THE LOST.
w shall | find my own

How shall find my own
In those vas spaces
Which must enter alien and alone!
How know their faces
Touched by new light, with such new
wisdom wise?
They well might pass unknown before
my eyes.
Strange as the petalled flower is TO the
bee
That hung upon the bud in spring-tlme
ecstacy.
How shall know by own2
The moon that marches,
Nights almoner benz gnant, safe and lone
Up Heavens arches,
With her abundant tide of silver, laves
The mournful dust of aforementioned
graves.
The holy say that forth from every prison,
A flower from deaths dark cave, some
soul has risen.
Mid all these blooms in Gods great gar
den close,
How shall | find and clasp my own pale
How shall find my own
Loves that have flown me,
If they so pure, so clear OF sight have
grown
That they disown me?
How can | meet their looks of panied sur
prise,
Or meet the sad compassion of their eyes?
They on the starry heights and l below
Must weep that angelhood has changed
them So
Seek where will, no way to me is shown.
How shall find my own,
How shall find my own?

NOW BUY THRIFT STAMPS.

In four and a third months 81, 208, 900
worth of Thrift and War Savings stamps
have been sold in Maine. These figures
look big at first glance, but alarmingly
small when it is known that before Jan.
/. 1919, the Pine Tree State must reach
Sis, 600, 600 quota.
Director Brown did not expect the sales
would reach this average figure in the
opening month or two of the campaign,
but he confesses that he is disappointed
that the high tide of sales reached in
February, after three months of the cam
paign, was but S344, 500, and that sales
have been dropping since that time.
Compared with the other States Maine
has made fairly good showing, but Mr..
Brown goes on the plan "never mind
what the other Teller does, look after
your own business"
Since March list, the sales in seven
counties of the State have shown in
creases. and in the other nine counties
losses. In percentage of gain, little Sag
adahoc with 1l8 per cent increase is an
easy leader, then come Androscoggin,
Washington, Franklin, Kennebec, Knox
and Waldo. The biggest loss is shown by
Lincoln county, which shows 81 per cent
less sales than in February.

SAY WHAT YOU MEAN.

The bill providing six months pay for
the relatives of soldiers of the regular
army whose deaths from wounds or dis
ease result from service applies to any
>eofJicer or enlisted man." The term ZEN
listed man" is considered dangerously
ambiguous by Representative Edward Z.
Little of Kansas, and he is advocating an
amendment that will be sure to include
drafted men. The War Department con-
siders II soldiers as enlisted, no matter
how they may have entered the service,
but the dictionary makes distinction
Between enlisted" and drafted" Mr..
E little contends the language should be
cleared up so as to avoid any complica-
lions in the future after the bill has be-
come law.

We notice that our optimistic and genial

We notice that our optimistic and genial
acquaintance, Hon. Elmer E. Newbert of
Augu ia, wants to be the Democratic
candidate for United States Senator, to
run against Senator Fernald. We wonder
if he has read son-in- law McAdoo's let
ter to a prominent man in New York
State in which he says: "this is no time
for politics, but it is time when every
loyal and patriotic citizen should be kept
on the job where he is doing it well. "
Mr. Newbert will discover that the voters
of Maine will endorse what Mr.. McAdoo
wrote and our entire delegation in Con-
gress will be re- elected, because they
have been con the job and done it we'll. "

Preservation of Eggs i'll Water
Glass.

Next winter eggs will be scare and due
to the increased cost of produ stlon and
the depletion of our poultry flocks, the
price is bound to reach an even higher
mark than last year. In the spring or
the year during April, May and June,
eggs are plentiful, and the retail price
reaches its lowest level. The housewife
should take advantage of this low priced
sprine market, and plan to preserve
enough eggs to carry her through the
winter months, when the price OF tresh
eggs is often prohibitive. A family OF
two will need to preserve at least 81
dozen eggs for winter use. The cheap
est, simplest, and most satisfactory meth
cd of preserving eggs at home is by the
use of water glass solution which can be
obtained from most any drug store, and
should be of full strength. Eggs preserv-
ed in water glass solution can be success
fully kept for over nine months and may
be used for any purpose. Ii, however,
the eggs are boiled, it will be necessary
to puncture the air cell end (the big end
to allow for the escape of the expanded
air; otherwise the eggs are likely to crack
Eggs that have been in the water glass
solution should be rinsed before using
Eggs should be put down in the months
of April, May and June, when their quail
ity is the highest and their price the low
est. Use only strictly fresh, infertile
eggs. Do not preserve dirty eggs, nor
eggs that have been washed. Dirty eggs
will become tainted In flavor and washed
eggs may not keep. Washing is likely to
remove the protective covering without
which the eggs will not keep successfully.
Use only thick shelled eggs Eggs with
thin or cracked shell may spoil the whole
crock of eggs. Any egg that floats in
water glass should be discarded.
The best containers for water glass are
tubs, barrels, or earthen ware creeks.
The size to use depends on the number OF
eggs to be preserved. A>sixgallon earth
en- ware crock with tight fitting cover
will hold fifteen dozen eggs. All contain
ers before using should be thoroughly
cleaned with boiling water. They should
be provided with tight fitting covers to
prevent the evaporation of the solution.
Never use metal containers as the solu-
ton will corrode them.
Mix l-2 quarts of commercial water
glass solution with l8 quarts of pure
water, which has been thoroughly boiled
and then cooled Stir the solution until
thoroughly mixed. This mixture is
enough for 80 dozen eggs. Pour the solu-
ton into the crock, until crock is about
one-half full. AS the eggs are gathered
place them in the. crock, large end up.
At all times there should be at least two
inches of the solution covering the top
layer of eggs. To stop evaporation, keep
the crock covered with a tight lifting
cover. The container should be placed
on shelf in cool, we'll ventilated place,
preferably in cellar, where the temper
allure is fairly constant, ranging from 40
degrees to 60 degrees F. Do not let the
sun shine upon containers

GIRLS! ITS YOUR
STEP THAT ATTRACTS!
SAYS women pay too much heed to their
face instead of their corns.

Watch your step! A brisk, lively step
is what charms more than lovely skin,
but your high heels have caused corns
and you limp little. That's bad, girls,
and you know it. Corns destroy beauty
and grace, besides corns are very easy to
remove.
Rid your feet of every corn by asking
at any drug store for quarter of an
ounce of freezone. This will cost little
but is sufficient to remove every hard or
soft corn or callus from ones feet.
A few drops applied directly upon a
tender, touchy corn relieves the soreness
and soon the entire corn, root and all,
lifts right out without pain.
This freezone is gummy substance
which dries instantly and simply shrivels
up the corn without inflaming or even
irritating the surrounding skin.
Women must keep in mind that corn
less feet create youthful step which en-
hances her attractiveness.

LOVE ONE ANOTHER.

When blessed peace shall bring release
From these days of war and greed;
And gone are years of pain and tears
That have made all nations bleed.
Truth, justice, love from God above
Be the world wide dispensations-
For victory, for liberty,
For the brotherhood of nations.
In His own time with faith sublime
We shall reach the promised GOAL
Democracy, all people free
And the triumph of the soul!
In Him we trust to keep US Just
To each friend, or foe or brother,
That all on earth shall know the worth
Of the words, "Love one Another"
