Tho young man gases at him with the
unfiinching gaze of citizen who knows
his rights and the railroad law.

said, detiantly; "and that ticket is good
until it is used"

young mans defiant attitude: "of
course 1t is. But it has got TO be used on
its own road, and as this is a Wabash
excursion ticket of last summer, from
Peru to Lafayette, yon will have TO gel

And the young man read the ticket
carefully and paid his fare, planking
down the ten cents extra for having no

Drinking Is q main cause for insani.
IT,. Alcohol flies to the brain. and moi
nnfrequently dethrones reason. and
leaves Its victim helpless idiot. or .
raving maniac. Drinking parents he
get imbecile or insane children. Dr..
Howe OF Boston, tells US, that ont OF
three hundred inmates Of the asvlnm
there, he knew that one hundred and
forty-seven had drunken parents. In
addition to degrading the mental pow.
ers OF otherwise perfectly sane persons,
drinking developes tendencies that al.
ready exist. As there are grades be.
tween soundness and insanity We ali
know "eccentric," "highty," or weak
minded people. Alcohol liquors readi-
ly effect such, and numbers Of inmates
OF our asylums are people Of this class,
who have had the lettering balance OF
their reason completely upset by drink

on account OF losses by intemperance.

THE LEONARD ScOTT Publishing Co.
The Leonard Scott Publishing Co.,
IL Barclay Street, N. Y.,thave issued
their reprint of Blackwood's Magazine
for January, and the present number is
one of unusual interest. Perhaps the
paper which invites the most attention
is in the form of letter written by a
Turk who is highly educated and has
been an extensive traveller. In view
of the contemplated reforms in Asia
Minor his theory as to the origin and
nature of the collision between the
East and the West is we'll worth con-
sidering; and IL will be q surprise 10
many to hear the opinion of an intelli-
gent man that "the consequence of the
arrival of the so-called Christian in a
heather country Is, not to bring immor-
tai life, but physical and moral death, I"
and that "froh. first to last the woes OF
Turkey have been due to its contact
with modern Christendom."
Other articles are q continuation of
"Bush Life in Queensland" in which
the interest Is well sustained. This
number describes the sheep washing
and shearing, horse-brcaking, and q
fearful ride bare-backed on an Gun
tanned fiery" bull; and GLOW 1 Fell
Among Thieves" an amusing appeal to
legislative aid TO protect the unwary
from being trapped into making we'd
ding presents.
There is a long review of the Roman
Breviary, translated by the Marques of
Butte, giving an account of the ordinary
public worship of the modern Roman
Catholic Church; and the book IL
commended to the Roman Catholic
Church laity as giving them an oppor-
tunity Of studying in English the de-
votions which are binding on their
clergy and on the members OF the vari-
Gus religious orders.
Several other articles we'll worth
