himself near North Berwick on the
last day of the old year: when drlv-

speak to some friends, when a robin
came and perched on the whip shaft,
which my ccachman was holding in q
slanting position not more than foot
or two from my face.
Robin sat looking earnestly at me
with his beady black eyes with the
most perfect confidence for nearly
half a minute, and did not mind the

empty hand. All birds, and especially
the robin, are very fearless In this

A Novel Skate.

A novelty which has been brought
out during the present season consists
of a skate which folds so completely
that pair may be carried in mans
pocket or a iady's muff. On the foot
the folding skate has much the same
appearance as the ordinary one, but
dpon being removed the portions by
which it Is attached to the shoe are
foldable SO that they occupy a posi-
ton parallel to the blade. Thus they
form a fat shape less than a half-inch
in thickness. A wallet Is furnished
with each pair, one skate being fitted
into each {. the pockets. 1t makes a
parcel less than an inch in thickness
and of a length slightly greater than
that of the skate.

beautiful mcG lis are shown in louisne,

Black linens and cottons are pref.

made Ward McAllister the arbiter ele-

they keep the patron waiting for
change, and while he waits he looks

of recluse, in his country home, sur
rounded by books. The house is small,
though extremely comfortable. One
day he was showing a friend over the
place, when the visitor said: In your
books you describe huge castles and
baronial halls, but when you come to
build you put up a little house like
this. Why is it," Well" replied the
author, with twinkle in his eye, the
reason is because words are cheaper

Regarding linoleum.

To keep linoleum in good order and
to preserve it, let 1t be washed very
seldom. If 1t gets dirty and needs to
be washed 1t should be done with q
flannel dipped in warm soapy water,
then thoroughly dried. for If any water
is left on 1t will percolate through the
linoleum and make 1t rotten on the
under side. 1t should be well polished
with flannel dipped in beeswax and
turpentine, or little plain linseed oil,
then polished with cloth. Rubbing
with a cloth dipped in milk keeps the
surface clean and in good condition,
and prevents It wearing.

PREDICTS DEMOCRATIC
VICTORY IN TAFT'S STATE
REPUBLICAN SPLIT MAKES 1T
LIKELY
Representative Bannon Says That For
aker-Taft EmbrogIio May Lose
State to Party at Next
Election

WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.-Repres en-
tative Henry T. Bannon of Portsmouth,
Ohio, who was in Washington yester-
day, express ed some emphatic views on
the political situation in his state and
also on the tariff question. Speaking
of the So-called Taft-Foraker contro-
versy, he said:
"That contest, in so far as it affects
the Republican party, is bad one.
Senator Foraker is great man, and I
am radically opposed to all this talk
about eliminating him. Why, he has
led the Republican party to victory in
Ohio for thirty years. He had to fight
for everything he ever got. The fight
against him is unfair, and he is fight
ing back. A good many people out
there, say he shall not go back to the
senate. But there is no candidate for
his seat. L haven't heard of any as
yet, but they have forced him TO fight
all along the line without any one
coming out in the open against him.
81 have hoped for harmony; the old
Mark Hanna brand is good enough for
me. If the fight continues. the success
of all may be put in jeopardy, and we
may have Tom Johnson in the senate
from Ohio. True Ohio went Republic
can by more than a quarter of mil
lion in 1904 but it went Democratic for
BONeIHOI IlC HSAL ycdl w fV,OVVf eNAN'
the legislature is now Republican by
only one on joint ballot. How big
fight in our own ranks is going to in
crease that legislative majority l fail
to see. But harmony can do 1t, and L
earnestly hope for that. The forces
are drifting farther and farther apart.
Foraker has challenged Taft's posi-
tion on the tariff and defended his own
views on the Hepburn bill. The latter
| - lie N n
part of the law of the land. Taft may
urge that, as a result of the Hepburn
law. thousands of rates have been re-
duced. Then some one may look up
how many have been increased. The
tariff will be treated prominently by
Secretary Taft, I understand, and thus
we bid fair to drift farther apart. 10
the especial delight of the Democratic
party am in favor of political peace
and 1 believe, by proper enorI we
can have 1t in Ohio.
some say that outsiders are the
cause of our trouble. Well, 1 don't
know about that. But I do know that
this is still a free country, and that
Senator Foraker has just as much right
to his views as any one else, ana that
he has the right to express them; put

we'll retire a Judge on the ground that

honor. but If it is not, Foraker Will
