A Song of EARLY Autumn.

When late in the summer the streams run yell
Burst the bridges and spread into bays;
When berries are black and peaches are mel

And hills are hidden by rainy haze;
When the golden rod is golden still
But the heart OF the sunffower r. darker and
sadder
When the corn Is In stacks on the stores OF the
hill,
And slides Ger the path the striped adder:
When butterflies hutter from clover TO thicket
or their wings on the dropping leaf:
When the breeze comes shrii with the call Of
the cricket.
Grasshopper's rasp. and the rustic OF sheaf:
When high In the field the fern leaves wrinkle
And brown IL the grass where the mowers have
rnowu;
when low in the meadow the COW bells tinkle
And small brooks crinkle Ger stock and stone:
When heavy and hollow the robins whistle
And shadows are deep In the heat of noon:
When the air Is white with the down o. the
And the sky Is red with the harvest moon:
Oh. then be chary. young Robert and Wary.
No time let slip. not q moment waltz
And they who would wed must be cone with
Let the churn rattle. see wen TO the caste.
And pile the wood by the barnyard getes

UNION MUST BE RESPONSIBLE.
Why Labor Organizations Should Con-
sent to Become Incorporated.

Guntons Magazine.
If laborers expect to be recognized. if
they expect anybody to make contracts
with them, they must keep their contracts.
People without honor cannot expect hon
orable treatment. If labor organizations
are to be effective, they must be respon-
sible, else they are nothing more than a
mob.
The miners complain that there are alto
gether too many laborers employed, so that
few of them get full timel There is a rea-
son for this, and il lies in the loose, reck-
less conduct of the laborers themselves.
IL is a common thing, where the union is
strong for the miners to go in and out of
the mines whenever they please. Instead
of working eight hours, which is supposed
TO he the minimum days work, they will
frequently leave after working three or
four hours, no matter how urgent the de-
mand for coal may be. If they take a
notion to leave they drop their picks and
walk off. If a union miner is discharged
for refusing to work a full day. a strike
will be ordered. Thus, in the bituminous
coal field, while the theory is that eight
than six When they leave their work on
Friday as they often do, refusing 10 go
i'm the mine on Saturday, many of them
go on a drunk for two or three days, re-
porting perhaps Tuesday or Wednesday.
If the employer complains, especially if he
discharges one of the men for such trifie,
he may expect a strike; and so on through
the whole category of misdemeanors and
delinquencieS

Chicago. Gum-Chewer..
Roswell Field, in Chicago Post.

Mr. William Elroy Curtis is usually SO ac-
curate and reliable in his statements that
we are reluctant TO take issue with any,
thing he may say. Still. we think he Is too
conservative in the assertion that "Chica-
goans use daily 10000 pieces of gum 1t
is our candid opinion that at least 300 900
pieces are chewed by the shop ladies on
State street alone exclusive Of the stenog-
rapher ladies and other ladies' i'm the office
buildings. Putting the population of Chi
cago at 10000, we may assume that there
are at least 500, 900 ladies of all ranks and
description. OF these ladies we are led by
careful observation to estimate that fully
100000 chew gum, and that without ceasing.

visitors have examined the collection
through two decades since the war the
photographs have gradually been recog-
nized and claimed. Only the other day a
little, gray-haired woman in looking over
these pictures became excited and finally
burst into tears. An attendant asked her
what was the matter and, smiling through
her tears, she said:
why, there is picture of my brother.

In the museum of the Postoffice Depart
ment among the thouse nds OF interesting
relics is a piece of the flooring of the old
postoffice building in Baltimore, containing
a hole in the shape of the sole of mans

flooring in the course of many years by
diligent distributing clerks standing in one
position while handling the mails.

A potato Dinner

A potato dinner was the unique
feast which one of Biddeford's charm
ing hostesses spread before her guests
last week, and one which was greatly
enjoyed. In the dining room four tables
were set and profusely adorned with
autumn leaves and vegetables. For a
center piece each table was supplied
with large squash. Around the base
red, yellow and green leaves extended
outWards for fully two feet and flank
irg the sides was an artistic arrange
ment of vegetables and fruits. The
only illumination in the room was fur
nished by candles. Beside. each plate
a large potato rested on AL autumn
leaf. In the potato was small hole
into which a candle fitted. The menu
cards were dainty and as unique us the
other details. They were i'll the shape
of potato and each was painted in
water colors. AS souvenirs of the party
they were admirably appropriate. The
dinner comprised many courses and
each one was marked by having some
form of the potato as its chief feature.
There were soups, salads, croquettes,
ETC., in turn, but fine new potatoes,
just harvested from the fertile soil of
York County, were employed in MAX
ing them.

When Father Rode the Goat.

The house is full Of arnca,
And mystery profound;
We do not dare to run about
Or make the slightest sound
We leave the big piano shut,
And do not strike Il note;
The doctors been here seven times
Since father rode the goat
He joined the lodge week ago
Got in at / a. m,
And sixteen brethren brought him home,
Though he says he brought them.
His wrist was sprained and one big rip
Had rent his Sunday coat
There must have been a lively time
When father ro1e the goat.
He's resting on the couch to-day
And practicing his signs
The hailing sign, the working grip,
And other monkeyShineS
He mutters pass words meath his breath
And other things he'll quote
They surely had an evenings work
When father rode the goat
lie has gorgeous uniform,
All gold and red and blue,
A hat with plumes and yellow braid,
And golden badges, too.
But, somehow, when we mention it,
He wears look so grim,
We wonder if he rode the goat
or if the goat rode him.

Unlike other spring waters that continually
form calcareouS deposits and incfuStations which

Heavy eating is usually the first cause of
indigestion. Repeated attacks inflame the
mucous membranes lining the stomach, ex-
a swelling after eating, heart burn, head
ache, sour risings and finally catarrh of the
stomach. Kodol relieves the Inflammation,
protects the nerves, and cures the catarrh.
Kodol cures Indigestion, dyspepsia, all
stomach troubles by cleansing and sweet
