by Berry & Lincoln, and careful
inquiry has fully confirmed this con-
clusion.
All the known facts make it prob
able that the license was procured to
enable the firm to retail the liquors
which they had in stock. We may ac-
cept this theory without rejecting in
the slightest degree upon the charac-
ter of Lincoln. In a community in
which liquor drinking was practically
universal, at a time when whisky was
as legitimate an article of merchan-
disc as coffee or calico-when no fam
lily was without a jug-when the min
lister of the gospel could take his
dram" without any breach of propri-
ety-it is not surprising that a repu-
table young man should have been
found selling whisky.
Possibly because harboring foolish
fear of doing an injury to his repu
tation. Lincoln's biographers have said
practically nothing upon the subject;
but the facts are too interesting to
be suppressed, even if the suppression
of any facts concerning Lincoln were
justifable.
In the days when Lincoln kept
grocery, liquor was sold at all gro
ceries; but it could not be lawfully
sold in a less quantity than one quart
rigidly observed, and it was the Gus
tom of storekeepers to set up the
drinks to their patrons. Each of the
three groceries which Berry & Lin
coin acquired had the usual supply of
liquors, and the combined stock must
have amounted almost TO a super
abundance. 1t was only natural and
only a stroke of business, that they
should seek a way to dispose of the
surplus quickly and profitably-an end
which could be best accomplished by
selling it over the counter by the
glass. To lawfully do this required a
tavern license; and it is a warrantable
conclusion that such was the chief
aim of Berry & Lincoln in procuring
a franchise CT this character We are
fortified in this conclusion by the coin
cidence that three other groceries of
New Salem-William Clary, Henry Sin
coe and George Warburton-were
among those who took out tavern Ii
censes. To secure the lawful privilege
of selling whisky by the dram" was
no doubt their purpose; for their
"taverns'' were as mythical as the inn
of Berry & Lincoln.

ADVANTAGE OF A NOTE BOOK.

An advantage in using note book
and pencil is that many jobs which
are necessary, but would be forgotten
at the opportune time. are remembered
and cared for. Everything that should
be done is noted down. a few minutes
in looking over the book each morn
ing, will enable one to determine what
is best to be done on that particular
day, be it wet or dry. OF course the
important jobs which naturally come
with the season do not go on this
book. Nobody is likely to forget to
cut his grass or harvest his oats, but
it is the countless little things which
so many Of us allow to go undOne.
