soaked in lager This 'brew of barley is
said to be least harmful of all stimulants
and is often commended to the alert, ner-
vous American, but he-contemplating the
stupidity and corporosity of his Dutch
neighbor-turns again to his 'whiskey
strait" that fires the brain and burns the
life away.
Intemperance has been and still is doing
a fearful business in this fair land, and not
chiefly among the ignorant and degraded.
Death loves a shining mark" and cuts
down every year among the victims of in
temperance many a FALLEN star" many
bright "son of the morning" whose fair
promise of all that is good and great sinks
in gloom and dishonor before the noontime
of life is reached. The Good Templars
and similar organizations have aided hun
dreds to walk "soberly and uprightly," but
| find it extremely difficult to induce leading
men, men of talent and high social or po-
litical position, to take any sort of pledge
Verify it would hurt their self-respect to
join these Mandy PANTY temperance soci-
cites. So with sturdy independence and
genteel self-reliance, they sip the fashion
able poison, fondly creduious that for them
alone will be exemption from the awful

lieve that the exclusion of strychnine wills
key and substitution of native wine will
make everything lovely. Such change
would be an improvement, but not a cure
