An Fog at Perfection Point.

ga new laid egg" sounds well when read
off in English books, but in reality one
should not be eaten the same day on which
it is laid, says Marion Harland, in The
Housekeepers' Weekly. At first the shell
is soft, and the favor not so fine as when it
is twenty four hours old. By the time it
has attained this age the shell has a pecul-
lar roughness, and then yelk and white are
at perfection point. Distrust a smooth,
glossy egg; it is almost invariably SO old
that the air has had time TO begin the work
of disintegration upon the lime composing
the shell.

Outer Long Island.
Mr.. Editor:

Outer Long Island.
Mr.. Editor:
Please allow me a small space in tn
columns of your paper to say word
about Long Island Plantation. This
Island lies In southeasterly direction
from Ellsworth about thirty miles dis
tant. 1t is one Of the outer sea islands
and has good harbor which is used most
ly by the fishermen. There are about
thirty dwelling houses on the island with
population of about one hundred and
twenty. They have a school-house and
the regular terms of school are taught by
good competent teachers. They also have
. very nice Westinghouse 30x4O feet wi h
belfry and bell. 1t was built by the mis-
sionary society. This year OS9D they
have preaching every Sabbath at ten
O'Clock; Sabbath school at two and pray
er-meeting in the evening; also evening
prayer meetings three times during the
week. Their principal work is lobster
ing of which they do quite business both
summer and winter. The most OF the
people are church going people and every
thing seems to move along about IS it
should. They have some very nice houses
with all the modern improvements and
there are two new ones being built this
fall. And right here let me say that Long
Island of to-day is not the Long Island
that it was twenty years ago. 1t has i'm
proved greatly In every respect for the
better. Yours respectfully,
A RECENT VISITOR.

We have recently had an interview
with Prof Chas. W. Starr, who is lead
err among the active workers against mod
ern spiritualism. The result of the inter-
view may be stated as follows The pro.
fessor claims:
In view of the fact that the mysteries
which occur in circles, when the leading
so-called spiritualistic mediums are pres
ent. SO nearly approach and are such close
limitations of the miracles mentioned in
the Scriptures, and because these "medi-
ums" are arrayed against the teachings of
the orthodox church and what the wise
and good of all ages have regarded as ss-
red and because they have such a large
gigantic task of stopping the spread of
the influence of mediums" by going
among and associating with them and ed
ucating himself in their schemes and de-
vices, and then laying their modus operdn.
d. bare before the public. If modern
spiritualism is really what it claims to be,
a truth and a reality,it has nothing to fear
in Prof. Starr or the church or society;
but on the other hand if it is a system of
deceit and fraud it will sooner or later the
sooner the better he says, be exposed and
die in disgrace and Prof Starr will de-
serve the gratitude OF the whole world for
devotlug his whole life to its early down
fall. There are two sides to every Ques-
ton, however, and as both sides of this
question have so many adherents. and as
the champions of both sides, J. Frank
Baxter of the modern spiritualistic side
and Charles w. Starr of the other side are
both now in Ellsworth for the purpose of
defending their opposite faiths, we will
await with much interest their lectures.

may be better prepared to comment upon
the respective abilities of these two oppo-
nents at least, and perhap, we will be better
able to form an opinion a> to the truth or
falsity of the claims of modern spiritual
ism. At any rate the phenomena are
worthy of investigation and it seems to Us

When Prof. Stars Advertising bills
