The Evils ct Hot Bread

There is no law in the country to
prevent the consumption of hot
bread but the law of common sense,
and unfortunately that is a dead
letter as a governing principle in
the lives of a great many people.
That hot bread in nine cases out OF
ten will produce dyspepsia IS no
newly discovered fact, and this ter
rible result is sure to follow pei
sistent indulgence on the part of
those whose pursuits are quiet in
doors and sedentary. And yet the
reformers, or those who call them
selves such-the men and women
who work themselves into a white
heat over the sale of glass of cider
will go on year after year, not
only making no outcry against this
pernicious indulgence, but actually
filing themselves up day after day
with the hot and poisonous gasses
of the oven. This servant of the
house wife can be made as terrible
stomach destroyer as the distillery
and the sworn foes Of the latter are
apt to be its best patrons. Dyspep-
STA paints the nose and sours tne
temper as surely as dram drinking,
and many sufferers from the form
err. though by their own wiilful acts
| inveigh the most loudly against the
latter. A we'll defined case of jim:
| Jams is the climax to a course OF IN
temperance, and warns the victim
that his alternative is death or i'm
mediate reformation. But the dys
pepsia that hot bread, mince pie ano
| denominations cause, has no suddet
warnings. The man who uses then
goes on making both himself ane
those around him wretched, and re
fuses to acknowledge that he IS ;
sinner above those whose hghte
faults he tiercely condemns.-An1er
lean Miller.

What Cooperation Does.

The following tabular statement
which is based upon actual expert
ence and is far below the success of
many cooperative stores in this
country, will show the advantages of
Patrons having their own stores and
buying from themselves. The calcu-
lation is made for Il years, beginning
with an. investment of $40, allowing
10 per cent interest per annum, pur-
chases to the amount of 500 annu-
ally, 10 per cent net profit on sales,
and 20 per cent accumulation:

Slaughter OfYOung Men.

Extract from Talmages Last Sermon.
There is nothing in the voice or man
ner of the butcher to indicate to the OK
that there is death ahead. The OK
thinks it is on the way to the pasture
field of clover where he will all day
revel in the herbaceous luXurlance.
But after while a group of men and
BOYS close in around him and with sticks
and stones and shout, drive him through
bars and into door, where he is tied,
and with well-aimed blow the AK fells
him; and so his expectations of the red
oIent pasture is a disappointment. So,
many young man is driven on by
temptation toward what he supposes
paradisaical enjoyments. But after
awhile influences of harder hue and
swathier arm close in about him for his
destruction and he finds that instead OF
n,aking an excursion in a garden he
has been going as and OK to the slaugh-
ter. When young men are ruined we
are apt to blame them, when we ought
more vehemently to blame their DIES
troyers. Society slaughters grea

penslve cigars, wine and brandy as
many friends, and live in as fashionable
boarding house. IF you cannot do
this on your salary, borrow it. Make
wrong entry or take an occasional
Dill out of the bundle of bank bills; you
will be able to pay it some future time.
You will have to cover it up only for a
few months or year." By that pro-
cess hundred thousand young men
have been slaughtered. Suppose you
borrow. There are thousand circum-
stances in which it is right to borrow.
There are few men who have not some
time been obliged to borrow money.
The largest estates have been built upon
borrowed dollar But there are two
kinds of borrowed money-money Dor
rowed to start or keep up legitimate
enterprise, and money borrowed to get
things that you may do without. The
first kind is honorable, the second
blasting. If you have money enough
of your own to buy plain but respect
able coat and you borrow money for a
dandy's outfit you are one revolution of
the wheel ON the down grade. To Dor
row for the necessities may be well; to
borrow for the luxuries tips over your
prospects the wrong way. The bible
says the borrower is servant to the
lender. 1t is bad S1on uhnn YOU 90
ID, yonle other street to avoid meet
ing some man to whom you owe money.
IF young men knew the despotism of
being in debt more Of them would keep
out of it. What did it do for Lord
Bacon, with a mind towering above the
centuries? Induced him to take brides
and convict himself before all the ages
as a criminal. What did it do for
Walter Scott? Broke his heart at
Abbottsford and kept him writing till
his hand gave out in paralysis to keep
the sheriff away from his pictures and
statuary. Better, if in its highest
sense, he had observed the two words
he had chiseled over his kitchen fire
place at Abbottsford: "Waste not,
want not" What did it do for Robert
Burns? Sent him to hard drinking
and to begging for seven pounds and
four shillings to pay for a volunteers
uniform. What did it do for Lord
Byron and his mother? She died in a
fit from rage at reading the upholster's
bills. William Pitt, able to manage
the finances of England, could not man,
AGE his own and was in constant morti-
fcation, and after his death parliament
voted 100000 to pay his debts
although his salary had been at least
$50, 900 Tie trouble is that men dc
not understood the ethics of debt, anC
that if you borrow money or make pur
chases wsth no prospect Of meeting
your obligations you steal just tina
amount. If [ buy sugars, coffees anc
