no More Madeira,

The vine disease has not only entaed
ruin on many respectable English mer
chants, but has also exerted widely eS
tended influence over the social relations Of
the island When the first crop failed,
twelve years ago, il was accompanied BY the
outbreak of the potato disease, and the two
together produced starvation among the
poorer classes. Several persons died Of
hunger, and more would have shared the
same fate, lie not the foreign merchant
established in Funchal formed committee
and obtained from England and the United
States money and provisions TO the value
Of eight thousand five hundred pounds
1t is estimated that prior to the disease the
average produce amounted to about thirty
thousand pipes, Of which two ihnds were
drunk on the island, or converted into spirits
In 1925, fourteen thousand four hundred
and thity-t~o pipes left the isaud in
1864 probably not single piIe viii be-
shipped. The greater portion of the tx
ported wine naturally went to England;
though lsterly the consumption has slightly
decrea;ted. While it has risen TO the same
extent in Russia and North America The
enormous vintage Of early years is now all
but reduced to oacypher. Old real Madeira
will soou be rarity even on the island, and
when vine.growing, for which the volcanic
soil is admirably suited, vii only possess

Lord Eldon's Father.

After the death OF his first wife, he
rose one morning with the whimsical res
olution OF marrying any one Of his maids
who should first appear on his ringing
the bell. He rang, and the chambsrmaid
came up, to whom he abruptly said,
"Get yourself ready, and so with me to
be married" The silly gitl withdrew.
lie rang the bell the second time, when
the cookmaid appeared. to whom he
said, "Well my girl, intend this day to
make you my wife Go and dress your
selfin the best you have, and order the
coach Immediately" She took him at
his word, dressed herself, and coming
down stairs, was met by the silly cham
bermaid,- Who asked her where she was
going? Abroad, / have my masters
leave" She had scarcely uttered these
words when her master came down.
and took her by the hapd to the coach.
which drove TO st. Benet's ehatch, where
they were married.

Advice to Young Men.

Getting INTO society differs but hui
from getting into your landlord You
must remember that the cut of your coat
very often settles the cut of your stick.
Shape is good to travel on. but shape ana
talent soldercd together with the quin-
tessence of cheek generally succeed,
A free use Of facial brass, assisted BY
a surr.it Of mustache and superlluily OF
shirt bosom and neck tie, will cary YOU
easily and gently along the pleasant and
refreshing path Of prosperity, Your
locomotion will be rapid but safe in this
SIDE. Stick TO it il it takes all summer.
Many man has worked his way from
nothing into u double-breaste fortune
by the simple jingle of a bunch of keys
and couple of pennies in his breeches
pocket A roll of l'ungtown shin plas
ter "tens" properly displayed have been
the salvation Of many a gushing youth.
MIX it your business to pay no at
teution to your business, and to keep a
sharp eye on every body ese's
Don't let your mode>ty get in your way
Modesty is a humbug OF the first water.
Modest young men are always IN trouble,
Stare every man and woman you meet
square in in the face Stare them down
Never pay your debts, Such a course
is plrbean and panders TO that spirit of
reform by which few old fosies desire
to bring us back to the old style of
things. If you are duuned, face the
music. pocket the bill, and walk on. II
you want money don't think Of earning
it. If you begin by working for your
support you will lose caste and time.
.Borrow--that's the ticket Borrow Of
everybody and anybody. But don t
think of paying. Should you pay back
borrowed money you would ruin your
credit.
Live high, live fast. initiate the exam
pie Of the innocent sponge--absorb all
YOU can, but don't get yourself squeezed
Only lemons and young girls are sub
jected to that compreSslve process.
