HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

| Subjects for the 1877 graduation essays
are due. Some of the seniors are already
hard at work on their essays.
The issue of the Recorder for the cur
rent month may be expected within a few
days. The worlr of e. P. Sno'l, one Of
the business managers, is greatly missed
this month. He is in Bangor undergoing
treatment for his eyes which are in Sc
rious state of Inflammation.
The lyceum programme last Friday was
nearly of double length, as no exercises
were held the week before. Music con-
sisted OF piano selections by M isses Par
sons, Pratt, Wiggin and Walker, and
clarinet solo by Herbert Monaghan. The
destinations were unusually good. The
disclaimers were Misses Knowlton, Whit
ing, Tate, Salisbury, PettingiIl, Thomp-
son, Stevens, Reed, Moore, Rollins, and
Martin Shute and Charles II. Leach.
M ISIS Roberts read selection. The sub
ject of the debate was: "Resolved, That
ar FILTRATION should entirely su pers EIDE war
as means Of settling all disputes be-
tween ations." Two OF the disputants
appointed were victims of the measles,
which refused to be settled by arbitration,
and Miss Hattie Mason on the affirmative
and Harry f. Rowe on the negative
were t he only speakers. A committee ap-
pointed to consider the relative merits of
the arguments decided in favor of the neg
alive, bat vote of the lyceum favored
the affirmative.

DIR. Watson's Success

The success of DR.. John Watson dan
Maclaren) in his recent American lecture
tour was very notable. Major Pond says
he never had lecturer, except Stanley,
who did better. Stanley made more
money, not because he drew more people,
but because seats were sold at higher
prices.
DR.. Watson began his labors by giving
nine free lectures at Yale on theological
subjects, and all to overlooking udences.
After Maj or Pond got him started on his
travels and discovered the energy of the
public desire to hear him, he worked him
hard, thrusting odd lectures at short no.
tice into spare chinks of time, and trying
hard to spread the doctor out enough to
make him go round. He seems not to
have fully succeeded, for though DR..
Watson responded gamely to the demands
upon him, Major Pond parted with him
with sore reluctance, and not without
making him heaviy-gilde offer for an
additional six-months' engagement.
One thing that helps to account for Dr.
by profession, and doubtless knows his
business; but it seems obvious that his
reputation in America is due to his books,
which possess the qualities that interest
people in their author, and make them
want to know him and to hear what else
he has to .-Hdrper's Weekly.

Standard Weight of Beans.

A correspondent calls attention to a
discrepancy in The AMERICAN OF two
weeks ago. The paragraph at the head
OF the prices current in Ellsworth mar cts
stated that the standard weight of a
bushel OF beans in Maine is sixty-two
pounds, and in another column para
graph stated that the standard weight Is
sixty four pounds.
The statement at the head OF the market
list, sixty-two pounds, is correct. The
paragraph in which the misstatement APP
peared was what is known as "pIate mat
ter" and escaped attention. In many
states the standard weight OF a bushel Of
beans in sixty pounds.

Refining Influences of Poetry.

1t is great mistake for any
young woman to judge poetry by the
melodioGs tinkling of current verse, and
to say that she cant read poetry, says
a writer in Ladies' Home Journal Real
poetry finds a home in every woman IS
neaIo. lis TENDERNESS, It's music, its
vagrant fancies, its vivid emotions are
more adapted to her nature than to the
masculine mind. II she does not read
the best poetry she is missing one of the
most refining and consoling influences
that can enter her life through the
medium Of books.
A woman who has not read Keats "Eve
Of st. Agnes, Coleridge's "Christabel',
Mrs. Brcwing's "Aurora Leigh, Shelley's
"Adonais", Wordsworth's lode to I'm
mortality, Tennyson's "Idylls OF the
King" and Longfellow's "Evangeline"
has unconsciously missed the greater part
OF her emotional inheritance.

COOPERATION.
How 1t has Worked tn the Loan and
Building Association.

How 1t has Worked tn the Loan and
Building Association.
The Ellsworth loan and building associ-
alton is an organization founded and
maintained on purely cooperative prin
ciples. The shareh olders control as wei!
as own all the property of the association,
and all the profits accrue to them, and
whatever other advantages he institution
possesses are available only to its MEM
bers.
This association has proved itself to be
OF no small benefit to this community.
Besides being an inducement to saving,
it has become a source from which its
members could draw funds-borrow-and
become at once property-owners in place
Of being rent-payers, and this in such a
way as to be Of advantage both to them
selves and to the association.
1t is not the purpose of this article to
explain in detail the workings OF a CO.
operative bank-for this is really what
loan and building association is-but
rather to state briefly the results OF its
work during the past five or six years.
This may best be shown by printing the
balance sheet and profit and loss account
a. presented last week at the annual
meeting:

1t Will be seen that nearly 1000

1t will be seen that nearly $4,000 has
been loaned on real estate; this means
that from the payment of Il per share
per month to the association by each of
the members, many of the number have
been enabled to borrow money and be-
come the owners of property on which
they had hitherto been paying rent; the
rent in most cases being about the equiv
aIent OF the monthly dues plus the in
terest on he loan.
The advantage Of this plan is obvious;
every monthly payment reduces the prin
eipal of the loan, while the borrower
shares not only in the profits on his own
loan, but also in those on all other loans.
Following is the account of
