what Constitutes Moderate
Drinking.

In the early days of the temperance
reform In this country, q great deal
used to be said on the subject of "mOd-
crate drinking" But the total abstip-
ence advocates got the best OF the dis
cussion, because their opponents did
not agree rs to what constituted
moderation. A strong movement in
the temperance cause has been for
some time past under way in Great
Britain, and the debate Is largely car
ried on In the newspapers. DR.. VIII
son, the British medical officer of
health, has recently offered what may
be called scientific definition of mod
crate drinking. 1t Is given mt the
close of long essay on means for pre-
serving personal health, and Is imme-
diately preceded by q statement that
the tendency Of scientific opinion Is
toward the view that 1t is unnecessary
for people I'm health-especially for
young people and children-tO use
stimulants at all. But there are many
who do use them In what may be
termed moderation, and without APP
parent injury to health. The limit OF
this supposed safe use Is laid down ~
follows: II fluid ounces Of alcohol per
day, which is equivalent to 24 pints of
weak table beer, or IL pints OF stronger
beer, or porter, or 4 Of pint of light
French claret or Burgundy, or "a fluid
ounces Of port or sherry, or 3 fluid
ounces of spirits. Excess beyond this
limit Is denounced as sure TO entail
disordered health. To most Americans
the allowance viii seem abundantly
liberal.

A Cow He'll.

Daniel Sullivan and Joseph Bell
live on the six mile road, Hamtramck.
Sullivan's horses entered Bells stubbls
field one night, browsed on the scanty
clover and nibbled at q few heads OF
cabbage. Bell shut the animals up In
his stable and fixed barrier Of planks,
fence rails, etc., around the entrance.
Sullivan was vexed at this conduct on
the part Of his neighbor, whom he says
is q new conner and indebted to him
for many acts of kindness ,one obliging
turn of bis being to let Bell have q COW
last spring on six months credit, but,
as the time for payment approached,
the debtors behavior was such as to
arouse feelings of distrust In the breast
of Dan. The distraining of his horses
he regarded as o mere pretext for q
quarrel; and a. he was not potified
within twenty-four hours, as the law
requires, he procured q writ of replevin
and sent it on its mission In the hands
Of Officer James Clarity, who went to
the premises Immediately and de-
manded possession of the animals.
Bell stood outside the stockade, holding
q large fail, which he swung around
In the air at q furious rate, at the same
time mildly telling the officer that he
could mash all the constables in the
county. What de yer soy" said the
