The Mikado of Japan is a firm believer in
European ideas and customs and wants to
ciyilize. /. e., Europeanize his country. The
European system of education was estab-
lished i'm Japan some years ago; street cars
and Krupp guns followed, and everything
promised rapid movement towards complete
civilization. But there was one thing lack

The Japanese are an abstemious and sober
race. They have neither wine nor whisky;
not single popular intoxicating drink. When
the youthful Japanese wants to get on a
tear" he fills himself with strong tea, and
the hen-pecked husband has no other means OF
drowning his SORROWS save in a cup of tea.
When the Mikado of Japan looked around
and saw this disgusting, uncivilized sohriety

heart boiled within him with anger, and the
whole ministry was called in to explain this
wonderful lack of japanese enterprise.
Us this what you call civilizing Japan?" he
angrily demanded Of them. England is civ
ilized, and has its million drunkards. In
America, half of the life of the leading men is
devoted to getting drunk, while Japan is
sober, disgustngly sober My country is be-
hind the age. This evil must be cured at

The ministry put their heads together,
and resolved to introduce some intoxicat-

finally agreed on as the drink, for many rea-
sons. The materials for whisky and wine are
scarce in Japan, and the ministers feared the
sudden use of whisky by a people who had
never drank it might exhilerate them too
much, and cause riot or revolution.

One OF the advantages of having hell
Ii we'll shown in the Rev. Mr.. Hammond's
great success as a revivalist, The Rev. Mr..
Hammond travels around the country

shell he would be wholly powerless. He
pictures the horrors of everlasting damnation

and shrieks Of the accurscd, the stencil OF the

army Of the converted. Mr.. Hammond began
the business with revival at Roches-
Arr House OF Refuge some time ago
where he met with singular success
He was accordingly retained by Mr. Elisha
M. Cooper, of the New York Juvenile Asylum,
To try his hand there; and try it he did last
week with hattering success. The six hun
drca and fifty children OF the Asylum were
brought up, and Rev. Mr.. Hammond
Turned loose upon them. The children'

INV religious feelings when first called up,
and appeared to regard the whole affair rather
carelessly; but when, after few preliminary
remarks, MrHammond launched his he'll
an their devoted heads, all was changed. The
newspapers frankly admit that he outdid
himself on this particular occasion.
Thinking the asylum children more wicked
shan others from their lack Of early guidance,
he nut little more birthstone than usual in
his hell and heated it several degrees hotter.
His picture of "hell' was, all the papers de-
Nraare. the most graphic and terrible ever

itSand Millions hell, q mere farce. The re-
salfwas quick and general, Juvenile peni-
tents crowded forward by the hundred, and
when the reyivalist had completed his re-
marks the number of converted, earnest and
ahopeful' Christians, from eight years up,
was over four hundred.
AR. Hammond deserves, of course, great
credit for his noble work. We do not think,
however. he ought to claim, as he does, hav-
INC invented it. 1t is an idea as old as nurses,
who is there of us but can remember how our
nurse in days long past, scared us into good

From time immemotial medical men have re-
garded gin az one of the best duretics and the
disuse 1t has fallen into of late years must be
attributed rather to the inferiUrty of the article
in the market than to The fickleness Of physi-
cinns In substituting some other remedy for It,
We know there are many physicians who pre-
scribe alcohol Ms o remedial agent In every
disease. and under all circumstances. II Ia not
our intention, however. TO discuss this ques-
ton now, but simply to confess our prediction
for stimulants In very many diseases. and are
certain that we have saved many lives by their
administration which would otherwise have
been lost. Mr.. Wolfe, we consider. he's supplied
a desideratum. the want.ef which has long been
felt by the profession land we might also say by
the public. In importing an article OF gin supe-
rior to any other we have ever tasted. and we
have no hesitation In recommending 1t. In

The bridge across Deckers Dreek
has been repaired under the supervis-
ion of VIM, j. Wells, road surveyor
of that precinct and by order of Coun-
ty Court. The Carpenter work was
done by Jas. Wright assisted by his
son Ed. and is complete job. The
wagon track is widened two feet and
the foot walk raised about six inches
above it. Using the old flooring it
did not take much new lumber. The
bridge is now frescoed and chromoed
with John Robinson's great show bills,
and it is altogether pleasant place to
make visit to particularly so, when
we compare its present condition with
that of several years past. BY the
way VIM. j. Wells is one of our good
solid citizens. He owns the Domain
farm near town, to which he moved
several years ago from Washington
county Pa. We wish plenty more of
Pennsylvania's good men and wool
growers would Settle in old Monon-
gala and help develop our rich hills.
