From "All the Year Round"
The Absurd.ity Of Drinking.

y
It has become sort OF popular
almost national-faith that it is not
possible to be truly happy unless
you drink Among certain classes
and they are by no means exelu-
sively the lowest-drink is the be-
ginning and end of everything.
The very name of liquor is held to
be synonymous with enjoyment. and
the dearer the liquor the more iteis
priced and coveted. Yet every man
who is not downright drunkard, is
we'll aware that the pleasures of
drinking are, beyond certain point,
mockery, a delusion and snare.
I put it to any one who has stood
half the night at the bar Or sat half
the night in club room, drinking,
smoking und bandying reckless talk,
if the enjoyment Of such an evening
has been anything like that of few
quiet hours spent at home with a
book or newspapers? The evil i'll
Efuence of tavern pleasures on the
health is too obvious to be denied
by any one, and the illusory nature
Of the pleasures themselves would
be undcniable4 also, if the persons
who indulge in them did not deceive
themselves and put the truth out OF
sight. u1-s--Fei- s.'t
No zone ever brought any good
of drinking bout yet. 1t is ashort,
feverish spasm of animal enjoyment,
which leaves nothing behind but mo-
roseness, re-ret, bad temper. self-re-
proach and headache. l should
like to ask you, Sir, if you say Your
prayers when you come home in
that state 2. No-you don't. You
are ashamed 10 say them. You
postpone them until you vepurged
| yourself, your mind and your lips by
more sober and rational behavior.
Next night when yonr pass the hours
quietly at home with a book ora
| friend, you feel that you have had
real enjoyment, and that the time
has passed pleasantly, thaty you have
learned something, and that vou
have not injured your health. You
are not ashamed to say your pray
ers and you get up next morning
with a clear head, q good appetite,
and an increased faculty for work
and enjoyment Of life. g.jya.f -.
