WHITE CASE

The matter now rests with the Ike
cutive Council as regarding advice to
The Governor and the latter as to a
decision.
The second day of the hearing in
the case of T. Herbert White of Ban
gor. sheriff of Penobscot county, to
show reason why he should not be
removed from office for failure to
enforce the prohibitory law in
Penobscot county. was delayed in
opening by a long conference be-
tween the attorney general and
council for Sheriff White as to an
agreement in handling the evidence
in a manner TO shorten the proceed
ings.
It was 1915 when Attorney Gen.
eral Sturgis made that announce
mcnt to the Governor and Council in
the han Of the House of Represen-

n plan of procedure involving state
ments by the attorney general to
substantiate the charges as outlined
in his opening and such other
charges as may be made. together
with statement from the defence to
substantiate their claims in Sheriff
Whites defence.
In this manner there would be but
little Controversion of facts and
counsel could argue on the faithful
ness and efficiency of Sheriff White
and leave TO the good judgment Of
the Governor and Council to decide
the point of faithfulness and eff
ficiency.
This method of procedure would

"HTs SECOND wIFE'

 publishers. New York city.
 In this new book, the author of ''The Harbor has written another story of American life. His Second Wife" is highly original and dra- matic novel. combining freshness of treatment with dept of feeling and sincerity Iteis Poole of 'tThe Harbor'' again. with his keenness in character analysis. his sure dramatie instinct. his skilled handling of plot and sit uation.
 In the characters of Ethel the sec ond wife, and Joey her husband, Mir. Poole has drawn two figures of sur, passing integest which will take their place beside the father and daugh- ter of His Family among the most interesting creatures of recent fiction.
 When the novel opens, EtheE the books central character through whose eyes the reader sees all the others as well as all the events which occusis on the train coming to New I ork with her married sister, Amy, whose Apartment is henceforward to @ be her home. Nearly all her 22 years of life had been spent with her father in little town in Ohio. There sine had had many girl friends and in her high school club they had Spoken of marriage and divorce" discussed "suf- frage and the rest of life" She pic- tured New York in her thoughts as ga place of vistas opening into world of great ideas, and one of the clev- crest parts of the book is that one in which Mir. Poole describes the swift submergence and seeming destruction of Ethers ideas under the smiling in- .1f +1,1 srk- |. T mires, and who is very good to her. But when Ethel has been less than mont hin town, and before she nas met any of her sisters friends, Amy is taken suddenly i'll and dies in few hours. With delft, clear strokes, MT. Poole portrays the confusion and deso.g lation which follows; the apparently heartbroken husband. the subdued and rather frightened chi1d--for Amy leaves a 2-yeaF -old girl, little Susette and bewildered Ethel. who in all New York has not single friend and only one acquaintance. woman who had been Amy's most intimate friend, and to whom Ethel herself takes an immediate and intense dislike. After the funeral is over. Ethel feels that she cannot abandon Joe and Amy's hild Moreover, she has no home and is piacticall ypenniless. while her one attempt to earn her own living ends m a most abrupt and diSconcerting manner. So she remains to keep house and look after little Susette, and ty the time Amy has been dead a year she has fallen in love with Joe and he with her. They marry, and then the contest begins
 The book contains number of cley- CT touches.

HE DARKENED HIS
 GRAY HAIR
They Used to Call Him Grand pa; Now They Call Him Kid
Tells How He Did It


 Mir. J. A. McCrea well known resident of San Francisco who was called Daddy and Grandpa on ac- count of his white hair, and who dark ened it with simple home made mix ture. recently made the following statepent:
 Anyone can prepare a simple mix turc at home, at very little cost that will darken gray hair, and make it soft and glossy. To a half pint of water add one ounce of bay rum, a small box of Barbo Compound and one-fourth ounce of giycerine These ingredients can be bought at any urug store at very little cost. Apply to the hair twice d week until the de- sired shade is obtained. This is not a dye, it does not color the most delicate scalp, is not sticky or greasy and does not rub off.

lures which have afforded joy to SC many hearers.
 Like the authors former books, "In-
 cluding Finigin" and 'Including You
 and Me- the new volume will make a strong appeal to everybody; for it is a tonic to the mind and heart. Wit, humor, clear thinking and wholesome view of life flow through the pages. Such book as this is needed in these times to revive our sense of humor and thereby strengthen our mental balance
 and ideas of proportion. When Gillfian talks about human nature we feel that it is good and sound and noble. We can understand why Gillian after 20 years on the platform is in such de- mand for lecture engagements that he cannot respond to the greater part of the requestsA What he says is worth hearing. Through this joyful book ev. erybody can have the privilege of hear. ing the equivalent of two of his bes; lectures.
 This book is pleasing not alone for it's wit and jollity but also for the serious touches which appear here and there such as these closing lines:
 "The purpose of humor is to foster in human beings that sane, wholesome philosophy or religion known as optim- 1 ism Now, optimism isn't what some people think it is.

There's a vast diff ference between an optimist and any
