The Story Of Annie Laurie.

I was raised on the next farm 70 Mr..
Laurie. Annie Laurie's father. Twas
personally acquainted with both her
and her father. and also the author Of
the song. Knowing the facts, have
been requested by my friends to give
the benefit of my knowledge, which l
have consented to do. Annie Laurie
was born in 1897, and was about seven
teen years old when the incident oc-
CURED which gives rise to the song bear
ing her name. James Laurie. Annie's
father. was q farmer who lived and
owned a large farm called ''Tharagles-
town." in Dumfriesshire, Scotland.
He hired q great deal of help. and
among those employed was a man by
the name of Wallace to act as foreman.
and while in his employ Mr.. Wallace
fell in love with Annie Laurie. which
fact her father soon learned and forth
with discharged him. He went to his
home, which was in Maxwelton, and
was taken sick the night he reached
there. and the next morning when
Annie Laurie heard Of it she came to
his bedside and waited on him till he
died. and on his death-bed he COM
posed the song.-Geneseo IN ~ Re

THE MODERN GREEKS.

a People with . Nigh Repatatlo0 1os
Ffasality and Temperance.
The Greeks are the most frugal and
temperate people Of Europe. Gluttony
and drunkenness are rare vices among
them. Their diet is such as it was two
thousand years ago. They eat little
meat; barly bread, goats cheese, or
black dried olives and wine make up q
bountiful repast. Bread and wine, or
bread and leeks, form many q mans
dinner. Our agoyiatis munched raw
beans with evident relish as his lunch
con. Maize is cultivated in some
parts Of the country, and is imported
from Italy. but I never saw it properly
treated-it Is generally eaten half
cooked. A large number OF herbs are
boiled as ''greens" and used as salads.
Salt fish are prepared in
some districts. Selt is a gov
ernment monopoly and is very brown.
Olive oil serves as butter. cream. lard
and suet. The food is generally too
oily for an American. Honey is often
used (as in ancient times) instead of
sugar. Sweet milk is little used. but
many preparations Of curds arc COM
mon; curds and sugar (yaurti) are
made into a toothsome dish. There
are many varieties of Greek wine, but
almost all are strong and fiery, and
are tempered with water when they
are drank. Wine costs only q trile
(about nine cents per quart Of excel
ent quality), but is seldom taken in ex-
cess.
But the Greeks are not without their
1ainties. Rice Is much used with meat
gravy, making an excellent pilafY.
Chopped meat il rolled into croquettes,
wrapped in young vine leaves, and
fried. The best olives are much richer
and higher-havored than those sold in
America Rich sweetmeats are pre-
pared from ounces and other fruit
The offer Of some sweetmeats is often
among the first attentions paid to q
guest A delightful drink is made
from the milk Of the green almond.
The rose-navored lukumi is hardly
by any OF our confectionery.
In this connection. perhaps I should
mention the Greek tobacco. which is
cheap and mild and has a fine favor.
