finer than mans thought of man. The dynamic power of sentiment consti- tutes one of the wonders of the world. Everything that has ever been worth doing has been done by faith and the dreamer.
 The Pilgrim fathers who crossed the seas in 1920 were dreamers. for they saw the vision of a new government in a strange land and they had the faith to follow the vision. It took them across troublous waters into the wild serness of new world: but there was glorious fulfllment to the dream.
 Patrick Henry. in the little church at Richmond, spoke as a dreamer speaks and those who heard him saw a wondrous vision. The men who crowded around the little table ln In dependence Hall at Philadelphia, in 1776, to sign the Declaration of Inde- pendence, were dreamers. every one. Our government was a dream born in the brain of those who loved liberty; and when the nations life was in dan ger, when Washington trod the blood stained snows of Valley Forge, keeping hope alive in the hearts of the pat riots, the commercial tories and prac- tical men of the day were denouncing the government, giving aid and com fort to the enemy and laughing, with the nobility of the old world, over the folly and inexDerience of the men of the new. And yet the dream came to pass! Men live and suffer and even mans divinity. History tells us that to Socrates they gave the hemlock: Graccus they killed with sticks and stones: the Maid of Orleans they burn ed at the stake: Robert Emmet they killed under color of law; Lincoln they assassinated and One. greatest and purest of all, they crucified! Would it not be a shame if the men of our gen. eration should faint or fail beneath the lighter burdens of to-day? Let us. too, have a heart for a cause, whether it be a public duty or a. private service. Let us gather inspiration from the that William Ernest Henley. from his cripp1e's chair, had the cour- age to send forth to wavering hearts

Literary News and Notes.

The fiction in the September Strand is
particularly attractive. Hall Game pre-
sents a powerful instalment of his great
story, THE White Christ" Conan Doyle
contributes splendid short story entitled
''The Lord of Falconbridge. Harding s
Luck" is one of E. Nesbit's charming
stories written ostensibly for children
but especially enjoyed by grown-ups.
Peters Pence is a delightfully."- hui
morous story by w. W. Jacobs. There
are other splendid short stories by we'll
known authors. The number concludes,
as usual, with "Curiosities, contribu-
tons principally of freak or unusual
photographs taken in all parts of the
world.
Lincoln Colcord, the brilliant young
author, formerly of Searsport, his native
place, and a graduate from the Univer-
sity of Maine, now a resident of New
York spent few days in Searsport the
past week. He accompanied his mother,
Mrs. l.. A. Colcord, as far as New York
on her way to join her husband, Capt.
Colcord OF. the Hawaiian S. S. Co., in San
Francisco. Mr.. Colcord has rapidly risen
in the public eye during the past few
years and his stories are eagerly read by
his many friends in his native town. Born
at sea- the son of master mariner, and
having spent much of his boyhood in the
Orient, Mr.. Colcord's stories SAVIOR of
the sea and the East and many of them
are founded on facts CLEANED from old sea
captains he has met. They are particu-
larly interesting to all lovers of the sea-
One of the most important of the
special features Of the New Idea Wom-
ans Magazine for September is |'Wom-
ans Part in the Seattle Exposition" by
F. G. Moorhead. Other articles out of
the ordinary are: What Women Have
Brought to Business, by E. w. Gearing;
''Why we should Have School Cities, ="
by Helen NJ. Hill; and Housekeeping
Wholesale" by Katherine Glover There
are two clever essays-one on "Some
Exploded Theories by Katherine L.
Morrison and the other, 'The Chance to
be Cultured,' by Louise NJ Mitchell.
The three short stories, ''The Janitor' S
Resignation" by Ada Patterson, 1.-The
Mystery of Roselands," by John Car
michael, and THE Disciplinarians, by
Temple Bailey, are unusual in their dis
tinctive cleverness. Grace Eleanore
Towndrow s serial, The Heir Appar-
ent, - makes even a stronger appeal than
in previous issues. In the fashion pages
of the magazine the autumn bride and
the middle-aged woman receive especial

GROWTH OF TRANSATLANTIC LINERS

Their Principal Dimensions and Speed.

brief description of same was printed in
the Scientific American of June 10, 1909,
with illustrations from which We deduce
the following: The Cunard liner Britain
MIA, built in 1910, was 215 feet length on
deck, "a feet inches beam, and "a feet
and inches deep ;displacementl, 731 tons;
speed g. knots. In 1858 the Great East

3337 feet long, 40.55 beam, 3,S0o dlsplace-
ment, with speed of 1879 knots. lnlSS9
the City of Paris, now in commission in
the American Line as the Philadelphia,

Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse came out.
She is $40 feet long, sc feet beam, 43 feet

pearance, her dimensions being 700 feet

In 1903 the Kaiser Wilhelm went into

publication. Unjust be remembered that
grave questions of national Importance
filed public attention questions involv-
ing the integrity of the Union itself, both
by reason of danger from abroad and of
internal dissensions.
The conscience of the country was more
and more being quickened to the moral
obliquity of slavery as feature Of the
political institutions of the country
Hence the numerous selections, full of
inspiration and hope, from Washington,
Webster, Choate, Sumner, John Quincy
Adams, Writ, Fisher Ames, and others
who were and had been in public life.
On the moral side were Beecher, Chann-
ing, Horace Mann, William H. Seward,
and men of that type, whose burning ut
terances aroused resentment against the
further domination of slavery in the,coun-
try. Over all these, We're loud calls to
universal justice and freedom by men
like Chatham, Burke and Fox abroad.
The finest in English literature was
represented in part by selections from
Addison, Steele, De Foe, johnson,
Goldsmith, Scott, Irving, Cooper, Ma
caulay and Dickens. There was also a
strain of profound religious faith rum
ming through many articles in these read
ers, while others instilled simple moral
lessons, wherein virtue met its reward
and vice its punishment. Industry, tenn
perance and obedience to parental au-
thority formed the theme Of many selec-
tons.
Who can say, 'sswhen.sst final stress
came upon this country, and we faced
the alternative of dissolution of this
Union or war, that the boys who sat I'M
der this instruction did not thereby re-
ceive inspiration which carried them from
every school-district in the North to the
perils of battle for the destruction of
slavery and the maintenance Of the
Union?

A Small Boy.

Probably the smallest boy in the city
of Augusta, and perhaps in Kennebec
county, is Master Joseph Phillip Blanch-
ard, the infant son of Mr.. and Mrs. John
Blanchard, Jr., of Northern avenue. The
young man is but few days old, having
been bort last Monday, and is one Of
twins, but while his little sister who ac-
companied him on his advent into the
world weighs six pounds, the best that
he could do at birth was to tip the scales
at an ever pound. The attending physi-
clan says that Joseph is the smallest baby
he ever saw born alive An idea Of the
young mans diminutive size may be had
from the fact that an ordinary finger
ring has been slipped on over one of his
hands and to the shoulder and over one
of his feet and to his groin. -Kennebec
