MASONIC HUME NOTES
The event of paramount interest to
the Homes in the week past, was the
| breaking of ground for the erection
| of “Berks Home,” the memorial
, building of the Masons of Berks
| County, which took place on Thurs-
| day, May 6, 1915.
| The beautiful weather of a perfect
| spring day added to the attraction of
|the contemplated object and was
| sufficient to bring to the grounds a
(concourse of people in addition to
the Berks County delegation, the
men, women and children of the
Homes and many from Elizabeth-
town and vicinity, ag well ag from
Mount Joy and Lancaster.
The proceedings were exceedingly
|interesting, and the assemblage

Camden, N. J.—“I had a deep seated
cough, a run-down system and m: lungs
were awfully weak and sore. Iam an
electrician by occupation and my cough
kept me awake nights so I thought at
| times I would have to give up. {tried
everything everybody suggested and

| decided to give it a trial. Soon I noticed
an improvement. I kept on taking it
and today I am a well man. The sore-
ness is all gone from my lungs, I do not
have any cough and have gained fifteen
yunds in oa and I am telling my
riends that Vinol did it.”’ — FRaNE

; HILLMAN, Camden, N. J.
It is the curative, tissue-building in-
fluence of cods’ livers aided by the blood-
making, strength creating properties of
tonic iron, contained in Vinol, that made
it s0 successful in Mr. Hillman’s case,
We ask every person in this vicinit

Henry Gallagher
Henry Gallagher, a well known
barber of Lancaster, died suddenly
on Friday at the home of his daugh-
ter, Mrs. Abner Hull, at No. 217 N.
Prince street, where he made his
home. His health had been poor
for the past several years, as he
had an affliction of the heart. De-
ceased was in his 64th year and
was a son of the late Levi D. Gal-
lagher, an auctioneer of thig place.
He was born in this borough, at-
tending the public schools and after-
wards learning the trade of barber-
ing. About thirty-five years ago he
wenr to
the business there for several years.
He went from there to Brooklyn,
where he was in business for 18
years. He returned again to Lan-
caster and conducted a shop, retir-
ing two years ago on account of ill
health. He leaves one daughter,
Mrs. Hull and a brother, Levi, in
the real estate business in Brook-
lyn, and one step-sister, Mrs. Sallie

Mayflower Relics.
Among the Maine people who claim
t® have genuine Mayflower relics is
Mrs. Hiram Butterfield, of Farming-
ton, who has a plece of bed cord used
on the Mayflower. It is made of
whale’s sinews. One of Mrs. Butter
fleld’s ancestors came over in that
historic vessel. Mrs. Butterfield also
cherishes with great care a large
conch shell which belonged to her
grandfather, Elisha Lambert, and
which was used at Martha's Vine-
yard during the Revolutionary War
as a signal of danger from the ap-
proach of Britishers.

Mustard {8 grown in England to a
considerable extent in the eastern
counties and the Fen district and to
some extent In the Midlands. It is
ordinarily grown in heavy black sofl,
but it is generally believed that the
grop draws a great deal of strength
from the soll. The yield an acre is
variable, ranging from twenty to
thirty bushels, but twenty bushels is
usually considered a fair yield. The
seed rate is usuilly about three to
four pounds an acre when drilled in
rows from tn to twelve inches
apart.

“Berle”, from which Berlin has
"caught her name, means uncultivated
land. Slavonian Wends, the earliest
settlers on the sandy plain, could
make but little out of the soil. The
population in 1832 was only a quarter
of a million; less than forty years
later it was 300,000, and now it runs
into two millions. The man who gave
to Berlin its present form was Fred-
erick II, but Frederick the Great and
the Great Elector started the noble
hobby of beautifying the wondertul
eity.
It has been shown in practice that
concrete buildings require less artifi-
cial light than those of slow-burning
mill construction. This is owing to
the reflection of light from the white
walls and ceilings and columns and |
also to the fact that it is possible to
supply buildings of this character |
with greater window area than |
others. i

PAID A GHOST'S DEBTS.

Old Woman's Superstition Brings
Queer Case Before Judge.
An amazing story of an old wom-
an’s superstition came before Judge
Drummond at Balieborough, county
Cavan, in the course of an action
brough by Miss Anne Brady against
a local farmer named Connell.
The plaintiff said that in June last
the defendant told her that the ghost
of her brother Phil, who had been
dead twenty-six years, was haunting
him because he forgot to pay de-
fendant 70 shillings he owed him.
The witness was frightened and paid
the money, which the defendant
swore on “the poker and tongs” was
due. The defendant said he, after
Phil died, walked nine miles to the
wake to see if he could get an op-
portunity of mentioning the debt, but
he was not given a chance.
nied having sald anything whatever
about Phil's ghost. His Honor, in
giving judgment, said he firmly be-
Heved the story.

A Little Scare.
Percival came running to his
grandma one day, asking for a drink
“Quick, quick, grandma”
he sald, “give me a drink of water,
quick!”
After he got his drink, he said:
“The reason that I was in such a
hurry, I thought I swallowed a worm
while eating an apple and 1 wamted
to drown it.”
