The simple furnishing necessary for
the austere life, the dimly lighted corr
ridors and the altars rich with the
work and embellished with the cost

the grateful sons for twenty score
years, leave an impression on the hur-

faced.
The religious houses Of Manila are
more attractive than those Of Europe
though the latter can claim as great
age. Somehow it seems that the age
brought by the same number Of years
inila must be greater. Then there
is the undercurrent Of consciousness

United States that there is but a be-

A CITY OF CHURCHES

On nothing does Manila appeal moro

than in it's churches. writes Infeliz Al

These are numerous enough to JUS
tify for the metropolis of the southern

There is to be seen the Augustinian

a hundred years before permanent set

the Virginia or New England coast.
There too are dozen brand new chap

No place is. more acceptable for the
holding of fairs and fetes for which the

such passionate liking, than IS the
shadow Of one of these old churches.
In their interior more than in their
exterior the older churches brins, to
the traveller a sense Of age and the ap-

JAPANESE TOMBOLA.

Hancock Hall Transformed into a
Bit of the Flowery Kingdom.
The Japanese tombola" at Hancock
hall last Wednesday and Thursday after
moons and evenings was one of the pref
tiest affairs in the line OF fair given in
Ellsworth for some time. The hall, with
its floral decorations and strings of Ian
terms, looked like a veritable bit OF old
Japan, and the Japanese costumes Of the
ded to tAe illusion.
In tsie centre of the hall was the Japan
ese tea garden, bower OF westaria,
where Mesdames II. E. Rice, g. f. New
man, jr., Charles X. Burrill and r. j. Good
win poured tea made of the genuine
article direct from Japan. The decorations
Of the tea garden, planned and executed
by Mrs. F. T. Grows, who was in charge
of this booth, were an artistic piece Of
work.
The other booths were also most attrac-
tive, the ladies in charge showing rare
taste. The ice-cream booth was in charge
OF Mrs. stockbridge, Misses May Bonsey
and Ruth Goodwin; the mystery tree,
Misses Agnes A. Lord and Mary E.
Holmes; the candy booth, Misses Ray N.
Whiting and Leonice H. Foster; the
chafing- dish booth, Misses Margaret L.
Moore and Emma Fits. There was also
booth for the sale OF Japanese articles,
where Mrs. H. E. Davis and Miss Julia r.
Cushman presided.
Little Rachel Haynes, in the unbonnet
series" Of poster pictures, won the hearts
OF all. Wednesday evening there was q
representation of a wedding in Japanese
high life, as costume pantomime. The
parts were taken as follows: The bride,
Helen Shute; the bridegroom, Harold
Gould; the go-between, Mrs. H. W.
Haynes; the bridegroom's mother, Mrs. j.

society, was given Monday afternoon by
Miss N. A. Greely, on 1.-THE Work Of the
American Civic Association in its Relation
to Village improvement Societieso. The
talk was interesting, and proved an in
spiration to the ladies OF the Ellswort
village Improvement society to reorganize
for work. The matter was talked over
informally at the close Of Miss Greely's
talk, and meeting has been called to be
held next Monday afternoon, at 8 O'Clock,
at the home Of Mrs. Henry NJ. Hall. All
ladies interested in this work are cordially
invited to Be present.
The boys and girls Of the Junior League
Of the Methodist church wepe pleasantly
entertained at the parsonage last Saturday
afternoon by Miss Elizabeth springham,
assisted by Mrs. Hendee and Miss Eva
Mayo. Games were played, and Wash
ington contest was entered into in which
Wesley Sowle was the winner Of the prize.
As souvenir Of the occasion, each one
was presented with Washington hatchet
and an American flag. Refreshments were
served, and the boys and girls left for
their homes after having spent delight
full afternoon. The JUNIOR League, though
only recently organized, has fifty members
now enrolled. Great interest and enthu-
siasm are shown in the society, as it is the
only Junior League in the city.
A simple yet decidedly clevlr fastener
for wooden box covers has just been in
vented by Gilman P. Smith, Of Bangor,
formerly OF Ellsworth. Mr.. Smiths
patent, which he calls the Acme box
cover fastener, is made Of tough hoop
iron. aud is so placed on the box and cover
that one attachment acts as hinge while
the other serves as fastener, both bind
ing and strengthening the box. 1t is an
easy matter for anyone to put on the
entire equipment inside of five minutes.
With this Acme fastener, no mailing of
covers is necessary, and boxes can be used
over and over again. Although Mr.. Smith
had the improvement OF blueberry boxes
chiefly in mind when he worked out this
device, yet it is equally good for use on
egg cases, berry crates, or any other
wooden containers which can be used
more than once. The fasteners are very
inexpensive.
