but Fatty Toad Now Fatty had
been long time without drink from
the river and he was very anxious to
get there. On the way. however, he
stopped under a leaf that had hung
on tho low branch OF an oak sprout
since last year. Here he turned over
fiat stone and under it he found

known the habits Of. Fatty for a long

''It wasn't what Fatty did for he is
too slow to do anything, it's what
someone else did. Fatty was not
thinking about anybody else In the
whole forest. He was having such a
good time with those Beetles that he
forgot all about what he was going to
do and who should come down the
path but Wiggier. the Black Snake.
He laughed to himself when he saw
Fatty. He thought it would save him
the trouble Of eating Beetles by just
swallowing Fatty whole. Well, when
he came within springing distance
Fatty saw him and his heart came
right UP in his mouth. There was pm

jump, and il ever that Fat Toad
jumped he did it then. But It was
useless for Wiggler grabbed him by

Despite the overpowering popu-
larity of the tweed suit there seems to
be no lot up in the demand for it..
For general utility there seems to be
nothing presented this season which
compares with tweed. The bright
colors seem to be giving way to the
mixtures and darker shades for sport
and country wear. Grays. tans.
browns and black and white mixtures
are popular just. now and one sees
these shades on the links more often
than the vivid hues.
This ,manishly tailored suit is dis
tinguished by the one button effect
on the coat. 1t is brown rough
tweed and is designed for sports and
general utility. Note the swagger ef-
feet obtained by the tailored shirt
with its soft collar and four-in-hand
tie. A touch of color may be added
to the costume by bright shade in
ones chin chin hat of felt like the enc
sh own. on the model.

and Mrs. Mark G.. Devereux of North
Castine, writes:
Germany is beautiful country;
everything neat and up-to- date; no
wooden houses, all stone, with red tile
roofs. They look handsome among the
trees. Hamburg is eighty miles up the
Elbe river and it is a pretty sail.
Everyone is well dressed and working
hard, and there is plenty to eat there.
The money is low. 1t was five marks
to the dollar before the war. and when
| was there it was $40 marks to the
dollar meal that would cost 50 in
America costs about so cents there.
Shoes, 81 per pair, and everything else
in proportion Nearly everyone speaks
good English.
Wilhelms- Haven is, or was. a sub
marine base, and all government prop

has a population of about 100000 1T is
a very neat, tidy city. There are
dozens of German war vessels tied up

"Hohenzollern," the most famous yacht
in the world She is all rust and! dirt

had a gang painting, nearly all of them

anything to do since the war No one
seems to have anything against the

good look at Heligoland as we passed
it on our way to the Elbe. The North

with masts still out of water and very

Mrs. M. H. Clement of Ellsworth,
died August 1, at the Eastern Maine
general hospital, Bangor, from in
juries received the same day while
faithfully discharging his duties as
fireman on the Maine Central rail-
road. He could have saved himself
by jumping from the train, but, with
the engineer, he remained at his
post, and his devotion to duty cost
him his life.
Mr.. Clement was born at Centre
Montville, but came to Ellsworth as
boy. Everybody knew him. He
had jolly disposition, and was
deeply attached to his home. His
future was becoming increasingly
promising, but suddenly and unex-
pectedly the sun of his life went
down, and he departed at the age Of
thirty years, four months, twenty-one
days, leaving a father and mother,
wife, Anna r., and two children,
Frances, aged five years, and Rich
ard, aged two years; and three
brothers, Grin, Roscoe and Clair.
Funeral services were conducted
at the home of his parents, August 3,
by Rev. George S. Brookes, pastor Of
the Congregational church. Lygonia
lodge, F. and A. NJ, took charge of
The interment at Woodbine cemetery.

ELLSWORTH SCHOOL NOTES.
(By Supt- Ell. e. Henry.)

At special meeting OF the school
board on Monday, Harold S. Webb
was elected as the head Of the COM
mercial department of the high
school, and Pearl e. Johnson to
teach agriculture and chemistry.
Mr.. Johnson is also well fitted to
coach athletics man of whom the
school has long been in need. Both
of these men are strongly recon-
mended for their respective posi-
tions. We have every reason to pre-
dict a prosperous year for the Ellis
worth high school.
If some young lady student wishes
place to do little work in eX-
change for her board during the COM
ing school year, she may find place
to do so by communicating at once
with the superintendent. A gentle
man also wishes young man stu
dent as a companion, and the super
intendent will be glad to receive the
application of some young man who
is in need of home while attend
ing school.

Back and Got His Passengers.
A Ford car driven by Edward Wis
we'll, jr., of Machias, took a nose
dive from the Waukeag ferry scow
one day last week. The car had
been driven onto the scow on the
Hancock side, when the driver, in
stead of pressing thte foot-brake, put
his foot on the accelerator by mis-
take, and the car plunged over the
outer end of the scow into fifteen
feet of water.
In the back seat of the car were
Mrs. Wiswell and a cousin, Mrs.
Hovey Munson, also of Machias. Mr..
Wiswell was first to come to the sur
face. CHANGING about and not see
ing the ladies, with rare presence OF
mind he dove back to the car, and
came to the surface with the two
women
The three were hauled out by men
on the boat, and later the car was
hauled out. with slight damage.
