though they have decided that the

SUNDAY DINNERS.
But Little Change in Market Dur.
ing the Week.
Strawberries May Now Be Bought for
80 Cents.

Changes in the prices of neccssaries
for the Sunday dinner have not been
numerous during the past week. In a
few particulars prices are less than
they were a week ago, but in other
instances the cost of standard articles
either remain the same or are a little
bit higher. On the whole, it will cost
the average family about the same
amount of cash as usual to provide a
bang-up dinner for Sunday consump-
ton.
Early in the week eggs were plenty
and the price went down cent or two
on the dozen. but now they are back to
the quota tiOnS of a week ago. Dealers
are now paying Is cents and are re-
failing for Is cents. Eggs We're very
scarce, yesterday, and big orders were
cut down.
The biggest drop of the week is re-
ported in Strawberries. Big, luscious
red Strawberries can now be bought in
the stores at 80 cents box, while last
week the price was so cents.
The wholesale concerns have added
half cent to the price of fresh beef,
but the dealers still adhere to the same

raises the dealers can stand is a ques-
ton, but if they keep coming as they
have recently the prices in the local
| markets will jump upwards a point or
two. Pork remains the same, dealers
paying ~ to 8 cents. Chickens, both
domestic and Western. bring 20 cents
a pound. Native chickens are scarce
and the market depends almost wholly
| upon the Western product.
There is no change recorded in the
potato market. Tubers still retail for
81 bushel Apples, fine, prime, fancy
apples, retail for 81 barrel.
| Spinach has dropped to 80 cents a
peck. The first consignments of beet
green's have arrived and bring 35 ce:ts
a peck. There is a small amount Of
celery in the market at 25 cents a

pound Fresh tomatoes sell for Is cents
a pound and sweet potatoes are sold
six pounds for a quarter. Bermuda
onions now sell for cents a pound.
Maine maple syrup is very scarce

into market and the general impression

these parts. Since the first day of Apri

Another Phase Of the Malaga
Island Controversy.

Coming in Rapidly.

Another chapter in the Malaga
island case has been completed. ChaS
V. MinOtt, Jr., of Phippsburg, who Is
interesting himself in looking up the
ancient records bearing upon the
whole territory involved in the con-
troversy, has received a letter from
VIM. NJ. Olive. secretary of the Com
monwealth of Massachusetts in regard
TO the Incorporation of the town OF
Georgetown. 1t has been thought thai
an examination of the law establishing
Georgetown would disclose valuable IN
formation concerning the exact legal
loca ton of the island of Malaga But
the records do not bear out this IDEA
In fact, the matter is just as far from
solution as ever.
Secretary Olive writes that the town
of Georgetown was not incorporated

lative order providing for the MAIN
tenance of a small force at ArfoWsl'
island at the public expense, ana con-
stituted the island OF ArroWslc d
township by the name of Georgetown.
He also saws that subsequent enact
ments. covering alterations in It's
territory. set offs, etc, may be found III
the acts and resolves of the Province
and of the commonwealth.
MIR. Minott writes the Governor that
he has made very careful Investigations
into the histories and records of the
town round about Malaga island, and
still contends that. while nothing of
very positive nature has been dlscoV-
cred, the impression has been obtained
that the island is still a part of North
Yarmouth, because it appears to be IAN
island in Casco bay"
\ most peculiar complication has
arisen on Malaga island within a few
days. one of the young men OF the
island has made application to a JUS

Besides Bangor. the towns Of Masardis,
Ripley and Vanceboro have recently
made application.
The creation of the law for the i'm
provement of State roads was sanctioned
by the Legislature of 1901 as an expcr-
iment. From the manner in which the
towns have begun to avail themselves of
its provisions this year. it looks as If the
Legislature of 1903 will feel obliged to
more literally provide for the future than
its predecessors thought it wise to do.
The appropriation for the purpose is $l5,-
900 and the maximum amount any town
may obtain is 500 SO that with $4,000 to
draw upon, and 80 towns can take adj
vantage of its provisions, and those who
first apply are first served.
Following the example set by Maine the
state of New York has passed good
roads law. which amends the old high
way law, so that the State shall pay ~
per cent of the cost of building and re
pairing county highways where towns
vote FOR the cash instead of for the labor
system for road improvement. The law
formerly provided that the State should
meet only 25 per cent of the expense.
Last year, under the former law, the
State paid $4,000 for road Improvement
1t is estimated that this year under the
new law it will spend $4,000

Familiarity Aids the Sight.

The exceptional powers of vision at
tributed to uncivilized men and to civ
ilized men who pass their lives In the
open air, supposing they exist, are cas-

which the supposed possessors of such
sight have been long trained to see.
The shepherd distinguishes sheep

place and objects and the other is not
The herdsman distinguishes cattle and
the huntsman his prey because they are

but which they perceive almost uncon-

also guess more, than the casual OBJ

The Trying Year of Marriage.

Which is the most trying year for
newly married people? 1t has general
ly been assumed that the first year is
the trying year, since then the pair are
serving an apprenticeship. l cannot
help considering married life a bust
ness partnership. for which an appren-
tlceship is required before either party
is competent for the life work in
which they have engaged. OF course 1t
is more than a business partnership, for
there is the sentimental phase of the
subject which cannot be overlooked
and is never wholly ignored; but the
business feature is often slighted. New
ertheless the first year is more or less
continuance of the honeymoon, and
the romance continuing does much to
smooth over difficulties, differences Of
opinions, trials with temper, and the
struggle which always occurs between
the wills Of the two parties for SUI
premacy. assume that no two people
meet together even socially for any
length of time without the occurrence
unconsciously of struggle for the
mastery, often so politely conducted as
to be unnoticeable. In married life in
every instance the husband or the wife
is the master. The question as to who
is the master depends upon the COM
parative strength Of will of the two
individuals-Green's Fruit Grower.
