ting-room unconscious, and couldn't
be brought to. Mr.. Raymond had
gone to town, Lee had started for
school, and there wasn't 4 soul on the
farm. Mrs. Raymond was scared to
death. She wanted the doctor, and

A Maine Cyclone.

It is related of Lamont Downing
that in 1s4s, one pleasant summers
day, he was trudging along the high
way north of the pond Zeal the line
between Dexter and Ripley, when a
hurricane came over the hills from the
west. The air was oppressive and sui
phurous and the sky black as ink. The
path of the cloud was marked by all
sorts of things from the Ripley farm
houses flying overhead. The next
thing the lad knew he was caught up
and went sailing away with the rest of
the flyers. Fortunately for him he had
not gone far when he came into the
thick top of a big elm tree which was
twisted and wrung by the cyclone, and
to this he chung with all his might.
When the storm was past and folks
came looking around to find who was
killed. they discovered the boy lodged
in the tree top and had to get ladders
to get him down from the p~erilous
plece.-Kenuebec Journal.

the bitterness was not lessened when
he learned a day or two later that Lee
had been adiudged winner.
For the next two or three weeks Jim
had a hard time of it. Mr.. Bixby took
him ont of school, saying that it was
not worth while for him to finish the
session, since he was not going to col
lege. The boy had more tasks than
ever to perform. Every time Mr..
BiXby assigned a piece of work to be
done he would say:
And hurry up about it, sonny. Re-
member what delay cost you a little
while ago. 1 want no more fooling."
Jim began to expect some such re-
mark every time he saw his father.
His mother was his standby in this
time of trouble, and the two grew
nearer to each other just on account
of these little troubles.
One night Mr.. Bixby came home late
for supper, an unusual thing for him.

cottoiens a. Trademark.

An important and interesting trademark
suit, which has been before the courts fof
some time, has recently reached a decision
in the United States Circuit Court for the
Southern District of New York. The sult
was for an Injunction against the infringe
mert of compliments (The n. b. Falrbanx
Company. Chicago) trademark "Cottolene'
by the use of the word ''Cottolec." The
validity of Cottolene as a trademark was
made permanent by an injunction, the case
being summarized by the court as follows:
sit seems to be the law that when manu-
facturers have educated the public &c ask
for a certain article by its trademark name,
they have acquired the right TO jlsist thai
products manufactured by Others b not
be given to the public under that name. II
is Just that it should be so for the eenent
derived from such name can only be OBJ
tanned by faithful service in furnishing
articles of recognized value. Moreover,
the trademark uame might be adopted by
others. inferior articles might then be pro-
duced and sold under it; and thereby the
value to manufacturers of the reputation OF
the name used by them as a trade-marK
would be destroyed"

Mrs. Bixby's face cleared up a little.

she said; ..oniy his hope of winning it

Mr.. Bixby frowned.
It'd please Raymond mighty well if
his boy got in ahead of Jim. Jim bet

Mr.. Bixby and Mr.. Raymond were
enemies. They had quarreled some
three years before over an election
matter, and Jim and Lee, dear friends,
had been forbidden to speak to each
other. At first they had grieved, then
grown rather Indifferent. Now Lee
was as bitter in feeling toward Jim as
MI. Raymond was toward Jim's father.

it." said Mrs. Bixby, practically. AT
least he'll try mighty hard"
The prize was given by an old gen.
tleman of the village to the boy who
answered best t~wenty-four questions
on ancient history. The questions
were sure to be difficult, for the gen.
tleman selected them himself. and was
apt to choose as subjects rather unim-
portant details-those which a boy, in
studying, would be likely to skip for
something more important. So a
good deal of work had to be done to
earn mat thirty-dollar prize. The ex-
animation was held the last day of
the winter term. The competitors
were obliged to present themselves on
the morning of the fateful day at nine
precisely. Anyone coming after that
hour was refused admittance, and lost
his chance of winning the thirty dol
lars, for that year, at least.
Mrs. Bixby told Jim his fathers de-
cision. The boy vas splitting wood,
and he continued his work, only stop
ping to draw 4 long breath as she con-
. cluded with the words:
so you work and get the prize,
sonny. It's the best l can do for
you"
