The'Way It Used To Be-

(From P*Ke 5) the last century — senna seeds, cassia bark and Irish moss. A patent prescription book from 1902 calls for 4osages of nux vomica, quinine, Pfnd other non-miracle ' drugs of the time. ALSO ON SALK ARE calicocovered hen-shaped , doorstops, calico wreaths, and handy carryalls or serving baskets made from mushroom baskets covered with fabric amTruffles. A curved glass display cabinet will hold old fashioned penny candy. (Tltough, admits vivacious Toni Naydi^ village manager, "We’re not sure

Nowhere will there be ash trays inscribed on lop with “Souvenir of Cold Spring Village” and on the bottom with “Made in Taiwan". Most of the store's stock is the product of local craftsmen and craftswomen. Among them are Mrs. Thomas Madden, who lives nearby on Old Shore Road, and Mesdames Donna Heilman and Kathy McDowell of Cape May. Other attractions, each bringing a bit of the past into the pre-

sent, are:

THE JOHN FINLEY blacksmith shop, originally on site in Goshen, where owner Finley provided implements for the shipbuilding trade. Complete with outside wood-fired kiln

constructed, arched roof and all, without mortar, it will house the salt-glazed rustic pottery produced by Chuck Stump. • Nearby (as is everything in the village), Colleen Stump, the potter’s wife, will do her weaving in the Phillip S. Hand House, an 1842 homestead from Tuckahoe, which ws probably the home of a fisherman. - The Nathanial Douglass House, a typical mid-1800s farmhouse, once located on Town Bank Road, will be the olfactory magnet of the complex. It will produce period cakes, cookies and relishes, i The David Taylor Shop, first located in Dennisville and used as a cobbler’s shop, will house the handiwork of decoy makers Jahiie Hand and Tony Hillman. A CANDLEMAKER’S SHOP, with the work’of Joi Clydesdale, daughter of Lower Township Mayor Thomas Clydesdale, will occupy the Heislerville House, from Cumberland County, believed to have been used originally as .a one-room schoolhouse. George Washington Frame, printer, has his shop in the Victorian-style Woodbine Train Station, with its fish scale shingle siding. Frame has already produced the brochures, store bags, and other priitted matter for the

village.

The 1878 Howard Norton House from Dyer's Creek, once used as a homestead and general store, will have exhibits of period costumes and fashions, plus the Granny's Trunk traveling exhibit of Victorian fashions of the N.J. State

Library.

The Rio Grande railroad station will bloom with the dried flower creations of Betty McPherson. The Dennisville Inn will accom-

modate the spinning and dyeing of Jude Burkhauser, who also served as desigff consultant for the village project. THE SPICER LEAMING House, belietied to be the second oldest existing home in Cape May County and dating back to the mid-1700s, still awaits a craftsman tenant. It was moved to the village from Schellenger's Lan-

ding.

The "villagers" will carry out the historical theme by wearing appropriate costumes — calico dust caps and long, colorful gowns for the women, and homespunlooking farmers’ smocks for the

men. ,

"I thought knee breeches would be nice for them,” Mrs. Nardi says wistfully, “but they wouldn’t

go for the idea."

The village is the realization of a long-cherished dream for its guiding spirit, £>r. Joseph Salvatore, & Wildwood-born orthopedic surgeon who practices in Englewood. An avid collector of Americana, for many years he has been acquiring artifacts of earlier folk ways, including the buildings and equipment making up the Cold Spring complex. The village has been a-building over the past several years, with the historic structures being moved in from their orginal sites. ' . DR. SALVAfORE, HIS WIFE Anne, and ch^ren Ricky and Katie, divide their time between their North Jersey home in Alpine and their second one, the 1840 George Hildreth House adjoining the village and part of the 35-acre property. Their aim is to make the village the base of a program to preserve the historical heritage of

The project itself has been carried out Ih a somewhat old fashioned way — without government grants or borrowing, and with a lot of sleeves-rolled-up work. Tracked down on a recent raw, damp April Saturday, Dr. Salvatore, measuring tape in hand, and Rom Nardi, general manager of the village, armed with sketches, a back hbe and several helpers, were completing the work of putting in a drainage ditch and timber dividers for the parking lot.
