Old Salem Landmark Sold

Ptaee Where Nathaniel Hawthorne Courted Miss Peabody Is Transferred in Salem. Boston.—Romance In the life of Nathaniel Hawthorne is vividly recalled the sale of the three-story house at -85 Charter street, Salem. Louis Dembofsky has transferred the property to Jennie I. Linsky. The house was erected about 150 * years ago. Within the dwelling Miss Bophia Amelia Peabody, daughter of br. Nathaniel Penbody, was born, September 21,1809. Miss Peabody wedded Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Lt appears jdngular to readers of the; great Amerloan romancer’s works that, charming M his associations must have been With the house, he should have reMped its situation in the unpleasant *boniver Romance,” and later In the depictions made in “Dr. Grlmshawe’s tocret." That he did so Is shown. In the opening chapter of "Dr. Grlmshawe’s Secret” which reads, “Cornered .on a graveyard with which t’le house communicated by a back door,” while the bouse itself was "A three-story woodsn structure, perhaps a century old, E’ studded with a square front, standright upon the street, and a small losed po.ch containing* the main antrance, affording a glimpse up and town the thoroughfare through an oval window on each side." Hawthorne in his writings referred «t considerable length to the eemetery on the east side of th® "Grtmshawe" bouse. In fact, In the corner of the cemetery adjoining the house are the most ancient headstones remaining tn the graveyard. Hawthorne once said: "It gives us strange ideas, to think tow convenient to Dr. Peabody’s famBy this burial ground is, the monuinents standing almost within arm's of the side windows of the par-

Tiff, who has been married several times. The old man, barely able to walk even with the assistance of a cane, was hobbling down the long hallway oh the eighth floor with the marriage license and ring in his hand his fiancee clinging to his arm. “We want to get married. Do you know of any one that will do it for us?” the watchman was asked. “I want a home and a companion,” said Reilly, “and I guess the woman that wants to be my bride is about as good as any. Aren’t you, Mary?” They went to the residence of the bride’s daughter, Mrs. Margaret McCauley, who lives in West Twentysixth street, and from there they intended going back to Cleveland. “Poor old man,” said the newly made Mrs. Reilly, in speaking of her husband. “He has been without a

The cemetery and house are practically as described by Hawthorne 72 years ago, with the exception of the gate, which has been destroyed. The house now is to be renovated and other buildings will be erected in the yard. The exterior of the house will be changed In appearance, yet the mutationrvwlll not destroy the history of the old landmark, or diminish interest on the part of people visiting Salem for the purpose of viewing buildings associated with Hawthorne. He was not weeded to Miss Peabody in the “Dr. Grimshawe house,” as has been claimed, but In a dwelling that numbered 13 West street, Boaton, then the home of Dr. Peabody. Deer te Have Monument. Katahdin, Mass. —A subscription headed by New York sportsmen is being taken to raise funds with which to buy a monument to mark the burial place of Ethel, the pet deer shot through the mistake of Bernard Morris of New York a few days ago. Morris saw Ethel running about the Silver Lake hotel, a large bow of ribbon adorning her neck. Morris evidently thought it nothing unusual to see a deer running' about berlbboned and brought down the boast at the first shot. Mary Conners, pastry cook at the hotel, rescued Ethel from the bears when th® deer was young. This King Fines HlmeeW.

The ho story has a large silk peacock embroidered half way up the leg in the bird’s gorgeous coloring. The stork stocking is another freak article of women’s dress. The snake hat has been sold recently in London, and the wearer can don a pair of snake stockings to han monlze with her headgear. A specimen of the snake stocking In black silk is ornamented with a large red snake of sequins.

Many fans are exhibited which ap pear as a large peacock or fowl, with a head and beak finish, whilst others are painted with numbers of birds. The butterfly lady, who wears a butterfly hat, brooch or shiny butterflies in her hair, can have butterfly handkerchiefs. - These are sold at from $1 a half dozen, and the pretty embroid ered wings are detached from ths ground work of the handkerchief. Not inappropriately, the snake maiden might carry one of the new beetle handkerchiefs. These have tropical beetles embroidered in bright colors. SOLOMON’S TASK IS OUTDONE English Public Vaccinator Facet Problem in Case of Child Said to Be "Half Italian.” London. —According to the British Medical Journal a public vaccinatoi has been confronted with a curious problem. The father of a child who had attained the age of 4 months, and whose name appeared on the pub 11c vaccinator's list, wrote to that offi clal a tetter in which he explained that he was not, unlike many Eng llshmen, a conscientious objector U vaccination. But his wife, so he ex plained, was an Italian, and desired t® bring up the child in the manner fol lowed in her native country, where the child would be vaccinated at tbs school age and not In early Infancy. "My wife wished me to say to you.” concluded the communication, “that the child Is half Italian, and If the English government enforces vaccina tlon It must undertake to confine the effects of vaccination to the English portion of the infant. She claims the protection es the Italian consul for the Italian half of the boy." The question, which Is actually pending, has brought no definite suggestions from the vaccinators, and it is held that compared to the problem presented Solomon had a comparatively easy task when he handed 4m his historic decision.

