'l'he shining space of the Sceond beach, or
Fishing Beach, as it was usually known, was
tin-onged with groups of people that wild,

they were made of old boat, neatly thatched, ,

three of the men, while many of the women
sobbed aloud.
Mr. Leyden, as the throng began to dis-
pe1se, went to his own home and took his
breakfast The alarm that Jim Bracken and
his boat were lost had spread so quickly that
scarcely a soul 1n town had bakers 3‘ 3
but gathered with the crowd on the beach
without waiting for anything else.
After his meal was over, Mr. L'cyden
. started out for Susan Bracken‘s cottage. It
was a much longer road to go by the beach
than directly across, but by the beach he
went, that he might ask the boys who were
there as watchers whether anything had been
seen yet. Some way he could not give up
hope. But not so much as a drift of sea-
weed had been flung ashore; not so much

“ If there’ 8 anything, it’ll come when the
tide gets high, alOng near noon.” said young
Andy Loop, old Peter’s son. “The tide
hasn t fair set in .yet, but it'll wash all as
comes 11p, air, when it ebbs.”
“ Never’ll wash Jim Bracken up on these
sands. He was too for Out," said another.-
“No, ” chimed' in a third lad. “ but we'll
stay till the cbbs, all the same and watch."
“It does seem a hopelem case.” scid Mr.
Leyden. Ho tuttied reluctantly away, and
walked over toward Bracken’ s cottage.
Mr. Leyden had not been long in the
place, and never had filled at Sus ,1 {thousc

in church sometimes. The cottage had been

Scarcely nine people out of ten at Port

"In ~110-‘Oount1’y‘I has high painting
been brought to‘ such a high degree of
art as in the United States.” a sign
painter said proudly. "‘ln'Europe let-
tcrin‘g is a trade, audit matters little how
a. sign looks, as long as it is readable
' and conspicuous; but here lettering is
an art, and no work will be weeptod un-
less it is "attrcictivc and graceful. And
the difiiculty consists 1101: m overloading
the signs with ornaments, but 1n making
the piainest letters handsome and well
proportioned”
The knight of the brush took up a
well-'wOrn and stained volume containing
models of letters, and showing the re-
porter two. plain block letter plphabets
c6ht1huc’d:"Noticc-thc difi'cr'cnce be-
twebn these tw'o alphabets. They are of
the same kind, but the one is in the
New York style and the other in the
Boston style. I consider the format by
far the prettier of the two. You may
judge by this how different the same lot-
ter may be made to appear. The princi-
pal difilculty for beginners consists in
mspacing the letters properly. Some
letters must be made cempkrctively nar-
row in one case, and wide in another.
The space between some letters must also
be often less than others. Thus, if L
cndTaro madeasfar apartasthcother
letters of a. word, there will appear to be
too much space betwlacn time. When
these two letters Occur in the middle of a '
word, therefore, the spaces between the
other letters have to increase gradually
in width until the It and T are reached.
The L must then be made very narrow;
the T must be placed . very close to the
LrThe spaces between the following
letters gradually decrease in width
toward the end of the word. When the
sign is finished there is no break in the
word, and looks even and well-propor-
tioned Again, when a sign contains
several lines, the letters of the bottom
line must be rather large, or the sigr
will look topheavy.
“ A Sign painter should therefore have
a good eye. He must also be a good
colorist, in order to :use_ tints that will
harmonize well. For instancp, the body
of a letter should be made of a color con-
ground, while the shading should be of a
neutral tint, harmonizing with both.
You see that in painting even the plcinest
signs much artistic skill may be brought
into play.
“The most difficult signs to make, as
fat as technique is concerned, are the
fine gold and silver leaf signs on glass.
Much care is required‘in making the size
for fastening the leaf to-the glass. If it
istoothick the lecfwill look dulL‘cndif
it is too thin it will not stick. The letters
have to be backed with asphaltum var-

proof, and they may be shaded and orna-

And over all their ruggedness
Where bands primeval clung,

Her tapestries has 111mg.

With

O’erlooliingcll the dell

To watch for and foretell;
The faithful guardian we hail

He’ll keep intruders far away,
And bid none enter here,
Without the pass-word well explained,
And all the signals clear;
Even the iron horse must salute
As he is drawing near.
This which you now behold with joy
Is sparkling water poured
From out the chalice of the King
In heaven and earth adored;
An element of purity
‘ Alike at 116011 or ford.
As thus you see its countless drops
Unite and blend in one,
So an unrul‘fled stream may we,

From sight of star or sun.

Through faith has here removed ;
And BIDGEFIELD crossing o’er the hills,
Her loyalty has proved.
CARSWELL from Milford ioun brings up
The salt breath of the sea,
Her very name a. bugle note
Forlovc and purity.
Firm as the granite of her heights,

Refreshing far and wide.

