have been having some vacations on
the installment plan, and while we have
read so much aud heard so much OF the
beauties OF Maine, one cannot realize
what Hancock county itself can present
in delightful views and scenery until an
exploring expedition is enjoyed.
One trip Was like this; Entrance on
new road and on TO other new roads
leading through woods, winding around
hills, climbing steep and long sscents,
coming into magnificent views o. dis
tant mountains, OF flowing streams, of
placid ponds rejecting overhanging
branches; then down a steep hill into
some quiet valley and up sgain to see ON
the slopes thrifty farms, with sheep and
cattle grazing on the hillsides.
And so, on and on, and then-Aunt
Maria's, for that was our objective point,
or one of them. Yes, she and Uncle
Marx we're there, and a guest of theirs.
We thoaght he was ''dolling up for

and hope we made our stay not so lengthy
that they should miss any pleasure. We

not done much work in, but the tubs and
pals OF geraniums are worth seeing; the
dablias are budded and the glAdioIi grow
ing fine, which, considering that they
have been showered al night with six
teen pals of water by Amt Maria her
self, ought to show their gratitude by
growing well. The house plants were
very pretty, too. We called on the bossies,
irst-class ones, and were introduced to
the horses and walked through the eighty
foot barn.
You will think by this time we had
made quite a call. So did we, and in
curing the way 10 the home Of
"Grandma Disab bic" we wound around
another hill, found her, and trust
she was as glad to see Us as we were
to meet her. The view was also fine,
and We could just discern the outline OF
one mountain top which sic told Us the
old people used to say was Mt. Wash
ington, but she did not youch for that
as a fact. Everyw here here roses and
other flowers brighten the places and
from both OF these we were given beauti-

blossoms. Aunt Maria was partial to

And little use complaining,
For the darkest night win change to light,
And the blacklist cloud quit raining.

Twill do all good TO know
That some one thought they nobly wrought
And frankly told them so.
Enough will remain Of bitter pain,
With all the aid you lend;
some will be sad and others glad
On down to the journeys end.
As ia the throng You pass along,
With rapid strides or slow,

Just stop and tell them so.
There are many eares in home affairs
That wear the brain and heart
And many 8 way, most every day,
In which to bear part
If you love your wife as you do your iife'
