Salaam: New Year.

Today touch my forehead lips AMI heart
The ancient token
That In my every thought you bear part,
Silent or spoken.
May Fortune pay you honor at her court,
Nor stint her measure;
May all your ships come safely into port.
Laden with treasure.
Sorrow be far from where your lines re
cast,
fearless your laughter;
True joys be yours, both now ana AZ the
last
Here and hereafter.
So shall you mark, unshadowed by regret.
Times yearly warming:
As enc whose feet are resOiutely set
Straight for the morning.

Great interest still attaches to the
trust triumvirate president Roose-
welt, Representative Littlefield and At
torney General knox-and what these
gentlemen have thought on this sub
ject, as we'll as what they have done, is
now being scanned for indications of
what may be expected in the future,
saws the Washington, d. c., Evening
Star. AS Mr.. Littletield is the only
legislator in the combination, and as he
has been active along this line during
his three years III Congress, there
seems to be trail blazed behind him
which indicates to an undoubted GER
taintv the course he will continue to
pursue when he takes the matter up
next winter. Mr. Littlefeld has been
written to for statement of the condi-
ton of his mind on this question at
the present moment, and in reply he
states that he is receiving similar re-
quests from the press in all sections of
the country; that he deems it best for
himself, as we'll as for the good of the
cause, that he shall say nothing on the
subject at this time Mr.. Littlefield
has corresponded with friends in Wash
ington, however, since he is reputed to
have been selected by the President to
lead rough-rider crusade against great
combinations of capital in the House
next winter. 1t is understood from
this correspondence that the matter
has not progressed to the extent of
definite understanding regarding the
drafting of bill. Mr.. Littlefield is
known to have had frequent conferences
with the President during the last
session of Congress on the subject of
the trust bills which he had introduced,
and on which he was making strong
efforts to secure action. The measure
will no doubt be in the form of a bill to
amend the Sherman law, with a view

Waldoboro's 400 have new diversion,
which the Lincoln County News styles
"a tin shower" 1t says that the func-
ton was suggested by "a leader of socie
ty in West Medford, Mass, where
showers of all kinds are of frequent
occurrence" In the case of a tin
shower friends and neighbors call upon
the hostess with tin in various forms,
mainly, it would appear, useless and
unornamental. Each gift is supposed
to be accompanied by original verse,
from two to twenty-six lines The fol
lowing lines were enclosed with a
strainer:
'I know that | am little
And may be in the way,
But please hang me in the kitchen
And I'll be handy there some day,
If you need to strain the gravy
Or even cranberry sass,
Why use me and I'll do it
And make it smooth as glass.
The News says 'there were many
other equally scintillant gems; but
most of them were too personal for
publication. Following is the menu
of a luncheon, which the News says
was prepared and served as luncheons
are prepared only in Waldoboro:
Sandwiches, Lobster Salad
Olives Pickles
Chocolate Cake Nut Cake
Lemon PattieS
Fancy Crackers Ice Cream
This did not exhaust the good things
or conclude the festivities. Following
the ice water was a musical program Of
marvellous quality. There were songs
of all kinds. but the feature was the
coon song, which as produced would
make May Irwin turn green with envy
Then some of the city visitors gave
their country cousins instructions in a
terpsichorean novelty known as the
Boston dip. This was followed by the
Highland fling. in which all the guests
participated.
