In the Boys Room.

[ have in mind a bov whom once
heard remark ; "Oh, I'd take the fell
lows up to my room a lot more il
mother hadn't trimmed it all up with
that hideous yellow" Anyone can
realize what an opportunity has
slipped away from that mother.
Science has clearly demonstrated
within this latter day that color has
a distinct and active effect upon the
individual, and without being con-
scious of the reason, many know that
some colors affect them pleasurably
while Others do not. 1t seems a
simple thing then to find out what
color your boy really prefers and to
make it the prevailing tone in his
room. But do not make the mistake
of filling his room with draperies-
boys do not like what they term
"fussy things" Have pretty cur
tains on the windows, but arrange
them so that he will have plenty of
light and air. There is one thing,
however, in which the feminine heart
delights and that the average boy
also admires. 1t is the much maligned
sofa cushion. And here we are not
discussing the sofa cushion of the
"funny column" which no one is al
lowed to touch and which should in
reality be put in glass case. Have
some kind of a sofa in the boy g
room, and do not spare the cushions,
the good, durable cushions that he
will not be afraid to touch-they can
be pretty as we'll. Nearly every boy
has some special pastime in which be
is really interested. See that every
convenience is added to his room and
every inducement offered to epcour-
age him in acquiring knowledge OF
the subject, whatever it may be. 1t
may be that be is interested in some
mechanical line hich will forever dis
turb your pet idea in regard to his
room furnishings. Dismiss your
ideas at once and know that the boy
who is encouraged to "muss around
his ROOM" if he so desires, will enjoy
it and spend much of his time there

The Postoffice Department used to
show a deficit of Sc, 100000 or more
when it's revenues were $50,0O0,00O
less than they are now. With vastly
enlarged business the margin between
expenditures and receipts has stead.
ily decreased. The receipts last year
were $121 ,949 DAT, and the deficit
was 1887, $40. That is a proof Of
excellent management and increasing
efficiency in the postal service. And
it may be added that if congress
would enact laws which would put q
stop to the abuses of postal privileges
that involve cost to the government
with no compensating benefit to the
public the showing would be still more
satisfactory.

One of the best sociables thus far
held this season at the Cong'l church
was that of last Friday evening.
Over 100 took supper and following
this there was an entertainment
made up Of music, reading, charades,
etc, all of which were greatly enjoyed.
The receipts were over $l2. The
coffee for the occasion was gratu-

F. c. Kinney, of the American Sun
day School Union, gave an illustrated
lecture here Sunday evening, descrip'

A conference of the Cong'l churches
in this county was held here last Fri
day. There was a good attendance
of pastors and delegates, all of the
churches save Waterville and VOL
colt being represented. Rev. S. P.
Cook of Massachusetts was present
and advised with the churches as to
the best methods of church work.
The purpose of this movement is to
enlarge the work of the churches. 1t
is not aiming at An old-time revival,
but is seeking to make the fellow
ship of the churches more real
through ministers going out from
their parishes to work a week or two
with pastors in other places, who
have invited their help. Some 40
churches in the state have already
asked such help, and over SO
churches have volunteered to loan
their ministers to meet such calls.
The Forward Movement also con-
templates weekday meetings in dis
tricts lying between the parishes,
and enlistment of the membership OF
the churches in this outreaching work.
Two sessions we're held, morning and
afternoon, and much interest was
manifested.

Useful Information.

Here is a familiar one: When the
boots become water soaked fill them
with oats or barley so they will not
shrink in drying. When very thirsty
and only a small amount of water is
at hand drink it with a spoon or
through a small hole in the cork of q
canteen. 1t will do as much good as
when taken in large mouthtuls. Boil
putrid water in charcoal before drink
ing. Indians purify all waters by
plungiDg hot irons and rocks into
them. When an Indian is cold he
builds small fire and huddles over
it; white man builds big fire and
cannot get near it. When you wish to
roll up your shirtsleeves do not turn
the cuffs inside out, but turn them in
ward or under, and they will remain
tucked up without being touched.
When you want to climb tree unite
the feet with a dampened towel or
raveled rope 40 that their distance
apart shall be about two-thirds the
diameter of the trunk.
Few cooks can boil Irish potatoes
so that they will be dry and mealy.
Camping on the Trail says: "Put
them in boiling salt water after cut
ting small piece eff the eye end"
Our Maine hunters will do we'll to re-
member these things. To prevent
mule from braying, tie a heavy rock
to his tail. If your ra zor-back hog is
unable to root, tie rock to its tail.
Mules are SPLENDID swimmers, unless
by accident they get water in their
ears. When this happens they drop
their ears and cease to move, and
unless gotten out of the water at
once, will drown. Anexcellent substi-
tute for wood or coal are bones, even
those of an animal freshly killed. The
bones of cooked meat give a fire of
great intensity. Indians never think
OF danger ahead, but strongly fortify
the rear. "Ni-ka cum-tux o-cook
