 This is going the rounds It IS said in the Bible that, '.Jacob kissed Rachel, and lifted up his voice and wept. Now why did Jacob cry over such very proper act of his That is the question. Some foolish persons might think it was because he thought the color fast and the paint came off, was what made him weep, but that is a mistake. The true reason was because it was so awfully nice and he wanted to kiss her again, and he wept because he caught glimpse of her ''other feler" coming up the garden walk, and was afraid and dare'nt do it.

Is Total Abstinence, Bigotry7

The Springfield Republican criticises what it terms the Hgotry of temperance men:
 They ann to suppress drunkenness, but they denOunce other people, not 0runkards. who are working for the same end. They demand that person to deserve their cooperation should be total ahstainer and prOhibitionist. It is only one step farther in bigotry t6 de inaad that he should have been at some time a drunkard There might, in fact, be still higher castes forned-first of those who have been reformed twice; second. of those who had deliriam tremens; third, of those who had in drunkenness kicked their wives and SC on,- each superior in moral. purpose and civil sa gacity to the one below. i..-
 This is more funny than fair. Total ab- stinence men believe what they preach. Thev think that both the good of society and their individual welfare requires the practice of to- ! tai abstinence. From their point of view, the example ot the liquor drinker is evil, and evil always If his drinking is habitual, and he is materially injured by it, his vice may, indeed, be less dangerous to others than 1 to himself; but if he can endure the habtual ! use of liquor without injury, then his example 1 is the more dangerous, because ittempts others to risk that must be fatal to considerable pro- ! portion of them. No doubt reformed orators are often the objects of much injudiclous enihus
 iasm. Yet no man can speak so feelingly of vice, as he who has been subject to it. Of one sad fact we may be certain: reformed drunk ards deserve all the help and sympathy we can give thsn, and all the help and sympathy we can give them will save but few.
 One of those trials which are the delight of the sensational newspaper, but which are not
 0 popular with those who care for just ad. ministration of the law, occurred in North Carolina, last week. A young woman had taken to bad ways and was an inmate of a house of i'll fame. Her brother came to the place aad deliberately emptied his revolver
 into her body. He was tried. convicted, and sentenced to be hung but the higher court gave him new trial. Last week he had his second trial and was acquitted He was afRanced to a young lady whose devotion to hin,
 during the first trial won her much
 praise. So far all is romantic and consistent
 but now comes the comic twist. This young
 lady had two other lovers; agreed to marry one; and. on the day set for the wedding, about two months since, lnarrled the other.
