A South Paris man took woodsaw
into a local filing shop the other day,
and remarked, II took this saw out OF
the frame and brought it in here to be
filed, but the thing doesn't cut worth
cent, so [ thought I'd bring it frame
and all this time and see if you would
have any better luck with it," The filer
took il up and looked at it and remark
ed, You blithering idiot, how can you
expect saw to cut if you hang it wrong
end TOP"
South Paris has bid on the champion
absent minded man. This candidate,
who is a business man, fell in with a
friend who was on his way TO the barber
shop the other night, and went along
with him, and when his turn came, got
into the chair. The barber had nearly
finished spreading the lather, when the
shavee suddenly exclaimed, Didn't
get shaved in this shop to-day noon?'
And the barber assured him that he did,
and proceedings were suspended.
Miss Mary II. Taylor was here short

sas City in company with Miss Taylor.

Mrs. Elizabeth Edgerley is interested
with her brother, s. Augustus Lord OF
Auburn, in the purchase OF the island in
Island Pond, on which summer camp
is to be erected this season. Island Pond
il situated on the line between Waterford
and Harrison, about ten miles from
South Paris, and a short distance from
the old home of Mr.. Lord and Mrs.
Edgerley in Waterford. The island
purchased is only short distance from
the shore, and contains something like
three acres, well supplied with trees
and springs of water. The lumber is al
ready landed on the island for the camp,
which will be built in bungalow style,
with large general room, kitchen and
verandas on the ground floor, and four
chambers above.
1t is considered worthy of note that
lnmberman has recently presented the
state forestry museum with souvenir
in the form of a horseshoe embedded II
piece of small beech tree. Now II
any one is looking for curious things oi
that sort, the writer of this paragraph
can show him little spot on the bark oi
a tree beneath which, il he will dig into
the wood, he will find the tip end of g
hammock hook, several inches in length
once in use but now entirely encased IL
the wood and out of sight. 1t is no
likely that that hammock hook will eve
see the inside of a museum, but 1t maI
nevertheless play part in the moral his
tory of the world. As il is shade tre'
in which it is buried, probably no one
this generation will ever see it, bu
very likely some time, in the course
natural events, when the tree complete
its term of years, some one will discove
