"JBsT RUMINATIN'."
(Robert Russell.)

All praise to summer: she ain't dead: her final smile is sweet; she's biddin' US good bye before the winter we must meet. She wants us to re- member that she'll come again next year: she wants us to ap- preciate her presence while she's here. But in her smile O gentleness there comes the warnin' plain, that fall an winter is the time to get to work again. We've had our short vacations an our sloth has been excused; vitality that comes with fall must never be abused. Get ready for an ac- tive life, says that ol brtar pipe: for energy in doin' things the harvest time is ripe. The kids are goin' back to school: the moonlit nights won't last: store up your pleasant memo rics O summer nearly past. Put in a winter that will count; when summer comes once more you'll have a time more joyous than you've ever had before. Get ready for the farewell kiss O summer; shed no tear. an let her find you finer when she comes again next year.

way. Prof. E. S. Watson was called
here on Saturday by the board and Of

Plan Change in Newport Schools.

The board of school trustees met on
Saturday and voted to change our
present system of school government.
A letter was sent to Mr.. Hillegas of
Montpelier, state commissioner of ed
ucation, asking permission to make
this change. The plan is to place the
management of the three city schools
in the hands of a supervising princi-
pal. 1t is believed that in so doing
the work and management of the
would do away with office of superin-
tendent in the city schools, these du-
ties being given over into the hands
of the supervising principal, who
would not act as instructor. This
would leave the superintendent free to
concentrate his energies upon the
work of the town schools and those of
surrounding towns. This decision

Pearl Poachera.

To see the pearl fisher at work
there is no need to go to the South
seas. In the first fine days of June
he may be found by burn or loch in
a dozen parts of Scotland, says a cor
respondent. He is usually of the tin
ker class, and his outfit Is Of the SIM
plest-a water telescope made of wood
and bit of common glass, and a cleft
stick TO pull up the mussels, In any
one of which he may find small for
tune. These mussel-pearls from the
Ythan and Teith and other Scottish
streams fetch good prices; one was
sold not long ago for fully $3.50. Pearls
are found In Canada mussels also,
some of them of considerable value
But in Canada there is little or no
private ownership of waters, so that
our pearl fishers run no risk, as do the
Scots, of being arrested for poaching.

@GHEEv MUCH USED IN EAST
concentfated Form of Butter Fat En-
ployed in Preparation OF Al
most All Dishea.

Chez is briefly described as clari-
fed butter. Cows or buffalo's milk IL
submitted to a process of churning
and boiling which yields a concentrate
ed form of butter fat considered to be
entirely free from curd, whey or wa
ter. This product keeps better than
ordinary butter, but has a taste not
usually appreciated by Europeans. Al
though commonly associated with the
diet of the British Indian, gnee is used
as well throughout the Red sea dis
trict by the Arabs, Soma1is, British
Indians, and other native elements OF
the population In a minor way ghee
is used incidentally and ceremonially ;
but its nrincinaI use is in the DreDara-
ton of food, and no native meal In
this part Of the world is truly relished
unless ghee is generously used in some
form or other. It is worked into the
dough for native bread and the bread
is fried in ghee; or IL ordinary bread
is used the pieces broken off to be
eaten are first dipped into a cup or
vessel of hot ghee. It is used in the
preparation of all meat dishes, and of
many vegetable dishes. Some natives.
particularly the Arabs, boil 1t with
milk and drink the mixture.
