A Hint to Dram Drinkers.

Barkeepers pay, on an average, 81 per
gallon for whiskey. One gallon contains an
average of sixty-five drinks, and at ten
cents drink the poor man pays $3.50 per
gallon for his whiskey. In other words,
he pays 80 for the whskey and $3.50 to a
man for handing it over the bar. While
it would be better for all not to drink.
some men will have whiskey, aud my adj
vice TO them is this; Make your wife your
barkeeper, Lend her 81 to buy gallon
of whiskey for beginning, and every time
you want drink go to her aud pay ten
cents for it. BY the time you have drank
gallon she will have $3.50, or enough
money to refund the 81 borrowed of you, to
pay for another gallon of liquor, and have a
balance of $3.50. She will be able to con-
duct future operations on her own capital,
and when you become an inebriate, unable
TO support yourself, Stunned and despised
by respectable people, your wife will have
enough money to keep you until you get
ready to fill a drunkard's grave. But had
you paid all this money 10 barkeeper, he
would not have given cent to bury you, or
a crust of bread TO keep your children from
starving.
Few people ever stop TO calculate the cost
of dranidrinking. At ten cents per drink,
one drink per day will cost $1,000 per year
two drinks per day will cost S73; three
drinks, Sl00.50, and four drinks SAG per
year.
A man came to me the other day to pay
the interest on a note of 500 hold against
him. Said he, | only receive 5000 year
and with family to support | am not able
to pay my debts" asked him TO take a
pencil and make slight calculation for me,
and then asked him how often he drank at
the bar. His average was three drinks per
day, which by his own calculation amounted
to SlO9.50, or enough TO have paid both prin-
cipal and interest Of the note and have $3.50
left. lie was astonished at the discovery
and is now determined never to drink at q
bar again.-CampbeEs Lecture at Mansfield
Kentucky.

Prohibition Docs Prohibit.

Rev. DIR. Cyrus Hamlin, ID. d., late Presi-
dent of Robert College, Constantinople,
Turkey, but now Professor in the Theologi-
cal Seminary at Bangor, Maine, gives I'M
doubted evidence as to the glorious results
of prohibition in that state
Maine being my native state, and not
having resided in it for forty years, my re-
turn to it led me to examine with great in
terest the Maine law and its workings.
have been through the state in various di.
rections, from kittery to Calais; have at
tended the public meetings in many Of the
counties, and have had intercourse with men
who have known the state all their lives.
am prepared to maintain this proposition
with regard to the Maine law:
1t is an " incalculable blessing" to all
the owners of real estate. This is the chief
reason why the state has not been ruined in
these hard times. 1t has almost annihiated
drunkenness among the farmers. The farms
have prospered and the buildings and roads
have wonderfully improved throughout the
state. The most intelligent men attribute
this largely to the Maine law.
1t is a boon to all manufacturers. Their
men work better. Produce more and break
and injure less. Manufacturers have told
me that they could not get on successfully
with rum shops around them, nor would
they attempt it. 1t is nearly an equal bless
ing to the lumber men.
As to crime, found the Jail of Oxford
county empty, and have been assured the
same is often true of other counties Pau
perism is hardly known except in the cities
| inquired of man how many paupers he
had in his town, and he said there were
none. There were people more or less poor
and there might be some so poor as to be
helped by their friends; but a town paupel
would be town disgrace.
There were certain cities-Portland, Lew
iston, Bangor, Calais, etc.-wheren this
state oil things is different. Cities will al
ways have class that will evade all law
The Maine law is to some extent evaded il
the cities, and there is found most of tn,
crime and pauperism Rum is brought o.
Struggled in in every possible way. Ever
there, however, the evil is diminished, ant
as public sentiment becomes more sound
stronger measures will be restored to. The
whole rum interest has fallen into the vilesi
class, who defy public sentiment, and like
thieves and tramps, look only to what they
can get without too much danger.

Quebec Agriculture.

Whilst Vermont has thought fit to sus-
pend the publication of her Agricultural
Reports, owing to the enormous cost of one
two-hundredth part of mill to each inhabi-
tant every two years which they involved,
the neighboring Province of Quebec has COM
menced to issue monthly illustrated jour
nal of agriculture, printed both in English
and French, Of which twenty thousand
copies are to be gratuitously distributed
among the people for the purpose of help
ing, by the spread of timely information,
the development of the agricultural re-
sources of the Province. The first number
of this journal has been sent us by the
Provincial Director of Agriculture, Hon.
Ed. A. Barnard, and it certainly bids fair,
under his intelligent supervision, to accom-
plish the purpose designed. 1t is well edited
in all its departments, agricultural, horti-
cultural and veterinary, the latter being
under the charge of the able Professor Nc.
Eachran, of the Montreal Veterinary College
while horticulture is treated with skill by
prominent members of the Montreal Horti
cultural Society. The illustrations are pro
fuse and well engraved, adding much to the
value of the text. We welcome the publ.
cation heartily to our exchange list. The
gratuitous distribution is limited to the
membership of the agricultural and horti
tural societies of the Province; to other;
the subscription price is one dollar year
Those desiring to see specimen copy, or tc
become subscribers, can do so by addressing

Father Mathew Reformation.

Canon Farrar, addressing the Friends
meeting upon temperance, thus referred to
the influence of one of their body " II was
William Mackin who had the honor of con-
verting to this cause Theobald Mathew, he
(Wiliam Mackin) being also a member of
the Society of Friends. Mathew was work
ing hard as Roman Catholic priest among
the degraded population of Cork, and one
day on William Mackin visiting the hospital
he saw a sight which you may see any day in
any London hospital-the sight of numbers
brought there by the appalling diseases and
brutal violence of drink-and turning round
to the Young Catholic priest, with his heart
stirred within him. he said Oh, Theobald
Mathew, what highest thou not do if thou
woudst take part in this great work +
Young Mathew thought of it. For several
days it was in his mind for several nights
it kept him almost sleepless, and at last,
after long prayer he came TO the determine
ton, and rising up. he said words which
have since become so memorable Here
goes, in the name of God That was how
Theobald Mathew-guided influenced con-
verted to the cause by a member of the Society
of Friends-began crusade which, for the
time being, did much to cripple the whisky
trade in ireland, and which was carried also
to the work in which we are engaged. IL
was incidentally through him Gather Mat
hew) that DIR. Guthrie became an abstainer.
You know he was being driven in a part Of
Ireland one very rainy day, and he went into
public house to get little whisky, under
the mistaken notion (Which is not even dis
PEELED YETI that thereby he could keep out
the cold. He said to the poor drenched car
driver, Won't you come in and have some
thing 2 He replied, Faith, won't touch
a single drop of it. How is that ? said
Dr. Guthrie. lie had taken the pledge from
Father Mathew. DIR. Guthrie, thinking over
IT, considered that here was poor, unedu-
Gated peasant who was strong enough TO
resist temptation because he saw it would
lead to his own ruin, and DIR. Guthrie
thought if the car-driver was strong enough
to exercise that resolution he ought to be-
Thus it was that he became an abstainer,
and carried on the work in Scotland, and
through him thousands in England and
Scotland carried it on also. Therefore you
are obliged, as members of this society, not
only by the general traditions of the body to
which you belong, but also their special in
fluence in the particular work in the past, tc
promote it."-Leisure Hour.
