IT CosTs MoRE THAN BREAD.-A
few days ago policeman remarked:
"There are three glasses Of liquor drank
in this city for each loaf OF bread that il
eaten"
Suppose this true; then for each loaf
of brcah. mt ten cents, there is paid for
drink thirty cents; or three times ~
much for liquor IA for bread.
II is estimated that four barrels of
-four vii. supply Il family oftive persons
with bread for year. \ barrel Of -four
will make 245 pounds of bread, and the
four barrels will give 1885 pounds, At
six cent ner pound, this is Sl5.oi FOR
each barrel of -four, or S63.35 for the
four barrels. If this estimate is too low,
take five barrels OF -four for each family
Of five persons aud the value Of bread
at six cents a pound, is S07.20 for the
year. The ls2, 600 families Of five per-
sons each, constituting the population
of the city, consume at this rate bread to
the value Of Sl4, 4l4, 400 a year.
There are in this city now Mt least
four thousand places where Intoxicating
liquors are sold. The number in New
York and Brooklyn in April, 1866, was
9270. Ii these receive on an average $50
a day each, that is Si3, 500. .O0Da year. 1t
is true, some Of the drinking houses are
mere ''holes In the wall" but Others Of
them are palaces. Some OF them take
in only few dollars day, while large
numbers of others take in hundreds Of
dollars. But it IL not Mt the drinking
houses. at the public bars, where all the
Intoxicating liquors are consumed. At
eating houses, mt clubs aud at hotels, are
expended large sums for wines and
strong spirits. Thus the use OF strong
drink counts up very fast, a. against
bread.-NeO York Erening Post.

Modern Paragraphing.

reads much better than when one 81, 3,
he died amid the most horrible and ex-
cruciating agonies., We get the whole
story aud our sensibilities are unnec-

The new style of paragraphing affords
a fine field for the exercise of ingenuity

man died. Variety, freshness and n

otherwise be utterly neglected hy the
