To which Chamberlain replies:
Nay, by my faith, I think you are
more beholden to the night than to
ferne seed for your walking invisible.
Even so late as the time of Addison,
the superstition was still alive, and in
the "Tatler" he laughs at a quack who
pretended to have arrived at a knowl-
edge of the green and red dragon, and
of the female fern seed. The dragon, by
the way, was in part connected with
the image in the cut root of the fern,
which, instead of an oak, was some
times thought to present "a dragone
spyttnge tyre" and suggesting strange
fortunes to the finder. In Hudibras,
Butler alludes again to the supersti-
ton about
That spring like fern, that insect weed,
Equivocally, without seed.

die, that grandsires still alive have

THE RECEIPT OF FERN SEED.
InvisibiIity and Other Magical Eff
fects of Ferns.

In all the old time magic, the fern
seed held the most prominent place.
1t was precious beyond telling. The
man who was so fortunate as to pos
sess it might walk invisible among
his enemies, and in his body he would
possess the strength Of 80 or 40 men;
and therefore the apothecary who had
the seed for sale held in his hands a
fortune. The difficulty was that the
man who had the seed was always in
the next township, and when you
reached his shop he had Just sold his
last seed, and, Of course, you knew
that he could get no more until the
following midsummer highland even
then, 1t would be only by rare good
luck that he would be able 50 accom-
modate you.
1t was dangerous thing-a des-
perate adventure-to gather fern seed.
Stories differed as to the manner in
which the seed was produced, but all
accounts agreed that once produced,
the devil took especial charge OF 1t,
and did his best to prevent its gather
ing. Perhaps the apothecary would
tell you that just at dusk, on the eve
Of st. John, the fern would put forth
small blue flower; that this flower
ripening and forming it's seed within
the few hours between dusk and mid
night, would. at that dread hour, shake
down the magic grains on plate held
under the plant. Others say that the
!. seed. was merely those tiny granules

ENGINE HALL, BINGHAM, IS
Scene OF AN ENTHUSIASTIC
REPUBLICAN GATHERING
Ex-Gov. Fernald Chief Speaker of En-
couraging Meeting Saturday Evening
Hon. Forrest Colby Presides

by is a man that takes Democrats and
Republicans with him. 1t was he alone
that survived the Democratic land
slide in 1910. He is the kind of man
that the people want at Augusta as
legislator and thus have repeatedly
sent him. and now are anxious to send
him again.
Most encouraging reports and signs
presented themselves at this meeting.
A feature came when Hon. A. S. Burke.
known throughout this county as one
of the most influential citizens and
temperance advocates, and for 30
years the leader in the county of the
Prohibition party, for the first time
publicly announced that he should in
the future be found with the Repub-
lican party because 1t is the party thar
stands for the highest moral princt-
pies. He related his experience in poll
itics in his lifetime and told of his
candidacy on a fusion ticket years ago,
for register of deeds. He was stump
ing the county in the interests of the
ticket and was standing in his speeches
strongly for temperance. The Demo-
Gratis came to him and told him that
he must stop talking temperance or he
would be defeated. Mr.. Burke said
that he needed the office as he was
then a young man and poor but he
said he told the Democrats that he
might lose his election but he should
continue to talk temperance. He said
that he was defeated by 100 votes but
he never was sorry for his stand. In
telling why he came to the Republican
party now he said that since then and
because of the Democratic party's
stand at present on moral questions,
he wanted to be found with the Repub-
lican party and help elect the ticket.
There was a general volunteer guard
of the young business and professional
men of the town who asked publicly
to do active work through the COM
ing campaign. Included among these
were men who had been Progressives
and men who before have been indif-
ferent in politics. There seemed to be
a spirit of earnestness that indicated
a personal interest Clarence Dutton.
one of the most energetic business
men of the town, is a candidate for
representative and the writer in talk
ing with the citizens privately found
that he was the kind of man that
would command the votes of other par
ties as we'll as his own. This district
is sure to send a Republican to the
Legislature and the people of Bing-
ham are much pleased that they have
so good a candidate as Mr. Dutton.
The voters present presented proof
in their expressions that the Progress
sive party in this district would make
no showing and that the Democratic
party was the only factor to contend
with and that preliminary canvasses
already made showed there were al
ready men of that party who would
vote the Republican ticket in Septem-
Der. Among the speakers for the eve
ming were Senator w. L. Walker, C. p
Merrill, w. T. Seekins. ]. E. Taylor,
Skowhegan; Clarence Dutton and H.

as now true Republicans and standing

one meets Bert Fernald that is ever a
loyal friend of Fernald's and history
will record that he was one of Maine
best governors. He spoke for about
an hour on the most important issues
of the day. He cited facts of his own
business experience that showed that
Maine under the present national ad-
ministration was suffering because of
the new tariff law. Among other
things he said that he was an owner
of a creamery that was doing yearly
business of about 100000 and that in
March, 1918, the creamery paid the
farmers for their butter fat SO cents
per pound and that in March, 1914, I'M
der the new tariff law the foreign
markets forcing them to it, they paid
the farmers % cents a pound for but
ter fat. He declared that on account
of foreign dairy products Maine farm
ers were losing $1,000 per day. In
speaking on other products of the
Maine farmer he said that he stood
on the platform at Danville station a
short time ago and counted 20 car
loads of hay being shipped from Can
ada to Boston markets, and he said
that farmers in his section were tell
ing him that they were getting $3.50
less per ton than a year before. AS
president of the National Gamers
Association, Governor Fernald re-
ferred to his association with many
prominent Democrats of the coutry.
They declared to him that the DEM
ocratic party could handle local af-
IdlTS part Oh the lllile successfully, out
1t proved disastrous to turn a State
or national government over to them.
They lacked the constructive policies
that would work for the benefit of a
