For the first time this season lob
sters caught by Monhegan Island fish
ermen have been brought to Portland
as the smacks Addie & Hattie and
Robert & Edwin landed total of $500
Holsters from Monhegan here re-
The ice and rough weather
kept the smacks from arriving earlier
week. According to an agreement be-
tween lobster fishermen at Monhegan
none of the men engaged in the in
dustry are allowed to catch Holsters
from June 25, until Jan. Is. The agree
ment was made to protect the lob
sters and TO keep Monhegan Island on
the map as one Of the greatest islands
on the coast for lobster fishing.
Within three days over 49,
900 Holsters have been brought into
Portland by smacks, and unless UNI
usually severe weather arrives, the
price of Holsters there probably will
not advance. HOLSTERS have been sell
ing at retail in Portland for 35 cents
per pound, and the dealers have been
paying as high as % cents per pound
to the fishermen.
Local lobster fishermen are interest
ed in the proposed law to be introduc-
ed in massachusetts,. which provides
that the lobster fishermen must be Ii
censed and must observe CLOSED sea-
son."

The Pulley.

When God at first made man,
Having a glasse of blessings standing
by,
Let US (said he) poure on him all we
can:
Let the worlds riches. which dis
persed lie,
Contract into span.
So strength first made way;
Then beautie fiow'd, then wisdome,
honour, pleasure:
When almost all was out, God made
stay,
Perceiving that alone, of all his treas
ure,
Rest in the bottome lay.
For if I should (sald he)
Bestow this jewell also on my crea-
ture,
He would adore my gifts instead of
me,
And rest in Nature, not the God of
Nature:
So both should losers he.
Yet let him keep the rest,
But keep them with repining restless
nesse:
Let him be rich and wearie, that at
least,
If goodnesse leade him not. yet wear
inesse
May tosse him to my breast.

HOUSEHOLD
The Habit of Saving.

Most women dread house-clean ing !;
and it is little wonder, if one could
see into their attics and closets.
They have the Saving MANIA" and
have INDUCED it all their lives; and
many one, especially she who has
stayed in the old home, has not only
her own but the accumulations of
generations of women before her.
Their plea is ''being saving and
having things when they are want
ed. But see the piles of old papers
and magazines, and books that are
never looked at, but that might have
given so much happiness before they
were hopelessly out of date. The
broken furniture, never to be mend
ed, that would make some less forum
ate woman happy. The discarded
clothing and hats and shoes that are
hung away until attacked by moths
and mould. which might have done so
much good. The trunks and boxes of
half worn quilts and blankets. not
good enough to use and too good to
throw away. And besides all these
things that might have given so
much comfort. are quantities of ut
terly useless trash. ..,,-.
How can any sensible woman be so
same time, as to keep what benefits
her in no possible way, and yet
makes her SO much extra work every
year? Why not dispose of things to
the best possible advantage as they
become useless and save half the
work of the spring overbauling as
we'll as do a great deal of good?
But some people say, and it half
truth, 1T is always the well-to do
people who save; that is why they
prosper !" 1t is the prosperous wom-
an who puts away Sc many things
because she can afford to replace
them with something better. when
her less fortunate sister would use
them to shreds. Her good fortune
accounts for her so-called saving, not
the saving for her good fortune.
Why not try. for while, to
"save" comfort and suffering and he
time and labor required to care for
the contents of the attic?

A Fifty Cent Garden,

A garden very we'll worth having
may be had for fifty cents, or possibly
a little more. Try 1t and see. Every
good scotsman, in almost any place in
America, sells five cent packages of
seeds, or they can be ordered from
some reliable firm. Ten pack ages, as
follows, will make a garden of almost
continuous bloom:
Sweet Alyssum PhIox Drummondii
Cor border if desired)
Nasturtiums Stocks
MignUnette French Marigolds
Larkspur (Ajax) Coreopsis
Cornf1owers Hollyhocks
Sweet alyssum is lower in growth
than phloX but either will make a
good border. Dwarf nasturtiums are
best if the garden is not to be backed
by fence or porch in that case, use
the climbing nasturtiums and plant
hollyhocks in front of them. The
Iarkspur, coreopsis and marigolds
should taper down from the holly
hooks. and the cornfowers, stocks,
and pignonette should be next to the
border Of phlox or alyssum. 1t is
better to SOW half in the bed in the
beginning, the alyssum, nasturtiums,
hOllyhocks. mlgnOnette and larkspur.
The others are more satisfactory If
sown in the house in March or April
and transplanted the middle of May.
Or If there is room, special seed
bed can be made (the earth light and
fine). and seeds planted the last week
in April, to be transpiapted in June.
Plant none deeper than half an INN.
The smaller seeds should simply have
earth scattered over them. Begin
ners are apt to plant seeds too deep.
and they never come up. Sprinkle
seeds late every afternoon with
the watering pot. The transplanting
should be done after a rain, in late
afternoon.
Into tin box or tray, half filled
with water, the seedlings should be
carefully lifted. earth and ALL A
hole is punched in the moist earth, a
Seeding put in, the ground pressed
round it, another hole made, and so
on until fifty are in. Water them
thoroughly, and the next morning will
see them unwithered. For week
afterward they. should be sprinkled
every afternoon. The hollyhocks,
which may be placed in a row or
clump in the center of the bed, will
grow quite tall the first year and
make handsome show of leaves.
They will bloom the second year and
give profusion of seed. Larkspur
and nasturliums will also give plenty
of seed. This fifty cent garden is
meant for cutting freely, and the
various plants should bloom in success.
