An Incident from Cough.

A gentleman had got so far into drinking
that he was known to drink a quart Of
brandy day. He was fine bushes:
man, and yet he was running himself in the
estimation of those who knew him well
One day, when in the house, he said
Wife, come and sit on my knee" She
sat there, and then she said, g. II my hus
band didn't drink, would be the hsppies
woman in Canada" "Well, my dear" b,
replied, " l married you to make you happy
and will never drink another drop as long
as live" Now that man cut it off Al
square as a piece of cheese, and kept hi'
word for eight years, without any belief in
Christianity. Walking down the street
with him, little while ago, he said, " d.
you see that redfronted drinking saloon
Well, have been afraid of that for man,
years, and so | used to go down stree
and go around it, but, Mr.. Cough, since

prayer, Lord, keep me for Christ's sake,
and go by it safe"

Practical Prohibition

bright spots of prohibition. Founded un.
der strict temperance principles, 1t has been

Not drop of liquor can be obtained in the
town unless sold by druggist upon ply,

violate the provisions of the clause contained
in his deed, it works a forfeiture of his
ownership. The town has $500 population
no paupers, no city Jail, no police msgis
trate, no poor-house. AS further evidence
they have three newspapers, six churches
and a fine sohoolhouse, which cost over $50,

prohibition, will it not be good example tc

Alcohol on the Senses.

The effect of alcohol Gas well as the other
narcotics) is very apparent on the senses.
Not only the five senses of hearing, seeing,
ETC., are affected injuriously by alcohol, but
the muscular sense as well. This is called
sixth sense. By this sense we judge of
weight and know the condition of the mus
Giles. This sense is deadened by alcohol.
The following is selected from the Union
Signal: "If you shuty eyes and hold up
your hand you know where it is; you can
put the tips of the two forefugers together
when the eyes are shut, and find the way to
your mouth. You tell the difference be-
tween two weights by means of the muscular
sense, even with eyes shut. When man
is drunk his muscular sense is weakened,
he can not guide his muscles properly, uses
too much force or not enough, and so rolls
about. But it is more difficult 10 Judge be-
tween weights which are nearly alike, and
very little alcohol will cause mistakes. Some
gentlemen tried to arrange six bullets, which
were of slightly different weight, in order
of weight when blindfolded. Some drank,
the others did not. They tried many days,
| and had marks according to the degree of
| rightness. After some time the drinkers
| left off beer, and those who had not taken
| it began to do SO. The former drinkers
found they could weigh the bullets better
now, and the latter drinkers found that the
| drink caused them to make more mistakes
and get lower marks. When tired man
takes some alcohol drink he often feels less
weary, and able to work again hence, many
| think the drink makes them stronger. But
the true reason for feeling better is that the
spirit has deadened the feeling, they can not
feel how tired the muscles are when the
deadening effect of the alcohol goes off, they
feel more tired than before. DIR. Parker
made three soldiers march twenty miles a
day for six days, loaded with gun, KNAPP
sack, pouch, etc.; they had the same food
every day, but on two days they drank
brandy and water, on two other days coffee,
and on the two others weak beef tea. All
three found that, though the brandy revived
them for little while, they were more
tired at the end of the journey on those two
days than on any of the other four. Weston
and others who try to walk very long dis.
tsnces, find that they can keep on longer,
and walk further, without alcohol Let this
be fixed in your minds. Alcohol, whether
taken as beer, wine or spirits, can not give
strength"

80 WIND THAT BLOWS OUT OF
THE WEST"

w GHas
O wind that blows out Of the west,
Thou hast swept over mountain and sea.
Dost thou bear on thy swift, glad wings
The breath OF my love TO me9
Hast thou kissed her warm, sweet lips2
Or tangled her soft, brown hairy
Or fu,tered the fragrant heart
OF the rose abe loves to wear9
o sun that goes down in the west
Hast thou seen my love to-day
Az she sits in her beautiful prime
Under skies 20 far awayY
Hast thou gllded path for her feet
Or deepened the glow on her cheeks
Or bent from the skies to hear
The low, sweet words ahe speaks7
stars that are bright in the west
when the hush OF the night is deep,
DO ye see my love as she lies
Like a chaste white flower asleep?
Does she smile as she walks with me
In the light Of happy dream,
While the night winds rustic the leaves,
And the light waves ripple and gleamP
o birds that fly out of the west,
Do ye bring me message from her.
As sweet as your love-noes are,
when the warm spring breezes stirP
Did she whisper a word OF me
A. your tremulous wings swept by,
Or utter my name, mayhap,
In single passionate cry7
voices out Of the west
We are silent every one,
And never an answer comes
