Visitors from Aroostook.

George H. Gilman and wife of the
Aroostook Pioneer recently drove from
Houlton to Augusta and return, passing
through portion of Waldo county. Of
this part of the trip Mr.. Gilman says:
Thus we very slowly get along through
Dixmont Centre, and for change We
make few more inquiries. "How far is
it to Unity?" ''Are we nearly over the
hills and is it a straight road?' To which
latter inquiry we are informed, lit is
straight road, but when you get about
two miles farther the road cures little.
To the second inquiry-"after you pass
Dixmont Corner two miles more or less,
it is not nearly as billy" This is en-
couraging, so we whisper it in Charles
ear and he, too, takes fresh courage. We
reach the place where the straight road
curves and soon pass Dixmont Corner
Now we can make faster progress and we
go through Troy ''fairly flying" We had
been so conSiderate of our faithful horse
for the past fifteen miles that he seemed
to realize what was expected Of him now.
Here we are at Unity and we decide to
take our dinner at the hotel, (if there be
one; we inquire and find there is, have
the hostler give Charlie a good hard rub
bling in witch hazel, and perhaps we can
make the desired distance by night
We are looking for the hotel and here it is
We glance up at the sign as we alght and
much to our establishment find we are at
THE White House, For a moment
only we lose our breath at the mere
thought of being entertained at this, of
all places; our eyes give forth merry
twinkle as we think how the friends at
home will envy us when they hear Of this
royal event of our trip. We are soon
brought back to our normal condition TO
find this all vision except as to the name
of the hotel and we come to the sensible
conclusion that the reason it is named
''The White House. is because it is
painted brown. We got fine dinner here,
our appetites We're good and we ate with
relish. We take little over an hours
rest, then proceed on our journey.
