TALKING AGAINST POKER.
Some Reasons Why the Fascinating
Game il Bad.

Poker playing and poker clubs, whether
clubs in fact or only socalled, says writer
in the Brooklyn Eagle should be discoun-
tenanced, because of their demoralizing
effectupon persons addicted to the game
II dulls the feelings of generosity; it makes
men selfish. harsh and deceitful; it causes
them to lie, TO be profane and often TO
cheat, while it leads to evil associations
generally. Men will sit down to play
poker with persons whom they would not
ike to introduce into their families and
some with whom they would hate to he
seen in public. 1t has tendency tomake
men neglectful of their legitimate calling
and their families, and the money lost in
the game would greatly enhance domestic
comfort and happiness If employed in
that way or saved for future use Wheth
er merchant, physician, lawyer, mechanic.
principal or clerk, when infatuated by this
game, ami when spending nights at the
gaming table, instead of resting in bed,
they are surely liable to neglect business,
unfit themselves for duty by their nightly
orgies, while they depreciate the value of
their services to clients or employers. 1t
impoverishes the mind,as well as the purse
and it destroys amiability and establishes
fretfulness and i'll humor.
The game is usually begun as a means
of amusement, with very small stakes; lut
being enticing and infatuating, it soon
becomes daily habit, and a cancer slowly
eating its way into the vitality of the
victim, Most players ale bound to lose,
as the chances are by no means as equal
as people may think they are As the
losses increase in amount and frequency,
the minds of the players become worried
and troubled, and the continuous attempts
to win back lost money tends. in most
cases, to renewed ventures. Then comes
more worry and gloominess and trouble
Invariably the efforts to regain only result
in new and heavier losses
1t is positive fact, and can be proved
in almost every instance Cat least could
prove it as far as my own experience
reaches), that in every club there creeps
in i'll the course of time few persons who
are possessed of great patience and o
peuchant for trickery, who, under the
guise of gentlemen, simply come to play
to pass away their spare time, and they
seem to have Il great deal of time to spare
for this purpose. 1t is not wonderful,
under these circumstances. that many
persons retire from the club room with
not only empty purses, but with exhausted
credit, and go home to punish their limo
cent families by their unaccountabe
chagrin an nervousness. Men who but a
short time since deemed no purchase
burdcnsome, but now find that the order
ing of an overcoat is a severe test of their
financial capacity. Poker is very amusing
and very engaging, but men are not con
tent with mere amusement, and do not
seem to care for stopping anywhere short
of embarrassment or ruin 1t is horrible
to carry about with one the humiliating
consciousness of being an unsuccessful
gambler

Forecast of the Year.

Representations for the coming year
have chance of being read providing
they are not representation about the
weather There is an old prophesy, first
published about three hundred years ago
fer the year 1542, which we have good
reason to believe will apply to 1884. 1t
is this In the coming year blind people
will not see very WELL deaf people will
hear but little aud tue lame viii have a
difficulty in getting about the streets.
There will be this year heavy mortality
among sheep, oxen aud domestic fowl, but
camels and dromedaries will live out The
natural term of existence through the
length and breadth of the land will pre-
vail great epidemic, whose causes aud
results are alike disastrous to The human
race-it is the lack of money. The spirit
of man is exhorted to courage. neverthe-
less, as. whether he live to see it or not,
the Year will come to IN end in three
