AN lNGENIous swINpLE.

Tax Collector, Andrew Bouchou, of
Hancock, N. r., turned over as part
of his funds to Supervisor Wheeler q
queer bank note. Itpassed for a twen-
ty dollar bill. and but for the watchful-
ness Of the cashier in Nichols banking
house, in Hancock, it might have gone
unchallenged. The cashier at once
discovered that the front of the bill
was twenty, but the back was five.
They were the split halves of two gen
uine bank notes pasted together. The
schemer's profit will depend on whether
he passes the mate to it for twenty
dollars by proffering back up. By do
ing so he viii have made fifteen dollars
clear ON the transaction. The collec-
tor had taken it ir for taxes.

CITY OF DEERlNG.

Mr.. Rufus Durham and wife have
gone to Cambridge, Mass. to spend a
portion of the winter with their daugh-
ter. They will be missed very much if
away only for short time, as they add
very much to the society of the place.
Mr.. Durham was among the early set
tiers OF what then was Westbrook, more
usually called Stevens Plains. He with
others was engaged largely i'll manufac-
turing Brittania ware. He at one time
sent out some twenty-five peddlars to
dispose of the goods, which he manu-
featured. These peddlars travelled over
a large portion of Maine, New Hamp-
shire and Vermont They took large
amount of various kinds of truck for the
goods which they sold, and turned it into
the mandatory in payment for the ware
taken out. Mr.. Durham IN his business
accumulated a large amount of property,
and is now able to retire without bust
ness He has for these many years tax
en- great deal of interest iii the welfare
of the place. He furnished a large
amount of money in building the Uni
versalist church on the Plains, which has
in great measure been source of
much Joy and gladness to him. He has
been one of the trustees of Westbrook
Seminary for a great number of years,
and has ever felt deep interest in it's
prosperity. Mr.. and Mrs. Durham are
of the very few who are left of the old
settlers. j. Ell.

Statistics of Female Labor.

Commissioner Matthews of the Blu
reau of Industrial and Labor Statistics
finds, in compiling his annual report
from the returns and Investigations
made, many facts of peculiar interest.
In the matter of women wage earners,
investigation concerning which will form
one of the special features of the report,
it is learned that there are in the State of
Maine at the present time 100 industries
employing female labor. From these
women wage earners 3100 personal re-
ports have been received. Of course it
has been impossible to make a complete
investigation over the entire state, but
where Investigations have been made
they have been very thorough, especially
in the cities ofssPortland, Biddeford, Saco,
Auburn and Lewiston, Freeport and
Westbrook.
Probably few Portland people know
that in their city sixty women are en-
ployed in the sorting of rags. The rag
BUSINESS is quite an industry in the Forest
City. 1t is estimated that 100000 pounds
of wooden and 100000 pounds of cotton
rags are handled here annually. No for
eign rags of any considerable amount
are graded at Portland, and nearly all
the 100000 pounds of rags sorted dur
ing the year come from Maine in bales.
weighing from 200 to 800 pounds. The
women employed in this work get from
50 to SIS week, and some Of them be-
come quite expert. The returns to the
commissioner show 106 corn packing fac
tories in the state and 81 sardine factor
les.

The Reasons Why.

What is the simple, truthful answer to
the questions that have been asked so
many times, why are dry goods so often
advertised to be sold at less than cost and
frequently at half price? That very
many do not believe what they read in
regard to it is evident from their express
sions. Yet it is true in most instances,
and easy to understand when you know
tsthe reasons why In fact, it is an alb
solute necessity under the existing con-
ditions, that a large quantity of goods
must be sold at less than cost The
great law of supply and demand. which
is often misunderstood, regulates it all.
In the first place there are more goods
manufactured in this country and i'm
ported into it than can be sold at profit,
because there are more than are needed
or demanded by the consumers. 1t fol-
lows then, as the natural consequence,
that the most popular styles, fabrics and
colorings. will be sold at a profit, for
there is never any surplus of these;
while the unpopular goods remain I'M
sold. AS soon as it becomes evident that
only a cut in prices will move them, the
cut begins. and is continued until price
is reached that forces them into the
hands of consumers. The present meth
DDS of business are such that it will not
do to permit an accumulation of unsalea-
Bile merchandise. AS the first loss is al
ways the smallest, new, fresh goods are
often sold at great sacrifice, if it is
thought, they are likely to be ''stickers.n
Every merchant is ambitious to extend
his business and usually carries as large
a stock as his capital will admit; yet his
success depends upon keeping the stock
active, not allowing any surplus of I'M
saleable goods to remain in his hands.

the party that supports us, and it is our
duty to support the Democratic party.
The church is the voice of God, and the
church through it's priests tells you
whom to vote for and whom not to vote
for. When the church needed armed
men to enlist as crusaders the young
men of the church shouldered the mus
ket and sabre and obeyed the orders of
the church. The church may have to
call on you to defend her rights in this
country, and l know our young men will
obey the church again and take up arms
to exterminate the enemies of the