Now About Clean Food Another Splendid Opportunity to Bring Out Facts

When the “Weekly” which sued us for libel (because we publicly denounced them for an editorial attack on our claims) was searching for some “weak spot,” they thought best to send a N. Y. Atty, to Battle Creek, summoned 25 of our workmen and took their sworn statements before a Commissioner. Did we object? No. On the contrary, we helped all we could, for the opportunity was too good to be lost. Geo. Haines testified he inspected the wheat and barley, also floors and every part of the factories to know things were kept clean. That every 30 minutes a sample of the products was taken and inspected to keep the food up to standard and keep out any impurities, also that it is the duty of every man in the factories to see that anything not right is immediately reported. Has been with the Co. 10 years. Edward Young testified had been with O>. 15 years. Inspector, he and his men examined eveyy sack and car of wheat and barley to see they were up to standard and rejected many cars. H. E. Burt, Supt., testified has been with Co. over 13 years. Bought only the best grain obtainable. That the Co. kept a corps of men who do nothing but keep things clean, bright and polished. Testified that no Ingredient went into GrapeNuts and Postum except those printed in the advertising. No possibility of any foreign things getting into the foods as most of the machinery is kept closed. Asked if the factory is open to the public, said “yes” and “it took from two to three guides constantly to show visitors through the works.” Said none of the processes were carried on behind closed doors. At this point attys. for the "Weekly” tried to show the water used was from some outside source. Testified the water came from Co-’s own artesian wells and was pure. e

REALLY OPENED THEIR EYES Parishioner’s Remark, However, Left Young Minister Somewhat in the Dark. Rev. Henry R. Rose in the Newark Star tells the story of a young minister who had recently taken charge of a small parish in Vermont. He aspired to greater things and a large field, and in the hope that his reputation would travel beyond the limits of the village to which he had been sent he threw into his sermons all the force and 'eloquence at his command. He was, however, tdtally unprepared for what was Intended for a compliment, but which was put to him in such away that it left him in doubt as to the real impression he had made. One Sunday morning, after an especially brilliant effort, he was greeted by an old lady, who was one of the most faithful attendants at all services. Approaching the young minister, she said: “Ah, sir, we do enjoy your sermons so much, they are so instructive. Do you believe it, we never knew what sin was until you came to the parish.” Same Thing. Joakley—You’re right; most people worry over what they haven’t got, but I know certain people who worry because of what they have. Coakley—That so? What have they? Joakley — Nothing.—The Catholic Standard and Times.

He testified the workmen were first-class, high-grade and inspected by the Co.'s physician to be sure they were all in proper physical condition; also testified that state reports showed that Co. pays better wages than the average and he thought higher than any in the state. F. B. Martin, Asst. Supt., testified GrapeNuts made of wheat, barley, yeast and water. Anything else? “No, sir.” .Postum made of Wheat, Wheat Bran and New Orleans Molasses. Statements made on his experience of about 10 years with Co. Testified bakers are required to wear fresh white suits, changed every other day. Said had never known any of the products being sent out that were below the high standard of inspection. Asked if any one connected with the Postum Co. had instructed him how to testify. Said, “No, sir.” Horace Brown testified has been with Co. 9 years. Worked In Grape-Nuts bake shop. Testified the whole of the flour is composed of Wheat and Barley. Attys, tried to confuse him, but he insisted that any casual visitor could see that nothing else went into the flour. Said machinery and floors always kept clean. So these men were examined by the "Weekly” lawyers hoping to find at least one who would say that some under-grade grain was put in or some unclean condition was found somewhere. But it was no use. Each and every man testified to the purity and cleanliness. As a sample, take the testimony of Luther W. Mayo. Testified been with Company about 10 years. Now working in the bakery department making Grape-Nuts. Testified that the ovens and floors are kept clean and the raw products as they go in are kept clean. Also that the wearing apparel of the employes has to be changed three times a week.

Young Age Pensions. Young age pensions! Why not? TV ties, honors, riches, pensions and most other good things are, as a rule, postponed to a period of life when the oa» parity for enjoying them has been blunted. Australia was one of the first countries to adopt old-age pensions, and now a Labor member of the commonwealth parliament proposes • complementary scheme of young age pensions. He would start by pension* ing the fourth child at birth. The fact that three had previously been born showed that the parents were doing their duty and deserving well of thgj state.

Q. Do you use Postum or Grape-Nuts yourself at all? .A. Yes, I use them at home. Q. If from your knowledge of the factory which you have gained in your ten years at the factory you believed that they were dirty or impure in any way, would you use them? A. I do not think I would. No. Asked if any one on behalf of the Company had asked him to testify in any particular manner. Stated “No.” All these sworn depositions were carefully excluded from the testimony at the trial, for they wouldn’t sound well for the “Weekly.” Think of the fact that every man swore to the purity and cleanliness so that the Atty, for the "Weekly" was forced to say in open court that the food was pure and good. What a disappointment for the "Weekly!” But the testimony showed: All of the grain used,in Grape-Nuts, Postum and Post Toasties Is the highest standardpossible to obtain. All parts of the factory are kept scrupulously clfean. None of the workmen had been told how to tester Most of them have been from 10 to 15 years with the Co. and use the products on their tables at home. f Why do their families use the products, Grape-Nuts, Postum and Post Toasties, that they, themselves, make? “There’s a Reason” I Postum Cereal Co., Ltd., Battle.
