II is generally pretty safe to Judge
the size OF a mans business by the
amount OF advertising he does at all
times.-Big Run Tribune. That is a
fact. Men who do not advertise do
some business, of course, but the liberal
advertiser is the most successful busi-
ness man. He gets the cream OF the
trade. The man who thinks people
don't read advertisements is very much
mistaken. 1t is often the case that the
very men who claim thatit does not pay
to advertise are always seeking for free
advertising. Why?

There seems to BE- feeling prevailing
among the members of the High School.
that tho work of preparing this column
each week should rest entirely on one
case since the first, and ns II result H.
has been necessary on one or two Occas-
sions. owing to lack of news, To postpone
our column for week. Whether this
negligence has arisen from false inn
preston or caused by spirit Of care
lcssncssis not known. But hope In the
future this state of affairs will cease To
cxist and that each member will look at
this In the light that tho duty Of pre-
pairing this rests to II certain degree on

To-day congress will convene In its

chamber at Washington for the fifty
sixth time, and apart from the political

usual Importance will present them

session that will attract the attention
Of the American people. Among the
most important IL the case Of Congress-
mun-clect Roberts of Utah, on which
our attention has been visited since his
election one year ago. While no ques-
tion can be raised as TO his title 10
seat, from legal standpoint. yet AN
effort will be made to prevent him from
being seated on moral grounds. While
pclygamy, with which he stands charged,
Is perhaps one Of the greatest evils that
can confront our nation, yet the facts do
not warrant the unlawful act which the
people are clamoring congress to do,
and which would establish precedent
that might In tho future work chaos In

"A question has arisen as to whether
or not the new truancy law passed by the
last legislature does not repeal the so
called child labor law, which allows any
child under fifteen years of age to labor
in factory or workshop provided 1t has
attended school for sixteen weeks in each
year. This law was passed about twelve
years ago, and has been of Importance
chiefly If not entirely in the cotton mill
towns and cities; Lewiston, Auburn.
Biddeford, Saoo, Brunswick. Augusta
and Waterville. The new law relating
to truanoy, which specifically repeals all
Facts inconsistent herewith provides
that when any child from seven to fifteen
years Is absent from school for six days
or more, the parent or guardian may he
punished by a fine Of not more than $50.
OF course the attorney general or the
courts will settle the question finally, but
it would seem to the lay mind as though
1T would seem be Illegal for children to
labor in the cotton mills while the schools

Miss Kate Kurdish OF Brunswick
whose work as botanist has often been
noticed in these columns, Is at present
engaged in an exhaustive study of the
foadstools and mushrooms of Maine. She
has spent two seasons already in this
work. having explored the country
around Gilead, in Oxford county, two
years ago, and that around Wells. in
York county, last season. The winters
have been spent in studying the fungi at
Harvard University. OF each of the
toadstools which she has found, Miss
Furnish has made water color study,
as is her method in studying the fora of
ths State, and these studies form most
beautiful and interesting folio. She has
found three hundred ana fifty distinct
specimens of the family, and believes that
there may be as many rs Thousand in
the State. Miss Furnish has attained the
proud distinction of having two plants
named for her. one of them being discov.
cred by her and revealed to the botanica
