The Number Seven.

Seven is a very lucky number, and
judging from its frequent use as a
great mystical and symbolical number,
it was also very popular In days gone
by. There are seven days in the
week, and the seventh day is kept
holy. There are seven deadly sins
pride, covetousness, lust, anger, glut-
tony, envy, and sloth. There are
seven virtues-fsith, hope, charity,
prudence, temperance, chastity, and
fortitude. The seven champions Of
Christendom were st. George for En-
gland, st. Andrew for Scotland, st.
Patrick for Ireland, st. David for
Wales, St. Dennis for France, ST.
James for Spain, and st. Anthony for
Italy. There were seven wise men OF
Greece, there were seven ages Of man,
Rome was built on seven hills, there
were seven ancient wanderers. and q
celebrated legend has seven sleepers
for it's heroes.

Success of Summer Schools.


Hon. w. W. Ststson, State superinteu-
dent OF schools, lie feeling very juoilant
over the results OF the summer schools
which have been held In Maine this year.
Mr.. Stetson says that there are three
points connected with the schools which
are striking and that to these may be
added one which he makes himself, Civ
ing q total OF four. They are:
First, that the schools have all been
held in small communities.
Second, that at three OF the four schools
the attendance has been larger than at
any previous schools.
Third, that the teachers who attended,
one and all, say that the corps of instruct
ore this year Las never been equaied In
the past.
Fourth, that the State superintendent
believes that the results which will come
of the schools this year viii be the most
pronounced that have ever been known.
MIR. Stetse n is more than ever convinced
OF the value of these summer schools in
promoting educational work. 1t brings
the teachers together so that they may
exchange ideas and at the same time gives
them the benefit of the instruction from
those OF much greater experience. He
hopes to see the scope OF the work greatly
increased.

The Up-River Fair.

tions as that there would be no up-river
