Miss Daisy King, the sculptor, has just

executed In her best vein. She is still oc-

Although painting on china, ivory, etc,
is commonly regarded as having rather
strict limitations, Prof. Franz j. Schwartz
mas been successful in adapting it to an un-
usual variety of subjects, as the winter
landscape in miniature on ivory, which he
mas recently finished. He has also finished
q decorative subject on china tile with
two oriental figures, which is well done
the color and textures being particularly
good, and the drapery handled with skill.

From Green Mountain.

Two seas our eyes beheld-one dark, one light
And one above the other; for screen
OF billowy cloud lay. level poised. between
Ocean and sky, In inhalation white
As SHOWS of 2emble. Half way up the height
That caps Mt. Desert, spellbound by the scene.
We stood and marveled. Had there ever been,
Since 1srael's pilgrim march, so weird sight?
Meanwhile the sailors, beating to and fro
On Swallowed waters, dreamed not of the still,
Pellucid beauty of that upper day;
Their captive eyes saw only from below.
While we, from our sheer lookout on the hill,
Scanned either level, happier placed than
they.
Brief our advantage; presently the sun,
Nearing the noonmar gathered all his might,
And smote those vapors til they broke in
flight;
Not hastily, for panic there was none,
But with slow movement eastward, one by one,
The cloud battalions drifted from our sight,
TIL everywhere, from verge to verge, was
light;
And those below saw clear, as we had done.
God SHOWS enfranchscd spirits such as thine,
Dear friend, dear brother, who beside me
stood
That morning on the mount, both sides of
things,
The dim, the bright; the earthly, the divine.
Spirits in shadow see bat one. Oh would
The days were born of which the sibyl
sings!

The patients of DR.. Thomas will be glad to
know that he has arranged professional visits to
Ellsworth every other Tuesday at the American
House. and to Bluehill every other Wednesday at
the Bluehiil House. There is no physician In the
United States better known than the doctor. His
cures are SO numerous and often of such a MI
raculous nature that many writers have claimed
that many of his cures were miracles. Dr.
Thomas ability to tell patient his diseases
without asking question is as well established
as that DR.. Thomas lives
These visits of the doctor will afford an ex
cellent opportunity for many to consult this
eminent specialist close to their homes.

\ most refreshing phase of the war
situation is the censorship that has
been established over the press 50 far
as the movements of the army and
navy are concerned.
OF course the suspense is painful,
but 1t is infinitely preferable to the
absurd bulletins that kept the people
of the country in a frenzy during the
first lev weeks of the war
The fake bulletins no longer issue
even from the offices of the yellow
journals, no longer distract the atten
ton OF people from the arts of peace,
no longer attract the merchant from
his counter, the lawyer from his desk,
the doctor from his patient. The err
rand boy comes and goes as of yore,
and even the loafer is no more
obliged to leave his sunny corner to
get the latest news.
The fake bulletin factories of the
large cities are Offering their service
to the country newspapers at greatly
reduced rates, and find few takers.
One New York concern offered THE
AMERICAN the "only reliable service"
for S. a week including telegraph
tolls.
The censorship has been established
none too soon, and as no one doubts
that when events take place the gov
eminent will tell the truth, the peo-
pie are possessing their souls in pa
tience, with profound faith in the
competency of the government, and
sublime confidence in the ultimate
triumph of the American arms.
