The following is a translation of a
paragraph found in the writings of Prof
Won Liebig, the distinguished German
chemist: The white wines are hurtful
to the nervous system, causing trembling,
confusion of language, and commissions.
The stronger wines, such as champagne,
rise quickly to the head, but their effects
are only of short duration. Sherry and
strong cider are more quickly intoxica-
ting than the generality of wines, and
they have a peculiar influence on the
gastric juices of the stomach. The IN
toxication of beer is heavy and dull, but
its use docs not hinder the drinker from
gaining flesh. The drinkers of whiskey
and brandy are going to certain death.
Red wine is the least hurtful, and, in
some cases, really beneficial "

Mary Clemmer's Home Life.

We all like to know the home life of
prominent people: to see the light re-
feeted out upon the world from happy
hearthstones. A correspondent Of the
Chicago Times has written so prettiiy
about the gifted lady, whom so many
love, that We reproduced it IN onr col
umns:
Mary Clemmer's letters are probably
the best known, the best written of all

from the capital. 1t is eleven years
since | first read her flesh, bright des-
cription of the great men and strange
customs of Washington. 1t is eleven

tired young mothers who have read her
letters while they have rocked their babes

work baskets; the gay woman whose

covered by vines, on Capitol hill, in
sight Of the great capitol building-itsell
an inspiration-high up, and overlooking
the city and the Potomac. A little black
housemaid opens the door, and says Miss
Mary is at tea. A hall with a dark
bare floor spread about by rugs; parlor
with carpet of gray velvet, bordered by
blu- and naruun, chairs In white covers;
curtains srisp and frosty; pictures on the
walls; pictures on easels; room heated
from unseen fires; fragrance Of roses in
the warm air. Before we are seated the
back parlor door opens, and our hostess
comes In with manner of naturalness
and sincerity reassuring. She is younger
than | expected, scarcely thirty-fve
Her form is tall and elegant, she wears
black grenadlne trailing in the stylish
way that only tall people can manage
A narrow pink ribbon is tied about her
waist in girlish loops, and bit of the
same ribbon fastens her linen collar.
Her arms are plump and white and
braceleted, and shown to advantage by
elbow sleeves. There are no ink stains
On her fingers, nor ragged hose p,eping
above her neat slippers, nor any sugges-
ton of the blue stocking in look or con-
versation. She talks of her flowers, and
We bend together overthe vases filled by
roses, that are scattered over the tables
