AN ANCIENT CHURCH.
A Beverly CMnss.) Structure Nearly Two
Centuries Old.

The remodeled Second church, that Of
the Congregational society, at North
Beverly, Mass, is 1S4 years old and is
the first and only house of worship the
society has ever had. The Second parish
of Beverly is one of the old societies of
the county. When incorporated by the
general court in 1918, it was as the
"precinct Of Salem and Beverly. OBJ
lection has been made on the part of
certain Beverly people to the separation
of the parish.
The first meeting toward forming the
society was held in November, 1913,
and a committee appointed, AT later
meeting the sum Of $3.50 was raised to-
ward building a meeting house. The
house was built and finished and dedi-
Gated the following year.
Originally it was 30 feet by 40 In
1771 porch was added to the front end
by Caleb Dodge at his own expense. In
1851 a steeple was built and 400
pound bell was purchased Two years
later Robert Hooper gave bell to the
church. The house was placed ON Its
present site in 1891 when it was en-
laIged and thoroughly remodeled
When General Gage was stationed at
Danvers and lived in the Collins house,
at the time he sent his messenger down
to Salem to terminate the sitting Of the
assembly because it was about to form a
provincial congress, he attended church
in the North Beverly house of worship.
For many years the ceiling was not
plastered. but later some of the wealthy
members had the spaces over their own
pews plastelsd at their own expense,
When Robert Hooper gave the church
the bell, he was given a pew In the
church, and the parish voted tc have il
plastered overhead at the expense Of the
society. Boston Herald.

DRINKS OF OUR FORBEARS.
They Were Fastidious In Qdality, Though
They Liked Quantity.


Among the popular drinks were mad
dog and dragon s milk. Their main con-
stituent was ale Of different degrees Of
age and strength favored with ginger
and similar hot stuff Mad dog was the
stronger Of the two 1t was popular
stamp, who usually wanted something
to grip their threats and put fire into
their eyes. Topers owe great deal to
this same mad dog. He it was that in
troduced the custom, popular in other
lands besides England, of easing the eff
fects of overindulgence by taking "a
hair of the dog that bit you. I"
The fastidious Briton of the olden
times was also mighty hard to please as
to the qualities of wine. We find record
of his nicely in this regard as far back
as the twelfth century An old manu-
script in the British museum tells US
what wine was most priced; cit should
be clear like the tears of a penitent, SO
that a man may see distinctly to the
bottom of his glass; its color should
represent the greenness of a buffalo S
horn; when drunk, it should descend
impetuously like thunder; sweet tast
ed, like an almond; creeping like a
squirrel; leaping like a roebuck; strong
like the building of Cistercian monas-
terry; glittering like spark of fire; sub
tie like the logic Of the schools of Paris;
delicate as fine silk, and colder than
crystal "
Ii the Englishman of that day was
able to procure this celestial liquor, he
was more fortunate than recent topers
and tipplers have been in the triune
kingdom. All modern travellers can tes-
tify that no such wine is to be had now,
either in dear old London" or else
where on the island. Furthermore, the
fancy beverages of the Elizabethan per-
iod have disappeared and left not a rack
behind, unless we dignity such wishy
washy stuff as claret punch, which holds
the place of honor in most metropolitan
barrooms, and port negus, which still
fingers in the sickroom, by calling
them weak kneed descendants Of the
sturdy, uncompromising beverages of
old. Chicago Tim es- Herald.

Pyramid Piio Cure Cures Plies Quick-
Iy, PainiessIy, without Danger.

People go along for years suffering
with piles. Then try this. and that and
the other thing; from carrying a buck
eye to getting treatment from a ply
sician. They obtain temporary relief,
maybe, but they are never quite cured.
little strain in lifting, excessive ia
tigue, little constipation or a little
diarrhoea and the piles come back.
They don't seem to amount to much,
but they Danish sleep and appetite. No
position is comfortable. There is in
tense local pain and that dreadful feel
ing of weight in the perineum.
Maybe in the early stages some of
the many salves Oil sale will afford
temporary relief. If the case is of long
standing there is only one speedy and
sure remedy. 1t is Pyramid Pile Cure.
Even in light cases It is the safest thing
to use. Other applications may cure
and may not. Pyramid Cure is always
certain, always reliable and always
brings comfort at once. Its prompt use
saves months of severe suffering. In ex-
treme cases it will save surgical opera
tions and their attendant dangers and
discomforts.
1t is better than the knife. Will cure
easier, quicker and safer. Thousands
have used it. Thousands have been
cured by 1t.
The cost is trifiing compared with
what it does. The price is so cents.
Most anybody would gladly pay ten
dollars to be rid of piles.
