The percentage of foreigners in va
rious states Is the subject of frequent
comment, and often the cause of
gloomy forebodings in regard to the
future OF the country. 1t is rather
surprising to find that among the very
large alien population of New York
and New Jersey the ratio of illiteracy
is comparatively small. In both states
the number of foreign-born but
naturalized citizens who cannot read
and write is less than seven per cent.
Even among those. who have taken
out only their first papers"-and this
they can do as soon as they land in
the United States--the number of IL
literates is only about twelve per cent.
The ability to read and write is no
guarantee that o man will be a good
citizen. but 1t is ct least a presump-
ton that he will be better one than
the man who cannot.

away, has spent all of her life here
among relatives and friends to whom
she was greatly endeared. To her init
mate friends and associates she exhibit

The greater part of her life she lived
alone; and yet not alone, for she always
had companionship in her flowers, the
cultivation of which was one of the
pleasures of her life. That she was not
selfish in this pleasure her friends and
neighbors well know. Many days have
been made brighter because she had
sent a sweet remembrance in bunch of
flowers In the fierce cold of some
winters morning beautiful rose often
found its way to some one to whom II
would be delight, because she was So
kindly and thoughtful. Her character
was as rare and lovely as the mid winter
rose, and she will be greatly missed
among her circle of friends she was
an honorary member of the Skowhegan
