weeks issue had the following sketch
of a we'll known Waldo county man:
Albert J. Skidmore of Liberty is one
OF the minority members of the House
for discussion in the lower branch. He
lage, where he has traded for several
on his farm, where he has bred some
very fine Ayrshire stock, which he
believes to be the best dairy stock ever
kept in Maine. He hasn't large herd
but very good one, and says that he is
much happier amongthem than he is
in his store, or in his legislative seat.
He says he did not come to the leglsla
ture because he wanted to, but simply
to heal breach in his party. He was
born in Union 46 years ago, and educat-
ed in the town schools, and at the
Maine Central Institute, Pittsfeld, and
Oak Grove Seminary. Vassalboro. Mr..
Skidmore's popularity is easily shown
when we recall the fact that he has
been on the school committee, been
superintendent of schools, town treas
urer, postmaster, was in the House in
1901, is treasurer of the local Grange,
and is Free Mason. While MI. Skid
more is in no sense what might be
termed a horseman, he is a lover of a
good horse, and earlier in life used to
breed a few of the Jack Morrill, stock.
Jack Morrill, was horse that flourished
a good many years ago, and died in a
race on the old Readfield track.

THE SINGING OF THE CHOIR.

In memory of those who sang in the little church
at South Montvlle, Maine.
The minister read in solemn tone
The lines of some good old hymn;
The curtains were drawn in the gallery
high,
In our meeting housa hushed and dim.
The congregation arose as one,
DecOrOus and calm of mien;
No hurry or hustle, rush or haste
In those good old days were seen.
The leader gravely gave the pitch
With the tuning fork quaint and old;
And out above the eXpectant heads
The notes of each part together rolled
If the minister preached of heather afar,
In the darkness of their land,
The choir would sing in accents clear
Of 1ndia's coral strand"
When he preached Of Christian peace and
love,
The hearts of the choir thrilled as they
The sweet "Best be the tie that binds;"
How with brOtherly love the music rang
When over our dead the minister stood
With loving sympathy deep
Softly the words came from the choir,
"Asleep in Jesus. blessed sleep"
All! preaching was earnest in those old
days,
And the choir sang of what they knew
OF love, and redemption, and earnest faith
Till their songs rang strong and true.
l have only to close my eyes, and still
That deep toned bass, and alto clear,
The rich sweet notes of the treble seem
To watt as of old to my listening ear.
Long years ago that old church choir
Dropped "Asleep in Jesus" one by one;
And theirs was a blessed sleep, we know,
When their songs on earth were done.
Long years ago the minister, too,
Found that same rest Of which they sang
And over these as each reached home
Their notes of rejoicing rang.
The church still stands in the little dell,
The graveyard on the hill;
But hear the music of long ago
Watt out in its richness still.

A SUCKER BORN EVERY MINUTE.

During 1902 one hundred and fifty
different mining and oil companies
were advertising in the newspapers,
and promised dividends of never less
than "a per cent, and sometimes as
high as 100 per cent. Of these CON-
panies only one is paying dividends to-
day, and the directors of that are try
ing to steal it from the stockholders.
The men who swindled the people in
1902 by means of false advertising are
still in the same business; oil and min
ing companies are being advertised in
various newspapers and promises made
of great dividends. Why is not this
swindling stopped by the authorities?
Why do not legislators investigate
these thieving promoters, instead of
devoting their time to annoying useful
institutions?
The swindles perpetrated by the pro-
moterS are as undisguiSed and cruel as
those formerly perpetrated by Hungry
Joe, the king of confidence men. Who
schemes, loses dollar. At first, two
per cent. interest per month is paid.
This is paid with money sent in by new
suckers. Finally, when advertising
will bring no more victims, there is a
crash.
One of these swindlers is now insert
ing advertising in nearly every promi-
nent newspaper in America. Its ad-
vertising must cost nearly as much as
sales of stock bring in.
Everyone knows the company is a
colossal swindle, yet it claims to be a
Reform institution.
Much of the present unreasonable
hatred of useful corporations is due to
the agitators who are selling stock in
swindling companies.
In all seriousness, why are these
swindlers permitted to carry on their
operations without protest from the
authorit les? --Atchison Globe.

HOW LITTLE IT COSTS.

How little it costs, if we give it thought
To make happy some heart each day!
just one kind word or tender smile,
AS we go on cur daily way;
Perchance look will suffice to clear
The cloud from neighbor's face,
And the press Ola hand in sympathy
A s0rrOwful tear efface.
One walks in sunlight another goes
All weary in the shade;
One treads path that is fair and smooth,
Another must pray for aid.
1t costs so little l wonder Why's
We give it so little thought;
A smile-kind words a glance-a touch!
What magic with them is wrought.
