Will this disgusting nonsense never

there is no truth in it. 1t has never

neglect to thank the man who gave
up his seat to her. In the next place,
what difference does it make whether
the man is thanked or not? 1t is the
mans duty to be chivalrous and OBJ
iging to women and children, whether
their thanks are returned or not. It
is poor mean spirit that leads big

Effects of Liquors.

Cheap brandy and absinthe are the
cause Of large proportion of cases OF
insanity in parts of France. The
United States Consul at La Rochelle.
in his report on French brandies,
points out the fact that no pure
brandy is now made in Cognac and
the district adjacent. He says that
German alcohol, distilled from pota-
toes, is imported, doctored, and sold
for brandy, and that the French arti,
sans and peasants, who formerly used
light wines have of late years used
much of this so-called brandy. He
says: "Its characteristic effect is to
produce an intoxication in which the
patient is especially inclined to rage
and physical violence, while hopeless
insanity is the inevitable consequence
of persisting in its use, even for rel
atively short period of time" 1t is
at least worth the physicians while
to know there is no such thing as
pure Cognac now.

Some poet has said that "All tor

contrary Indigestion the villain of
the tragedy played among the gastric

double discount the horrors Of jeal-

BY MISS JOSEPHINE POLLARD.

Five cents glass!,' Does any one think
Five cents glass; hear you say,
why, that isn't very much to pay"
9on ape nssn9 over Wyx nqer and thumb
And If that were all that you gave away,
1t wouldn't be very much to pay.
The price of drink? Let him decide
Who has lost his courage and lost his pride,
Not far removed from beast, to-day.
The price of drink! Let that one tell
Who sleeps tonight in murderer's cell,
And feels within him the fires ofhell.
Honor and virtue, love and truth,
All the glory and pride ofyouth.
Hopes of manhood. the wreath of fame,
High endeavor and noble aim,
These are the treasures thrown away
AS the price of drink, from day TO day.
Five cents glassr' How Satan laughed,
As over the bar the young man quaffed
The terrible work that drink would do;
And ere the morning the victim lay
With his blood swiftly ebbing away;
And that was the price he paid. alas
For the pleasure of taking social glass.
The price of drink! If you want to know
What some are willing to pay for it, go
Through that wretched tenement over there,
Where foul disease, like vampire. crawls
NTH wings S'er the mouIdy S walls.
Wiid-eyed as demons for lack of food;
There shame, in a corner, crouches low;
There violence deals its cruel blow;
And innocent ones are thus accursed
To pay the price of another's thirst.
Five cents a glassr, oh, If that were all,
The sacrifice would, indeed be small,
But the moneys worth is the least amount
We pay; and whoever will keep account
Will learn the terrible waste and blight
That follows the ruinous appetite.
Five cents glass! ~ Does any one think
That that is really the price of a drink?
