Had to Judge by the Smell

Near Vineland, ~ j., there lived a
German farmer who brewed his own
beer, the superiority of which he was
continually proclaiming. though no
other person ever enjoyed an oppor-
tunity of testing its merits, according
to a writer in Lippincotts.
A young neighbor made a wager
that he could trick the farmer into
giving him a taste of the much vaunt-
ed drink.
The youth visited the German one
Sunday afternoon and the converse
ton was deity steered around to
home brewed beer.
The young man boasted that his
father hrewed beer that could not be
equalled.
The farmer at once vehemently or
