passing hat lot Of bats are fitting

they re out Of reason, and buyers always cry,

with sorrow; alas, my girls, have no trust
in better things tomorrow!'
man must talk like this when nieces
aunts and cousins would touch him for his
hard-earned dimes to buy new gowns in doz-
ems. So when females of my home come up
with smiles to work me, the sweat of anguish
racks my dome and dire emotions jerk me;
and put up bitter spiel about the ills that
face me, until some sympathy they feel and
they no longer chase me.
We've talked this sort of stuff too long.
not only to the ladies' we've sworn that
everything is wrong from Halifax to Cadiz
We've stood before the synagogues and cried
in anger heady, "All things are going to
the dogs if they'rs not there already!"
We've chased around the changing marts with
faces long and gloomy, and talked about our
broken hearts, and wept till eyes were
rheumy
And now it s time to change the tune, and
cut out whine and whimper, to be as happy
as loon, and, like one smile and shipper

At home the old grief graft will go;

around knee-deep in woe, when all the girls
surround him; when one would buy far
thingae, and one point-lace collar and
all are eager for the kale, and yearning for
the dollar. The married man has certain
rights as to the tomb he hurries; and he
may walk the floor at nights, and talk about
his worries. But when he leaves his home
behind, to mingle with his fellows, he ought
to have cheerful mind, that's free from
blues and yellows.
Too long we We soshed around in tears and
heaved our groans so hollow and handed out
our dotard fears and talked Of worse to fol-

The declaration recites that the in

preserved and the government Of the
people and its representatives. in order
to protect the interests of the work

tons, based on the experience of all

Quiet Along the Water Front

In speaking of the lack of activity
along the water front in Gardiner
during the past two seasons one of
our local men remarked Thursday
that 1t was highly probable that
some of the departed glory of the
city in the line of shipping would
probably return, especially now that
n resumption of the Kennebec and
Boston steamship service seemed
likely. Ever since the withdrawal of
the line OF steamers the river traffic
has been on the decline and the war
seemed to deal kennebec shipping the
final blow. The first step toward
recovery was the reorganization of
the towage service, which had gone
by the board along with the rest.
Presumably the ice business of the
Kennebec has gone, never to return
and II the full amount OF shipping is
to be restored something must be
