temperance.
Touch Not.

The habit of tipping with alcoholic
liquors is in many respects more dan
gerous to the constitution than occa-
sional sprees. Both are bad enough and
no young man is safe who is addicted
to either. But the lucid intervals give
the spreeing individual chance to re-
cover his bodily tone, whilst the daily
use of strong drinks surely undermines
every organ and threatens to make the
person so indulging confirmed drunk
ard or an imbecie. A young man
fances he can drink in this way because
at twenty-five he makes no unseemly ex-
hibition of himself, but if glass could
be held before him and he could see
himself at forty-five he would be i'm
measurably shocked. Persons wonder
why men of vigorous bodies and strong
minds can ever become pitiably help
less by the time they reach fifty. These
men had their livers, their nervous sys-
tenn, their brain tissues all hopelessly
enfeebled by constant rotations, and
they never recuperate. The man who
must have his daily drains may not
come before a court for disordery con-
duct, but in time he will likely be
powerless for any exertion, physical
or mental-a wreck of his former
self, and creature for the COM
passion of those about him. The spree
makes itself Extensively felt, and the
remorse attending it often gives a
long interval of sobriety. The constant
tipping leads to idiocy of various de-
grees. Don't tamper with liquors that
have more than seven per cent of alco-
hol in them, and, better still, avoid them
altogether. - Putsbmg Chronicle Tele-
