woods. Our road, or path, which was
very rough, wound in and out among
the hills, and here and there we passed
high rocks or lodges decked with clumps
of spruce and pine. About 5 O'Clock
we caught sight of the bright waters OF
the lake and the Dead River sparkling
in the sunlight among the trees, and
pitched our tent in little sheltered
spot among the pines near the big dam
at Lower Pond and the banks of the
deep, still river. After making a rough
camp for the night we left our guides
to build fire aud get supper, and walk
ed down to the dam which paper pulp
company had built few years before,
and then to the banks of the historic
river, which rises here.
[ seemed to hear the splash of the
oars of Arnold's soldiers in the water
and the rough voice of Captain Daniel
Morgan above the storm giving orders
to his rillemen. Arnold sat beside bis
brave Captain wrapped in a great mill
tary coat, his face worn and weary, but
his piercing eyes cleaning like Goals OF
fire. Often he would shout to the SOL
diers to break ice with their gun-stocks;
for said he in a voice of thunder, we
must proceed to the Canadian frontier
and gather food for the starving army
and stragglers behind" The sun had
sunk behind the Kibly Mountains and
the shades of evening were stealing
through the forest when we sat around
the campfire and ate a hearty supper
which our guides had prepared for us.
The evening air was quite cool for the
last days of August and our faithful
guides kept up good fire until well in

little tired after our walk over the
rugged hills and we soon crawled under
our rude camp of limbs and boughS and
rolling ourselves in warm blankets laid
down on soft spruce boughs for the
night My friend was soon snoring
soundly, but in my case it was different
Sleep seemed to forsake me and | laid
for long time looking up through the
tall trees to the bright stars tWlnkling
in the clear sky and thinking of
Arnold'S starving army, picturlng IL
my mind at the same time the poor SOL
diers dropping down with fatigue, sick
ness and hunger as they staggered
along by the banks of the river SO near
our camp. | seemed to hear the groanS
of this starving army and some poor
dying soldier crying out that their last
dog had been killed and eaten and his
comrades feeble reply that he knew it.,
but to keep up good courage for Gener-
al Arnold would alleviate their distress
soon.
1t was about 10 O'Clock when our
guides came and laid down just inside
the camp with their trusty rifles by
their side 1t is impossible however,
for me to write a full description of our
nights in the deep woods. The glorious
sunset, the music of the waters of the
lake against the stones lear by as the
last breeze of evening died out, the
cry of the loon and the boot of the owl
are beyond the power Of my pen to de-
scribe Ali We deep wildwood, We rocks

solitudes, if you only had tongues to

BROOKS HORSE NOTES.

Isaac Staples of Brooks is one of the
old time carriage makers that used to
be found in every Maine village. He is
very nearly the sole representative of
this large and progressive class. At
the age of GO he is hale and hearty and
with his son E. +. Staples, is turning
out his usual complement of good ser
viceable carriages. Mr. Staples has in
his day built a good many hundred
carriages. He went to work at Is years
of age, and after one years apprentice
ship bought his time OF his father and
set up for himself, and has continued
ever since. No one has a better record
than he for good workmanship.
In all these years he has had an eye
open for good horse, and has handled
not few of them. OF date years the
horse end of the business has devolved
upon his son to quite an extent. just
now they have good road horse in lin
wilkes, a mahogany bay gelding eight
years old. He was sired by Blue Will
2G9a, out of dam by Young Gideon.
He stands 16 hsAds strong, and weighs
1laa pounds, is a fast walker, carries his
head high and is known as an attractive
locker.
M J. Dow, who represented this town
in the Legislature last winter, and is
favorably mentioned for the Senate of
1909 TO- is very busy man. He carries
on farm, runs store, and usually has
time to talk few politics. He is the
owner of roam mare by Knox Chief
that is certainly entitled to be known
as brood mare. She is the dam OF
Wilton S. 2.21. by Day Dawn, and one
other that took the same mark. Mr..
Dow has a yearling tilly out of the mare
by Marston C. 2l9f that he calls Maud
Marston, that he thinks very well of.
She has all marks of good one.-Turf

THE ILLS OF WINTER.
The Easiest Thing in the World to
Overcome Them If You Know How.

No season of the year has greater
variety or more acute ills than the
months from October to April.
The winter bruises and sprairs or,
the serious colds that lead to pneu-
monia, can all be readily cured by
Neuralgia Anodyne There is not
home in the Northern states that will
not get many times its value at this
season from the Anodyne.
rheumatism, neuralgia, headaches
n fact, aches and pains of every de-
scription are quickly and positively
cured by this valuable household rem
edy. Even the sore chilblains will
quickly disappear when Neuralgia Ano-
dyne is rubbed on.
If you use bottle of Anodyne and
do not think you have gotten more
than 25 cts. value from it, take back
the empty bottle to your dealer, and he
will refund the money to you,--and the
proprietors, The Twitchell Cham
Co., of Portland, Me-, will re-

The Common Things.

The sunshine and the gentle rain,
The clear bird song that halls the morn,
The mead0wland which flowers stain,
The swaying banners of the corn,
The grass that whispers to the breeze
What common, common things are these
The broad, blue mirror of the lake
That smiles back at the sleeping sky;
The pillows, too, that leap and break,
And fling their fOamy jewels high;
The silver clouds that one by one
Toss back the lances of the sun.
The stars that blaze as jewels blaze,
And make the World-old mystery,
While they on their appointed ways,
Go speeding through eternity,
Across unfathomed seas of space
On paths that we but dimly trace
All these are cOmmOn-broOk and bird,
And rose of red, and meadow green;
So common that they seem uDheard,
SO common that they seem unseen;
And yet there is no day or night
But bOrrOWs all of their delight
No common thing is held apart
From us, or pent with lock and key,
But in the goodness of His heart
They are all made for you and me.
Ii always seems God loves the best
Things he makes the commonest.
