The funeral was held in the Chris

officiating. The discourse was a
scriptural and philosophical exc
gesis of the subject OF life and
death. The family desires to ex-
press their thanks to the neigh

ness and sympathy during their
bereavement.
Life's silver cord is broken now,
Earth's tender ties are sundered all,
Deaths icy blast has struck the tree
And caused it's leaves to fade and fall
But memory will ever keep
Her silent vigil through the years,
Turn back the pages of the past
To mingle sunshine with our tears.

YOUNG FOLKS CORNER
KIM Frost at Work.

When you get up ON a cold winters
morning haven't you noticed the won
derful pictures King Frost has put Oh
your windows while you have been
asleep? If you look at these pictures
closely you will see that they are made
up of long. feathery frost ferns.
Now, these ferns consist Of thousands
of little crystals of frost, so small that
it takes 10000 of them to cover a pen
ny, and in the process of freezing they
have drawn together so as to form a
pattern.
The heat of your room and the cold
ness of the outside air have caused a
mist to gather on the window pane,
and II you examine this mist under a
microscope you will find that it is
nothing more than tiny drops of water.
Presently as the cold becomes more
intense each Of these drops freezes into
little crystal, which is called an lice
flower" and each crystal usually has
six points. There are more than 1000
kinds of crystals. and they all go to,
ward the making of King FrOst's pic
ture
If the frost is very keen then the
pattern of his picture will be coarse
one. If there is little frost it will be &
fine one. But King Jack Frost is
wonderful artist. for he never makes
two pictures alike, though he produces
millions every winter.

will be profitable for you to read that
little national dairy magazine, Kim
balls Dairy Farmer. 1t is published
semi-monthly at Waterloo, Iowa, the
hub of the great dairy region of the
central west. 1t is ably edited, well
printed on good book paper and hand
somely illustrated by actual photo
graphs taken exclusively for it. Its
purpose is educational and to the man
who would make his COWS yield larger
profits, this little magazine is indis-
pensable. Regardless of how many
other papers the farmer may take, this
one is worth many times its price to
him. The subscription price is only
so cents year, and the paper will
positively be discontinued at expira

Youl. Postmaster

is an important man in the commune
ity. He has many things to look
after, and watches the time for the
arrival and departure Of the mails
very carefully. If he didn't follow the
regular schedule, things would be in
a pretty fix. But he knows the value
of regularity and takes good care to
get the mails off on time. In mat
tiers of health the postmaster's ex-
ample is good one to follow. Keep
your habits regular, and when the
stomach, liver or bowels need help, be
sure to take the right remedy in time.
Neglect to do this makes matters
worse and harder to remedy. Many
postmasters in New England will tell
you that IL. F." Atwood's Medicine
is fine remedy to keep the system in
order. 1t is great regulator, acting
promptly in cases of indigestion, sick

"Uo To" Mr.. Garrison.

mo postscript or amendment of the
Lusitania note was ever written or
contemplated by me except SUCH
changes as | myself inserted which
strengthened and emphasized the pro-
test'-President Wilson's denial"
II take it for granted that the Pres
ident will deal with the matter as he
deems wise, if indeed any attention
need be paid it after Mr.. Brecken-
ridges denial"-Mr. Bryans denial
Anyone who quoted me to Senator
Lodge as represented in your tele-
gram is quoted as a scoundrel. NO
member of President Wilson's cabines
ever threatened him on any subject.
The malice that would seek for parti-
san advantage to enasculate the po-
tency Of ones government in a grave
International affair by the mongering
Of back stair gossip is beneath con-
tempt.-Mr. Breckenridge's denial"
Former Secretary OF War Garrison,
who resigned because the notes" were
petering out to mean nothing. when
asked concerning the postscript" de-
manded whether Breckenridge had de-
MED the statement. When told what
Breckenridge had said he declined,
in these words, to discuss the subject:
Il have no statement Of any kind to
make. "-Garrison's denial"
To summarize, then, the President
denies that he (the Presidency ever
wrote or contemplated such a post
script. No one has said that he did
write 1t or conceive" it. Mr.. Bryan
denies nothing, nor does he relieve the
Presidents embarrassment by admit
ting that he (Bryan) conceived, wrote,
and introduced at the cabinet meeting
postscript" carrying the same as
surance which he personally gave to
Ambassador Dumba.
Mr.. Breckenridge does not attempt to
deny the facts as related, and former
Secretary Garrison. who could instant
~ settle the entire controversy, refuses
to say word. His inquiry as to what
the assistant secretary of war had said
is significant.
Two things have been brought out:
That Secretary Bryan refused to sign
the mote" II the postscript was not
added. and Secretary of War Garrison
refused to remain for single mo-
ment member Of the cabinet il it was
added. Out OF these conflicting con-
victions came the resignation Of both
gentlemen.
To our mind, Mr.. Garrison holds the
Key to the situation. If the so-called
Lodge charges are groundless then Mr..
Garrison owes it to his former associ-
ates to say so, unequivocally. II they
are in substance true his silence will
be SO accepted.

The Thorndike Hotel closed Monday,
Oct. 80. it's lessees being unable to con-
tinue on account Of financial troubles.
The closing of this establishment.
which is one Of the largest and best
known hotels in the State. Is viewed
with much regret by the citizens. who
have taken no little pride in the fact
that Rockland has had better hotel &C
commodations than many New Eng
land cities of double its size. 1t is
difficult to believe that it will not be
re-opened at an early date, although
there is nothing now to indicate it.
