The Fool and His Money.

lrIOiu WOTh dHu WdStS.I
 The workingmau who puts his money into the saloon keepers till is a fool. He mort gages his property and the we'll being of him self and family beyond redemption. He puts himself under power that uses him to step upon; to grow fat upon by devouring him; and that takes the manhood out of him.
 We need say nothing about the saloon keeper; we need to indulge in no tirade against rum; not to preach against the drink ing of intoxicating liquors on moral grounds; nor to say word about prohibition or li- cense; it is enough to point to the spectacle of the workingman's delivering himself over to degrading life, where the brute is de- veloped in him and his ennobling qualities are suppressed It is the degradation of the man that is SD conspicuous; he throws him. self away and for nothing. After his hard days labor he goes to the saloon and in an hour he has nothing to show for that labor nothing but stupidity or drunken fight, ol 8 crime committed.
 The workingman who can make no better showing than this for the expenditure of his days wages is fool-yes, worse than fool for the workingman has responsibilities for his conduct that the fool has not.
 The workingman may as well say to his fellows: "Let's work hard every day for ten years and see how rich we can make the saloonkeeper on the corner; we will then make him poodle alderman, so that he may become richer" Yet this is what is done in many cities in this country, though the workingmen may not plan it beforehand.
 What worse could workingman do with his earnings than to spend them for drink? He might better throw them into the river or bury them in the ground, for then there would be no tyrant ruling over him.
 Wages we'll cared for will return a vast amount of happiness to the workingman. Is it better to own a home or to be in the clutches of the saloonkeeper? Is it better to have money laid by for rainy day or to be sunk in wretchedness and poverty?
 The saloon receives you in welcome when you have money and kicks you out when it is gone. It takes you man and makes you a beast. It consumes your energies and thrives while you depart beggar.
 It is useless to quote the figures of the na- tion's annual liquor bill; to this workmen contribute millions that they may deprive themselves of comforts and never get near enough to a luxury to know what it is like. They part with millions that might be invest ed in homes, in the education of children and in securities
 What many a workman suffers from to- day is a want of savings. By these he might elevate himself; he might be lender instead of a borrower; he might become an employer as we'll as employed; he would buy cheaper for cash than he does now for credit; he would be happy in temperance, in good home, in having promising children, in the the confidence that he would have in his manhood. Above all he would not be mak- ing fool of himself by dumping his wages into saloon.

while aiming at his adversaries, the other was that those who knew him had such con- fidenee in his ability that they did not like to rob him of his game, never thinking for moment that the affair would terminate as it did.
 Meanwhile the battle ragged, the enemy came on like the waves, not to be driven back, but to be beaten to the earth. Horses and men, they were piled in mounds; in fact, the great number of their dead and wounded interfered with their movements, while the slightest delay on their part insured certain death, and it was now noticed from their hesitation that they had lost heart. As they came on for the last time, the front of their advance consisting entirely of white-robed emirs and sheikhs, shouting, waving their banners aud pointing at us, all our machine guns opened a searching fire. supplemented by hand clap volleys from the Martini-Heu- rvs, and when the smoke lifted not a live Arab was to be seen within 5, 1000 yards-they were all stretched.
 fear no contradiction when venture to say that never since Agincourt, not even at Inkermann (the soldiers battle), has Brit ish force fought so terrible a hand to hand fight.
