Gloriously Drunk

There are variety of styles aud pat
terms OF crunk men, al OF them more or
less absurd and dlsagreeable. There is
tue glorious, the stupid, the pugnacious.
the confidential, the weeping. the loqua-
clous, and the morose drunk man, besides
many other minor varieties. In this arti-
Gle We shall confine ourselves TO the man
VINO gets gloriouslv drunk. He is the
least objectionable of all the men who get
drunk. he Is usually man Of generous
impulses, broad and liberal views, sar-
g'iine temperament, warm hearted and
soclable. The misery. mean, stingy, or
small souled men are seldom seen glorlously
drunk. Either because they lack enter
p'ise or because they dread the expense
consequent On q glor ous drunk, they con-
| fine themselves to solitary and economical
| tipping from bottle that they keep on
the upper shelf in the closet at home
| You can never tell bv looking at a man,
when be is sober, what kind of drunk
man he would develop into, if be had the
opportunity and tue requisite intoxlcants,
/ but you can be pretty sure that the niggard,
or the man who changes dime on Sunday
morning that he may have nickel to put

Gus drunk.
The man who becon(s slorlously drunk
is usually ripe between l and O'clock
a. m. when, if he is>hot harvested by hi.
friends and hackman, is liable to be ar
rested He takes more enjoyment out Of
a drunk than any Of the varieties of bac
chanaIian revelers. His views of lif,
broaden out and his contempt for the de-
tails and worries Of business strengthen al
he warns up under the influence of sue
cesslve glasses Of his favolite beverage
If clouds of adversely or trouble have filled
the horizon of his every day life, thes,
clouds grow with rose tints or dlsappea
altogether before the deceptive influence
OF the golden liquid as he sucks it through
a straw, and tells the barkeeper to "charg
them to me- He ''sets 'em up" with
muniticent liberality, not only to hi
friends, but tc any chance acquaintance
or even strangers that may be in tn
saloon.
AS he warns up he Is apt to break fort,
into song. His favorte selections are G
the ''Drrve- -dull-care away" and Won't
go-home-t -till-mornlng' class, and he is ex
tremely partial to anything with Hip
Hip, Hurah! chorus to it, When b
reaches the musical period OF his drunk
he usually has his hat on one side of hi
head and mud on his coat tail. The ma
who gets ylorlously drunk never does any
thing by halves. He is sure to get glori
ously sick next morning. He is not
habitual drunkard (the latter never ge,
glorlous), but merely once In a while
without premeditation, he meets a coup
of friends whom he has not seen for SON
time, the temptation-and the liquor
} too strong, and the result the next morl
ing, IS headache, brandy and soda, an
a determination never to do so any NOR,
His two friends usually belong to the 70,
ally and the bolsterously drunk class.

The students bought the poor fell
lows apples at their own price, and he
offered Giles all he was worth if he
would come and cure him. He drove
off in great alarm, feeling very weak
and complaining that the pain in his
heart was increasing.
On the road beyond the village be
met some more students, who looked
at him in surprise and alarm, injuiling
how he felt, and assured him he was
very III, and threatened with the
plague-if, in fact. re had not got it
already.
He finally reached home more dead
than alive, informed his parents of
what had occurred, took to his bed and
gradually grew worse. In spite of his
protestations they sent for doctor
but it SO happened that the latter was
away on a consultation in a peighbor-
ing town, and did not return in time
to see him the next day.
The day following, young Giles, with
several others went to visit him and re
port upon the case. They found him
with high fever, covered with quilts
complaining of cold and Intense anguish
about the heart, and verging on deli
rum.
"Wel1, DOCTOR" he gasped, looking
wildly at the now alarmed student.
''You are saved whispered the
other. ''Dr. Copple's remedy has
already restored SIX dying patients
Here, take these pills ; one every tif
teen minutes; and in an hour you
pains will leave YOU, and before nigh
YOU will be we'll.
The man frightened at once, ant
took four bread pills at intervals 0
ten minutes. In an hour, sure enough
he was better, and before night h
had left his bed, and was pronounced
out of danger. The students had re
turned to town, satisfied with their ex
pertinent, and the next week Basset
was again at the hospital, selling then
more apples. Then they tod him tn
joke; and though inclined to be angr,
at first he finally joined them in
laugh against himself.
SO much for the force Of imagination

At the guardhouaks there Is consider
able fuss made whenever any royalty
passes that way. 1t is the duty, and the
only duty. OF the sentry on guard to keep
his eye open for royalty. When he sees
it-and he seems to have remarkably
long range of vision-he yels at the top
of his by no means musical voice. The
rest Of the guard drop their cards and
pipes, rush precipltately out, fall in, and
present arms with drums beating. This
sort of thing is gone through with every
time any royalty passes. Even the infant
children Of the Crown Prince receive the
same homage. There is something strange
in seeing a lot of grown men present arms
to year old infant. But they do it every
time the nurse of the Crown Princes fam
| lily takes the children out for an airing.
But this ''isn't circumstance, ;" as Chicago
says, to what, according to the story of
one Of the American colony, happened
here once. The nurse had little child Of
| the crown prince out for walk, and hap
| pened to pass one of the guard-houses.
The sentry On duty yelled, the guard
turned out and presented arms. while the
| drums beat. Just as the nurse and Child
got IN front of the line of soldiers, the
child espied heap Of nice, clean sand
suitable for the manufacturing OF mud
pies The instinct Of the child got the
better OF its training; it broke away from
thes nurse and began 10 play in the sand.
The nurse protested entrested, begged
| but il was Of DO use The child was
bound to indulge in a little plebian arnu5e-
ment. 1t had Its own way. and played IN
the sand until it had satisfied its royal
mind, and all this time the guard stood al
q present arms while the drummer
nearly wore his drum head out.
