Bavaria's Crazy Royal Family.

On the other hand the Bavarian people are
strongly attached to their royal family, the
ancient line of Wittelsbacher, and will hear
no i'll word as to the late crazy king. The
faint of insanity seems to have spread The
present king is hopelessly mad. His chief
amusement is shooting from his windows at
passers by-with blank cartridges, of course.
Men are hired for the purpose to pass by and
and fall as if dead.
They are curious and erratic people.
Ludwig 1 was expelled by the people for his
connection with the famous Lola Montez, the
Aspasia of modern times, who ruled Bavaria
through her infatuated lover, the king. An
other scion of the house, Herzog Ludwig Won
Baiern, son Of the dissolute old Max" has
recently married an actress, thereby forfeit
ing the title to large estate. 1t has, how
ever, made him very popular with the
masses He is tall, thin, military looking
man, and travels about with a young officer
who seems to be very proud Of being in such
good company. At every step the people
line up and wait for them to pass. The duke
salutes If the persons saluted are officers
they return it; otherwise not. They say he
and his actress live happily together.-Cor

The DYING Suffer Not.

The act of dying, it is now ascertained, is
absolutely free from suffering; it is really I'M
conscious, insensibility always preceding it.
Any anguish that may attend mortal illness
ceases before the close, as thousands who have
recovered, after hope had been surrendered,
have borne witness. Sudden and violent
death, shocking to the senses, may not be, pro
baby is not, painful to the victim. Drown
ing, hanging, freezing, shooting, falling from
height, poisoning of many kinds, beget stu
por or numbness of the nerves, which is in.
compatible with sensation. Persons who
have met with such accidents, and survived
them, testify to this. Records to the effect
ara numberless. H. Browne in Tit

Advice to Q Young Man.

Never whip your brain. All high pressure
is dangerous. Study to think as quietly and
as easily as you breathe. Never force your
self to learn what you have no talent for.
knowledge without love will remain lifeless
manufacture, not living growth. Be con-
tent to be ignorant of many things that you
may know one thing well, and that the thing
which God specially endowed you to know.
It requires fire to fuse the materials of think
ing, no less than to melt the iron in the foun-
dry.
But remember this, however strong you
may be, physically, to strike blow, and
however sharp, intellectually, to recognize a
fact and discern difference, your success in
the game of life depends on the serious cul-
ture which you give to the third formative
force in human character, your moral nature;
and of the rightful supremacy of this ele-
ment comprehensive expression is found
in the right simple word, love- On this all
prophets, poets and philosophers are agreed

The Family Olrrant Bushes.

Forty years ago around every family gar
den stood ROW of currant bushes, loaded
every year with wholesome fruit. During
the harvest time they furnished an appetizing
relish with every meal, and, dried in the sun.
they were kept by the prudent housekeeper
through the winter, and were frequently seen
ON the tea table or supplied as a relish for the
sick. But this fruit is now rarely seen in the
farm or village garden. The borer and cater,
pillar have destroyed the bushes throughout
the land, except when gardeners have had
pluck enough to destroy these insects each
year as soon as they came.-Chieago News.

Circulate Campaign Papers.

The political issue this year is for the
protection of the farmers, of the men of
labor, and of the business interests of the
country. The campaign is TO he lively
and interesting. All who wish to con-
tribute effectively to Republican victory
can do so by the circulation of sound
political documents. To get up lists of
subscribers for campaign newspapers is a
practical way of working for the cause
every town and village should have a
liberal supply of Republican newspapers
in order that the people may keep posted
on the progress of the campaign. The
plain, practical facts and arguments in
favor of Protection, which show the
damaging influence of Free Trade and
Clevelandism, should be brought home TO
all. The Republican town committees
and all others who wish to see Maine roll
up splendid Republican majority in
September, should take time by the fore
lock and send us lists of subscribers for
the Campaign kennebec Journal, which
we furnish at a remarkably low price.

Free Trade Not Strong on The Pacific
Coast.

