Worry Has a Value,

There must be way of taking worry rightly, so that it shall do us good and not harm. Worry, rightly taken, should train to quietness, hu- mility, patience, gentleness, sympa- thy. It ought not to eventuate (though it naturally does) in making others suffer because we are uncomfortable, in making us source of painful worry to others because we are worried our selves.-A. H. K. Boyd.

The more graceful and ornamental it was, the more clearly do we discern the hopelessness of restoring it to it's for mer state. Coarse stones, if they be fractured, may be cemented again; precious stones, never.-Landor.

MAN TAKEN FROM RIVER
SATURDAY EVENING

Saturday evening at about 7.30
o'clock as Alec McCoombs was cross
ing the Bridge street bridge, his at
tention was drawn to a splashing In
the stream just below the store Of Hi
ram Littlefield. In company with an
other man he investigated and found
the splashing was caused by man
in the stream. After considerable en-
gineering, as the shore is anything
but pleasant place to explore on a
rainy night in the dusk, the man was
safely brought ashore. 1t proved to
be man by the name of Govang and
he was without coat, vest or hat. He
gave no coherent accou,i. of the why's
and wherefores of the case, his chief
anxiety appearing to be to get home,
where he was piloted by two of the
large number who had been drawn to
the scene of the occurrence. It is sup
posed that he became confused and
lost his bearings.

situation of this road is such that 1t
would be considerable of an expense
to keep it watered as it should be, in
fact II Is entirely impracticable. AS
consequence an asphalt macadam will
be used this time. The surface of the
roadway is to be thoroughly cleansed,
dug up with a scarifier and treated
with Tarvia, a road building material
that is much in vogue in New York
state. Some 5000 gallons of this mate
rial will be used together with 80 car
loads of rock which comes from North
Jay. The rock will be unloaded at the
upper siding Of the Ccpsecook mill,
thus saving long haul. The State
Highway Commission is to send man
to superintend the work, which will
not be done by contract Local help
will be employed.

when I left ST. Moritz," said Mr..
Thomas, "the Swiss people seemed to
have gone up III the air. There had
been call for 100000 troops, and that
took every able-bodied man between
the ages of twenty and thirty-six.
Every Swiss horse was commandered.
Most of the Americans there decided
to wait and see what was going to
happen, but Mr.. Rhodes and l decided
to get out. We knew that the train
service would be paralyzed, and we
therefore decided to get out through
Italy. AS st. MoritZ is near the Italian
border there were many Italians there.
One was a iveryman and his horses
had not been taken. He drove US
across the border into Italy. and we
paid him with a check on New York.
AS the banks in ST. Moritz do nothing
but an exchange business, they are
absolutely paralyzed at a time when
everybody wants money"
The record cash expenditure for a
family of six during a period of nine
days is claimed by DIR. Butler of CO.

tors who chartered the Principe oil

During the nine days previous to
the sailing of the ship" said DR.. But
Ter, Il paid out for myself and the five
others who were with me exactly one
Ira and 40 centessimi in cash. That
amounts to about % cents in our
money. 1t was all the cash l had and
couldn't get any more. One day in
Genoa | spent a little less than two
cents OF this amount for a trolley ride
The Ira went for a cab another day in
Genoa. Luckily the hotel men in Italy
have been exceedingly considerable to
Americans. They have not only given
food and lodging, but have paid all the
incidental things, even tips and have
accepted personal checks on New York
banks when the people left. The way
prices rose after war was declared Is
perfectly unbelievable. The coal on
this steamship cost 92 francs ton, al
though the usual price is just under
twenty.
Il had an invitation to visit the Kali
ser at Wilhelmshohe on the 18th and
10th of this month. but the declaration
of war naturally changed his plans as

was fortunate in having a friend in
Florence who was able to give him
gold for a check.
When the war broke out" said Mr.
Smith, Il was in Venice with my wife
and daughter. l had exactly fifty lire.
That is good deal more than many
Americans had. but 1 thought it just
as well to have a little more on hand.
The banks had suspended payment
without any notice at all. On the 31st
of July you could have gone into any
one of them and drawn out any
amount in gold to the extent of your
credit. When the banks opened up
the next morning you couldn't get
enough cash for a postage stamp.
Il accordingly wired an Italian
friend in Florence and explained my
situation. He Immediately wired back
for me to stay in Venice as he was
sending a messenger there with 10000
lire for me. That put me on easy
street, and also enabled me to help
others who were not so fortunate"

AMERICAN REF
UCEES TELL or
TROUBLE IN EUROPE

Few American refugees have been
able to tell the good luck" story
which George B. Mcclellan, ex-Mayor
Of New York, told today after his
arrival on the Principe di Udine.
MY wife and l were in Karersee, in
the Austrian Tyrol. when the war
broke out" said Mr.. Mcclellan. "An
the horses in the town were being
commandered, and, in fact, most of
them had left before we woke up to
the gravity of the situation. But |
happened to see a peasant with an old
broken down wagon and team of
equally WORKOUT horses, standing in
front of our hotel. l asked him
where he was going, and he said to
turn his horses in at Bozen for the
Austrian army l then asked how
how much he wanted to take couple
of passengers with him. He demand
ed only the regular tariff for the trip.
and so my wife and l jumped in and
went along. At BoZen we caught the
last train down to Venice There l be-
gan to get a little short of money,
but | always go to the same hotel
there. and the proprietor was glad to
take my check. l gathered together
sufficient cash by going from one of
the correspondents on my letter of
credit to another and picking up the
small amounts which each would give
me.
From Venice | went to Milan and
then, hearing of this ship, ! hurried
down to Genoa and got passage. So
you see I have had no heart-rending
experiences. However, I am sure that
that is not always the case. Italy is
the centre for many American stu
dents. and it is among them that the
worse cases of hardship arise. So
many of them have saved up all their
moneys for a trip abroad, and have
nothing left in this country to draw
on.
There is one distressing case which
came to my attention when we stopped
in Milan. An American girl had saved
up enough money to pay her expenes
for two years of study in Milan. She
deposited this with the Thomas Cook
Office there. and was in the habit of
drawing out her months expenses at
the first of each month. When she
went around there early in August she
was told that she couldn't get any
money at all. Had 1t not been for the
American relief committee there, and
especially for DIR. Butler, she might
easily have had very bad time of it"
j. B. Thomas and Harrison Rhodes
came down from St. Moritz, where they
say there are over 800. Americans
