Mckinley Oay.

This is the 18th anniversary OF the
birth of William Mckinley. and in
Maine at the suggestion of Governor
Hill, as elsewhere through all the land,
the day will be observed in Il fitting
manner. This does not mean that the
day viii be general holiday or that
a permanent observance of the day
Is intended, but In the schools an hour
or more will be set apart for appro-
pirate exercises and 1t is hoped that
the day will prove an occasion for such
general contributions TO the McKin-
ley memorial fund that the sum needed
for the building of a grand and fitting
national monument over the dust of
the dead statesman at Canton. Ohio,
will be assured. In every state Of the
Union. today, where schools are In
session, where legislative bodies are
meeting and where citizens are as
sembled honor will be paid to the
memory Of the beloved leader, cut
down in the prime of his usefulness by
the cowardly blow of anarchy. His
name win forever shine as one OF
the brightest In the galaxy Of Ameri-
cas- great and his works and the story
of his life Will be cherished as a prices
less heritage by all future generations
of our people.
In the work of raising funds for the
national monument at Canton an OPP
portunity has been offered all to con-
tribute their mite. Large contribu.
lions have not been asked for or de-
sired, but it has been the effort of the
committee to get the necessary money
Thus will the monument be truly a
national expression Of the love and
esteem in which the American people
held William Mckinley. Maine has
done well, but thousands and
thousands of our people who are real
ly interested in this work have neg
lected or delayed to do their own small
part. We hope that they will not fail,
| today. to send their contribution, If 1t
| be only a dime or a quarter, to the
committee of their county. or to the
State treasurer. VIM. II. Dow of Port
land. The Journals list of contribu-
tors is long one. but we hope that
the contributions of this day will add
much to it's length. 1t is a work In
which all Of u.s. whatever our age OF
creed or political opinions. may well
be proud to have part. Let the re-
Spouse of Mckinley day be general and
worthy of the occasion.

Reflections Of a Bachelor.

Small men have big opinions OF
themselves. -.
When you dig into "A mans vanity
you touch the spot where his hatred
for you lies.
No woman likes to think that the
man she cares about would rather see
her happy and plain than pretty and
discontented.
1t seems ever so much more so to
say that woman is older than her
husband than to say a man Is younger
than his wife.
There are men In this world who
think degeneracy is brilliancy and vi
ciousness is smartness. but. thank God.
they never got those ideas from their
mothers.-New York Press. -..

Pointed Paragraphs.

The has-been is not lost. but gone

Everything comes to the waiter who
waits on himself.
The statesman may get the glory,
but the politician gets the money.
In nine cases out of a possible ten ii

happens.
The poet is born-unless he writes a
magazine poem that nobody can I'M
derstand: then he is made.
Fortunate is the man who thinks he
has married an angel if she only turns
out to be a good cook instead
p The average woman may not be able
to love three men simultaneously. but
she can make strenuous bluff at it.
