.Ml HUSBAND DRINKS

Mr.. Editor:-ln one Of my walks the
other day, before left your city, I met
woman crossing the street with an IN.
FAINT IN her arms. She was miscrably
clad and her little boy, about year
cid. with bright black eyes and rudy
cheeks, sfemed unconscious that al.
most the wholc ofhis clothing consist.
cd Of nothing but IL coarse Iinsey bIan-
ket wrapped around him. Catching
glimpse OF the woman's face from
underline handkcrchiefwhich partially
covered it. discovered that she was
crying. There appeared something
so painfully interesting in her counte.
nance and whole appearance. that ]
stood gazing at her till she had turned
the corner. ssShe is evidently IN dis
tress." thought l, and although sur.
rounded witt the marks Of poverty and
wretchedness. may be a precious disci-
pie who. like Lazarus, is-oOw receir;ae-
her erii things. but who's IKE him too.
IS hereafter to receive her good things.
"Inasmuch as You have done it to one
Of the least Of these, 20 have done it to
me" With these reflections. I deter.
mined, If possible, to ascertain the
cause Of her wo, and enIeavor to re-
!ieveit. Having walked rapidly about
