TO BE OPFICKi PRESIDENT OF THE DAY, Mayor E.G.Caufield 'GRAND MARSHAL, . Geo. A. Harding ORATOR - - Col. W. H. Effinger READER OF THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE Miss Myrtle Buchanan - SHE NEVER BALKED AftAIN ar HiiWr Ku Flayad Bluff QtM a Contrary Mar. "Speaking about balky horses and -4L best way to cor them," said -Oeorg Sperry, "I can tell jam of a -feick that Stephen Lelaad played one aime and it worked like a charm yon -fallen all know Steve, course yoa do -to lives down to Bar Harbor. Well ifet'ieee it wai 13 years ago on the 90th day of Janoary. Yon remember the fteavy ileet storm same nutht Linnike rat married when all the tree looked so pretty after the storm. Ton remain ker Stephen he bad a wood lot out near the foot of Green mountain, when be ant hii wood winters. That year he ad aa handsome a pair of bay horses as tver rein drew over. The nigh one was s. all right in every particnlar, bnt the off - one had spells once in awhile when she would take matters in her own way and throw np her bead. Yon might put cooks in her ears, twist her tail, pound, whip, swear and rave as mnch as yon liked bat she would never move till ane r got ready. "One day I met Leland when he was - banliug ont the first load for the day. '' He told me bow she worked, and I told hiro then and there that if it was my Z borse I'd just onbitob the nigh one and J leave ber bitched on to the load in the - woods. They went into the Harbor with - she first load all right, bnt when the --tMcond load was piled on and under way things were different. At a certain - place in the road np goes that horse's . bead again. It was in just the same place where she balked before. Steve -wag mad as a batter. He took off his oat and hat He swore till the trees round him trembled. Next be took a sapling birch and whipped and ponnded till be was all tired ont. Then he sat down and rested. Then he thought he'd coax the critter, so he got a drink of water from a spring. She drank it Then he asked her to go, bnt not a mus cle would she move. Stephen fussed till bo became exhausted. "Then, as he told me afterward, he - took Sperry 's advice onbitcbed the nigb one, straddled her back and made .for home, leaving the ugly, contr'y thing alone in the woods, bitched to a tied with a cord and a half of green wood to anchor it. Pa never so mnch as looked round nor said aye, yes, or no, bnt made direct for home, potting op his burse and eating hie topper. He bad become so disgusted tbat he nearly dis- missed the thing from his mind. Tbat night began with a little fine rain. It was like a cold mint, and wherever it struck it frozo. Then it snowed and blowed for awhile, then again it turned to rain the queerest Etorm ever known on Mount Desert island. There was not a minute after 7 o'clock that evening .till daylight next morning but it snow- -ed or rained, and tbe wind was like a double edged razor 'long toward morn- , ing. Every tree was three times its proper size, and tbe ones left standing looked like tbe most beautiful plumes you ever see in your life. Lots of trees were broken to the ground. The tele graph wires were nearly an inch and a half in diameter, covered with solid toe. Little limbs of birch and maple were like branches of coraL -"In the morning Steve took ont the : When be got near the place where be left tbe horse and load, he was aston-4snedV- The old nag was there just where she stood all night Not tha sign of a (rack did shs make.

Straag H M7 Bmu, Tbr An M adaa ' r - ( lB WMplna-. Fashions change even la spiritual matters, and it baa been decreed that il la no longer subject of patnetio Inter est for women to weep. Those tender lines of Elngsley, Tor vara mutt work And women moat wp, And thara'a little to do, Bat taw to kmc - Though the harbor bar pa moanlaf, are still troe enough when appfied the men who go down to the sea to in ship and to the wives, daughters and sweethearts who wait and watoh for them.' But to the women in town and country the edict has gone forth, ' Weep no more." The day has pawed when the big, sad eyes, ready to send forth a flood of tears on the slightest provoca tion, can prove an effective weapon against refractory man. He knows too mnch about it It is useful to a woman as a relief to her nervous system any physician can tell her that it has it physiological benefits but masonlinity cannot be subdued by these moist meth ods. - When she begins to show the old fashioned signs of distress, man cruelly interferes: "Sow, don't cry. It makes your nose rod and your eyea ugly. It won't change me, " Or if he is especial ly coarse he will shout: "For heaven's sake, stop tbat crying game unless yon want to get rid of mel I won't stand it" A woman enjoys crying. The wise man is aware of this and is never heart less enough to attempt stopping a source of pleasure. But it is one more reason why he is not affected by ber tears. If tbey arise from bodily pain or intense mental suffering, he is all sympathy, but the hysterical overflow that can be produced on an instant's notice, that seems to be on tap because her dress doesn't fit in one particular or she laoks a dime to complete one especial pur chase does not now excite bis interest Wben a man cries, it is from the diaphragm, and the sobs give him ac tual physical pain. His sex fellows know this and can sympathize with ! him. But women cry from the chest or throat without the slightest effort, and men know that too. The old German proverb, "Nothing dries sooner than a tear, " most have been written by a man who had bad experience with the wiles of weeping women. There is a quaint old English poem tbat gives a list of the various evil spirits tbat infest this i j i i i . i wuria auu luoici ;njury opon more or f ,eH nnserving mortals, and concludes wuu iuo startling statement tout "a weeping woman with two black eyes is the wickedest devil of tbem alL" The principal point for the considera tion of woman is that when she must have ber "good, comfortable cry" she should take ber consolation privately. When not in the presence of nnsympa tbizing man, she may even forget to cry. and if she remembers there is a possibility that she will forget the cause of her laobrymose desires, and smiles may soon chase away the tears as tbey did in ohildisb years. - It the sex has re formed id tuld Respect, hian iMa! not olaim the credit It is a buiy, bustling age, in the cities at least, and there wo men have learned to be wise, earnest and strong, as factors in the daily life ef A world that demands the best efforts trem tbem.
