SONG OF CONFIDENCE AND FAITH

Psalm 18th.
In the Lord do | put my trust,
For | know that He can save me-,
A poor, weak worm of the dust,
From danger both on land and sea
Be thou my strong habitation,
Where | may continually abide,
And in each and every tribulation,
Lord, keep me near thy side.
I'm glad | knew thee in my youth,
And learned of thy saving grace,
Thou hast led me in the way of truth,
So long to see thy shining face.
Tho my troubles have been many and
and sore,
And I've been perplexed often,
Still | remember what Christ bore,
Our rebellious hearts to soften.
My lips shall continually praise thee,
Thy wonderous works will I declare,
For thou only Lord hast saved me,
From sin and eternal despair.
When old age shall come upon me.
And my strength is growing less,
With child-like trust I'll lean upon
thee,
For thou alone my soul can bless.

Receipts for the week have been
Cattle, 1719; calves, 60; hogs, 1913;
sheep, 6531.
An enormous volume of business
has been transacted in the cattle mar
ket during the last five days, particu-
larly Monday and Tuesday. Receipts
totaled 1913 record for short per-
iod and as they followed an abnormal
liquidation the week before, beef out

ii prices had been firm. 1t was a
buyers market mostly, but good steers
did not sell under $685. The bulk of
steer transactions averaged 1915 to
$7.15. Butcher stock was weak only
in spots. Cows and heifers sold sharp
ly lower, but bulls and stays maintain
ed some degree of firmness. A small
lot OF heifers selling at 1915 featured.
BULK OF COW stuff brought $500 to
1925 with occasional sales in small
lots at $685. and $3.50.
Swine market suffered very little
from an advanced liquidation and
steady bear pressure. Best light hogs
were sold at $S.25 at $3.50 right up to
the close and demand was steady. The
weeks receipts have been above the
average, both in quantity and quality.
Smooth heavy stock brought good

GOT LOST IN TIE WOODS
An Adventure OF Skowhegan a Hum
dred Years Ago

At the time of this story or just pre-
vious thereto a ferry. the north land
ing of which was near the present
residence of E. d. Miller. was the only
means of crossing the river at Show
hogan Falls. The portion of the
town south of the present location of
Pleasant and High ST. was forest and
people coming from down river used TO
cross the ferry, proceeding up road
long since abandoned, by the Written
Brook Valley, to junction with what
is now Madison Avenue, near the pre-
sent corner of Leayitt St. John G.
had come to the Kennebec Valley to
teach school On being out cunning
when a young man he got lost in the
woods on the bank of the river below
the falls. After trying for some time
to get out of the thicket, he climbed
tree to get the proper direction.
From the top of this tree he could see
Skowhegan Falls and make out which
way to go to get home
Something of the condition of our
present business section at that time
may be realized from the fact that that
tree was located near the present site
of the Skowhegan Trust Company
Another incident of that date, posi-
bly, little later than the above, is
related of one Reuben kincaid set
tier of Madison. Mr.. Kincaid was
blacksmith and is said to have made
the bolts for the first bridge built
across the north channel. In boy
hood excursion in the forest he trav-
lied over the ridge of land now known
as Coburn Woods He brought back
with him at night little elm one and
ene-half or two feet tall and set it
on the edge of the highway. This
elm is now the large tree which stands
in front of the Bearce blacksmith shop
on Madison Avenue.

The Sow Thistle

Judging from observation and from
reports received by the Maine Agri-
cultural Experiment Station. the per-
ennial SOW thistle is becoming quite
common in some parts of the State,
particularly along the northern bor-
der. 1t is known by various other
local names. such as creeping SOW
thistle, corn SOW thistle and some
times incorrectly as the Russian this
tie This latter is an entirely diff
erent plant belonging TO the Spinach
family. AS its name implies it is
perennial, very deep rooted, with
large and vigorous running root
stocks. 1t is a very different and a
much more attractive looking plant
than the ordinary field thstles. The
rootstoCks run along under ground,
throwing up stalks at intervals. These
stalks are simple with few leaves and
branching at the top. They eXude a
bitter, milky juice when broken. The
top is crowned by several large.
bright-yellow. attractive flower heads,
often an inch and half in diameter.
The seeds are brown, oblong, about
one-eighth inch long, and transverse
ly wrinkled as well as longitudinally
ribbed At the end of each seed is
a tuft of many very white fluffy hairs
which when dry spread out like a
parachute and thus assist in carrying
the seeds long distances on the wind.
The leaves are edged with soft spines,
clasping at the base, long and pointed
and quite deeply cut. There are two
other species of SOW thistles, which
like the one in question are introduce
ed weeds and which may be OCCASION
ally found. These, however, are an
nuals, are smaller and have much
smaller, pale yellow flowers These
annual SOW thistles are by no means
such dangerous weeds. The peren-
NAL SOW thistle has been introduced
from Europe into Canada where it
is a very serious pest in the grain
fields of some parts of the Northwest.
From Canada it is migrating south

ever it establishes itself it causes

of crops and on account of the great

as one of the ancient landmarks. On
the top, set in the burying ground
the forefathers planted the Liberty
Pole and from this tloated the stars
and stripes over one hundred years
ago. When the news came of Lees
surrender, it was this emblem floating
over the hill that told the glad news
to the surrounding country. For
many years the Flagstaff being broken
off by high winds, there was no flag
on the hilltop Then the Daughters
took up the work and had a flagpole
placed in 1911 in the original founda

It's a safe ten to one bet that the
young man who uses Partisan Sage as
an occasional hair dressing will never
grow bald.
There's a reason, of course, and It's
a very good and sufficient one.
Dandruff germs cause falling hair and
falling hair means thinner hair and in
due time badness.
Partisan Sage prevents badness, by
destroying the cause OF baldness-the
little persistent vociferous dandrun
germ. r-s.,

Il means that dandruff germs are sap

hair. Get rid of all hair troubles by
using Partisan Sage. 1t does not con-
tain poisonous sugar OF lead or any
harmful ingredients. 1t Is scientific
preparation that abolishes dandrun,
stops falling hair and scalp itch, and
makes hair grow lustrous and luxurf-
ant.
Many young women as well as men
are growing bald and from the same
cause.-the dandruff germ.
