/ / CHIEF MISERY MAKER. IVklakT llaa So •• a C«atrlk> afor Co Bamao Woe. Wbpn Dr. -Thomas J. HlUlg asserts that n’hlskjr coDtaina all the constltu* cot eletueDts of food, be probably speaks fruiu meilic-al ^oowleilge. But a’beu be states that whisky ,makes buDdrcds merry for every teu (it makes miserable be knows not Vboroof be talks. One drunkard may feci exceedingly merry, but be is sure to make every* body witbiD bis sphere of influence miserable. Where there is deep and Gonslstont drinking there can be no liapplnefia. Mr. Hlllis seems .to think that all 4runkards are hereditary drunkards and that they drink because they are unable to abstain from it. Generally speaking, we are an in temperate nation, but the Intemper* auco of 10 men in 20 is not hereditary. It is acquired. There arc men who achieve drunkenness deliberately and periodically. Others have drunkenness thrust uix>n them. The periodical drunkard is a prey to circumstances. If he happens to be a rich man, cither joy or sorrow will ar raign him at,tbe bar. ■ If be Is a labor ing malS, be ‘gets drunk on pay days, because the task of earning his money kt over, and he seeks the relaxation -which on penniless days he is unable to purchase. But. whether a man be a periodical or a habitual drunkard, be la>Bure to cause misery. Dr. Hlllis Inveighs against ministers and ultra temperate physicians who “assemble In a hioral blockhouse, deaf to the bugle of common sense.” The excessive use of 'whisky has nothing to do with common sense. As a medicine It is a flue thing for snake bites. As a merriment producer it Is a failure - throughout the w'orld. As misery maker It is perfection.—New Tork Evening .Tournal. name on the society page of the Sun day papers I guess I can’t afford to stay with you.” The Nohh Side woman declared the domestic incident closeil.—Chicago In ter Ocean. he, iqa* wag of IdestiaeatlOB.

EUROPE’S DRINKERS. Enaland Consumes Most Beer, While Germnnx Leads In Spirits. From 'tlie statistics of the board of trade the following Information may ^ derived with regard ;to the' bever ages consumed in three of the principal Euroi>eun countrles-rFraucc, Germany, England: Frenchman drinks annually 141 bottles of wine, 30 bottles of beer and 11.bottles of spirits; a German, 0 bot tles of wine, 141 bdttles of beer and 12 bottles of spirits; nu Englishman. 2 battles of wine. 178 bottles of beer and C |K)ttle8 of spirits (six bottles, an im IKj^Ial gallon). • These figures show that, although the consumption of wino in Franceja 341 l,K»tt)F^ per head of population, or 1,000.000.000 gallons altogether. In Eng land-+V-a ruoiints to only 2 bottles i>er head, or’u total of hut 10,000,000 gal lons, while In Germnqy the cousump- tloa la LioUles pur i>ead. or an aggre> gate of 78>0(X),000 galluiis In other w'ords, for every bottle consumed nq KngllHtnnan a Gej-man drloki\ anda Preiichman iKittles of wine. It need pot be nji)sumed -that the quan tity of wine consumed In the Ignited Kingdom will cv^r seriously affeot bur reputation as-a beer driuking nation; but, although our mode of living more nearly approaches that of the continent year by year,, it diH*s seem curious that -d^'on tile German, wdth a similar climate, drinks twice as much slplrlt and three-fourths ns much beer, also consumes over four times as much wine ns the Englishman.—I.,oudon Times. A VITAL QUESTION. It DrnnkenueBa I» a Great anl''Grc Bliadowine Bvll. There is today in the English speak ing countries no sucii tremendous, far- reaching, vital question ns that of drunkenness. In its Implications niKl effects It overshadows all else. It lies at the center of all social anff political mischief. It paralyzes energies in every direction. It battles penal reform, obstructs i>olItical reform. It rears aloft a mass of evil Inspired power, which at every salient point threatens SMlal and national advance, which gives to ignorance and vice greater potency than intelligence and virtue can command, which deprives the pobc of thh advantages of modern pro$ies4 .whleh> debauches and de grades millions, brutalizing and sod- dening them below the planes healthy savagery and filling the cen ters of popAlatlou with creatures whose condition almost excuses the Immorality which renders them dan gerous to their generation.

The children of the deseH were filled with "awe when first the silence of the primeval solitude was broken by the pufllng of the steam engine. Down at tlie otlicr end of the Cape to Cairo line the simple Matabeic, when first con fronted by a locomotive, were certain that the strange machine'was worked by the labor of an in^finite number of be oxen, which, they assumed were-shut up inside; hence, whebvihe engine stop ped, they gatheredkln^urlous csowds, waiting to see the door open and the oxen come out, nor could they for many days be persuaded that the power of the locomotive could come from other tlian the strength of the ox.
