rlous woodcraft than can be found in
books. They are familiar with every
nook and corner of their own terri
tory. The one-armed lad referred to
has already gone beyond, into the
haunts of the bear, and probably will
not be happy or think himself quite
man until he has killed one There are
plenty of men and boys in the White
mountains who occasionally shoot or
trap bears just for the sport or to get
few extra dollars. In this amusement
they learn many interesting things and
acquire health and hardness, together
with good stories of their adventures
and exploits. At White mountain
fireside you can be well entertained of
an evening listening to these recitals
in the quaintest language, interspersed
with tales of strange, mysterious hap
penings, of which every neighborhood
has good store. For mountain dwell.
ers are credulous, a bit superstitious,
and easily astonished. Though brave
in the face of real danger, and even
fond of hazardous adventures, they
have this contradictory characteristic

my sterious sound or sign, any strange,
unusual event.
The occasional bear slayer ALWAYS
has the story to tell; it is an event in
his life and that of the neigh borhood.
But Mr.. M, whose business is the
destruction of bears, seldom enlarges
upon his captures. He has no admira-
tion or respect for bruin. He thinks
him dirty, cowardly beast, his skin
better off than on. He rather prefers
to talk of his habits, anatomy and the
quality of his fur; or more often of the
very rare animals that he has some-
times found in traps; or of woodcraft,
in which he is an expert. His usual
catch of bears is from fifty to seventy
five year. The skin of the bear varies
in price from fifteen to fifty dollars, ac-
cording to quality and size. This value
of the skins, with sales of the skeletons
and the state bounty of five dollars
reduced lately from ten dollars-gives
Mr. Nj a sufficient income, so that
he lives in his own good-sized house,
well furnished with books, musical in
struments and children. altogether the
home OF a comforta BILE, well-to-do citi-
zen.

WHEN MABEL SMILES

when Mabel smiles my heart beats hioh.
softer azure tints the sky,
ana zephyrs sweet fit laughing bv.
with strains unheard before.
while look In her peerless ewes.
ana envy not the rich and wise.
nor heavenward gaze with wistful siphs.
FOR Heaven can yield no more.
When Mabel frowns the world is dr.ar
Each trembling dewdrop seems tear.
Ihe roses droop in grief and fear,
Ana cease to breathe perfume.
Alas' Tor me, mournful swain.
1he dismal moments drag In pain.
FOR who could bear to meet disdain
From lips so full OF bloom!
when Mabel smiles my heart is proud.
When Mabel frowns my heart is bowed:
but De she dark or sunny browed
She reigns my bosom's queen:
Ana well she knows who rules in stata
Ihat.joy and pain must alternate:
Ana SO fair Mabel hides my fate,
smile and frown between.

Pope Leo Kill, in recent inter.
view. says the Montpelier Petit
Meridional, said: Science can and
ought to march forward with religion,
and the discoveries of the one can be
nothing but the glorifcation of the
other. Science should be the servant
OF God, and it can be SO, you may rest
assured, without losing any of it's inde-
pendence and dignity"

The Critic Contour ded.

A practice to which large number
of men conform is not lightly to be
found fault with, for it is generally
based upon a good reason. Of which the
critic is ignorant. Coleridge, the poet
and philosopher, was once fioored by a
Jew, peddler of old clothes, whom he
ventured to criticise for abbreviating a
word. The Jew had annoyed Cole
ridge by passing him several times,
crying for old clothes in the most nasal
tone. At last, the philosopher was so
provoked that he said to the peddler:
pray, why can't you say old Clothes
as plain as / do now?" The Jew
stopped, looked gravely at his critic,
and in a clear, grave accent, answered.:
"Sir, can say old clothes as well as
you can, but if you had to say so ten
times a minute for hours together, you
would Och clo' as l do now" He
walked away, but Coleridge was SO
moved by the justice of the mans re-
tort that he followed him and gave him
shilling, the only one he had

A QUESTION OF WAGES.
The Fisherman IL Luckier Than the Col.
lege Professor.

Vho Fsherman Is Luckter Than the Col.
lege Professor.
A palatial fishing schooner is one of
the sights of Portland. In size, sea-
worthiness and beauty OF model she is
almost the peeress of a racing yacht,
she being Of liz tons burden, while the
average fishing schooner is about 80
tons She draws Is feet of water and
cost $4,000. and carries q crew of 21
men, the largest that ever came into
Portland in a fishing schooner.
Throughout the year they make good
money because their vessel is SO large
and staunch, and they can go anywhere
regardless Of weather. However, on
this trip they brought in about 10, 900
pounds. The Mariner of Gloucester
lying alongside, is almost twin, but
not quite so large, her tonnage being
los, with crew of 16 men. They had
been out eight days, had brought in
but IA, 900 pounds of fish, and the crew
shared but S5. 65 apiece, which is poor
showing.
In contrast to this, fisherman said
that seven years ago he sailed out of
Swampscott, Mass. in a fishing schoon-
er, and for a year each of the crew of
ID averaged S11a month, which was as
much as the average college professor
earns. At another time he sailed out
of Boston after lnackerel, and in three
successive trips the crew shared Ss5,
Sl0S and S63, IA total OF $3.50 for less than
a month of fishing. Some things go by
luck or favor. and you can't change
them with any of your 'ologies.-
