Many people are, no doubt, interested
in the subject of sleeping out of doors.
Many have probably utilized their porches
for that purpose during the summer
months who will move indoors with the ap-
proach of the first cool night. Like the
birds, they migrate to warmer chimes.
My advice is. stay out all winter It
will do you more good than you realize and
the hardships will be only those that will
really be benefit to the average person.

The Size Of Some Stars,

M. Nordmann of the Paris observa-
tory believes that he has devised
a successful method of determining
the diameters of stars by comparison
Of their effective temperatures with
their parallaxes. In the case of some
Of the brightest stars he has reached
interesting results. Thus he finds that
Aldebaran, the bright star in Taurus,
is veritably giant sun, the ratio Of its
diameter to that of our sun being
greater than that of the sun to the
planet Jupiter. This means that Aide
baran has diameter probably not less
than 100000 miles, or more than
thirty times the distance from the
earth to the moon. On the other hand,
Sirius, or the dog star, to our eyes the
brightest of all the stars, is, accord
ing to NJ Nordmann, b ut little larger
than our sun.

In her book woman and Labor
Olive Schreiner gives an amusing illus
tration of the fact that it is not the
amount of money a person has which
makes him or her a parasite on soci-

1.-THE wife Of an American million
aire," says Mrs. Schreiner, was visit
ed by a woman, the daughter and wild
ow Of a small professional man. She
stated that she was in need Of both
food and clothing. The millionaire's
wife gave her leg Of mutton and two
valuable dresses. The woman pro-
,ceeded to whine, though in vigorous
health, that she had no one to carry
them home for her. The American,
the descendant Of generations Of able,
labor1ng, New England Puritan WON

one arm and the bundle Of clothes un-
der the other and walked off down

dwelling, followed by the astonished

Professor Ian C. Hannah in his
book, Eastern Asia-A History says
that taxicabs, or, rather, automatic
registers attached to horse cabs, We're
invented about $50 A. D., during the
Tang dynastry in China. In his opin-
ion the Chinese empire is ''the great
est bluff in the world" and it sug-
gests to him very ancient Chinese
fable, which he relates
A monkey was captured by tiger.
He whined that he was thin and his
flesh of poor taste, but he knew of a
fine fat donkey for the tiger The tt
ger consented to be led to where the
donkey was tied. When the donkey
saw them coming he was frightened,
but recovered his composure and bawl-
ed in his masterful donkey voice:
Monkey, you used to bring me two
tigers. Why only one today?"
The tiger did a record hustle back to

0LD-T|ME REMEDY
DARKENS THE HAIR
Gives Color, Lustre to Faded and
Gray Hair-Dandruff Quickly
Removed.

From time immemorial, sage and
sulphur have been used for the hair
and scalp. Almost everyone knows
of the value of such combination
for darkening the hair, for curing
dandruff and falling hair, and for
making the hair grow. -
In olden times the only way to get
a hair tonic Of this sort was to brew
it in the home fireplace, method
! which was troublesome and not al
ways satisfactory. Nowadays almost
every up-to-date druggist can supply
his patrons with ready-to-use pro-
duct, skillfully compounded in per-
fectly equipped laboratories. The
Wyeth Chemical Company of New
York put up an ideal remedy of this
sort, called Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy, and authorize
druggists to sell it under guarantee
that the money will be refunded If it
fails to do exactly as represented. Z
If you have dandruff, or if your
hair is turning gray or coming out,

remedy today, and see what q few

Punctuation In Piano Playing.


A joke is going the rounds. Of the
press about the girl whose music teach
er wished 70 compliment her. but OF
whom he could only say that she play
ed the rests excellently. This is, how
ever, real praise of sort, for it is not
every young student of music who is
careful about playing the rests well.
Indeed, great many players seem to
forget that the rests are just as much
of the piece as is the punctuation in a
sentence. Nowadays people do not
put in so much punctuation as they
used to do. but the pauses in the voice
are there just the same and are readi
ly understood by good readers and al
ways regarded. The rests in music
are like the pauses in reading that are
needed to give expression to the sen
tences. If the player sights the rests
or extends them too long the whole ef-
feet of the musical sentence is spoiled.

AUSTIN DISCHARGED.
Not Sufficient Evidence to Hold Him
for Murder.

Not Sufficient Evidence to Hold Him
for Murder.
Charles Austin, formerly of Ellsworth,
who was arrested last week, charged with
the murder OF Nicholas Grimshaw at
LAkeview plantation, was discharged yes
terday after . hearing in the municipal
court at Milo.
Austin was represented by Martin l..
Durgin, Of Milo, and George B. Stuart,
of Ellsworth. The defence put in no
evidence, and the States evidence was
weak. Motion to discharge the prisoner
for want Of sufficient evidence was con-
CURED in BY the county attorney. An
nouncement of the prisoners discharge
was followed by applause from friends Of
Austin who crowded the court room.
Belief in Austin's innocence has been
general on the part Of his friends and
acquaintance from the first. A news-
paper correspondent at Milo, writing Of
the preliminary hearing last week, said:
Laying aside entirely the question Of the in
nocence or guilt OF the respondent, 1t 10 very
doubtful il ever In the history Of crime In
Maine has man arrested charged with MUIR
der gained the sympathy expressed for Aus
tin.
At the conclusion Of the hearing Tuesday
afternoon Austin, who was not handcuffed,
was allowed to talk with his friends in the
hall. Standing in the centre Of the hall he
was surrounded by a score Of his friends and
fellow-workmen In the mill at Lakeview, and
all seemed anxious to shake his hand and
ex press their belief in his innocence. The
incident resembled q reception rendered a
successful candidate for political honors
more than 1t did the second chapter Of a MUIR
der case.
When walking down the street on his re-
turn to the lookup, Milo friends of the ac-
cused man accosted him and shaking him by
the hand assured him of their entire belief
in his innocence Of the terrible crime
with which he stands charged. Austin
calmly smoking cigar, seemed little worried
over the situation in which he find himself
placed and seems confident OF proving his
innocence.
He was assured by his Lakeview friends
that they will stand by him, while the officials
Of the mill have stated to Judge Durgin, his
attorney. that they are entirely satisfied with
his innocence and that they are fully satisfied
that he did not in any way, participate in the
killing, II killing it was, of Grimshaw
Austin, according to all reports, bears an
excellent reputation both at Lakeview and
here in Milo, where he was formerly en-
ployed and where he is we'll known.
