but owing V> the fact that 11? persons
were also on the mountain, it Ixdng visi
tors’ night, no length of time could be
to know the manner in which our New
England grandfathers indulged in the
•‘cup that cheers” seventy or eighty
years ago. In those days the Prohibi
tory party'and other temperance organi
zations were unknown, even the famous
Washingtonian movement being hardly
dreamed of at that time. Nearly all
persons—at least of the male sex-—were
in the habit of using spirituous liquors
whenever their taste or inclination so
suggested.
The favorite alcoholic drink of this
part of the country was New England
rum, which has been a favorite tipple
from a very early period in our history.
PerhajfS the earliest record is when Gov
ernor Endicott, of Massachusetts, was
ways the great attraction for visitors. It
was the first peep through the 36-inch re
fractor that Professor Davidson enjoyed
since the completion of t^e observatory,
and to say that he was pleased with the
experience is ouly half putting it.

old tavern in Lynn in 10.10. This rum was
also the basis of several other popular
beverages. Its sale reached a compara
tively great magnitude, principally in the
forty or fifty years that followed the
American revolution. It was nearly all
distilled in this section of the country
and in towns in close proximity to Bos
ton, hence the name of New England
was affixed to the intoxicant.
A hundred years ago there were sixty
distilleries in full working order in New
England, the bulk of the product being
from Salem, Medford and Newport, R. I.
The “old Medford” of today originally
gained its distinction from the town
where it was made, and was not consid
ered as good as that of Salem, which was
especially noted for its good quality, and
that town turned out a vast quantity also,
being at the head of the list in regard to
number and oapacity of distilleries. Bos
ton, too, had a small share in the fame
of producing this liquid, but the Hub
dealers, like those of today, were not dis
tillers, but usually jobbers, who dealt in
the suburban goods.
• In thoso days it was not necessary for
a man to enter uny ‘ little side door. '
nor was ho ashamed to tell his wife that
lio was intoxicated and she must take
caro of him. Neither did he have to
give a wink to the seller, nor did he ever
call for Schiedam Schnapps, brandy
cooktail, plum juice or even our every
day lager, for those drinks were unheard
of then. The sight of tin pails and jugs
filled with liquor was not at all uncom
mon on our streets. Cordials made from
6nakeroot and anise seed wore sold large
ly, often peddled about the streets the
samo as lemonade venders ply their trade
nowadays on the Boston streets.
The doctors of the old school were
moro liberal in prescribing liquor for
persons in delicato health than at the
present time, owing to the fact that
there was virtually no objection to its
use. Tho cordials of anise seed, etc.,
were mostly gotten up at Medford, Salem
and Lynn.
There was another decoction known as
“black strap,” which was made of New
England rum and molasses, mixed in
proportion to suit tho taste of the buyer.
This was, of course, considerably cheaper
than the straight article, and conse
quently was the favorite drink of those
who could not afford anything better.
Another drink was composed of rum and
sugar, then known as “a horn, ’ and
rum dashed with hot water and called
“toddy,” often drunk by the well to do
gentlemen on cold winter evenings along
with the eating of apples, which was a
favorite custom hereabouts.
A drink composed of rum and some-
’ thing else was called “grog. ” It origin
ally meant rum diluted with water, but
was more often with a cordial or some
thing of that nature. Tho name of
“grog” was derived in a singular way.
It is said that once Admiral Vernon, in
the British navy, and who was noted for
his generous nature, was wont to deal
out an allowance of this drink to his
sailors. lie wore what was called a
“grogan” cloak in severe wedther, and
after a while the men jestingly desig
nated him as “old grog,” lienee the name
of the mixture.
Every event of more than passing no
tice called forth a goodly supply of liquor.
One important occasion was on a day
that somebody’s pig was to be killed.
Such an occasion required the services of
three or four Aren, who took an after
noon to do the work, while the town took
a half holiday. Such an important oc
casion as this would be au utter tizzle
were not a large supply of nun on hand
ready to use. and it sometimes cost the
owner more than the pig was worth to
furnish the drinks. Another occasion of
note was election day, when every man
drank for the good luck of his favorite
candidate, and after the event was over,
again drank on account of success or
hoping for better luck next year. —Bos

“NEWNAN GIRL”
Death and Burial In China.
When the Chinese wish to declare the
extreme vexatiousness of any piece of
work they say: “It is more trouble than
a funeral;” the obsequies of a parent
being reckoned the most maddening
affair in human experience.-
Infants are buried summarily, without
coffins, and the young are interred with
few rites; but the funeral of the aged, of
both sexes, are elaborate in proportion to
the number of the descendants and to
their wealth. When a childless married
inan dies, his widow may perform all
the duties of a son toward him, may re
main in his house and may adopt children
to rear as his heirs and worshipers of the
family manes. If his widow proposes
marrying again, a young male relative
may, -with the consent of senior members
of the clan, undertake the services ex
pected front a son and inherit the estate
of the deceased.
When one is about t« die he is re
moved from his couch to a bench or to
a mat on the floor because of a belief
that he who dies in a lied will carry tho
bedstead as a burden into the next world,
ne is washed in a new pot in warm
water in which a bundle of incense sticks
is merged. After the washing the pot
and the water are thrown away to
gether. ne is then arrayed in a fuff suit
of new clothing that he may appear in
hades at his best. He breathes his last
in the main room, before the largest door
of the house, that the departing soul may
easily find its way out into the air. A
sheet of spirit money, brown paper hav
ing a patch of gilding on one surface, it
laid over the upturned face, because it is
said that if the eyes are left uncovered
the corpse may count the rows of tiles in
the roof, and that in such case the
farnilv could never build a more spacious
domicile.— Adele M. Field in Popular
Science Monthly.

Jforvray’s Land and People.
The forest laud in Norway is in extent
as compared with the arable land as
thirty to one. Of course the exportation
of timber is one of the chief resources of
the country, but the woods are well pre
served, a forester resides in every district,
and no waste or destruction’of such valu
able possessions is allowed, as has un
fortunately taken place in America. The
land that is cultivated, except in a few
favored spots, seems poor, and the people
themselves have, evidently, few cf the
luxuries of life. There are not many
villages, Norway differing from Sweden
in that respect; the farmhouses are scat
tered, and the dwellings of the peasants
are usually small wooden huts, and often
are ruinous.
But, though poverty is great, there is
no beggary. We have never been im
portuned for alms, nor have fees been ex
pected for trifling services, as in Italy or
the rural districts of England. The ]>eo-
pie have a somewhat sad. or rather a !
subdued look, such as solitude often gives. |