One of the common remarks of the Cob
den Club advocates has been that protec-
ton is unpopular in the west and in the
Pacific States. But the facts ut this time
are strong against this view.
Edwin \. lIartshorn, of Troy, the Ma
tional organizer of the Home Market Cir
Gle, arrived in Chicago recently, from the
Pacific slope. Mr.. IIartshorn was one of
the organizers of the Thousand Defenders,
and III January started out to fill mp the
membership of that anti-Cobden Club.
lie organized camp in Chicago, out of
which the Home Market Club of Illinois
grew He says that on the Pacific Slope
he secured the names of over one hundred
prominent individuals and firms as men,
bers of the Thousand Defenders, of whom
over sixty are in san Francisco, and in
addition local tariff leagues have been
formed by him in san Francisco and
Portland. He came in contact during his
stay with large number of business men.
and the sentiment among them is almost
universal against the Presidents message
aud the Mills bill, the Californians believ-
ing that the Mills bill will kill every man
ufacturing industry ON the Pacific Coast
The only thing that will not be hurt is the
raising of wheat. San Francisco would
feel free trade worse than any city on the
Pacific slope, as it is now large manu-
featuring and industrial centre, and last
year had manufactures amounting to over
500, 100000. Mr. IIartshorn says that if
the current of thought. as it is now set,
continues, there will be few persons on the
Pacific Slope who will vote for Cleveland
and his free trade ideas. The roll of mem
bership of the Defenders is now nearly
full, and Mr.. Hartshorn proposes to or
game Home Market Circles, which will
contain one hundred thousand working
men. Several circles are in prosperous
condition and are increasing their mem
bcrship. The circles are somewhat SINH
lar to the Chautauqua organizations, and
are for the distribution of information on
the science of government.

Evidence is rapidly accommodating of the
increasing enthusiasm of the Republicans
which is in striking contrast with the
apathy which generally prevails among
the Democrats. 1t is noticeable that about
the only successful ratification meeting
which thus far has been held by the
Clevelandtes was that held recently in
New York city under the direction of the
so-called County Democracy. Nearly all
the other Democratic rallies which have
been attempted have been gloomy failures.
On the other hand, Republican enthusiasm
is kindling the whole country over and
there are great meetings and parades, such
AS one rarely sees in midsummer. The
signs of unity and determination to win
in the Republican ranks are strikingly APP
parent in all sections of the country. The
tide is very strongly running against the
Free Traders and their British allies.

difficulty of carrying his State against
Harrison. He reminds the Democracy
that 81 per cent. of the total vote of the

the Republicans had plurality of 1924,

pect that the Republicans, with Harrison
at their head, will poll as large vote this

OBITUARY.
Rev. Stephen Allen, D. D.

The death of Rev. Stephen Allen which
took place at his home in Winthrop, very
suddenly, on the morning of July 3D., re-
moves from activity one of the best known
clergymen of Maine of any denomination,
and one of the fathers of the Methodist
church. DR.. Allen was born in Industry,
March 20, 1910, and graduated from Bowdon
in 1885. Soon after graduating he entered
the ministry of his church, and continued in
its work, to which he consecrated all his
powers, till the end of life. There is hardly
a change in the Maine Conference that has
not had the help of his wise council and faith
full iabors. He was three times a represen-
tative to the general conference, and for a
period of fortysix years was a member of
the Board of Trustees of the Maine Wes-
leyan Seminary at Kent's Hill, for three
years its principal, and for thirteen years its
financial agent. For three years he was
Superintendent of the Maine Industrial
School for girls, and managed its affairs with
great discretion and prudence. He was
nephew of the. lately deceased camp meet
ing John Allen" and brother to Rev
Charles +. Allen, ID. ID. now of Richmond,
and first President of the State College
Bowdon College conferred upon him the
degree of ID. ID. in 1869. DR.. Allen leaves
widow and two daughters, one of whom is
the wife of Rev. A. +. Chase, principal of
East Maine Conference Seminary, Bucks
port DR.. Allen was quiet, modest. studious
gentleman, of fine scholarly attainments, a
strong tower of the denomination which he
honored by godly life and great devotion
to its work and the best monument to his
memory is the lately published history of
Methodism in Maine, profound and labor
ious work from his pen, published only a
short time before his death.

Significant.

1t is certainly an interesting fact that
a club of thirty Buffalonians who voted
for William Henry Harrison, in 1910, now
propose TO vote for his distinguished
grandson, whom the Republicans have
chosen as their standard-bearer in the
pending contest against the Bourbons and
the Golden Club. 1t is also a pleasing
fact that the President of this club OF
veterans is Hon. Louis F. Allen, an uncle
Of Grover Cleveland. The reluctance OF
the best citizens of Buffalo to vote fol
their former fellow citizen is very re-
markable.
