Talmage and the Tiger.

The following is an extract from the
Rev. Mr., Talmage's recent sermon on
gambling;
'In these two cities and this vicin-
ity are $500 professional gamblers.
As much as it is your business to i'm
port and sell goods or manufacture
goods, it is their business to dispoil ev-
cry one they can. In all these years
how many gambling houses have pro-
fessed to be honest? Nine. And these
nine were only antechambers to those
acknowledged to be frauds. We 90 a
hundred yards off Broadway. We pass
marble stairs. Aliveried servhnt meets
us at the door. The walls are tinted.
The room has & magnificent piece of
furniture whose cost cannot compute.
1t is roulette table. Near by is the
banqueting saloon; free drinks, free ci.
gars, everything free. Pictures of 'Jep-
tha's Daughter and of Dante's Frozen
Region of He'll on the walls-most ap-
propriate picture that last. Laughter.
"In the second,class gambling house
you are introduced to some roper-in.
There you 6nd the sanded cards, load
ed dice and mixed drinks. Pretty soon
your money is going to tune written
in short meter and with no staccato
passages. Laughter. Doesn't the
panther, crouching, ready to spring,
know a calf when he sees it? Don't
dare to wranggle for your rights in a
den like that. They will throw your
dead body into the streets.
"See the inside of pool.room. Two
numbers are saddle, three numbers
a gig, four numbers horse. Thous-
ands of men spring into the saddle,
mount the horse, ride pell-mel to per-
dition. The sign says Exchange 1t
is wonderfully significant sign, where
a man gives up wealth, honor and soul,
and gets in return loss of money, loss
of family, loss of eternal life.
ga great many people wonder why
men of education go down into evil
1t is easily explained. They may have
been born with a passion for hazard
1t is a joy to some people to go as neal
as possible to a precipice. They clint
the Jungfrau, not forthe landscape but
for the feeling which might happen il
they should fall. Such PERSONS blood
is exhilarated by skating near an all
hole. They delight to drive within
two inches of the edge of a bridge. D,
not blame such people for their passion,
but for the way they develop it. One
says, Here is $500. Shuttle the cards.
LostP Heart thumps, head dizzy
They have had the excitement.
"Some are drawn to gambling by
thirstfor gain. Professional gambler;
are such. They never drink too much
They see the money behind the dice
They are like spiders that appear to be
dead until the fly passes.
"When a young man Or an old mai
gets to living beyond his means, Satar
has bought him out. 1t is only 8
question of time when the goods will
be delivered"

war of 1912.

PAT And THE FROGS.
BY R. NJ. TUDOR.

The spring had come
With its gentle rain,
And the frogs, from
Their beds of mud
Walked up again;
Tuned up their pipes
OF various tones,
From the shrill piccolos
To the sturdy trombones.
They were chanting in concert,
With strains of great glee,
When Pat came along,
On pretty big spree.
No money had he
The "crathur" to buy,
And oh he was feeling
So terribly dry!
So the only chance left
For drink that he found,
Was the water that flowed
In the jolly frogs pond.
He came to the brink
With skip and leap"
When tempting small voice
Cried; "Knee.deep! knee-deep!"
"Thank you kindly" said Pat,
"Ye're right well behavin',
So I'll tax aft me brogues,
An me feet I'll be lavin'."
So he took off his boots,
And at once threw them down,
When a sepulchral tone
Said: "You'll dr-r-r-rOwn! You'll
dr-r-r.rOi0ni
"Howly Biddy," said he,
"Ips me narves ye'd be thryin'!
Ye're murtherin' set
OF thayes at yer lyin'l
Me names Paddy Finn,
o. the county o. Claff.yearl
So kom out, livery wan,
And I'll take the skalp aft yer
If ther's iver wan of yees
Has any spunkW
But the answer he got
Was: "You're dr-r-r-rmki You're
dr-r-r.runk!
"Drunk, am |? faith
An it's my way OF thinkin',
If I'd live as yees do,
I'd always be drinkin'!
Not wa-ther, but whisky
I'd live in, begun!
viii yees how'd yer hush, iver%
"More r-r.r-rum! more r-r-r.rumi
Pat picked up a stone,
Which he threw with his might,
And the voices at once
Were silenced outright.
So he put on his brogues,
On his way cogitating
Their want of politeness,
And manners berating.
Said he "Pd go bail, that
Ther'd be no more bother,
If whisky they lived in,
lnstid of cold wa-ther"

would resign, but under circumstances
such ss the present he would not resign if
fifty lodges signed.a circular without first
