OUR TREASURE IN KEATS.
His Poetry of Three Dime nsiona-
Height, Breadth and Solidity.

His Poetry of Three Dime nsiona-
Height, Breadth and SOlidity.
In reading Keats one is s,ruck with
the wealth of his equipment, the solid
qualities of his art, his soaring imagi-
nation, his rare sense of beauty. his
range of emotional response. his rich
resources of language and, not the
least noteworthy, his capability of
growth in taste. To consider what a
poet thus endowed might have given
to the world had he lived to the age Of
Shakespeare or Milton excites the
mind almost Ia pain, so little short Of
miracle was his actual achievement.
We believe there is no evidence that
he wrote line of verse after his twen-
ty-fifth year, and he probably wrote
little after his twenty-fourth, and yet
what glorious body of life and inspi-
ration he has left! 1t is poetry of three
dimensions-height, breadth and solid
ity. And yet, withal, it has arrowlike
intensity-a quality Of which he HIM
self said, THE excellence of every art
Is its Intensity, capable of making all
stisagreeables evaporate from their be-
ing in close relationship with truth and
beauty"
His subscriptions of the classic into
medern speech in Hyperion" and La
mia" the wonderful music and color
Of 1.-THE Eve of st. Agnes" the deft
and eerie handling Of ballad themes in
"La Belle Dame sans Merci' and lisa
bella: or The Pot of BASIL" the over
towing dreaminess of midsummer In
the lode to Nightingale" the depth
and lyric directness of such lines as
'In Drear Nighted December" and a
whole anthology of noble sonnets in
terpreting life and nature-these are
but a moiety of the overfowing stream
of his passionate imaginings, for in
him the intellectual and the emotional
were kindly mixed. In the face Of
such q record OF good work the faults
Of his earlier manner are not worth
consideration.-Cent
Rise Above Your Troubles.
No matter what cares, anxieties or
prove yourself a weakling by going
down before them, but show yourself
noble in rising above them and mold
ing them to life's purpose. Rather bear
an insult than give one; rather dry
tear than cause one to be shed. How
many celebrities we would have If
men would be as anxious to make their
own fame as they are to unmake the
fame Of others,

About Certain words.

There is often a hint of something
approaching to an ancient kind OF slang
In various dignified words in the Eng
lish language. 80 respectable a term
as "perspicuity," for instance, means
that thing can be "seen through
easily. The word apocalypse" means
lifting of the cover" or, In other
words, the revelation Of whatever good
or bad things may be concealed In
chest of secrets like Pandora's box pos
sibly, or maybe only In the lunch
basket of some old Greek workingman.
"Impediment," coming from Latin
word meaning to catch or hold the
feet, vividly expresses the nature OF
anything that entangles or hinders one
in the performance OF any action. Still,
to speak of an impediment In ones
speech is I'm a certain way to get ones
foot I'm ones mouth.
Conspiracy" comes from q Latin
word meaning to breathe together. The
picture 1t gives Of group Of plotters
with their heads thrust up in COM
pact bunch is vivid enough to render
enjoyable the sarcasm of the old Ro-
man who invented the term.-Chicago
News.
The Camel as y Soldier.
The camel is a good soldier, says
London writer. 1t may be stupidity,
and it may be bravery. but camel Is
as steady under fire as tower. The
Persians mounted small cannon on the
backs of their camels and called them
Eambwahs, or "little wasps." This
fashion was adopted in India, and aft
er the battle of Sobraon 1900 of these
artillery camels were captured. In the
Indian mutiny the British had cam
ell corps of 100 beasts, and on the back
of each camel sat Scotch highlander
in his kilt. In 1S45 Sir Charles Napier
had camel corps in Sindh, and in one
day he marched seventy-fve miles,
defeated q brigand chief and marched
home again. In 1878 the British used
camels against the Afghans, and the
government paid for $4,000 camels that
died in those campaigns. Many OK
these were driven to death by their
owners in order that they might claim
the government bounty.

At the afternoon session of the court
Friday, Charles f. SturSis of Augusta,
filed denurrerS on four old liquor
cases, the sureties being Charles f..
Miller and Charles J.. Humphrey of
Augusta. Arson NJ. Goddard. Esq, of
Augusta. appeared as counsel for the
respondent.
The case of Dennis f. Burke of the
Togus community, an appealed search
and seizure case, was continued until
the September term, the respondent
furnishing bail for his appearance. the
sureties being Alta V. Head and Ben
iamin c. Humphrey of Augusta. This
case was tried at the January term,
but the jury failed to agree. Melvin E.
Sawtelle. Esq. of the firm of Sheldon
& Sdwtelle of Augusta. appeared as
counsel for the respondent.
Joseph Williamson. Esq. counsel for
Hartford II. Noble, who was indicted
for maintaining a liquor nuisance in
Chelsea. raised the question of misnO-
mer. contending that the name of the
respondent was Hartford H. Noble, and
not Hartford H. Noble, as named in
the indictment. Attorney Williamson
presented the voting list of Ward of
the city of Augusta which gave the
name as Hartford H. Noble. as evil
dence to substantiate his claim. The
respondent took the stand and testi-
fed that his name was Hartford H.
Noble. that he was named after DR..
Hartford H. Knowles, that his enlist
ment papers in the army service read
Hartford H. Noble and that he was
known as Buster or "Buss' and not
as Hartford H. Noble.
Moses Noble of Augusta, father of
the respondent, stated that the name
was Hartford Fl. Noble and that he was
named after DR.. Hartford H. Knowles.
At the request of County Attorney
Leigh the case was continued until
Saturday morning, when Deputy Sher-
ifs George H. Ames and Mark L. Rol-
lins of Chelsea will be called upon to
testify in the case.

