OF Casco Bay who wish to fill their
houses with desirable guests during
the season just opening. There are
tens OF thousands Of perplexed men
and women within the territory COW

have determined to patronize some
such house during the summer or
part of the summer. but do not know
where they can find suitable accom-

Judge Taylor. for the first time 10y
any Federal Judge. has decided that
the practice Of splitting bills is a crime
In defending three Greeks charged
with splitting bills. Attorneys Mat
thews and Billman set up the novel
defense thatit was no crime to paste
the back OF n one-dollar bill upon the
back Of a five-dollar bill. inasmuch as
the splitting OF the bills destroyed
their value rs money. In his decision
Judge Taylor found that splitting bills
constituted an alteration OF the money
against which the Federal statutes
specifically provide. The jury found
one Of the Greeks. william Mihataka-

USE OF KNITTING AS
A NERVE CURE.
The Old Doctor Tells His Patient
That Il Induces a Cam and Cheer.
ful Frame Of Mind.

1t Is told Of Robert Louis Stevenson
that one Of the many things he learned
to do to keep him amused when he was
restless or iii was to knit. There are
many men Of generation much older
than ours who improve odd moments
by working with yarn and needles.
But women to be women, simply must
knit after their hair Is grey, aud ii is
good for them.
MY prescription, madam. is that you
knit two hours daily" said the ply
stefan.
Knit" exclaimed the nervous pa
tient. why on earth should I knit:''
The doctor replied: because moth
ing is more soothing to the nerves;
because nothing induces to such n calm
and cheerful frame Of miEd. I could
prescribe Veteran for you. but knitting
will be better. 1t will do you much
more good. believe that a month OF
1t will cure YOU"
He went on to explain that his at
tention had been called to an article in
medical journal on the beneficent
effects Of knitting, and he had pre-
scribed the treatment, with excellent
success, to n dozen women.
The shining needless" he said, "play.
ing swiftly among soft-colored silks
or woods, engage the eyes pleasantly,
and ill the mind with CHEEKY and sane
thoughts. At the same time they may
produce admirable things-golf waist
coats, golf stockings Of wool. delicate
evening stockings Of silk, shawls, a
hundred articles"
The woman smiled. and said she did
not know how to knit, but she would
learn at once.

The story Of the Accomplishment { Of
three years In Harrisburg under an
able, courageous and interested head
reads like a romance. The Mayor be-

administrative head Of the city corpor-
alton, not as. mere executive figure

into continuously vigorous action, as
contrasted with the far more usual
passive mayoralty.

the law. A corrupt police force. col.

Political appointees in the city de-
partments were replaced by men Sc
lected for superior qualifications. and
in at least one case Mayor Mccormick
supplemented an insufficient salary
from his private means i'm order to get
a capable man.
Harrisburg had three years ago
about four miles of paved streets,
which had been carelessly put down at
a high price and were allowed to go

the three-year period nearly twenty
