When Mrs Samuel Carey of East
Brunswick was a child II years old
her mother gave her a gold ring. 1t
was purposely little large so that she
might not outgrow it. For three
years she kept it, and then, to her
distress, it was lost. This was thirty
five years ago, and she lived then
where she does now. The other day
her husband returning to the house
saw something in the dirt in the drive
way, which looked as if it might be a
little washer He picked it up and il
proved to be a small gold ring. He
did not know anything of the one that
his wife had lost years before they
were married, but when he carried il
into the house and asked if anyone
had lost a ring she said that she had
lost one 80 years ago. On examination,
to her surprise and wonder this proved
the very same one, with her name en-
graved inside. and it was as perfect as
those years, instead of lying in the
driveway, as it must, where teams in
Vulnerable had passed over it.

WINTHROP
Thursday evening, there was a soc
ia1 dance at Town hall. Music was
furnished by the Chrome brothers. Be-
fore the dance began, a short concert
was given by these strolling musicians,
which was heartily enjoyed. The play
ing of the blind Italian upon the violin
is especially admired by the people here,
and his limitations of various animals.
etc, are extremely interesting.-At the
Congregational vestry, Thursday night,
a good time was enjoyed. A shadow
play was the particular feature of the
evening. -MelroSe Davies who graduated
from Wesleyan university last summer,
has gone to Vermont to teach.-In dis
cussing the question in a store tho
other evening, it was decided that there
isn't fourth of the drunkenness in
Winthrop that there was fifteen years
ago. We would like to hear from other
country towns in Maine on this point.
A Sunday crusade is being talked
here. A day or two ago Mrs. Bailey
and the Rev. sylvester Hooper waited
upon Druggist Fred S. Jackson at his
store, to urge him to close on the Lord
day. A circular containing the Maine
Sunday statutes was received by Mr.
jackson some time ago but as he had
been keeping open only an hour or two
during the forenoon when the Sunday
papers came in, he was not inclined to
believe that any one would seriously
object. as he considers that the hand
ling of the Sunday papers has now come
to he work of necessity, and says he
believes that it is unjust to apply the
law to him unless it is applied equally
to the hotel the livery stables, and
the boats on the lake. Whether Mr.
Jackson will decide to close or to risk
the law is not yet known.
