Three Tall Brothers.

"The life of Maine woodsman and
hunter is very healthy" said Charles E.
Hayden, Of Auburn, "and it is not an
unusual thing that men who follow the
life from boyhood develop into the verit'
able giants of old. While l was at
Castle Hill, Aroostook, l made the ac-
ouaintance of three brothers, who were
said to be the tallest men in the county.
Their names were Allie, Elihu and
Elidad Frank. These three brothers,
laid along in line on the floor, would
measure twenty-one feet to an inch in
their stocking feet, aud without their
caps on. Two of them were more than
seven feet tall, and the other one was a
little less. Old Mr.. Frank, their father,
was taller than any of them. Their oc-
cupation is that Of woodsuen, farmers,

THE QUIET HOUSE.

q. mothers, worn and weary
With cares which never cease
With never time for pleasure,
= With days that have no pace.
With little hands to hinder
And feeble steps to guard,
With tasks that lie unfinished.
Deem not your lot too hard.
I know a house where childish things
Are hidden out of sight;
Where never sound of little feet
Is heard from morn till night:
No tiny hands that fast undo,
That pull things all swry,
No baby hurts to pity
: AS the quiet days go by.
The house is all in order
And free from tiresome noise.
No moments of confusion,
No scattered, broken toys;
And the children's little garments
Are never soiled or torn,
But are laid away forever
Just as they last were worn.
And she, the sad-eyed mother
What would she give to-day
To feel your cares and burdens,
TO walk your weary way!
All! happiest on all this earth,
Could she again but see
The rooms all strewn with playthings
And the children round her kneel

EARTHQUAKE IN SBRVIA:
Severe Shocks Devastate Villages and
Terrify the People.

An earthquake shocked most districts In
Servia, In Western Servia the shock was es-
socially severe.
Along the Moravia River villages were de-
wasted and the people sprang from their
beds to run half-clothed to the fields.
In Eastern Servia great hssures were torn
in.the earth. From Livadica similar phe-
nomena are reported. Large streams OF
warm water and yellow mud still now from
the assures.
Thousands OF houses and many shurches
have been wrecked Public buildings have
been rendered too dangerous for occupancy.

DYING BY HUNDREDS.
In Some Villages People Have Stopped
Irving to Bury All the Dead.

Trying to bury All the Deao'
The famine in the European part OF the
Government of Perm, in Russia, is worse
than ever before. The poor are dying by
hundreds.
In the smaller villages the people have
ceased trying to bury the bodies. Relatives
of the dead are o'ten too weak to provide
burial for their dead, and so leave the bod
les lying on the roof of their houses.
Despite the severity OF the law against
secret societies and the prohibition OF the
collection of funds save through officials,
private associations are forming to secure
food and clothes for the sufferers. These
associations, although quite inadequate,
give the only y relief which the peasants can
obtain.
The State Committee has been dissolved
and the provincial authorities have taken no
step to roorganize 1t.
II is estimated that $50, 1000 pounds, OF
grain would be required to alleviate the DIS
tress and keep the peasants in food until the
next harvest.
