n1aine Gossip

Into a winter wood
AT the rest of the morn L went,
The pine-tree stood like tent
Of errnine fcatnery soft;
The hemlock wore hood;
And many another bole,
Towering far aloft,
Was wrapt in a Samite stole.
A gentle whispering
Seemed waited from tree to tree
Like Il broken melody
Chorded tender and low
1--WE are gossiping of spring"
Said a birch, with Il friendly nod.
"Of how we will joy when the snow
VIII let us look on the sod!
Then came a truant crow
With luSty, rusty, note.
And a squirrel sleek of coat.
With his chirrup ever glad:
So we I'LL chimed in. and ch.
What 4 chcery chatterinS,
Frolicsome time We had
Just gossiping of spring.
Clinton Scollard, in the metropolitan.

The local merchants agree that the
holiday trade was exceptionally large
and most of them say it was the largest
in their experience. This is especially
gratifying when we consider the un-
favorable weather conditions at the
end of the week. 1t shows that the
public appreciated the large and e&-
cellent stocks carried by our enterpris-
ing merchants and also demonstrates
that prosperous times continue with US.

rising man. OF these the former is
ing what is known as the 'bloc" or
combine, consisting of Radicals, Social
lists and Republicans belonging to the
Extreme Left, which has for the most
part, supplied the government with it's
ma jorities; while the latter is the
leader of the more moderate element
in the Legislature and in the country.
The correspondent of the Inquirer goes
on to say:
"It is thought that the chances are
greatly in favor of NJ. FalilereS' III
France the President is elected by the
Chamber of Deputies and the Senate
sitting in Joint session, and until very
recently each of these bodies has been
contracted by the ministerial combine.
A few days ago, however, an incident
occurred which showed the combine
to he less secure than it's members had
imagined. On test vote the sup
| norters of NJ. Doumer developed
ma iority of six. This would not in
itself be decisive or even serious, for
IN lNc oelidlc tle oIoS iiiS Il
ity of 76 and On joint ballot the coal
ition candidate would have SO votes TO
spare, but there is another circum-
stance which complicates the situation
and obscures the issue. That circum-
stance is the impending retirement of
One-third of the Senatorial member
ship. There are 100 Senators to be
chosen early in January by process
which renders it very difficult to fore
ca st the result. The election of French
Senators is indirect, through the in
strumentality of an electoral college
composed % of the Senators, Deputies,
Councillors General and District Coun-
cillOrS of the Department, and co OF
delegates chosen by the Municipal
Council of each commune in numbers
proportioned to the population of the
same"
1t will be seen that this arrangement
gives the party in power an advantage
and the political complexion of the
Senate could not be changed by any
thing less than an electoral landslide.
lieres, the combine candidate. is pref
ty we'll assured. Yet, as landslides do
happen once in 4 while even in France,
where the disposition always is to sup
port the government, there is just
enough uncertainty in the outlook to
render the contest interesting. 1t is,
of course, an anomaly that the next
President should be chosen in large
part by Il chamber which is about to
expire. but as the Chief Executive of
France is little more than a figure
whose every act must be counter
signed by a Minister, the personality
of the President is not Il vital matter.

Probable locations for the Reed Me
mortal statue in Portland are already
being discussed and two Of them are
declared to be excellent. The most
favorably regarded is Congress Square.
According to the gossip going about, it
Is planned to have the property occu-
pied by the drug store condemned by
the Legislature and the statue erected
i'll the heater. Another location is at
the head of Park street on the DR..
Marshall property which might be Sc
cured either by purchase or by con-
demnation proceedings. Both of these
places are regarded with favor and it is
more than probable that one of them
may be chosen. Then general senti-
ment Is to have the monument erected
somewhere near the center of the city
While 1t may be seen by everybody
passing through the principal street
and not at one end where one would
nave to make special trip to view it.

Look up, not down; look forward,
not back" may be u safe motto to fol-
low in a moral and religious sense, but
at this time cf the year the man who
walks out on the street can hardly tell
which way it is safest tor him to look.
If he looks up he is likely to step upon
spot of ice and get bad fall. If he
looks down an icicle may drop off the
roof and knock him senSelesS. If he
LOOKS forward a boy may come sliding
along behind him on a sled ana upset
him. And so it goes. From this it is
plain that the only rule about looking
for a man to follow is to look out.

TRAVELLING In

TRAVELLING IN TE-Phillip
Neville, of whom much has been writ
ten during the past few months, left
last night for San Antonio, Texas,
where he will spend the winter. Ne
vile claims right to the title of the
Baron of Latimer and recently he
came into considerable wealth through
the sale of an English estate. For
many months he lived in a shanty on
the city dump but since he came into
his inheritance he has occupied apart
ments at the Hotel Adams. On leav-
ing the city last evening he travelled
in state, having engaged the draw
ing room of the Pullman from this
city to FL Paso. For years Neville
in his occupation of prospector walked
on foot behind a burro over half the
mountains in Arizona. To a friend he
impaired the information that the
coming year he would return to his
home in England.
A BRONCO HlBITlON-There
was a wild and fantastic exhibition on
Washington street about shutdown last
evening of what a why and muscular
little horse can do when he gets real
scared He was fastened to a stone
-llCHHS weight lIdI Weighs dDOul SlA
ty pounds, som ewhere in the vicinity
of the Alkire store. He became fright
ened at something and began jump
ing up into the sky, coming back to
earth once in a while to get a fresh
toe hold for a new series of kicks. All
the time he was dragging the heavy
stone weight by the bit and the rope
was just long enough to permit the
rock TO dangle midway between his
front and hind feet. When the horse
realized that he was in for it he began
trying to run away from the rock,
kicking it at almost every jump. He
narrowly escaped a collision with
three buggies in which women were
riding and frightened a half dozen
other teams in the succeeding
few minutes as there were more bug
gies than usual in that vicinity at the
time. The horse finally ran round the
corner of the Berryhill store, then
across the street TO the side of the
Goldberg store, circled on the sidewalk
in front of the boxes that stand on the
curbing, then into and across the
street to the front of the telephone Of
flee where he was finally stopped. And
through it all the heavy hitching
weight was tossed about like a cork.
The horse was not seriously injured
though his feet and legs were bruised
up considerably and the only wonder
is that he did not break them all.

Inherited Headaches

Some people who see we'll and yet
are subject to headaches make the
claim that their trouble cannot posi-
bly, be due to eyestrain because they
inherited their headaches from par
ents or grandparents.
They are incredulous at the sugges-
tion that it is not the headache which
they inherited, but the condition of
eye strain which produces them, and
that if their forefathers had lived in
the present generation they might have
found permanent relief in the wearing
of glasses.
If you are one of these doubling
ones avail yourself of our scientific
method of relieving eyestrain and
