Cultivate " Earnestly, but Do Not
Garry II to Excess.
Thrift is composite quality. 1t en-
braces within itself nearly all of the
great virtues. Ii involves industry,
prudence, forethought, self denial.
1t certainly has no relation to mig
gardliness or meanness
Some men would let their grand
mothers starve for the sake Of a few
dollars. Such action cannot be called
thrifty. A virtue carried to excess be-
comes a vice and is no longer a virtue
Thrift that does not take into part
nership honesty of character develops
into covetousness and avarice.
Thrift is the opposite of thriftless-
ness, prodigality. improvidence and
waste.
Thrift means better homes and bet
ter food, more comfort and enjoyment,
less waste and less anxiety.
1t is possible that large proportion
of people have earnings so small that
saving seems impossible. But this is no
reason for their being unthrifty. On
the contrary, 1t is reason for making
the best and the most of the little they
have for their health. comfort and true
happiness.

seed as ever was sown.

Market

Boston, June 30.-On the strength of
published reports that potato prices in
New York and Philadelphia, due to heavy
shipments from the eastern shore of Vir
ginia, had dropped from $l2 to 81 bar
rel wholesale, dealers had expected a
similar decline here yesterday, although
quotations still ranged from SO TO ST.,
with no indication Of an early change.
At the Boston Fruit & Produce ex-
change it was stated that 10000 barrels
of Virginia potatoes reached here yester-
day and that another shipment of 5000
barrels was due to-day. Officers of the
exchange notified dealers that they had
learned from New York that only few
barrels had been sold in that city around
81, and that these were of an inferior
grade.

DEATH OF PRESI-
DENT HYDE OF
BOWDOIN COLLEGE
Long Leading Figure in the Educa-
tional Life of New England--Had
Been Ill for Some Time.

brunswick, Me- June ou.-fIesluenl
William Dewitt Hyde of Bowdoin college
died yesterday after months illness
due to general breakdown in health
Death came shortly after the noon hour
President Hyde is survived by wife
who was Miss Prudence n. Phillips Of
Southbridge, Mass, and son, George
P. Hyde, a Boston attorney.
In the death OF DR.. Hyde New Eng
land education loses one of its notable
figures. Elected president of Bowdoin
when he was only twenty. seven years
old, he held the Office for thirty two
years, during which time the college en-
joyed unusual material and intellectual
prosperity President Hyde had not been
well for some time. The trustees of
the college, indeed, only last week grant
ed him six months leave OF absence.
This June, for the first time in years,
the president was unable to attend the
exercises of commencement. There had
been no indication, however, that his
illness might prove fatal.
Dr. Hyde was born at Winchendon,
Mass, in 1858. He was graduated from
Phillips Exeter in 1875 and from Har
ward in 1879. The next two years he
spent at Union seminary and the next
year at Andover Theological seminary.
He followed up this preparation for the
ministry by taking graduate course
at Andover and then some studies in
philosophy at Harvard. His first pastor
ate was in Paterson, n. j. There he
preached in a little church of $50 mem
bers In 1885, when he was called to
the presidency of Bowdoin, he was so
youthful looking that he was dubbed
'the boy president"
President Hyde had many opportunti-
ties to leave Bowdoin for a larger field,
but always felt that his life work was
to be done in Brunswick He received
,all from Amherst in 1890, was offered
the position of secretary of the Massa
,husetts state board of education in
1904, and was prominently mentioned as
The possible successor to President FL

Getting Around a Difficulty.

Automobile manufacturers of the
United States do not purpose allowing
serious matter, such as railway traf-
f1c congestion. to interfere with their
business, if they can help it. When
the big freight tieup first began to
look formidable. automobile makers
faced prospective loss running into
many millions of dollars. because, ap
parently, they could not secure deliv-
cries. Not until then did it occur to
them that, if an automobile was worth
anything at all, it should be able to de-
liver itself. And now what is known to
the trade as the ''drive-away" has been
inaugurated. The cars leave the fac
tory and arrive at their destination
under their own power. A drove of
81 cars was recently sent from Cleve
land to Chicago in this way. 1t is ex
pected that the "drive-away" will be-
come fashionable thing during the
coming summer-Christian Science

Significance of Easter Water.

1t is said to be a preservative
against illness for the whole year to
wash oneself in snow or rain water
fallen on Easter. In Saxony the peas
ants also bring their horses into the
water to ward off sickness from them.
The Easter water, however, has vir-
tue only when, while drawing it, the
wind is due east. So far is this car
ried in the northern parts of Europe
that, when the spring is backward,
and the Easter waters still ice-bound,
the pious folk break through the ice
in order to battle in the streams. Often
great numbers gather on the banks
and encourage the bathers with shouts
and cheers.
