The late DR.. TIollond speaks
these folciblr words through Serb.
ner's Moathly
"The appetite for strong drink
IN man has spoiled the life OF more
womer-ruined more hopes for
them, scattered more fortunes for
them, brought to them more sor-
row, shame and hardships--than
any other evil that lives. The
country numbers ten, nay hundreds
of thousands of women who are
widows to-day, aud sit IN the hope.
less weeds, because their husbands
have been slain by strong drink.
There are hundreds OF thousands
of homes scattered over the land,
In which live lives of torture, going
through all the changes Of suffer
ing that lie between the extremes
OF fear aud despair, because those
whom they love, love wine better
than they do The women they have
sworn to love. There are women
by thousands who dread to hear at
the door the step that once thrilled
them with pleasure, because that
step has learned to real under the
influence of the seductive poison.
There are women groaning with
pain while we write these words,
from bruises and brutalities inflic.
ted by the husbands made mad by
drink. There can be no exaggera-
tion in auy statement in regard to
this matter, because no human i'm.
agination can create anything
worse than tho truth, and no pen
is Capable of portIaing the truth.
The sorrows and horrors of u wife
with u drunkep husband ,ora mother
with q drunken son, are as near the
realization of hell as can be reached
iu this world ut least. The shame,
the Indignation, the sorrow, and
the sense OF disgrace for herself
and her children, the poverty, and
not unfrequent the beggary, the
fear and the fact 81 violence, the
lingering, lifelong struggle aud
despair of countless women with
drunken husbands, are enough to
make all women curse wine aud en-
gage unitedly to oppose it every
where as the worst enemy OF their
sex.r

II Want 10 Die Yours"
Sar,lis Star.

Sar,lis Star.
A few days since we overheard
this expression used by lady to II
gentleman. 1t impressed us as one
OF the most noble and unseltsh
sentiments of love aud devotion
ever uttered by woman to man.
This passionate declaration fell
from her lips with emphatic earn
estness, IN such stricking contrast
with the thoughtless utterance of
mere idle words of regard and at.
tachment, that the object recogniz.
I'd it AZ the genuine expression of
true love, stamped with the bright
hope and dealhless faith of which
"A woman so gentle and teuder is
susceptible. Beyond this man, the
idol of her heart, and the conpan.
ion of her dreams, she could see
nothing aud hope for nothing In all
the wi,le world. SO devoted and
uuselfsh was she, that sue was Oh
" too happy to gladly merge their
lives into Que, with the wish when
the hallowed bond is broken and
the silver chord loosed, IL want
to die yours!' These words, SO
plain aud simple, speak volumes.
They tell us that love is the life of
woman, while il is only an episode
OF man's existence; they tell us
that woman's love ID only one de-
gree removed from love divine;
they tell us that ben oath the bright
stars imam can have no greater
blessing, no friend SO true aud
sanity, no pearl so precious! Can
there be greater love and trust un
der the blue arching dome that
smiles and bends above usi yeri-
ly do we believe no human heart
has ever known, or can ever hope
to feel it. Happiest OF his kind do
we deem the man who is the fortu.
nate possessor of such q loving,
tender, trustful jewel of a woman,
There are few words in the English
language that can express more
fAllgitous Oh sublinier sentiment Of
love thau " | want TO die yours!' =

Wilt thou not pause and cease to pour

Why all this fret and hurryf
Dost thou not know that what Is best

THE KILLIGAN FAMILY.
A Short Account OF Their Re
ccpti0n.

N. O. Tines Democrat:
There is a great deal of watered
aristo cracy in New Orleans, as was
evidenced by reception given at
the uptown residence OF Mrs. Mar.
garet Killigan, In honor of her
daughter, Miss Florence KilIigan,
who is called a "dear sweet thing"
by her friends.
On the evening Of the reception,
Miss Florence was seated In the
parlor, surrounded by a crowd'ot
ardent admirers, when the conver.
sation turned upon her deceased
father.
"Do you know, Mr.. Billings,'
lisped Miss Florence; "my dear
father was quite a literary and in.
tellectual man, aud most OF his
work was very deep. He"
"Sure, right We are, me darlint,'

remarks were drowned by Miss
Florence rushing to the open piano
and singing "Co.hall me pet ma

the family ushered the angry old
lady out OF the parlor, aud Miss
Florence flushing her song turned
to Mr. Billings and said:

The Editor.

Boston Transcript:
The editor is member OF that
race of animals called mankind. He
is invariably a kind man.
He is perfectly harmless. You
may go into bis den: without fear.
But he has peculiarities. The sight
of II poet makes him wild. He is
then very dangerous, and is apt to
do bodily harm to all within reach.
He is also much wrought up whrn
man comes in with Il little trifle
he has just dashed of.
There is one thing that must Le
sait IN the editors praise. His mind
is so biassed by long thinking in n
certain direction that he dislikes
very much to look npon both sides
of II question. Therefore, it you
value your safety, never approach
him with manuscript written on
both sides OF your paper.
The editor usually writes with u
pen, but his cutting articles are the
product of his shears.
And let me say right here that a
good deal OF sheer nonsense has
been printed about the editor. lie
uses his shears only when compos.
iug an entirely original article.
The editor would make II good
public speaker but for his propens-
lty tor clipping words.
The editors hardest task is to
dispose OF his time. His would be
a monotonous lite indeed, were it
not tor the kindness of the few
hundred people who call upon him
every day to enliven his dull life
with stories OF their grievances, of
their brand new enterprises, and
with antediluvian anecdotes. When
you grow up to be men and women.
children, remember this, and spend
all tue time you can in the sanctum
of the editor. He loves company
so much, you know, aud sometimes
he has to sit silent and alone tor a
whole half minute. lis 1t not too
bad
The business of the editor Is 70
entertain itinerant lectures, book
canvassers, exchange tiends, and
other philauthropists. He gives
his whole day to these. He writes
his editorials at hight, after he has
gone to bed.
The editor is never so happy MS
when he is writing complimentary
notices. For ten cents worth ol
presents he will gladly give ten
dollars worth OF advertising-all
on account of the pleasure 1t gives
him to write, you know.
He loves also to write neat little
speeches, and bright, witty poems
tor people without brains who wish
to speak in public. 1t is so easy
for him to do this that he is some.
times quite miserable when an hour
or two passes without an opportu.
nifty to do something of the kind.
The editor dimes ut oil the hotels
free, he travels free, theatres open
wide their doors to him, his tailor
clothes him gratis, his butcher and
grocer furnish him with food with.
out money and without price. In
short, his every want is provided
for. He spends bis princely salary
in building churches AMI school
houses in foreign lands.
BY all means be editors. Or
course, it would be better If you
coNld be hOd .carriersor dray horses.
But as that is impossible, by all
means be editors.
