He SWING the Lantern.

a southern senator was at one time
counsel for small railroad. At a
point on the line where 1t crossed a
prominent highway they had an old
negro watchman whose duties consist
ed In warning travellers of the mp
proach OF trains. One night a farm
er's wagon was struck, causing a bad
accident. The railroad company was
of course sued for damages. and at the
trial the old darky was the chief wit
ness for his employers. He answered
the questions put to him In a clear, d.
rect manner. Among them was the
query as to whether he surely swung
his lantern across the road when he
saw the train coming, to which he re-
piled.
deed | did, sab"
The railroad company won the suit,
and the senator took occasion later to
compliment his witness on his excel
lent testimony. The old fellow was
profuse in thanks, but before they
parted bluntly said:
"Lordy, Marse John, | sho' was
skeered when dat lawyer gin to ak me
bout de lantern. | was afeared he
was goin' to ak IL it was lit or not,
cause de oil in 1t done give out some

DIR. Gordon's Platform.

The Portland Advertiser gives atten-
ton 10 speech Of DR.. Gordon, Demo
cratic nominee for congress IL the First
districf, as follows:
Trusts and imperialism Is his theme.
He scores the trusts hard, advocates
removing the tariff from articles manu-
featured by them, advocates free Cana
dian coal and beef, advocates a speedy
granting Of full Independence TO the
Fllipinos. and makes the striking asser-
tion that the Spanish war might have
been sverted and the desired end attained
had the United States suspended trade
relations with Spain for thirty days.
There is reason to think, however, that
DR.. Gordon underes Inmates The strength
Of Spanish pride and the Importance Of
/ American trade to Spain II he thinks
! she could have been brought TO terms so
easily. AS 10 the trusts. the admins
tration Is already dealing with Them,
and Congressman Littlefield Is under
stood to be framing new and improved
antitrust bills. Furthermore il will be
for DR.. Gordon to explain what 10 do
with trusts like Standard Oh and anthra-
cite, whose products are already on the
free list, and how it is that the beef trust
| is able 10 invade free.trade England.
| These things need TO be explained before
he can expect general acceptance of bis
theory. Nor is there good ground to
believe that DR.. Gordon can carry this
district on a platform opposing abandon
ment Of the Philippines.

Good VIII Encampment.

The Thursday evening vesper service,
July 3lst, was transferred to the Good
Will Farm side of the river, the occasion
being the breaking of ground for the
new Manual Training building which Is
to be built during the coming year. The
site selected is one of the finest on the
farm, Just few rods north of the Chns.
E. Moody School building and in line
with that and the Moody Memorial chap
ell. 1t is expected that plans will soon be
adopted and the work of placing the
foundations begun.
The service of ground breaking was
simple and impressive, the program be-
ing as follows: Singing, "How Firm a
Foundation" reading OF the 37th Psalm
by Rev. G. w. Hlnckley prayer by Rev.
E. G. Herrick of Charlestown, Mass. !;
singing, my Faith Looks Up to Thee" :;
brief address by Rev. II. W. Kimball of
Skowhegan, and turning of first sod by
Mr.. Kimball; cheers for the donors !;
turning of second sod by Mr.. Rev. |. b.
Mower Of South Berwick; cheers for the
workmen.
Mr.. Kimbal's address, though brief,
was beautiful In diction and excellent in
taste and spirit. This was the 22i time
that Mr.. Hinckley had read this psalm
on similar occasions, and it never rang
out with more of promise and encourage
ment.
At 730, in the Auditorium, Rev. H.
W Kimball told in a very interesting
manner the story of some of the manu-
scripts of the Bible, the interest being
deepened by a series of pictures which
were thrown upon the screen by the use
Of the stereopticon.
Services were held on Sunday at the
Pines In the auditorium, morning at
1890, afternoon at 90 and T 30 in the
evening, which was the closing service
OF the assembly.
For full 10 days the program has been
carried out without hitch, no one has
been heard to express disappointment or
dissatisfaction; no grumblers have
found their way into camp. There was
not day of real sickness. The outlook
for future annual assemblies is bright.
Already plans are in mind for the next
years work In this beautiful grove Of
pines.

The Perfect Head.

A perfect head, viewed from the side,
falls within a perfect square, ayerag-
Ing nine inches for man and sl2
inches for a woman. The width of he
face is equal to five eyes. The distance
between the eyes Is equal to one eye.
The size of the eye is two-thirds that
of the mouth. The length of the nose
Is one-third the length of the face. The
ear is, at all ages, as long as two eyes.
Although these are the ideal measure
ments and are approximately adhered
to, SO fond OF irregularity Is nature
that rarely any face corresponds TO
them. The two sides of any face are
never exactly alike. Strictly speaking,
the face extends only from the chin TO
the root of the nose. Above that point
is the brain case. For a well developed
brain the width of the head just above
the ears, measured with callipers,
should be from 81 to 612 inches, and
the height from the opening of the ear
to the top of the crown should've ex
actly the same. In women both height
and width are one inch less than in
men, women's heads approaching the
type belonging to children.-London
Magazine.

Trade Condition.

r. G. Dun & Co. g review of trade fol-
last week says:
Aside from heavy rains in Texas the
weeks crop news Is encouraging
Manufacturing plants are all occupied

ed by textiles and foot wear. Fuel
scarcity is still causing delay, although
coke ovens are surprising all previous
figures of output and bituminous mines
are vigorously operated.
At most points retail trade is active,
and preparations continue for heavy
fall sales. The leading departments OF
the iron and steel industry may prop
erly be considered prosperous. or en-

delivery in 1902 being out of the ques

In textile manufacturing the feature
was the opening of mems wear worsted

Corn is still moving slowly. Cotton

The Duration of Sleep.

One of the most important factors OF
good health, says the Neuropath, is a
sufficient amount of regular sleep. Dur
ing sleep, the brain and the nervous sys-
tenn recuperate themselves, and both will
suffer accordingly if sleep is not sufficiently
INDUCED in. 1t is certainly not so easy to
lay down general rules as to the exact du-
ration of sleep. In grown-up people the
need of sleep varies very much. 1t is in
fuenced by the condition of the body.
Several experienced physicians have, how
ever. computed table of average figures,
and individual parties should try to train
their personal needs for sleep accordingly.
OF course it should be well understood
that the length of sleep should be COM
puted according to the age of each indi-
vidual

Az His Child Saw Him.

A prominent real estate man in Los
Angeles had an experience few even
ings ago that kept him guessing for a
little bit as to whether he should feel
complimented or otherwise. He was at
home with one little daughter while
his wife and another of the children
were downtown. Darkness was COM
ing on, and the little girl was anxious
ly watching for her mothers return.
Her nervousness grew apace In spite of
the fathers attempts at reinsurance.
AT length the little one burst into
tears. saying:
