Smoke ON Tap

We understand that some enterprisIng
young men oil this city, acting on the plan
of the steam supply company. are form
ing company TO supply smokers with
tobacco smoke. They will start up with
ca,,ital of $4,000, $4,000 OF which will
be invested in large meerschaum pipe,
something like cauldron kettle, to be
centrally located, from which service
pipes will reach in all directions. Pres
sure will be applied and the cool, pure
smoke forced through all the ramifications
of the system OF tubes. 1t il claimed by
the projectors that the plan possesses fea-
lures that will bring II at once into favor
| with smokers, and that il viii be much
| cheaper, besides doing away with the
trouble and annoyance OF keeping pipe
| tobacco-pouch and matches. 1t is esti-
| mated that the average smoker consumes
| AN hours time each day in keeping pipe
| in order, in burrowing tobacco, and in
| hunting up n match, which is liable TO 60
ont. which amounts To fifteen days time
| in a year, and this Mt three dollars day
amounts TO an aggregate of $40. All thi'
| will be saved by having convenient coil
| of tubing and nice amber mouth-piece
| which the smoker can take up at any time
and find alrcndy lighted and going" Ii
| is also shown that man who smokes n
pipe smokes more than is good for him, AZ
| he always smokes il out from force OF hab
| it, while, by the new plan he will only take
a few whifis TO take the rabit fur out ol
his mouth and clear his brain, when he
will lay the subject aside for further refer
ence. The company will guarantee first
class tobacco-no dog leg brand, or "dry
removal" stuff from the sewers being per
milted to be thrown in by the fireman a
the central ofiice-and the smoke will be
thoroughly denicotnized by passing il
through a tank oil rose water, thus avoid.
ing that unpleasant sensation caused by
tipping pipe up and getting taste ol
something like Lake Superior whisky ol
oil OF vitrol. Nothing will be left undon'
for the comfort OF patrons, and gentle
manly collector win call once month ant
take the meter. There does not seem tS
be any possible chance for the failure o
the scheme, and il is destined soon to ranl
along side OF the telephone and milk Wagon
as one Of the conveniencies and luxnrie
worked out for humanity by the inventive
genius of the nineteenth century. 1t vii
be nothing less than II giant stride In to

The Power of stron Drisk.
BY EMMA MoLLoY.

In the Michigan City prison there is n
sorrowful old mana life man. "Poor
old Nose" said one OF the officers to me,
"there Is life blighted by drink" He
once had beautiful family and thriv-
ing farm, and until he became the slave
of drink as the kindest of men in the
world. But it was the old story. He
"never intended to become drunkard," !"
but like hundreds of men to-day that,
moth like, Hutter in the light of this fame
fondly imagining they shall escspe its
scorching breath, he drank socially, and
finally sank lower, and lower, until his
property was rapidly wasting away. Then
death came into the home and the mother
and wife
Laid down life's weary load"
One, the dead form the gray head OF Old
| Nose bowed in silent agony. AT Last he
stole out of the little cottage, knelt under u
spreading oak, whose tall form lowered to-
ward the slara, and lifting his face henven-
ward. ar the night breezes tanned his
fevered cheek, he promised God that "while
that tree stood he would never drink again.
That to the motherless children he would
be a true father" The death of the pa
tient trusting wife left a feeling of tender
ness aud awe in his soul, M il God had
come out of the great shadow Of this affiic-
tiou to rescue him from his evil course.
| Four years rolled away, and the home
! was a happy one, because father was al
ways sober, and always kind. But one
day the denos Of desire again possa~sed
| him. He dared not break that solemn
| vow made to God under the stars, but he
took his NJ and felled the mighty oak TO
the ground. and then went to the saloon
and bought drink. and all day drank
hea willy, and at night, wild and ininriated
by liquor, with the same AK with which hs
had deliberately chopped down tho monu.
ment of that vow lie murdered his limo
cent and motherle-s boy. Poor, silent, old
man, There il always before him that
lair young face with ita blending look upon
il. He has suffered thonsand deaths III
the weary days of his incarceration. How
often that sad old face, furrowsd with
tears, rises before me as men and women
coldly say "The temperance movement
has no interest TO me-"
You think, my drinking friend, that j
would be impossible Tor you to commit III
horrible crime as this but | say to yo,
solemnly, il is 0ply the mercy OF God tina
has kept your hands from being stained
with blood. You have keen wild viii
drink. There have been periods when yol
could not recollect what you did or said
self-control was lost, the better nature la
in a death-hke swoon, while all the evil II
your being was thrice alive. No man VIII
drinks, needs to boast OF being better iha
poor old Mose, for il was not in his hear
10 do any body wrong.

SALOONS AND CRIME.

There ars nine counties in Indiana
which have not single saloon. They
have in State prison only one convict for
every 72l voters.
In eighteen other counties where saloons
abound there is one convict for every ~
voters.
That ia n reasonable result, that there
should be ten times as many convics in
saloon communities ns in sober ones. And
there are hundreds NO doubt of siniilsr in.
stances.
Maine has one convict for $500 inhabi-
tants; California has one IN State prison
for $40 inhabitants, and 1t is quite likely
that our city and county prisons, contain
ten times the number, that those in Maine
do; many of the latter are empty.
That the saloons are the cause of nearly
all our crimes and madness and poverty
and misery there is no doubt whatever
And when we say we are going to try tc
sxterminate the last saloon and brewery
and distillery, and save the children ol
to-day and future generations from drunk
enness and crime and beggery, we don'l
mean nor intend harm of any kind to any
body. We intend by destroying one bad
business, TO give n chance to five more peo
| Pile to engage in 4 good business. We can.
not stop a man from selling rum and poi
son aud death without giving him chanc
10 make more money at an honest business
where he can be 4 better, happier man

STEALS A PAIR OF SHOES
From a Chicago shoe store, and
Upon Being Pursued Jumps into
the Chi cago River and Tries
to Drown Himsei

This occurred one day last week, but he
was promptly rescued when it was learned
he WAS young man of good reputation
previously aud gave the excuse for CONF
mtling the theft that lie had been out of
work for some time, could get none and
needed the shoes badly.
Poor fellow, he dreaded to be taken be-
fore an earthly and yet he would boldly
plunge into the presence of n greater Judge.
"Our time is fixed, all our days are numbered.
How long, how short We know not; this We
know,
Duty requires we calmly wait the summons.
Nor dare to stir till Heaven shall give pc ermis-
sou.
Like Sentneis that must keep their destined
stand
And wait the appointed hour till they're relieved
Those only are brave who keep their guard.
And keep IL to the last. To run away
Is but a EDWARDS trick; to run away
From this worlds ills. that nj the worst
Will soon ol0w DER, thinking IN mend ourselves
BY buddy venmrng on world unknown,
And plunging headlong in the dark! Tis mad,
No frenzy half 80 desperate al this"
Had this unfortunate young man lived
in Toledo, the chances are he would have
found work and invested portion OF his
earnings in pair Of good shoes at A.
Gorden Colhoun's, 100 Summit 81. The
temptation to take pair would not have
occurred to him at all as Colhoun's prices
are much lower than the Chicago housei
and lower too than Toledo houses as well.
He keeps very large stock-sells at pop.
ular prices, thus making his extensive
Cash Shoe House at 100 Summit popular
with all classes. 10000 Pairs Of fine Boots
and Shoes now IN stock. Perrysburg peo-
