The contributions of DR.. Holmes, in the AZ.
lautic Magazine, under the style Of THE
Professor at the Breakfast Table" are alone
worth the price ofthat periodical. We take
the following from his paper, upon the sub
iect of wine:
Whatever may be the hygienic advan.
tagcs or disadvantages of wine-and for
one, except for certain particular ends, be-
lieve in water, and. blush to say it, in black
tea-therc is no doubt about its being the
grand specific against dull dinners. a score
of people come together in all moods of mind
and body. The problem is, in the space of
one hour, more or less, to bring them all into
the same condition of slightly exalted life
Food alone is enough for one person, per.
/ haps-talk, alone, for another but the grand
equalizer and fraternizer, which works up
the radiators 10 their maximum radiation,
and the absorbents to their maximum recep-
tivity, is now just where it was when.
The conscious water its Lord and blushed.
when six great vessels containing water.
which seems to have been carefully purified.
so as TO be ready for the marriage feast were
changed into the best of wine. / once wrote
a song about wine in which Ispoke 30 warm
lv of it. that was afraid some would think
it was written inter pocnla; whereas it was
composed in the bosom of my family, under
the most tranquilizing domestic influences.
The divinity student turned towards me,
looking mischievous. Can YOU tell me-he
said-who wrote a song for a temperance
celebration once, of which the following isa
verse;
ALIAS for the loved one, too gentle and fair
The joys of the banquet to chasten and share!
Her eye lost its light that his goblet might shine.
And the of her cheek was dissolve cd III his wine
did answered. What are you going
to do about it? will tell you another line
wrote long ago
Don't be .consistent'-but be simply true"
"The longer live, the more am satisfied
of two things: first, that the truest lives are
those that are cut rose-diamond-fashion with
many facets answering to the many-plancd
aspects of the world about them; secondly,
that society is always trying in some way or
other to grind us down to a single fiat sur
face 1t is hard work to resist this grinding
down action. Now give me a chance. Bet
ter eternal and universal abstinence than
the brutalities of those days that made wives
and mothers and daughters and sisters
blush for those whom they should have hon
ored,-as they came reeling home from their
debauches. Yet better even excess than
lying and hypocrisy; and if wine is upon all
our tables, let us praise it for its color and
fragrance and social tendency, so far as it
deserves and not hug a bottle in the closet
and pretend not to know the use of wine,
glass at public dinner! / think you will
find that people who honestly mean to be true
really contradict themselves much more rare
ly than those who try to be "consistent." -
But great many things we say can be made
to appear contradictory, simply because they
are partial views Of truth, and may often
look unlike at first, as front view of face
and its profile often do"