Magnetic, electric. eloquent Blaine,
Whose record they tell us bears not a stain
That his friends shall not make perfectly plain
And pure as a lily cup after a. rain,
Shall we vote for this mighty man of Maine?
Shall we vote for the chief of the Empire state
Who rose irom obscurity but of'late,
And who signally honored by singular Fate,
Is suddenly numbered among the great,
For him with the followers that 011 111m wait,

Alas for these men am they all ignore

For a settlement on this western shore. ..
Shall a man receive from the Law’s pure hand,
A license his brother’s life to brand,
And his soul on the reefs of hell to strand? '

A man with spirit all intent

Ah, such we need for a President.
Imagine it friends if your mind shall date

A “SON” IN THE PRESIDENTIAL CHAIR.
Well, courage; a. prophecy here I make,
This thought of ours without any mistake,
Shall speedily form and substance take.
l’erchance my fancy plays mo tricks,
But the time for a TEMPERANCE ruleI fix
At the good year 1896.
In 1892
The scheme will be nearly cairied through,
But of needed votes will lack a few. q
Four years later the: great condition,
01 reaching the goal of high ambition,
Will be devotion to PROHIBITION.
And an outraged people will rise at last,
And while the rum power stands aghast,
Will an overwhelming ballot cast;
Cast for the man whose honest taco,
Is firmly set, through» heavenly grace,
The demon’s forces to displace.
Whose glowing mind and heart sincere,
In thrusting out a too so drear,
Shall know no pity and no fear.
Then, then shall dawn the gracious hour,
When o’er our land, the truth :shcll flower,
And righteousness receive its dower
From hands of justice and of power.
Then shall our star in glory gleam,
The nation triumph in its beam;
The hideous past a nightmare seem
That‘s passed to beauteous, radiant dream,
Speed on, speed on, O blessed day ;
We’ll help thee forward as we may,
For thee we’ll work, for thee we’ll pray.
We hail e’en now the dawning ray,
0 basic to meet us, glorious day.

ALMOST our OF THE WORLD.
Away 011‘ the coast of Maine, outside
the cordon of rocky isles thgtstretob like
a protecting chain between the Atlantic
and Penobsoot Bay, exposed to the cease-
less beat of the waves and to the fury of
every storm, is the oddest. lonesomest,
and most primitive spot on the American
coast, the Isle 1111 Hunt. This name was
given to it by. one of the early French
voyagers, who thought Lofty Island or
Isle of Weight 9. most appropriate appel-
lation for the sea-girt rock, whose per-
pendicular sides rise immediately from
the water, with scarcely a break in their
monotony for a bit of beach. The island
prdper, with eight or ten smaller com-
panions, now composes a town. having
been set of from Deer Isle m 1874. All
the islands together have an area of 3,000
acres, and about 200 people live on them.
They all live by the sea, directly or in-
directly, and their life is but a dull ex.
istcncc. Anthony Merchant first settled
in one of the group, which now bears
his name, in 1772, and since then the
hamlet of fishers has gfown by twos and
threes, painfully slowly. There is no
Post Ofiice, no minister, no lawyer, and
no doctor. If anybody is sick, or wants
any red tape, or an expected letter, he
must take a. sailboat and go to Door
Island or to Rockland, the journey be-
ing nearly always rough and often im-
possible.
On thc summit of the 0113's is a great
level plot, half sheep pasture and half
blueberry bog, and there is grown the
best mutton and wool in Maine, and
there, too, is the blueberry pickers
paradise, whole schooner loads of people
often going in summer from the main
land to gather the berries. There was
an attempt made years ago by a Georgia
gentleman to make Isle on Heat a great
summer resort, and he put all his own
money and that of some other persons
into the scheme. A splendid pavilion
for concerts and dancing was built, and
and roads along the cliffs constructed at
great expense. Then, just as the plans
were ready for a great hotel, the finance
dcpmtment of that association collapsed,
and with it the whole scheme. That was
years ago, before" the expressive term
"crank” wcson: the boards. The natives
used the roads for sheep paths, and
dried nets on the hard-pine floor of the
pavilion.
The fishers are as simple as the old Ar-
csdians, of whom it is written:
“ Neither looks bad they to their doors,
not bars to their windows." Not many
of them ever seen the mainland, and
scarcely any of them know what a city is
like. Only a month ago the first horse
ever landed on the island was brought
there, and a good half of the simple folk
gazed then for the first time upon a
member of the equine species. No
steamer ever lands there, and in all
probability the only glimpses of good-
sized steam craft the islanders ever get is
when, on clear days, they see through a
glass passing vessels of the International
and Boston and Bangor lines.
