Labor Day" was very quiet in town, many
of our citizens going by automobiles, buck
boards and carriages, to Penobscot Park to
listen to the address delivered by Congressman
Kelley of Michigan in his customary forceful,
pleasing and convincing style of oratory. The
tariff question was stated plainly and from an
apparently ipcontrovertible basis of monthly
statistical reports of the National receipts
from customs. The loss after the reductions
under the Underwood arrangement were as
tonishing to those not conversant with the
Treasury statements. and all before the burst
ing of this titanic war-bomb over Europe!
There seems little wonder that President
Wilson asks Congr ess to appropriate millions
to meet the deficit in the revenue. but that the
European war is responsible for the present
shortage, Republicans and consistent Demo-
Gratis cannot admit. 1t existed previous to
any threat of war in any country.

The outdoor life lived today by the

caveman type, declared Miss Rogers,
leads to clean morals and clear
brains. This combined with perfect
health and all the remarkable

their lives with the beasts, will make

MUSIC OF THE "PASSEL.TREEn
Remarkable Feat Credited to kIno
David by Hardshell Preacher Of a
Past Generation.

e. e. Kelly writes In the Toronto
Republican,: Old Daddy Jones was a
hardshell preacher back yonder when
was a little boy. He was one of
the old time kind who believed In
choosing as his text the first passage
OF Scripture that met his eye when
he opened the Book. He also believed
the Lord would put In his mouth the
necessary words Of exposition. And
one Sunday he opened the Book and
his eye was greeted with the third
verse Of the one hundred and fiftieth
terry Psalm: Praise him with the
sound Of the trumpet; praise him with
the psaltery and harp" Daddy Jones
amplif1ed and expounded at length
on the trumpet, went into its history,
use and capabilities as an instrument
of worship. Then he came to the
psaltery, which he pronounced pas.
sel-tree." And old daddy went on in
delightful intonation-provincia
known as "sing-songing"-"My breth.
rem and my sistern ah: do not know
just what kind Of q musical tree the
passeltree was ali. but no doubt King
David knew ah. No doubt he had
planted this passel-tree right beneath
his window, and in time It grew and
grew until a branch of it grew right
in at King David's window ah. And
there is no doubt In my mind ah that
as King David saw 1t he took up his
bow ali, and he drew his bow across
that passel-tree limb ah and dis
coursed the most sweetest music i'm
aginable ali! And. brethren and sis
tern, we should do likewise and praise
him not only with trumpet but also
with the passel-tree ah!"

Modern Fountain of Wine.

A fountain of wine is one of those
historical extravagances which are
generally associated with the name OF
Nero; yet as recently as Sunday, July
13, the public fountain of Wangen, in
the Alsace wine country, flowed with
wine. In the middle ages the COM
mune Of Wangen was sentenced to
make an annual payment to the
monastery of Strasburg of four hun.
dred measures Of wine. In%1793 the
payment was abolished by the direc-
tory. Under Louis XVIII. two mer-
chants secured the transfer of the
payment to them, by means Of forged
documents, for G650; but the com.
mune commenced proceedings against
them, In which 1t was victorious on
July IL, 1880. Since that date COM
munal festival has been held on that
day, and from the public fountain
erected to commemorate the victory
wine flowed for one hour in the day.

According to the register general
of Ireland the census of 1911 showed
that In that year there were S61, 1919 in
habited houses in the country, as
compared with 858,15S in 1901. The
average number Of persons a house
was five in 1911 as against So in 1901
and 81 in 1841. Tenements of less
than five rooms in 1911 comprised
about seventy per cent. Of the total
and rs per cent. of 1901. One-room
tenements in Ireland declined in num-
Der during the last decade from TO-
149 to 1884. Education statistics
showed that there was an increase in
both primary and secondary schools,
especially the latter; that there was a
marked decline In illiteracy, and that
there was a percentage of pupils at
tending school. The number Of per.
sons receiving poor-law relief fell
from 22.7 per 10000 Of the population
in 1901 to 17.6 in 1911.-Consul Hunt
