Erect a Home Bar.

A Western journal has the following
very practical remarks for those who
cannot get along without frequent whis-
kies:
Liquor dealers pay on an average So per
gallon Tor whisky. One gallon contains
an average of sixty-fYe drinks, and at ten
cents drink, the poor man pays $3.50 per
gallon for his whisky. In other words, he
pays $500 for the whisky and $3.50 to the
man for handling it over the bar. Make
your wife your barkeeper. Lend her $500
10 buy gallon of whisky for beginning,
and every time you want drink, go TO
her and pay ten cents for it. By the time
you have drank gallon she will have
$3.50, or enOH money to refund the $500
borrowed from you, to pay for another gal
Ion OF whisky aud balance of $3.50. She
will be able to conduct future operations
On her own capital, and when you become
IN inpbriate, unable to support yourself
stunned aud despised By all respectable
persons, yonr wife will have enough money
TO keep you until you get ready to ill .
drunkard's grave.
This is not reprinted as news itsm, but
because Il Ii one Of the very best temper
ance sermons we ever Observation-Disclosures
TO carry more weight than = dozen long
winded ones put on the '.high moral plane. :
This is practical and will carry conviction
to the mind and heart of many man who
would not listen to an ordinary sermon,
That Is the mission on which We send it
now, and earnestly hope il may have the
result desired.
AJackson estimate would be: Whisky
per gallon, $500. At is cents a drinl
and two for quarter" $500. Profit
on each gallon, $500.
