Persian way of Eating watermelon

'The ordinary Persian bill of fare
sounds something like the banquets de-
scribed in fairy tales said a man who
has spent some time in the orient
while travelling in that country |
found that the best overture to a way
side repast is a watermelon, not cut
in slices, as is done in this country,
but eaten like an egg, one end being
cut off and the contents eaten with a
wooden spoon, the roseate fluid trio
king all the time to the bottom and af-
fording a fragrant drink when the first
course is over"

Harry Graham, clever young

has written some satirical verse,
and published it in book form
under the title misrepresentation
Men" Two ofthe chest stanzars, -
according TO the London Specta-
tor, are those describing our Presi-
dents daily life:
AT 6 a. m. he shoots bear,
At he schools FESTIVE horse,
From 10 to he takes the air
He doesn't take it all of course);
And then at 5 o'clock maybe,
Some colored man drops in to tea.
At intervals throughout the day
He sprints around the house, or if,
His residence is Oyster Bay,
He races up and down the cliff;
While sesgulls scream about his legs,
Or hasten home to hide their eggs.

The First Cotton Mill.

From the first cotton mill in
America to goth century model
machinery shop marks the in-
dustrial evolution in the city of
Beverly. The first cotton mill
was established ill 1856, the
Cabots, Beverly merchants, and
Capt. Moses Brown being among
the leading promoters. The
state then allowed the projectors
to run a lottery to help raise
funds for the mill, it being re-
garded as an institution for the
public welfare, as it would give
employment to many. The mill
was driven by horse power,
which is quite in contrast to the
new million dollar plant which is
to be operated by electricity. Te
drive the new plant electricity
will be generated through tur.
b1neS connected With two boilers,
aggregating 700 horse power,
This great contrast must appea,
more or less to the imagination
OF the citi ems, and inspire then
them with hope of future great
ness. Before the installation O
this plant the city was making
some strides forward in the race
for Industrial honors, but it wa!
also a matter f prime necessity
to cater to the colony along the
North Shore, and this part of th,
city's resources was almost a
great as its industrial class. Nov
all is changed. The cottager'
are relatively unimportant, ane
when Beverly is referred to il
the future, it must be spoken o
as city of business Importance
We believe that it will outstri]
its neighbor on the other side o
the harbor in few decades.
