A WEEK.
Editor Wants TO Be a Living
Example Of Temperance in
All Things

Claremont, n. H.. April ss.A newspap-
ar publisher who lives on sixty-flve cents
"A week i'm order 10 be a living example or
Temperance i'm all things the doctrine
he breaches IN his paper and In public
places-is Samuel Henry Story, owner of
the Narrative.
lie is regarded here as n very inteli-
gent although eccentric man, and Is re-
spected by the townspeoplc. Mr.. Story's
menu is
Thirty-six graham biscuits, Twenty-Five
cents; one pound OF pork, twelve cents:
scraps, five cents; sugar, five and one
half cents; cheese, ten cents; onc-quar-
ter pound of ginger, which lasts month;
twenty cents worth of chocolate a
month; Kerosene oil, one gallon lasts three
months.
He does not drink tea, coffee or milk
but occasionally makes some chocolate or
ginger tea. For luxuries he frequently
buys apples and lemons. His variety OF
diet is between the pork and scraps, US
ing them alternately.
Politics was not meddled with by Mr..
Story until sixteen years ago. when he
began 10 support the prohibition party
and 10 protest against the unlimited
coinage OF drunlkards."
He sells his paper himself. and some of
hts best patrons are found In saloons.
many OF whose customers are regular
purchasers OF his paper. He tells his pur-
chasers the contents OF his paper before
they buy. and exemplihes In words the
good work he is trying TO accomplish, and
his principal ambition is to see the liquor
traffic stopped.
THE champion OF any good and just
cause should not be despised," Is COM
mon quotation from him when any rude
person tries To ridlcule him.
Such actions In no way turn him from
| his cause, and In well chosen words he
makes the offending person feel his own
| insignifcance, and aften he buys Narra-
| tive TO make amends.
| Not only Is Mr.. Story eccentric In this.
but in many other lines OF business. For
payment for his laundry he walks six
miles To South Cornish and works there
saving and chopping wood or doing other
chores, returning home on foot, IL often
being midnight when he returns.
Another eccentricity OF his Is woman
