A GOOD man stopped at a cottage
and asked for dinner. The.. woman Of
tue house set before simple repast on
which he asked the Divine blessing
before eating. She asked him if he
was minister. He said he was, and
of the Methodist order. She called
his attention after dinner to the perish
ing condition Of her garden, parched
with drouth, almost beyond hope Of
recovery, and she begged that he, be-
ing a minister, would pray for rain.
He complied with her request and
went his way. Scarcely had no got
ovt Of sight before a cloud gathered,
an awful dowdpour of rain followed,
washing away the very sell Of her
garden, and leaving her worse off than
before. "There" she exclaimed, "that
is just like the Methodists; they never
do anything in moderation"

PLENTY OF WHISKEY AND TO.
RhCCO.

The Washington correspondent of
the Cincinnati Times Star has exam
ined the annual report of the Commits
sioner of Internal Revenue for 1882.
From his lengthy article we make the
following article:
The total number of cigars consum-
ed in this country during the year was
about 3, $780, 100000, Or an average Of
90 apiece for every man, woman and
child in this country, and nearly $50
apiece for every male Of 81 years Or
over. There were made by the facto
ries a little over 100000 pounds of
chewing tobacco during the year. New
Jersey leads in the manufacture of
snuff, making nearly 100000 pounds
annually, out of 100000 pounds man.
ufactured. 1t thus appears that the
tobacco factories and importers supply
for every male person in this country
ten pounds Of chewing tobacco, 81
pounds of smoking tobacco, $50 cigars
and half pcund of snuff per annum.
For the 100000 youths between the
ages of ten and 81 there were manu-
featured 6oo,ooo,ooo cigarettes, or 100
apiece. The amount of whiskey with
drawn from the bonded warehouses
during the year is reported at 75,00O,-
600 gallons-six gallons apiece for ev-
cry man above the voting age. The
brewers also modestly came forward
with about 5o0,o0o,00o gallons fmalt
liquors, an average Of ten gallons 70,
every man, woman and child in this
country for the year. Thus by very
moderate estimate it appears that eve.
Try voter Of this great country is sup
piled ION an average) with 81 pounds
Of smoking tobacco, ten pounds Of
chewing tobacco, $50 cigars, six gal
Ions Of whiskey and SO gallons of beer
Lest somebody should be alarmed a
|thc large quantity Of spirits exported
and absorbed during the past year it il
proper to add that there is now as mucl
in warehouse as was gotten rid of il
the entire year by all processes, ant
the manufacture is going on at the rat'
Of $50 gallonf a minute, day ant
night, Or 100000 gallons in every q
hours. The internal revenue collected
upon this whiskey, beer and Tobacco,
during the past fiscal year was s14o,
100000, and the internal revenue sys
tenn since its inception, in 1868, ha
brought into the Treasury the sum 0

And will bless your memory
For all the good you've been to mo.

Whatever may become of you,
Accept, dear. easiest, best of shoes,
