RowDYIsM AND LAGER BIER.-Is lager
bier intoxicating? The chemists say no.
The doctors have pronounced the same opin-
ion. The courts have decided ditto. Juries
have agreed on such a verdict. The whole
matter seems to be chemically, medically, and
judicially settled. But like many other vex-
cd questions, it won't stay settled. And it
happens, very strangely of course, and Who'll
ly inexplicable too, by any of the settled or
unsettled rules of rum ratiocination, that,
more than once in twenty-four hours Of the
year, persons go into lager bier saloons drink
u few glasses, become boisterous, get into a

times ktii, etc. W hat is the SpleHetieH ef

How To TAKE LIFE.-Take life like man.
Take it just as though il wns--as it is--an
earnest, vital essential affair. Take it just as
though you personally were born to the task
of performing n merry part in it--as though
the world had waited for your coming. Take
it as though it was grand opportunity to do
and to achieve, to carry forward great and
good schemes to help and cheer n suffering
weary it may be a heart-broken brother
The fact is, life is undervalucd by great
majority of mankind. 1t is not made half as
much Of as should be the case. Where is the
man or woman who accomplishcs one tithe
of what might be done? Who cannot look
back upon opportunities lost, plans unachev-
ed, thoughts crushed, aspirations unfulflled,
and all caused from the lack of the necessary
and possible effort If FIVE knew better how
to take and make the most of life, il would be
far greater than it is. Now and then man
sLands aside from the crowd. lahors earnestly
steadfastly, confidently, and struightway be-
comes famous for wisdom intellect, skill,
greatness of some sort. The world wonders
admires, idoizes; and yet it only illustrates
what each may do If he takes hold of life with
a purpose. II man but say he icW, and
follows II up, there is nothing in reason he
may not expect to accomplish. There is no
magic, no miracle, no secret to him who is
brave in heart and determined in spirit
