Related REVENGE.

"Once when was small lad on my
fathers farm In Ohio" said Judge
"a peddler got me to help him make
some repairs to his wagon. | did so
without any thought Of pay. but when
the vehicle was mended as he drove
of he told me the next time he came
by our house on his rounds he would
bring me gift in the shape OF copy
Of Robinson CrusOe,' book I had
long coveted. How l waited for him
to come again and how my heart fell
when he failed to bring me the vol
ume! Again and again he promised.
but never made good his word. Years
passed, and I grew to manhood. but
the memory Of that cruel disappoint-
ment never vanished from my mind.
I was made a school trustee of my
district. and one day man applied
for position as teacher. In him
recognized the peddler who had blast
ed my youthful hopes. There was an
other candidate for the job. and mine
was the deciding vote. Nothing in life
ever gave me more pleasure than in
voting against the ex-peddler, who for
his deception on boy lost good
place. 1t was perhaps carrying the
spirit of revenge too far. but there are
not many who would have done other
wise."-Baltimore American.

MARY GARDEN COUTURE.
Arrangement la That's the Very Lat

COZ vvSutASs
The latest effect in evening coiffures
is the arrangement la That's, that
affected by Mary Garden in her inter
probation Of this role. While it is eX-
tremely effective and artistic, 1t has an
advantage in that its arrangement
does not offer very grave difficulties
and that it can be accomplished even
where the growth of hair is not abun-
dant.
The hair is divided across the head,
waved very little. and then the
front hair is again divided by center
part. Both sides of the front hair are
then pulled out loosely and secured a
little beneath the crown of the head,
after which the previously waved back
hair is brushed up to met the front
hair and is also puffed out In pompa-
dour effect. This, however, must be as
irregular and soft in outline as posi-
BILE; otherwise the artistic effect pro-
duced by the finished couture will not

London Bakers In 1910.

In 1910 we find the following Bow
bakeresses accused of selling halfpen-
ny loaves deficient in weight: Sara
Foting. Christina Terrice. Godiyeva
Foting. Matilda de Bolingtone. Chris
tina Prichet. Isabella Sporting. Alice
Pegges, Johanna de Countebrigge and
Isabella Pouveste. One wonders why
the husbands were not summoned. In
similar case in 1916, when Agnes
Foting's bread was seized, it was lad
judged that her bread should be for
feited and given to the prisoners in
Neugate because her husband did not
come to avow (owm the bread" Are
we to assume that in the absence of
the husbands the bread was merely
forfeited without the infliction Of a
fine? An indication Of the Importance
of the breadmaking business is also
found in an enactment of the reign Of
Henry III. to the effect that every
cart Of Bremble BrombleybyBow) or
Stevenhethe (Stepney) that comes into
the city with bread shall pay each
day halfpenny."-St. James Gazette

A Tardy Act Of Justice.

Marriages between English actresses
and men Of high social position be-
gan in the eighteenth century. if no
earlier. There was Lavinia Fenton,
the Polly Peachum of Gays "Beggar's
OPERA" who became Duchess of Boil
ton; there was Miss Farren. who mar
ried Lord Derby; also Miss Brunton
became Lady Craven not long before
Lord Thurlow married Miss Bolton.
Earliest of the list, though. comes the
Earl of Peterborough, who married
Anastasia Robinson, the singer, ard
kept the marriage secret until few
days before his death in st. James
palace, when he assembled his relatives
and friends and publicly acknowledged
the woman ito whom he owed the
best and happiest hours of his life" a
tardy act of justice that caused the
lady to swoon away.

Stcnington LIQUORS

A hearing was held Friday before Judge
Spofford, of the Western Hancock munich
pal court, in the case of State vs.. intoxi-
eating liquors, about eighty packages con-
tanning about 1000 gallons in all. Decis-
ions were rendered ordering 500 gallons
confiscated, 100 gallons held on appeal
and 100 gallons ordered delivered to the
consignees.
This is the largest seizure ever known
in the county, and was made at the steam
boat wharf in Stonington Nov. II. In the
lot was whiskey, rum, gin, brandy, wine,
alcohol, beer, ale, porter, ETC., coming in
cases, barrels, casks and jugs. OF the
800 gallons ordered confiscated, the malt
liquors (several hundred gallons) will be
turned into the ocean from the wharf,
while the alcoholic liquors will be mixed
and sent away for rectifying the alcohol,
to be credited to the State.

Sherin-Elect Silsby's Deputies.
As the time approached for the -.
sumption OF the duties OF ONCE BY
GheriR- elect Forrest o. Silsby, inter
ct naturally increases in the appoint
mont Of deputy sheriAs.
Our democratic friends, during the
campaign, freely INDUCED in the pre-
6iction that In the event Of the cleo
zion Of = republican sherih the lid
which had been held down reasonably
close by . democratic aheei2 would
b lifted, and that the old order Of
things would prevail In Hancock
county.
That public sentiment in Hancock
county, regardless Of party, is over
Whelmingly in favor of strict enforce
ment cannot be questioned. A re-
publican sheriff was elected because
the republican party was satisfied that
It was not necessary to 60 out Of its
own ranks to find an enforcement
sheriff, and that Its candidate not
only could but would enforce tho law.
The party platform pledged enforce
nent; the republican candidate did
the same, and Mr.. Silsby was elected
on that issue.
II 1t is true, as some Of our demo-
cratic friends allege, that there ID an
element in the republican party in
Hancock county opposed to strict en-
forcement-which We do not admit
that element was not the controlling
factor in the election, and will utterly
fail if it attempts to influence the
sheriff ELECT to swerve from his own
and his party's pledges.
Naturally not all the candidates for
deputies can be appointed, and Mr..
9ilsby has no easy task ahead of him,
but that he will exercise good judg-
ment in his selections those who know
him best fully believe.
