Inland and seashore resorts alike ar,
now at their best. Maine, the center
of attraction of many of her sstel
states, affords her people opportunitie!

most reasonable prices which one can
not afford to fail to appreciate. II

few hours ride of home. The business
men are getting so that they flee away
whenever they get the chance. This
chance usually comes on Sunday They
don't go away because it is Sunday
and they don't mean any disregard for
Sunday. But the chance comes on tina,

what else can they do, if they are to do
anything in the way of outings?
For us people along the Kennebec,
there is one Of the most picturesque
rivers in the country. Right at the
mouth are thousands of green little
islands," with their rock bound coasts
and bays and points without number,
where one can go down and meet the
ocean, shake hands with him, and tn en
jump into his arms. Oh, there is moth
ing in the world just like that.
That Lewiston tragedy was another
unnecessary illustration of the fact
that jealous people-and all others
should let rum alone.
One Lewiston pastor took the liquor
constables for his text last Sunday. He
told his congregation it was their duty
to uphold the work of these men.
Then there are inland resorts. There
are those, you know, whom the ocean
treats not merely, not unkindly, but pos
itively unkindly. He Is so restless.
Even to look at the great blue expanse
with the waves never quiet. to some
natures is irritating and to get outupon

Tor these nature has been thought
full and has made to be upon the earth
great hills with trees, through which
the gentle summer wind sings its little
song. The brooks and rivers, too. have
their songs, not to mention the birds,
whose music is heard on every side.
This Kennebec county of ours has
inland resorts which are not half ap-
preciated by many people who look to9
far. without attempting to name the
many little vendezous which year after
year received their guests from all
over New England, it is only necessary
to mention that they are all there. this
season. The lakes are reported TO De

Monday, who declared they had just
been having ''the best time they ever
had in all their life," than have been
heard from during the rest Of the sea-
son all told. There is something in the
air-doubtless the sunshine-which has
given life a new color These beautiful
days. 1t seems as if the rain had never
been. And withal, there is doubtless
the keener appreciation of the good
weather on that very account, by I'M

wonders where the time has gone to.

when he made his peace and election

Thought, elevated in conception, uDlift-

tiers. 1t is a stimulating discussion,
with no little of beauty and felicity Of
thought and language. There are some
striking passages we would like to
copy if we had the space. The theme is
handled with fullness and is especially
satisfactory and pleasant in his dis
cussion of the poet-What are the quail
tiles that exalt, inspire and clothe him
with such supreme power. His entire
essay reflects much familiarity with
the best literature, has a strong strain
of thought permeated with sympathy
and love for the great creative gent
uses, is wrought out to it's conclusion
with fine rhetorical effects, and exem-
pIjfies in a striking manner that noble
poetry is ever welded to spiritual life.
