There Is curious story about some native
wines which arc extensively advertised nowa-
days. and have only recently been put upon
the market. DR.. Underhili. The well-known
grape e-grower Of Crotoa Point. died in 1871.
Some Of his heirs entertained temperance
views Of such extreme kind, that they were
unwilling to alloy the stock Of wines then on
hand to be sold or any more to be made.
The grapes have sometimes been sent to
market, and sometimes left to decay upon
the vines. 1t IS only now that The other heirs
have succeeded in arranging for a settlement
OF the estate and the sals of the wines on
hand. Among these is a wine of the vintage
Of 1864, described as "Sweet Union Port"
than any other European wine. and being
wholly unlike any other wine Of American
growth. Its purity, age and mellowncss are
remarkable. and both physicians and wine
tancicrs have a special interest in it as tho
Oldest native wine now accessible in any con-
hands Of the well-known wholesale grocery

me ReIIerrd in ImmortnIitr.

Harper's Weekly
In Mr.. Bryant's poem, The Flood OF
Years" which was first published two or
three years since, are these lines:
SO they pass
From stare to stage along the shining c0vrse
OF that fair river, ~broadened like n sea.
As its smooth eddies curl along their way,
They bring old lends together; hands are
clasped
In jey u~nspeakable; the mothers arms
Again are folded round the child she loved
And lost. Id so. ows are forgotten now,
Or but remembered to make sweet the hour
That everpays them; wounded hearts that
Or broke are healed forever.
A gentleman who had been sorely bt.
resved was so struck by the unquestien.
ing faith in Immortality here expressed,
that he wrote to Mr.. Bryant, asking II
the lines were to be understood as q
statement Of his own belief. Mr.. Bry.
ant instantly replied in the following
note, which has not been published be-
fore, and which has a peculiar interest
at this time:
CUAGrSGToS, Mass, August 10. 1916.
DEAR SIR Certainly | believe ell that
is said in the lines you quoted. III had
not [ could not have written them. |
believe in the everlasting life of the soul;
aud it seems to me that Immortality
would be but az imperfect gift without
the recognition in the life to come OF
those who are dear to us here.
Yours truly, W.. C. BRYANT.

The greater need was arms and means.
