Maine Gossip
Counting in 1859


When our grandsire. Thomas Candy,
Went counting Sarah Jcrvis,
He had no other way to go.
Than put his legs in service.
The old York Road he gaify strobe.
To where a hickory stood.
And there he took an Indian trail.
Six miles or more of wood.
A sharp-eyed lynx crouched overhead
A brown bear Skulked nearby,
An eagle screamed on high.
But Thomas had no thought of fear;
And soon some curling smoke
Showed where the Jervis cabin stood,
Beneath spreading oak.
Eight miles he'd come DER hill and
vale.
1t really seemed like four.
When at his rap the waiting maid
Threw back the cottage door.
And what they did and what they said,
And what that day befcll.
We do not know. We only guess
That most young folks can tell.
At nine o'clock he started back,
And Sarah. calling Rover,
Walked with him to the clearing s
Their "good-byes" soon were over.
The homeward trip seemed four miles
Than going the other way.
At last he reached his unclcs mill
The end of a perfect day.

Why Paris Dresses
Cost Much Money

Paris, Dec. 1S.-"Why do women's
dresses cost so much?" This eternal
mans question was put to Madame
Jeanne Paquin. and her cryptic answer
was: "They don't"
Fpr 33 years Madame Paquin has
been making dresses in Paris for the
wealthy from all parts of the world.
1t may be that her idea of what is cX-
pensive has been influenced by the
class Of trade which automobiles up
to her doors. but nevertheless her
answer was the sincere express
sion of business woman. For in
the next breath she said: ''Or rather,
dresses do not cost the buyer so much,
when it is considered what they cost
the producer"
Madame Paquin employees about 900
people, and turns out 1000 dresses a
year. About % out Of every hundred
of her gowns have to be discarded be-
cause they are not properly made. This
accounts in part for the high cost of
those that are marketed.
ITO obtain an art producer, there
must be waste" Madame Paquin ex-
planned. "A painter may make many
sketches before he finally reaches the
creation that is called art. 1t is the
same way with dresses. employ
people who do nothing but sit around
and criticize our dresses, and if a
given dress doesn't satisfy them. a
new one must be made for the client.
These people must be paid. Some of
them get a hundred thousand francs
a year. There are only a few people
who can engage in the profession of
heautifying women with clothes. These
few must be paid accordingly"
women object to the high cost as
much as men, 1t is mistake to think
women like to pay high prices for
their dresses. You can tell all the
husbands that women dispute their
bills to the last penny"
How much does it cost to dress a
quin was asked.
There were many women who spent
a hundred thousand francs a year be-
fore the war on their dresses and if
they did this now their bills would
run to half million" said Madame
Paquin.
But I believe, for the average
woman who can afford to dress in
such houses as mine. that so thousand
francs year would do it. giving her
about Is dresses year. This would
give her in each season about four
dresses. one for the street. one for sport
one for evening and one for afternoon
receptions. Add what is necessary for
cloaks, furs. hats. shoes, umbrellas
and underclothing and the total would
come to about $4,000 in American
money.

). GOOD RECOMMENDATIONS

Good recommendations, and this
is the season for public officials from
mayor to President to give express
sion to them, are in one respect like
good resolutions, they are of no util-
ity unless put into effect.
We are reminded of this with re-
spect to several suggestions in Mayor
McLean's inaugural. There was for
instance, what he had to say about
e-guarding City Hall. Our readers
are aware that the Journal has long
been convinced the present condi-
tons constitute menace to the pub
lie. We are glad that Mayor Nc
Lean is to endeavor to have the
building properly safe-guarded.
With all of us he recognizes the
congested condition of Water street
and hopes some relief may be OBJ
tanned through widening Commercial
street. He also recognizes the needs
OF those who walk and it is possible
some good may come from a more
uSAAlNC pOliCy VI
of portions of our sidewalks. We hope
the mayor will try it out.
Another suggestion pertains to
traffic conditions at the top Of Rines
Hill and the need of a sidewalk con-
tinued from the east side of Gage
street down the hill to Water street.
Anyone witnessing the antics of
Automobiles on a recent night when
sleet had rendered the hill so slippery
4 that many autos could not climb it
and those that went down in many in
stances did so in hair lifting swirls
and glides, must have recognized the
need of better safeguards on the
east line of the street. 1t was then
easy to understand how by reason of
little carelessness on the part of a

TELLTALE SYMPTOMS OF
WOMAN'S ILLS

Every woman who suffers from
backache, headaches, dragging down
pains, nervousness, Irregularities,
displacements, irritability, or de-
spondency should recognize in such
symptoms some arrangement of her
system which should have attention
before some more serious ailment de-
velops. These conditions are often
evidenced by sallow complexion,
dark circles under the eyes, lassi-
tude and sleeplessness. For nearly
fifty years LYDIA E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound has been pre-emi-
nently successful in overcoming such
conditions, and it is now recognized
everywhere as the standard remedy
for woman's ills.-Ady.
