One day several acquaintances, on
asking him to drink, were surprised TO
hear him say, "You must excuse me,
gentlemen. for can't drink any thing"
To their question. What is the matter
with your he sad:
"Iil tell you. ,,be other day met a
party of friends. When | left them /
was about half-drunk. | would not
not have stopped at this, but my friends
had to hurry away to catch train.
To man of my temperment,to be half
drunk is a miserable condition, for the
desire for more is so strong that he
forgets his seIf-respect in his efforts to
get more to drink.
Failing at the saloons, remembered
that there was half-pint of whisky at
holne that had been purchased for med
ical purposes.
Gus. before reaching the gate l heard
voices in the garden, and, looking over
the fence, | saw my little son and
daughter playing. Now you be ma,
said the boy, 'and I'll be pa. Now, you
sit here, and Tll come home drunk.
Wait, now, till find my bottle.
s'He took bottle, ran away and filled
it with water. Pretty soon he returned,
and, entering the playhouse nodded
idiotically at the little girl, and sat
down without saying anything. Then
the girl looked up from her work aud
said:

"'Whizzer way? he replied.

the baby died you wouldn't drink any

and we haven't anything to eat hardly

He eometh not, / have watched the moon
Sink slowly in the dasky west,
And, like the fading of her light.
Hath hope died out in my sad breast
lis midnight, bat be comes not yet
All vainly still / watch and weep
How long, o Father, o how long
Must these lonely yigils keep
o for one hour Of happiness,
such as j ieit when loves sweet spell
Was woven first around my heart,
Ere from its shrine my idol fell
But now alas, a fearful doom
OF wretchedness, and woe, and fear,
Is mine-the fate to watch and pray,
With aching heart and bitter tear
l listen to the eeaseless stroke
Which marks the weary hours go by,
And start and treIsble At the sound
OF cen the night winds gentle sigh.
/ gaze upon my children lair.
And listen to their low, soft breath,
TIL, in my broken hearts despair,
I almost wish their sleep were death.
A blight upon the drunkard's child
Rests ever, from lfes opening morn;
o must my loved ones feel thar sting
OF the worlds cold unieeiing scorn?
Dear Saviour, thou whose soul hath felt
Deep sorrow's fearful agony,
o fill my weary, fainting heart
With strength that only comes from thee
