Health Value Of Laughter.

dOndOn Healthy
1t is good to laugh. There is prob
ably not the remotest corner or little
inlet of the minute blood vessels of the
body that does not feel some wavelet
from the great CONFUSION produced by
hearty laughter shaking the central
man. The blood moves rapidly-prOb-
ably its chemical, electric or vital con-
ditOn is distinctly modified, it conveys
Il different impression to all the organs
OF the body as it visits them on that
peculiar mystic journey when the man
is laughing from what it does at other
times. The time may come when
physicians will prescribe To n torpid
patient so many peals of laughter to
be undergone at such and such n time

AUGUST POEMS
A Village Street.

There swaying branches lace and meet
In canopies of green
Above an Old-time village street
Quiet and cool and clean
The mellow suubeams filter slow
And. interwrOught with shade.
Trace on the velvet sward below
A shimmering brocade.
No sound disturbs the holy hush
That wraps the silent street
Save when ut times some trill of thrush
Drifts TREMENDOUSLY sweet;
Or else, when purple twilight filings
A gauZy veil and thin,
Wake echoes from the tinkIing strings
OF mellow mandolin.
This Is the street, serene and sweet,
Down which in days agone
/ tripped with bare and bOuyant feet
Through dews of dusk and dawn;
Or romped at play with comrades gay
While some long afternoon
Droned slowly, drOwsiIy away
Like bees in fields of June.
Old quiet street, the steps that learn
The city's crowded ways
Once more and eagerly will turn
To scenes of other days;
And sick of ceaSeleSs fray and fret,
CacOphonOuS and rude,
viii seek, while eyes grow dim and wet
Thy restful quietude.

Feminine vanity is largely n matter
of mirrors.
When n man loves n woman, money
is the least he can give her; when he
does not. it is the most.
1t is not what man does that Is OF
importance, but how he comes out Of
it.
Excess of manner is the superior
social art of making others feel their
inferioritY.
To ask personal questions i'm society
is imbocile: to answer them criminal.
The clever woman who would know
everything pretends she knows nothing.
The man who judges woman by her

Maine Farming Notes.

The past few days have been busy
ones on the large farm Of G.. w. Spal-
ding of North Arson. An additional
large force of help is employed during
the berry picking season. Mr.. Spalding
has on his farm. this season, IA acres
of potatoes, 400 apple trees loaded
with choice fruit, two acres of straw
berry plants containing 10000 plants.
1900 BURBERRY bushes some of them
being feet high, y acre Of carrots. u
acre of rhubarb. He has just worked
about Is tons of French dandelions.
His berry crop has been n large one
this season. Mr.. Spalding uses the
latest and most improved machinery
The strawberry crop of Hancock is
turning out well, in some sections bet
ter thar last year. At Hancock Point
the berries are larger and more plenti-
full and there is less complaint con-
corning destruction by the birds. The
Hancock berries are being shipped
largely to Bar Harbor. Bangor and
Boston. The farms of f. w. Wooster,
Colin Penney, w. II. Phillips and
Henry BAN have supplied the markets
mostly this year. The raspberry sea-
son is NOW on, and there is an unusual
demand for the berry, and pickers are
at work il many of the fields. Down
at Lamoine. the strawberry has not
flourished as well as last year, and
while the crop is by no means a failure
it is admitted that not as many have
been gathered from the vines as during
1908. The dry season may have some
bearing upon it, certainly rain has nor
been as abundant as one could wish,
and then others claim that we had a
frost in the spring that blighted tho
blossoms. The growers of small fruit
in Hancock, after the raspberry win
have the blackberry to look after, and
it makes continual summer business
with all conditions favorable a good
revenue. 1t is surprising why more
people of the section do not take an
interest in the culture of berries, for it
is recognized as one that has many
possibilities.
