Kept Silly Vow Long.

Mama Smith, the oldest citizen of Saco, Me., died the other night, aged 95 years. His first ballot was cast for Fremont, the first republican nominee for president. At that time Mr. Smith had never shaved. He made a wager that he would never be shaved until Fremont was elected. He lived up to that agreement, a razor never touching his face.
