be seen by the following ex-
tract from one of Jos letters. He says:

feet from the beach, and ON a wooded knoll
60 feet high. From this point of view
magnificent panorama stretches out before
us. Looking sea-ward, to the right, are Well

see at night, while on the other hand is

craft of all descriptions. A beautiful beach
of clean white sand, the water being so warm
that no chill is felt by the most delicate,
while, as there is no under-tow and gradual
ly sloping beach, no danger is to be appre-
hended. Opposite our cottage is fish-weir.
About go rods Of piles are driven in
straight line in three fathoms of water, three
more are driven in circle at the end Of
this line, and large net is strung around
having bottom shaped like basket, and
weighted TO hold it down. Two openings
are left for the boats to enter where the
circle reaches the straight line. The fish get
in and go round and round,-don't know
enough to get out, and every morning the
men row out and get them. They took out
100 bbls. of mackerel at one time this spring.
