A LESSON ON "NIPS."

awe won't put down that ar nlpi
and his precept is followed by many,
regardless of the fact that the very
"nips" neglected to be scored be-
come a fruitful source Of intemper'
ance; and "nips," whether recoIlect
ed or ignored, produce the same re,
sults-produce the great majority OF
of "nips" that in the end squeeze a
man to ruin in business, loss Of pro
perty and reputation, invite sickness
and infamy, the prison walls, the
pauper's grave, the broken hearts at
home, the wandering abroad, the
murderer's knife, the hangman''
rope, and the un'imeiy snip" Of the
bony fingers of death.
"Nips," when once INDUCED in,
increase with alarming rapIdliy. The
one of to day prepares for large'
and more frequent one tomorrow,
ane so on ad inGnitum, And just a.

blazoned as Infamous on the statute
books is the inviting Of the devi,
to snip" your soul, and be certain
he will not lose the opportunity.
With the nips Of alcoholic drinks
come others, train SO long and
blasting and fatal that one would
think, in this enlightened age, there
would be nc necessity of warning
against them. DEBT follows ever
upon their heels. The landlord and
the richly dressed aud bediamoned
barkeeper will not neglect to "put
it down." though you may; AND
YoU PAY FOR ALL THEIR sPLENDoR,
You, the poor victim Of the nipping
of rum. Poverty comes, an unfail
ing attendant in the train. The
home that was once happy, and
where food were plenty, becomes
barren. The wife who gave loving
trusting and truthful heart becomes
a wreck, is hurried to an untimsly
grave, and your children are sent on
into the world to beg or steal, ard
the girls to dishonor, to sell them
selves, body and soul. for bread and
clothing. Business is nipped in the
bud. No man will trust another who
"nips," and don't you forget it that
the very ons who himself INDUCES,
who feeds your appetite, who grows
rich out Of your blood and muscle,
who lures you to disgrace, will be

Is there any question about this ?

who inclinSs to "nips" /? Does the
owner of a ship hire a captain who

The Rats and The Rata Fable.

Once upon q time, lot of hum
cry rats, who had devoured all the
food within their reach in the hold
of the goodly ship on which they
had taken passage, and who feared
that they might not obtain more,
bethought them Of boarding an
other craft and gorgipg themselves
on the good things stored away in
her. So, with one accord, they all
made great speed and hurried
aboard of her, some by the gang
plank, some by the cables, all by
the nearest road, and soon were
snugly ensconced and looking for
good places where there was plenty
of provender. Those who were the
most crafty speedily began to feed
upon the fattest chooses. But
others were less lucky or less sly,
and were unable to appease the
pangs of the hunger that was
preying upon their vitals by prey
ing upon the victuals of the ship.
But while some were thus eating,
and some were we'll nigh starving,
behold, an old rat, who had long
been known for his skill In looking
out for himself, espied that the ves-
sci was like to sink; for although
she was new, nevertheless she was
far from seaworthy, as she was
built of rotten lumber and badly
put together. Thereupon the
shrewdest of the rodents did take
the alarm and with one accord be-
gan to look around for some means
whereby they might escape from
the sinking ship and make their
way back to those they had left;
and espying some scattered pieces
ofall the craft they flung themselves
thereupon and did essay to make to
themselves raft, hoping to keep
themselves from sinking in the
water till they could float unper-
ceived to the sounder vessels. But,
alas, these pieces they could not
securely join together, and the rats,
heavy with the piunder they had
taken away, and soon the luckless
vermin sank out of sight in the
ocean.
MoRAL:-Certain politicians who
are attempting to find their way
back to their old parties on a raft
constructed of materials from four
tickets, would better go gently
down with the sinking ship.
