Soon after eating his dinner he began

saying he thought it was indigestion.
He began the present term of court ON

The Farmer and the Cider Law.

Our Prospect correspondent writes: 'The
Ting down to a two years rest again. But
little is said OF what the farmers want next
winter OF the Lawmakers. All we have
heard is that the dog tax is not liked, the
Australian ballot is Objectionable, tax re-
form is wanted somehow, and the temper
ance laws should be remodeied to make
them deserve the respect of IA large portion
of our citizens and of the Young who are
soon to be voters. Farmers are not yet en-
tirely reconciled to the cider laws Many
claim that cider does not fill the tails with
drinkers or cause the extra expense to the
county. All over these hills and valleys
about this time cider is drank by both old
and young, at about all of the farms where
there is anything of an orchard In more
than one way the young look at the temper
ance laws as farce got up by visionary
schemers and but little needed For cider
is not Intoxicating when new, and much that
is said about cider and the habit it encour-
ages for something stronger is not truthful.
Not one case can be mentioned among the
young Ill IHlS NlClHlty where cluer drinking
had anything to do with drinking habits
On the contrary, it happens to be the ones
that could not get cider when young. But
that might not hold good in all sections
Young people look and think and Judge
more from what they see and hear than old
er people give them credit for, and the tenn
perance laws and their workings are not
much respected or needed by the young The
cider law never should have been passed
The damage to temperance begins to count
in the farce now in the rural districts as the
new voter comes along. The cider law as it
stands is hard on the buyer and seller both,
and all respect on both sides for temperance
dwindles in the trade. The earnest advo-
Gates of temperance are dropping out in the
rural towns, and the cider law has much to
do with it. Since the law is not going to be
enforced in the cities on stronger drinks,
why not give the farmers fair chance?"

wilds of Aroostook for her scenes and
characters, and depictingt hem alike with
admirable skill and an evident knowledge
of the surroundings. There is nothing
improbable in the story, albeit it is rather
a sad one We will not anticipate the
reader by revealing the plot, but quote
instead one of the many fine descriptive
passages:
''In the long, bleak winter when the
farmhouse and tree-tops alone peeped up
out of the snowdrifts; when the silence of
death reigned over all nature-when no
longer the song of birds, the buzz and
hum of insects, filled the air; when the
shrill piping Of the tree toads, the hoalse
croak of the bull frogs, the chirp of the
crickets were STILL when cattle no longer
lowed in the pasture, and the sleeps
bleating no longer was heard on the hills;
when chickens and hens and roosters no
longer prated and cackled and crowed and
clucked and screamed about the farm
then, sometimes enveloped in woolens
and furs until only her eyes peeped out,
Ruth would struggle, overweighted by
her wraps, to the top of the hill and
stand there and look about upon the 81
lent whiteness spread all around-white,
glittering white, to the line of the woods
and the fardistant blue mountains en-
closing them, and ever the thought was
IN her mind, oh, that Dick could see

The scope and value of this work are in
part attested 10y the title page given above.
Of Mr.. Bourinot' S standing as an histori-
cal student and writer nothing further
need be said but it may be added that he
is native of Cape Breton and of course
familiar with the scenes he depicts. The
work is dedicated ''To the memory of my

senior Bourinot was a resident of Sydney,
Cape Breton, was the French Vice Consul
at that port for many years, and at the
time of his death was a Senator of the
Dominion of Canada.
The subject matter of this work is es-
pecially interesting to students of the past
history of New England. and the biblio-
graphical and critical notes give it excep-
tional value In a predatory note the au-
thor says: ''It is the object of the writer
to record briefly the main facts in the his
tory of Cape Breton from the days of its
discovery by European voyagers in the
remote past down to the present time,
when a stream of travel is beginning to
find its way to an island Astounding with
SO many features of natural and historic
interest. In the narrative of the days Of
the French regime, especially from l740 to
1913, stress has been naturally laid on the
important position Isle Royale Cape Bret

and the old Thirteen Colonies. Maps and
illustrations have been added to give com
pleteness and clearness to the narrative.
Many pages of critical and bibliographical
notes are appended, with a view of re-
lieving the main text of much historical
matter chiefly interesting to students Of
the past. In these notes there are refer
ences to all the literature which | have
been able to find relating to the history.

and interesting section of the Dominion
