The friends of Mr.. and Mrs. 5. W.
Philbrick residing on Coburn avenue
and in the immediate vicinity called,
Monday evening, at their home to as
sist them in celebrating the tenth ami
versary of their marriage. The affair

Ward, and arrived home at 80 to find
themselves literally in the hands of
their friends.
Mrs. Philbrick was asked to read aloud

which the guests had accompanied each

from Mr.. and Mrs. F. w Allen, former
neighbors, and an original poem, written
for the occasion, by Mrs Margaret Pres

tain very pleasant memories of Mr., and
Mrs PhilUrick's anniversary.

Indian Mothers and Dolls.

When an Indian girl dies her mother
often substitutes doll for her lost lit
tie one, She fills the empty cradle with
feathers, arranged In the form Of the
child. and carries this around with her
wherever she goes, talking to 1t and
caressing it as she would her loving
child.
If she does not do this she ties in
tight bundle the toys. clothes and arm
lets which belonged to her little one
and, fastening this to the cradle board.
carries it M she had formerly done her
child. The Otibways call these 'unlucky
dolls" because they represent the dead.
The reason the Indian mother carries
her doll" in this pathetic way Is be-
cause she thinks that the little dead
child is too small to find its way to
paradise. BY substituting the doll 1t
will help along until the dead baby has
grown large enough to make its way
to the spirit land alone. At least this
Is what the sad Indian mother believes.

Animal Arithmetic,

A certain Mr.. TiniotieR was the hap
by possessor of dog that was able 10
calculate with precision. One day,
having been fed large platter of
chicken bones. lie found twenty-six
left over when his appetite was salts
fed. These he proceeded to bury care
fully In different places, as all dogs do.
The day following he dug up and ate
twenty-five, went to sleep, suddenly
woke up, apparently with something
on his mind, hesituted n moment dug
up his twenty bone, ute 1t and
went to sleep, this time soundly.

him he ate them up and flew away

Cotton mills are starting up in many
places, after long period of idleness.
This is an encouraging indication. The
high price of cotton and the unsatisfac-
tory sale of the cloth market have COM
bined to make 1t one of the worst sea
sons the industry has ever known, but a
large crop has brought down the price
of raw material and the surplus stocks
of cloth must have been worked off 10 a
large extent. Such indications are apt
to work out remedy and apparently
have In this case, so we may look for a
healthy state In cotton manufacturing.

and even the local demand will be sup
piled this year, as it has been almost
entirely for the past eight years, by
shipments from Aroostook county and,
In some instances, from the Boston mar
ket. Various causes lead to the abar-
donment of turkey raising in this Sec
ton but chief among them seems to
have been a disease which made its ap-
pearance among the flocks about 1896,
recurring at certain time each year,
and causing such loss that the business
could not be continued. Within the past
few years the scattered hocks that have
been raised seem to have been free from
the original trouble and it is likely that
turkey raising might now be resumed by
Somerset farmers with profit.

One condition stands to the detrimont
of the public schools in Maine. That is
the question of wages. In the course of
his remarks at Bangor, last week, Supt
Smith of Auburn said that the average
weekly salary of the teachers OF Maine
was $500 for an average school year of
PSI weeks or total of s197 for the year,
which after deducting board, clothing
and necessary reading matter to keep in
touch with her profession left meagre
sum. The average salary for men
teachers he said was $500 year. Other
states pay much higher wages and are
very liable to draw our brightest and
most profitable teachers away from
Maine schools.
