BosToN. July 2.-Here in the Hub
they are very critical of things literary.
Perhaps 1t is because they believe it
necessary to live up to Boston's old
time reputation for supremacy in the
field Of letters. Perhaps it is just envy.
At any rate, the Back Bay folks seem
hard to please.
What do you suppose they are find
ing fault with now? Nothing less than
the crucial love scenes in the most pop
ular romantic novels of the day. Now,
it needs much courage to pick flaws in
the work of an author whose books sell
by the hundreds of thousands, but Bos-
ton folks are doing it. Not the profess
sional book reviewers, you understand,
but the amateur critics. They are Of the
class which forms study clubs for the
purpose of raving over the subtle de-
lights in the work of the latest literary
discovery.

provides no place for ''study clubs"

"The Willows" Pennington.

The Pennington Chronicle has the
followin. notice of one of the local
hotels, of which a former Belfast man
is proprietor:
There is no feature so well calculated
to give a favorable impression of town,
as the presence of a first class hotel ac-
Communications Pennington is not be-
hind the times in this respect, and
few words concerning ''The Willows"
will prove of interest to many of our
readers. This house is one of those
literally managed home-like hotels
that everybody likes, and the proprietor,
Mr.. Chas. Mahoney, is unsparing in his
efforts to make his guests feel at home,
to lodge them well, feed them well
and treat them well in every re-
spect, and the facilities at his COM
mand are such as to enable him to
make satisfactory rates. 1.-The Willows
is beautifully situated on Main St., just
far enough from the business centre to
to escape the hustle and turmoil of bust
ness. 1t has about 40 rooms, both sim
gle and en- suite, which are well furnish
ed and kept scrupulously clean. The
diningroom is very large, airy room,
while what is served therin includes all
the delicacies of the market and season,
cooked and served in a manner and
speed that would please the most fault
finding. The grounds around the house
are beautifully laid out and give to the
business man and summer visitor that
air of restfulness that is so much appre-
ciated, while the water used comes from
one the best springs in the State. The
parlor is large and homelike. Taken all
in all ''The Willows" is first class
house and well deserves the patronage it
enjoys. Mr.. Mahoney has had the
management of this house little over
a year. He is liberal and enterpris-
ing host and deserves as he enjoys the
liberal patronage of both permanent
and transient guests.

We take our share of fretting,
Of grieving and forgetting;
The paths are often rough and steep, and
needless feet may fall;
But yet the days are CHEEKY,
And night brings rest when weary,
And somehow this old planet is good world,
after all.
Though sharp may be our trouble,
The joys are more than double
The brave surpass the towards, and the leal
are like a wall
To guard their dearest ever,
To fail the feeblest never;
And somehow this old earth remains bright
world, after all.
There's always love that's caring,
And shielding and fOrbearing.
Dear WOman'S love to hold us close and keep
our hearts in thrall;
There's home to share together
In calm or stormy weather,
And while the hearth-tiame burns it is a
good world, after all.
The lisp of children's voices,
The chance of happy choices,
The bugle-SoundS of hope and faith, through
fOgS and miStS that call;
The heaven that stretches Ger us,
The better days before us,
They all combine to make this earth a good
world, after all.

II little hope for the hapless vessels,
whether men-of-war or fishing smacks.
The Dominion government. alive to
the dangers Of the place, has estab-
lished life saving service that has
robbed the island of half its terrors.
There are six government stations.
An interesting feature Of some Of the
life saving stations Is stable. In which
are housed ponies for the use of the
men. Mounted on these the coast
guards gallop over the dunes on their
long patrols. The ponies are natives Of
the island and are almost grotesque,

that roam over the sandy wastes. They
are extremely hardy. as they needs

And on my head
They put the blame.
When winter comes,
With ice and snow,
They look at me,
And mutter COZ
