BILL TO STOP
SALE Of CIDER

Senator Edward F. Flaherty OF
Cumberland championed the bill pre-
scented by him to include the sale of
cider along with whiskey and other
Intoxicating liquor before the commit
tee on temperance Wednesday after
noon. In opening Senator F1aherty
said that he was glad to see SO many
temperance people present at the hear
ing, as he knew that he would have
their CO. cooperation in this measure. He
presented the bill at the suggestion of
members from the rural districts.
Frederick W. Hinckley of South
Portland said that there was enough
law on the books at present to stop
the sale Of cider as beverage.
Sheriff William NJ. Pennell of Cum
berland county said that it was a we'll
known fact that it was very difficult
to convict a person of selling cider.
He believed that cider should be plac-
ed in the same category as any other
intoxicating liquor when it becomes
intoxicating.
Ex-Attorney General Scott Wilson Of
Portland said that there was no need
Of more legislation to stop the sale
OF cider and Mrs. Althea c. DUMMY
of Turner, the president Of the Wo-
mems Christian Temperance Union of
Maine, said that she was opposed to
the bill as there was no need of it,
the present law having plenty of teeth.

Got Him GUESSING.

An old miner, bachelor, had pref
~ niece, who kept his house, and at
his death he bequeathed all his earn
ings to her on condition that she mar
ried Tom j., young miner in whom
he had always taken a deep interest
But the pretty niece had no wish to
marry Tom and put herself out Of his
reach by wedding hard working fac
tory lad. The heir at law was not at
all displeased with the niece for mar
rying another, as he thought that now
the old miners wealth would come to
him.
THAT siller belongs to me now, l
reckon" he said TO the trustee, white
haired old collier, who had ideas of his
own. "Susan's lost it by marryin' the
wrong man. SO you'd better hand 1t
over"
Not so fast. lad" replied the trus-
tee. You'll have to be patient for
awhile Susan may marry and bury
dozen husbands and still come doom to
you in the end"
And the heir at law is wondering
whether this is really so.-London Tit

His Fine Contract.

Giorgio Polacco's brilliancy as reveal
ed In music does not extend to the do
main of business if one may judge by
a story told by Algernon st. John
Brenon. Mr.. PolacCo was approached on
one occasion by Milanese agent offer
ing him an engagement ut Lisbon. Mr..
Polacco named certain price as re-
Enumeration. The engagement, how
ever, fell through, as Mr.. POiacco had
to go elsewhere. The next season the
same agent asked MIR. PoacCo his terms
again and for the same city. Mr.. Po-
lacco named them. The agent, acting
with a certain celebrity, ASKED Mr. Po-
lacco to sign then and there. This was
done, and Mr.. Polacco took his contract
home to his wife. The latter read 1t.
Then she folded 1t up and looked
straight at her husband. "Giorgio," she
said, very TRANQUILITY, you have made
q great contract" "Ah," said Mr.. Po-
lacco delightedly, Il know l have"
Yes, Giorgio," resumed his wife, you
have asked and accepted less than last
year-and-also the season is q month
longer"

Circles.

Circles are things In which people
move and reason.
Those who move In circles imagine
that they make the world go round,
and those who reason In circles are pos
tive Of 1t. However, a wheel Is really
the only thing that can move in cir
Gle and get anywhere.
The periphery Of the face makes a
circle, every part of which Is equally
distant from a point within, called the
scenter.
Society has circles, especially under
its eyes. Those who move In social
circles move because they are so I'M
easy they cannot keep still.
Marital Jars and connubial pugilism
influence the belief that the family cir
Gle might frequently be termed a ring
with equal appropriateness.
The girl who has many graceful
curves generally has large circle of
admirers.-Life.

A Prose Poem on MackereI.

l can't overemphasize the beauty Of
cnese fish. You must see them for
yourself to grasp the reason for my
enthusiasm.
Examine them. Look at the shape of
them.
See their graceful lines, built like a
torpedo for speed.
Look at that fine, solid nose, that
beautiful firm back, that powerful two
blade propeller shaped tail.
Study the stripes and dots.
Like the human finger print, each
mackerel possesses an individualistic
design.
No two were ever seen alike. The
variations are simply infinite. The flesh
Is fit for the gods!
What thing of beauty a mackerel
is!-New York Globe.
