THE MARKS OF THE DEMON

The Moderate DrnI1er Carries with Him
the Evidences of His Debasement-A
New Argument.
Zone argument have never heard
made against moderate drinking, "
said disciple of teetotalism, ais that
the practice induces mental laxity
which is manifested, according to my
observation, in a very peculiar way.
Why is it that those who are known to
be moderate drinkers, though COM
posed of fairly prosperous class, are
never well dressed? Not because thew
can't afford it, not because they are
Indifferent to the value of appearing to
advantage, but simply because the al
cohol habit induces state of mind
which tends to make one forget or
ignore the duty that is due society of
always appearing neatly clad.
but can you point to any great
number of moderate drinkers and say,
as class, they are well-dressed men?
Every fold in their garments proclaims
them drinkers. There are the shiny
spots and patches about the elbows of
the coat caused by your topper resting
his elbows on the beer-stained counter;
then there are the dark stains along his
vest, his shoes are seldom well black
ened, and there is a rusty air about his
hat. There are infinite gradations in
all these aspects. But no sooner can
any one of them be detected than the
victim of the habit is discerned to af-
ford physical signs showing the effect
of the liquor on his system. Should
he be OF one temperament his blood
will become affected first, and you be-
hold his nose decorated with grog-
blossoms. The brain soon loses its
elastic texture and becomes unusually
hard or of a morbid softness. Apo
plexy, mental debasement and the
gradual extinction of all intellectual
powers follow. But set ont contend
ing that moderate indulgence in
spirituous liquors led to slovenliness
in the appearance of the victim of the
habit That is but one effect of a
mental change which takes place.
The other results are known only to
the expert, but they are none the less
terrible for all that, and no less sure of
being felt sooner or later. ~ hicaqo

Pitiful Victims of Rum.

was brought to the notice of the HUI

AIS South Desplaines street, and found
Mrs. Catherine Haight lying on an old
lounge in a drunken stupor. and her
eight little children were huddled to-

had not had any thing to eat since
noon the day before, and the youngest
a babe of seven months, was almost
starved. Five of the little ones were
crying, and the oldest, little girl of
eleven years, was trying to comfort
them. When the officer found
them the children and drunken
mother were taken to the station, and
when the woman sobered up she was
brought before Justice Russell. Officer

COSTLY WOODS.
Fine Specimens of French Walnut Which
Sold at Two Cents a Pound.

Fine Specimens of French Walnut Which
Sold at Two Cents Pound.
''The finest and costliest wood i'm
ported to this country is French wal
nut" said Brooklyn lumber dealer
to reporter. 1.-THE demand for fine
woods is increasing yearly. Walnut,
which is supposed to be imported from
France, in reality comes from the Orien-
tai countries. 1t is very expensive and
will bear no wasting. Of course many
limitations of the wood are in the mar
ket. but they can quickly be detected
by the expert. Expensive and fine
woods come to this country in logs.
The logs are first placed in cellars
where they are subjected to the action
of steam until they become quite soft.
They are then placed under the sharp
est kind of knife and shaved off into
thick or thin slices, which ever may be
desired. For veneers the sheets thus
shaved are 1-175 of an inch in width.
1t is only when the wood is soft and
pliabe that the shaving process can be
carried out. If the wood was cold
and hard it would be impossible to
shave it into the thin pieces desired.
The extremely thin sheets are used for
picture frames"
"What is the value of French wal
nut?"
Fine specimens of the wood have
come as high as two dollars pound.
Ebony is, perhaps, nearly as costly as
French walnut. 1t often brings as
much as three hundred dollars a ton,
that is. of course, providing the wood
is of the finest quality. Five dollars a
pound is often asked and received for
exceptionally fine pieces Rosewood
and mahogany are popular woods and
are always in demand. The best ma
hogany comes from San Domingo.
Rosewood is worth from three to six
cents pound. For choice cabinet
work imported woods are the best, but
many pieces of furniture are made from
native woods such as ash, maple and
black walnut. In many houses of the
wealthy. fine imported woods are used
for flooring. ExpensiveP Well, yes,
but men don't figure the cost when the
things they pay for beautify their
homes. Many Brooklynites whom ]
might name have whole floors covered
with parqut work or wood flooring.
This kind of flooring is well enough in
summer, but in winter it is very cold,
Such kind of flooring makes halls and
vestibules very attractive. "-Brooktyn

The offer Of the Helwig chair-factory pro.
prietor to increase wages 10 per cent. on every
5 per cent. advance on product, touches on one
of the causes Of low prices for labor The
buyer Of the product of labor is intent on get
ting it cheap1y as possible; the cry is for
bargains, and the quest is for the dealer who
will cut prices. This crowds the dealer back
upon the manufacturer, who, to accommo-
date his customer and to save himself, must
sell at lower than saving rate. He in turn
must ask reduction in the cost Of manufact-
ure, so that in the end, the man hurt by the
bargain hunter Is the laborer. This is the
rule in every case. If the chair-maker wishes
to put his hand on the man to please whom
his wages are kept at the lowest notch, he
must search for him who wants the finished
chair at little lower figure than fair profit.
The man or woman who will not pay fair
price for manufactured articles is the enemy
of labor. The professional bargain-hunter is
one of tho meanest Of mankind. AS Mr..
Helwig claims, the difference of ten cents on
chair at its retail price means difference, it
may be, of a half dollar day in the wages of
the man who makes chairs
