Mr.. and Mrs. Stephen Bartlett Observe the
5Oth Anniversary of their Marriage.
Mr.. and Mrs. Stephen Bartlett of
North Union celebrated on Saturday
evening, Oct. 14th, the 5Oth anniversary
of their wedding. The occasion was a
most enjoyable and memorable one for
those who were guests. The home was
prettily decorated. One interesting fea-
ture of the event was the presence of
the W. C. T. U. in a body. The house was
filled with guests. A bountlful supper,
consisting of wild duck, cake. pies, fruits
and everything good was served, after
which the W. C. T. U. held short bust
ness session. The program was called
and Mr.. and Mrs. Bartlett were escorted
into the parlor, amid the applause of all
and seated in the center of the room.
Mrs. Carrie Ripley, president of the
w. c. I. u, came forward with the
following remarks: ''Sister and Brothe
Bartlett, we have assembled here this
evening to celebrate the 50th anniversary
of your wedding. 1t is seldom one is
privileged to add tribute of congratu-
lation to so years of welded life. With
such an opportunity we thought it proper
and fitting to remember you with some
little token, and in behalf of the w. C.
7. U. of North Union l present you
with this oak rocker, hereby showing
the love and esteem which we have for
you, both as friends and also as men,
bers of our union Our Heavenly Father,
in His infinite goodness and tender

pathway of life together, sharing it's
and this evening, in bringing to you this
token, we bring with it our love and sin
cere wishes for a bright and happy fu-
ture and that Heavens richest blessings
may be bestowed upon you, and we wish
you many happy returns of this day."
Mr.. and Mrs. Bartlett responded with
feelings of gratitude to the union. Seldom
Bartlett of Portland spoke with heartfelt
happiness to thank the union and friends
who held his parents in so high esteem,
saying he owed his success in life to the
strict Christian bringing up he received
from his beloved father and mother,
whom he loved and cherished.
Mrs. Blanche Johnston sang an appro-
pirate solo entitled, Fifty. Years Ago.
Mrs. Seldom Bartlett read a poem COM
posed by Mrs. Henderson Moody for the
occasion, which was enjoyed by all. In
teresting remarks We're listened to by
different ones, including Mrs. Macomber
of Augusta, Mr.. and Mrs. Seldom Bart
lett. Mrs. Blanche Johnston and others,
after which several pretty and costly
gold presents were opened and presented
to Mr.. and Mrs. Bartlett from relatives
and friends.
MIR. Whitney, one of the guests from
Portland, captured rs wild ducks the pre-
ceding day, part of which were served
and relished by all at the bountiful sup
per. Miss Delaney of Portland and Mr..
Macomber of Augusta were also present.
All joined heartily in closing song,
with parting wish that Mr.. and Mrs.
Bartlett be spared to celebrate their

ONE CENT
Placed at Five Per Cent. Compound
Interest. A. d.. Amazing Statistics.

Placed at Five Per Cent. Compound
Interest, A. D. 1. Amazing Statistics.
Wagner and Sufan, the German statis-
ticians, estimated in the year 1891 the
population of the world at 1,48O million
persons. More than one-half of this es-
timated number was based upon the
results of actual censuses, and the
remainder was carefully es timated. We
shall probably not be far awsY from the
truth if we say that there are now Tin A.
D. 1917 1900 million persons on the
Earth.
If in Ammo Domini man had then
desired to be hailed in a later century
Universal Benefactor OF the World, he
could have achieved his desire by then
investing the equivalent of modern
American Cent at 5 per centum com
pound interest per annum, the interest
to accumulate year by year for the ben
efit OF future generations.
At the end of the first century of in
Internationally, in A. D. lOO--the
original Cent would have grown to dol
lar 81 cents. At the end of 1910 years
after Ammo Domini namely, at the end
of the year 1910 Qast year)-the original
Cent would have grown to the stipend
GUS value of 296, 100, 600, 600, 600, 600, 600, :
OOO, 600, 600, 900, 600, 600 dollars ($29, 618
followed by "a 0's).
This accumulation resulting in A. d.
1910 from the original investment of One
Cent in Ammo Domini is SO vast that no
brain can realize what is the meaning of
the enormous quantity of dollars just
stated. We are wholly unable to realize
the stupendous golden growth of this
original Cent unless we press into our
service various aids to imaginative con-
ception, such as those / have dreamed
and here illustrated.
Imagine the earth transformed into a
huge flat slab one mile thick, floating in
space. Let every man, woman and
child now living in the world-approxi-
mately 1900 million persons-co ntinu-
ously discharge quick-fring gun loaded
with American Gold Eagles in place of
bullets for one thousand years. Each
gun fires into space one thousand Gold
Eagles per minute, which drop over the
edges of the Earth.
The result is that at the end of one
thousand years. continuous discharge of
Gold Eagles from 1900 millions Of quick
firing guns at the rate of one thousand
Gold Eagles per minute from each gun,
only an infinitesimal fraction of the
money would have thus been got rid Of.
The amount to be thus drawn upon be-
ing the $685. followed by thirty -four
0's, this amount being the accumulated
result of One Cent invested in Ammo
Domini at per centum compound in
terest until the end of the year 1910.
All this firing away of Gold Eagles
would have to continue for more than
81, 600, 600, 900, OOO,0O years. in place of
for merely one thousand years, in order
to exhaust the money accumulated in
A. D. 1910.

