BEWARE OF Evn.-Dr. Charming most for
cibly says in one of his discourses on Temper
ance: .Let no man say, when he thinks of the
drunkard's broken health and shattered INTEL
lect, lean never so fall He thought as little
OF falling in his younger years. The promise
Of his youth was as bright a. yours; and even
after he began his downward course, he was as
unsuspicious as the irmest around him, and
would have repelled as indignantly the admo-
milton to beware Of intemperance. The danger
Of this vice lies in its almost imperceptible ap-
proach. Youth does not suspect drunkenness
in the sparkling beverage, which quickens all
it's susceptibilities Of joy. The invalid does
not see il in the cordial which gives new tone to
his debilitated organs. The man of thought
and genius detects no palsying poison in the
draught which seems a spring Of inspiration to
intellect and imagination. The lover Of social
pleasure little dreams that the glass that ami
mates conversation will ever be drunk in soil
tude, and win sink him too low for the inter
course in which he now delights. Intemper-
ance comes with noiseless steps, and binds the
first cord with q touch too light to be felt. This
truth Of m~ournful experience should influence
the arguments and habits of social and domes-
tic life IN every class Of the community

USEFUL KNOWLEDGE,
PREPARATION OF SUGAR.

OF SUGAR
The London Standard Of the 18th ult. thus
comments IN the use of the "lead material"
in clarifying and refining sugar:
"That the acetate or, as it is in the British
patent described, the Sdi-aeetate of lead,' fami-
liarly known to all as the sugar Of lead Of the
oil shops, is a deadly poison, must be known
to all. That it is chemically combined with su-
gar in the patented process (which we assert
upon the best authority to be in use in Cuba
and the Brazils) is not denied. It may be that
q skilful and very careful chemist can separate
all the mortal poison from the sugar, with
which it is chemically combined, ~although.we
have heard that a perfect separation has been
found impracticable, four per cent of poison al
ways remaining in the sugar; but be this as it
may, the utmost skill and the greatest care are
confessedly necessary to relieve the sugar of
the oxide Of lead.
In France a law passed shortly after the Wis
itation of the cholera in 1882, and passed upon
the suggestion Of the best chemists OF the
country, prohibiting. universally the employ
ment Of metallic oxides in the preparation OF
any article Of food. This law has opposed the

that he was obliged to sit down on the wrong
