Get close to nature. but not too close. Even the simplest of simple life has it's dangers. The news the other day related to the sad experience Of the poetic young man near Chillieothe who chose hay field south Of town a s good place in which to sleep over night, and made his bed in the tall' uncut timothy The thrifty farmer who owns the field started his now ing machine at o'clock in the morn ing and moved over the young nature lover, who awoke to find finger gone and his arm badly mangled. This gives a tremendous setback to Walt Whitman and Pastor Wagner. Has 1t come to this, that the only safe place for a nature lover to sleep is on golf links, where the grass is short and where he would probably be arrested for trespaSs!

IT IS CAMPING-OUT TIME.
Northern Maine Offers Unusual Op-
 portunities.

Northern Maine OHefs lnusual up
 portunities.
 In the cycle of the seasons the ideal camplng-out time of year has arrived. and hundreds of parties have already taken to the deep woods of northern Maine where nature has bestowed her wildwood charms most lavishly and where outing parties are sure of ind ing nlenty of camp sites exactly to their liking.
 People who have tried it say there is no kind of an outing that comes up to camp life in the northern Maine wilderness. It offers the freedom of the great cool woods: ii includes the delights of canoeing on lake and stream and sylvan powered brooks; it brings the best of fishing to ones very door; it puts one in close camera touch with Maine's biz game in Its native haunts: and besides all this there Is the erstacy of wholesome outdoor liy- ing. and the invigorating. strengthen ing. rpiuvenating results which come with if. There are never any dull days with such an outing: there is no such thing as monotony. for no two days are passed alike: each has ifs own hans and mishaps. its own delights and adventures: even the scenery. although ! il is always woods and water. water and woods. is ever changing and ever ! uew-a panoramic treat which cer- tainly knows no superior in all the | world.
 I Men. women and whole families ] from all parts of New England and | even more distant points make north. ! ern Maine their Mecca during the 1 ramuing season. \ great many of ' them come early in August 10 avoid ] the swelter of city life and rest up ! beneath the grateful umbraEe of the ! woods.

 August or early in sePtember. when the warm days and clear. cool nights ' zfr0rf ideal atmospheric conditions and when the early changing of ths I foliage fIIuniines the deep green of ths forest with tints of rare and spectacu Isr hrilliancv.
