\ Bangor man tells the Netrs Of queer
while travelling through the country BY
carriage. He was homeward bound, but
just a. nightfall. while In the western part
of Hampton, he was caught in furious
rain storm and applied at farmhouse for
shelter for himself and horse The house
reminded the traveller Of the homestead
described in the song
There's an old fashioned house
on an old IA shioned hill,
And an old fashioned couple living there.
The lantern which the accommodating
farmer brought to light the way to the
stable was square, and made entirely Of
tin, with door punched full OF holes
through which the faint light of tsllow
candle tlickered dimly. There were no
stoves in the house, all cooking being
done over an open fire on brick hearth
and in a brick oven.
The farmer owned no lamps. His
father had never burned any oil. either
sperm or petroleum. Candles had been
good enough for him, and they answered
very well the purposes Of his son. The
son was IS years old, he said, and he had
always lived on this farm, where there
were no horses-only mule and steer
being used for draft purposes, and where
the agricultural implements and all other
vehicles and appliances were home made
aud very clumsy.
The farmer had never been more than
40 miles from home, he said, and had
never rode in the cars or on a STEAMBOAT
He wore an old army coat, homespun
trousers, a sheepskin vest and Leavy cow
hide boots. He seemed perfectly happy,
smoking his orn.cob pipe beside the open
fire, and his wife was the picture of con-
tentment.
Altogether it was vivid reproduction
or rather a remarkable survival, Of the
New England life Of fifty years ago, and
such scene of peace and simplicity as
Denman Thompson can never hope to
present in his stage mimicry of THE Old
Homestead"

BEER AND LIGHT WINES,
Their Effects are as BanefuI as the

The use Of beer and light wines does
not wean men from the use Of stronger

consumption Of the latter in beer hrtpk-

Another fallacy is that intemperancs
