Cost of Living 200 Years Ago.

From the Harvard Alumni Bulletin.
There is no new thing under the

Much has been heard in recent
years of the high cost of living
The following extracts are from the
Corporation Records of Harvard Col

pusion from Paradise, frequently
complained of the high cost of fig
leaves:

Ask Your Uncle Sam?
From Farm and Fireside.


At the United States department
OF agriculture in Washington almost
any question will be answered by ex-
perts free of charge. In such cases
not even a stamp is required for re-
ply. They will examine diseased
plants and tell what the remedy is,
if there is one. Someone has said
that the way to tell a toadstool from
a mushroom is to eat tiff you die
it's a toadstool; but these experts
will save you the trouble of dying,
and tell you in case of doubt, if you
will send them the specimen.
The number of things an observant
farmer-especially a young one
wants to know is simply illimitable.
And he can be sure if there is an an
swer it will be sent him. The coun-
try teacher who wants to ruralize her
rural school might well ask for these
problems to be brought to the school
and sent thence to the experts. Such
a policy will do much to bring the
government closer to the farms, and
to make the pupils feel that it is
really their government.

What a burrp BE Was In

He jumped into his motor car
And opened UP the gas;
He hadn't journeyed very far
Before he tried to pass
Some one who drove buzzng six,
And though at last he did,
He barely missed pile of bricks
When he began to skid
He almost ran woman down.
But faster still he flew;
He struck the centre of the town
While doing "thirty-two"
A horse took fright and ran away
When he whizzed by his nose,
And everybody stopped to say:
See how that fellow goes.
1T must be life and death with him,
The way he tears along
Suppose a tire should jump the, rim
Or something should go wrong!
But in and out he squirmed and turned
Still putting on the power,
And down the crowded street he chupned
At forty miles an hour.
At forty miles an hour he sped,
He seemed in dreadful haste,
AS one along the road he fled,
Who had no time to waste
But with final whizz and whirl
He stopped before fiat
And went to call upon his girl
And there he sat and sat.

sums of money for reclaiming barren
lands. The statement of the Prime
Minister did not satisfy the Socialists
and there were several fights between
the members of that party and the

cessive years played over the grave of
Thomas Hannahoe, in the East Read

promise made to the late Hannahoe

In life almost everybody in Read

county knew genial Tom Hannahoe.
He died seventeen years ago, after
brief illness.
One of his closest friends was Mr..
Schaeffer, the cornetist and band
master. Shortly before Hannahoe's
death occurred he made an agree
ment with the cornetist that in the
event of Schaeffer's death he would
attend his funeral and on each st.

sing the Lass of Galway" and

Winter Bathing at Coney Island.


From the Brooklyn Standard Union.
What is the average citizen to
think of the forty men and women
who went to Brighton Beach yester-
day and waded out among the ice
cakes to battle? Perhaps a majority
of New Workers believe they are
cranks, a certain percentage prob
ably regard them pretty much as
they would an aerial daredevil, and
the remainder doubtless think that
they are doing their utmost to die
of pneumonia.
And yet these polar bears seem to
do very well under the heroic treat
ment. They come back every winter
to take the Sunday dip in the break
ers. Few die and none resign from
the several clubs which sport on Sun
day down at the beach.
But, of course, what is a tonic or
a bracer for one man or woman might
prove very harmful to another. These
folks who do not finch at a boreal
blast or SILVER when they strike the
icy water are a law unto themselves.
They grow fat or lusty under the
diversion. But that is no reason for
any one to think that almost every
body could do the same thing and
show up at business the next day.
1t is test enough for some people
to sit in an automobile, clothed in
furs and wrapped in blankets, watch
ing the bathers playing on the sands
or come dripping from the water.

Claim Makes Men Drunkards.
BOSTON, March "a modification
of an act known as the Bar and Bot
tie" bill. which forbids the sale of
LIQUOR in bottles over bar, was urged
Yesterday by several liquor associa-
lions before a legislative committee
on the ground that the original meas
ure, passed three years ago, had
proved a failure. 1t was claimed that
drunkenness had increased since the
bill was passed.
The liquor interests asked that the
law be modified, so that each city and
town might decide whether such a
measure were necessary.

North and South America.

FROM lie Bfes1l Economlqne.
South America is more and more
preoccupied with observing her sister
of the North Visits, travels for
study, excursions of representatives
of commerce and manufacturers sue
coed each other without interruption.
Truly the South should not complain,
but it is well to consider whether this
movement of intense interest and
curiosity on the part of an eminently
practical people, whose every act is
determined by a unitarian end is
proof of progress realized by the
Southern Hemisphere.
The Americans of the North feel
that a new economic force is moving
in this part of the continent, that a
new theatre of production and con-
sumption is opening with which 1t is
indispensable that they should be
united in commercial relations, and
that the activities of exchange should
be augmented and intensified 1t is
announced that after so many ex-
cursionists have come to us from the
United States of the North more are
coming next February, representing
various chambers of commerce of
Boston and other places, among
whom will be $50 from Chicago, all of
whom are preparing to make visits
to the principal cities of South Amer
lea. We are really obliged to admire
the remarkable spirit of method
which attends the slightest actions
of this Yankee people, whose ideal
and religion is material progress"
