SHOWERS OF GOLD.

1t is said of an emperor of China
that he was n temperance man. He

ed the Intoxicating bowl. He was

manners, friend of his people. But
he was much distressed at the sight
of restitution and Indebtedness in
CURED by the habit Of drinking. The
horrors Of the liquor shop wore upon
him till he could endure it no longer.
He issued q decree that every saloon
in the empire should he closed. That
was prohibition like q thumdcrbolt.
Bat the most remarkable thing rela-
ted by the story is, that three days
after the prohibition went into effect,
the heav.n MS raincd gold. 1t fell down
like showers Of wheat; the people
gathered it in Great quantities; they
had regained their senses since
drunkenness was stopped, and got
rich. This latter part Of the ancient
story may be metaphorical. Yet it
is Just what we would eXpec to fol-
low thorough prohibition of the

Of wealth would descend upon the