BANGOR'S GRAND BANKER.
The Lizzie Griffin Sails Thursday for Her
Winter Trip.
Bangor CONNIE rcial. I

Bangor Commercial
Bangor's only Grand Banker. the u
ton schooner Lizzie Griffin, will drot
down river to Bucksport Thursday,
where she will take on ballast and day
or two later, start on her perious winter
trip to the west coast OF Newfoundland
after herring. If fish are plentiful and
he has good luck, Skipper w. A. Ander-
son hopes to be back in time to eat his
Christmas dinner at his home in Orland,
But it doesn't make so much difference
to him this year, he says, because his
wife died last summer while he and the
Lizzie Griffin were way up on the Grand
Banks after cod fish. There is no one
waiting for him now.
Capt Anderson left Bangor on April
Il for his summer cruise. 1t was Sept,
20, almost exactly five months to day,
when he came back into the harbor with
1875, 0O0 pounds of salt cod in his hold,
Skipper Anderson took crew of 10 men
with him and they fshed in Is dories. 1t
wasn't the best season which the banks
have known and he was rather late in
getting back. But, even at that, he did
better than the four Bucksport schoon-
ers, who were also on the fishing grounds.
They haven't tied up at Cap'n Tom Mich
olson S wharves opposite Fort Knox yet,
although they are expected before long.
They have beell heard from and thew are
all safe.
The Lizzie Griffin will carry but eight
men this winter and only one of them,
besides Capt. Anderson, is an American.
The rest are Portuguese or men from
the maritime provinces. She will 90 to
the Bay of Islands, where she will hire
men to net herring for her and it all de-
ponds on how plentiful the fish are when
she gets back here again. Some years
it is well into January before she shows
up. There is room for 1900 barrels of
salted herring in her hold and 240 hogs
heads of salt have already been dumped
there with which to cure them. Besides
this, she will bring back 80 barrels OF
picked fish on her decks. They will all
go to Alfred Jones Sons, the Bangor
wholesale fish dealers, who own the
schooner.
81 dread this winter trip more than
any other, Capt. Anderson said Wednes-
day. "There is no knowing what we
may encounter in the way of gales and
North Atlantic winter weather isn't Just
the sort for pleasure cruise. Then
there's the lce-no man can tell when his
schooner may be caught in it or what
will happen to him if she is"
Capt. Anderson has been going to sea
since he was a boy of II, for the last
nine years in the Lizzie Griffin. Al
though he has never been nipped in the
ice in her, he has had several trying ex-
periences in other vessels. On one occa-
sion he was held up for three days before
the wind shifted and he was able to force
passage through the foes to the open
water. Several times he has been lost
in the fog while fishing in dory. But
always, SO far, he has come out safely.
''But there is last time to every
thing, he said Wednesday, with laugh.

THE HUSKER'S SONG.
by John Greenleaf Whittier.


John Greenleaf Whittier, American
poet, reformer and author, and member
OF the Society of Friends, was born at
Haverhill, Mass, Dec. II, 1907, and died
at Hampton Falls, N. H., Sept, Z, 1892.
He attended the Haverhill Academy,
worked on farm, taught school, and at
the age OF q edited the American Manu-
facturer, at Boston. He edited the
Haverhlll Gazette in 1880, and later the
New England Weekly Review, at Hart
ford AS an opponent of slavery he went
to Philadelphia, where he edited the
Pennsylvania Freeman. He was sent to
the Massachusetts Legislature from 1885
to 1886. In 1910 he settled at Amesbury,
Mass, where the last years of his life
were spent.
Heap high the farmers wintry hoard!
Heap high the golden corn!
No richer gift has Autumn poured
From out her lavish horn.
Let other lands, exuting, CLEAN
The apple from the pine,
The orange from its glossy green,
The cluster from the vine
We better love the hardy gift
Our rugged wales bestow,
To cheer us when the storm shall drift
Our harvest fields with snow.
Through wales of grass and meads of flowers,
Our ploughs their burrows made,
While on the hills the sun and showers
OF changeful April played.
We dropped the seed Ger hill and plain,
Beneath the sun of May,
And frightened, from our sprouting grain,
The robber-crows away.
All through the long, bright days of June,
It's leaves grew green and fair,
And waved III hot midsummer's noon
Its soft and yellow hair.
And now, with Autumn's moonlit ewes,
Its harvest-time has come;
We pluck away the frosted leaves,
And bear the treasure home.
There, richer than the tabled gift,
Apollo showered of old,
Fair hands the broken grain shall sift.
And knead its meal of gold.
Let vapid idlers loll in silk
Around their costly board;
Give us the bowl of samp and milk,
By homespun beauty poured!
Where'er the wide old kitchen hearth
Sends up its smoky curls
Who will not thank the kindly earth,
And bless our farmer girls?
Then shame on all the proud and vain,
Whose folly laughs to scorn
The blessings of our hardy grain,
Our wealth of golden corn.
Let earth withhold her goodly root,
Let mildew blight the rye,
Give to the worm the orchards fruit,
The wheat-feld to the fly.
But let the good old crop adorn
The hills our fathers trod;
Still let US, for his golden corn,
Send up our thanks to God!,,