No Twilight In Mexico.

There is almost no twilight in Mex
leo. You watch the sun, blazing orb,
descending with growing swiftness and
wreathed in veil of fire toward the
horizon Around, the air is amber tint
ed, glowing. Suddenly it begins to
drop behind the distant mountains, and
the shadows advance across the plain,
swallowing up the landscape in mellow
gloom. The shadow draws near and
nearer-envelops the town. Behind you
the sky Is still lit up with the rosy
beams. A line Of shadow creeps swift
ly up the rugged sides Of old Popocate-
petl, obscuring completely the base Of
the mountain as it advances. Up, up
the snow capped crest, deepening in
tint until at last 1t hangs like great
opal against the darkening sky. A mo-
ment 1t remains so, glowing and quiv-
ering as IL on flre-grows smaller and
Is gone. Night has come.
Through the dusky silence you seek
your hotel, passing on the roadside ST.
lent figures, fago6 laden. "Adios, Sc
nor" Their soft voiced greeting falls
upon your ear like a benedction.-Lee

Unless early and correct treatments
applied the patient seldom survives
when once the disease is fastened upon
her. Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is the most efficient treat
ment for kidney troubles of women,
and is the only medicine especially
prepared for this purpose.
When a woman is troubled with pain
or weight in loins, backache, frequent,
painful or scalSing urination, swelling
of limbs or feet, swelling under the
eyes, an uneasy, tired feeling in the
region of the kidneys or notices brick
dust sediment in the urine, she should
lose no time in commencing treatment
with Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound as it may be the means of
saving her life.
For proof, read what Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound did for Mrs.
Sawyer.
&C. cannot express the terrible suffering ]
had to endure. A arrangement of the female
organs developed nervous prostration and a
serious kidney trouble The doctor attended
me for year, but kept getting worse, until
my mind could not live. i finally decided
to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound as last resort, and am to-day a well

passed from the crotch of one tree to
another and noosed rope tied to its
center. The prisoner would be placed
on a pork barrel-an American pork
barrel for the grim irony-and it would
be kicked from under him.
AT the hour named by the colonel
the troops were under arms and form
ed three sided square around the gal
lows. Then the prisoner was brought
out. His elbows were tied behind him,
and In his contempt for the Cubans
who had sold their officer the colonel
ordered the two men to march with
the condemned man and act as his ex-
ecutioners. They had sold man for
money, but when. it came to playing
the part of hangmen they rebelled.
They hung back, but the colonel or
dered the lash applied.
When the prisoner was led under the
noosed rope the colonel faced him and
made him a butt of ridicule. He point
ed at his rags, at his starved looks, at
his unkempt appearance, and the SOL
diers in line laughed. From ridicule
he turned to sarcasm and thence to
abuse and revilement, and during the
long half hour the prisoner faced him
calmly without word. There were
not ten men in the lines who did not
feel a secret admiration for him. The
colonel had failed to shake his nerve,
and, chagrined and angered, he order
ed one Of the deserters to place the
barrel and the other to assist the pris-
oner to mount.
Then 1t was that one Of the betray-
ers felt the stings of conscience. He
was the one who was placing the bar
rel. He knew what he was going to
do would bring him perhaps a more
cruel death than that designed for his
captain, but he did not hesitate. Like
Hash he whipped out knife and cut
the prisoners bonds, and, though talk
en- by surprise, Captain Tom bounded
away toward the forest.
In his excitement the colonel called
upon the lines to fire and ran after
the fleeing man. A volley was let go,
and when the smoke cleared away the
colonel lay dead on the ground, the
victim of twenty bullets.
For moment every soldier seemed
dumb and without power to move.
Then there We're shouts and yells, and
the lines broke and became q mob.
When order was restored the rene
gades were no longer in sight. The
jungle sheltered them and the captain
they had betrayed
Poor devils!' the released man said
81 don't blame you much. It's hard
road to liberty, and man has to be
something more than n fishworm to
win It,"

are deadly to the ant people"
could not you and use the black

But we VIII say words or our own.

our ther-grandfathers always called

SO the ant people were exterminated

"Gran~ery a Good Word.

The question often arises, SHOULD
we use the word granger In speaking
of member of the granger We see
no valid objection to its use and good
authority for 1t. The Standard Die
tionary defines granger" as "a mem
Der of the farmers grange or Order of
Patrons of Husbandry." Webster's In
ternational employs the term and de-
fines 1t as "a member Of the grange"
When such good authorities as these
make use Of the word we shall not
hesitate to recommend its use. 1t is
merely q matter of sentiment to OPP
pose 1t. Some look upon the word
granger" as a term of reproach, but
how can 1t be such when our most en-
lightened citizens and the best people
of the land consider 1t an honor to be-
long to the grange? Indeed, we have
as members high public officials, even
governors of states and senator's and
assemblymen in large number. A
more common use of the word "gran-
ger" TO designate member of the
grange would serve to relieve It of any
seeming opprobrium that now attaches
to it,
