The Piscataquis Observer has been
discussing Of late the question, what is
interesting news?" from the standpoint
of the editor of the country newspaper,
and in recent issue published a letter
fror subscriber in another State,
Nho said among other things
You have the right of it in my opinion
as to what is interesting news" for
your paper. 1t is of more interest to
me to know that Thede Wyman is
building new boat, and who is build
ing her, and her name, etc. than to
know that ]. p. Morgan or r. W.
Lawson IS having a new steam yacht
built. with full descriptions.
Two weeks ago | saw that Wlnt Ger
aid was hauling wood at Williamantic;
not much OF an item to be sure, vet
forty years ago | used to play with him
and have often wondered if he was in
the land of the living
Another, writing from Michigan said:
Correspondents ought to be encour-
aged to furnish moIe personal items
They viii not hurt those fortunate
enough to know it all, and one cannot
appreciate how the Wanderer that can
get home only rarely, or not at all. re-
CARDS the few lines that tell him of the
doinss of an old schoolmate or playfel-
low of former years.
And here is q suggestion from a
circular that The editor of the Observer
had printed for the benefit and encour-
agement of his correspondents:
Always remember that everything
that VIII interest some one is news"
The item that is of small account in
your estimation will interest the person
who has left his old home in your field
and is living in another town or State
The letters above quoted are i'll line
with many that we receive from our
Maine people il other States; and it
hardly need be said that we ale in com
plete accord with the Observer as to
what constitutes interesting news.

Old Home Week.

The Old Home week idea has gone beyond
New England borders, as was to be expect
ed. 1t is Maryland that is now discussing
it, and the Baltimore American, the leading
paper of the State, is actively urging Gov
ernor Smith to follow the example of the
New England governors and designate a
union of former residents. While Mary
land, like all States in the East, has sent
many of it's sons to New York and to the
West, the exodus has not been so large as
from the New England section. Still it
ought to have successful Old Home week
and we hope the plan will be carried out
there and in other Atlantic States. "Mary-
land, my Maryland" ought to be splendid
rallying song for the wandering sons and
daughters of the State of the terrapin and

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
Miss Bessie McMahan, formerly of 'O4,
and Charles Harmon and Karl Mcdonald,
'01, have visited school recently.

The farce, "The Elevator" given at the
Memorial Hall Friday night was an unqual-
fled success, from a financial as well as
social point of view. The hall was filled,
and the candy table, in charge of Misses
Alma F. Colby and Frances A. Sargent, did
a thriving business. Messrs. Twombly and
Read, 'O3, had charge of the tickets; Messrs.
Wight and Leavitt, '04, acted as ushers :;
Messrs Talbot and Robert Carter passed
programs. A very enjoyable dance follow
ed the play Mr.. and Mrs. P. d. II. Carter
furnishing the music. The class wish to
express their sincere thanks to their
teachers, who gave their time so freely, to
Miss Dlworth and Messrs. Gould and
knight, 'o3, to Miss Wood, 'o4, and Miss
Katherine Quimby and Mr.. Ernest
Webber, 'O5, all of whom contribut-
ed much to the success of the affair; to
Messrs. F. T. Chase and Walter J. Clifford,
who so kindly contributed their services in
"making up" the company, and also to the
public for their patronage and appreciation
of the efforts of the class. The net pro-
ceeds of the entertainment were sixty dol
lars.

A catalogue of cat cognomens is

A catalogue of cat cognomens is a
literary work awaiting some one, and
the result should be a volume as large
as Webster's Unabridged. AS it is,
many who have feline favorites to
christen find it difficult to select suit
able names. Perhaps they may be aid
ed by few selections from the cata-
logue of a recent exhibition in Paris.
Here are the names of some of the
kittens: Frisotte, Fafatte, Blanchette,
Lolo, Minon. Mouton, Zizi, Didine,
Mimi, Mono, Dada, Palapouf, Riri,
kiki, Toutoute. Among the toms of
divers races were Caesar, Roi de Siam
Black Prince, Negus, Khedive, Mar
quis Caporal, Coco, Cadet, Cyrano and
Aiglon, while among the tabbies were
Pomponette, Miss Helyett, Froufrou,
Javotte, Lolotte, Czarine, Olga, Tall
ana, Dagmar The Paris correspon-
dent of London Truth in writing up
this exhibition speaks rather sighting
ly of the cats of rare breed or long
silky fur" and says, 81 am told that
one should not expect to find much
character or individuality in these toy
animals If cat stories adorn the col
umns of the papers in which they figure,
they are invented. The cat that has
the most invention and original quail
ties is the common brindled tabby
which lives with human beings who,
having to struggle for life themselves,
do not see the harm of letting cats do
likewise"

tiger any and it's awfully risky

Consumption is a tiger
among diseases. 1t is stca1thy
but once started it rapidly
eats up the flesh and destroys
the life. No use to go hunting
it with ordinary food and med.

1t still advances. Good heavy

quarter of the membership is in the
city OF Milwaukee. In the latter city
a local political contest has lately
waged with apparently great
acrimony and state politics have
