The Effect of Drinking.

Frequent drinking makes glib
tongue. and matters that might be re-
garded as state secrets outside the pale
of the bar-room are there discussed
with a shocking lack of reserve. The
funny part of it is that the bartender
is taken ser ously into the discussion,
and his opinions are treated as of great
respect AMI authorit, by persons who,
when sober. have no companionship
with the IN xer of drinks. Think Of Il
man taking his business affairs. his
family affairs, his love affairs. to be
submitted to the judgment OF a bar
tender and you will have in mind what
actually happens very, very often.
Place n white-aproned man behind a
whisky bar. and he becomes. in many
instances the leader in thought and
exj ,ssion OF those who exchange
money for drinks over the two feet of
walnut bonrl that separates the M.
And this explains. IN measure, the

A rich old man. who. having made
a fortune in vulgar trade. and who as
he desired to enter society, wanted TO
become accomplished. advertised for a
man 10 read to him. From among the
many applicants a young man was Sc
lected. The old millionaire was pleas
ed with his unassuming manners.
Il want YOU" he said. Read to me,
and if in the future l can aid you. l
will DO So"
The young man read to him. He
read history. biography and books of
travel.
One day The young man said:
Would you not like, for refr esh-
ment to hear a novelp"
Yes. certainly. The cultivated man
must know something of tict on. &c
fetch novel and read it to me-"
The young man brought a DO ok, sat
down and began to read. At first the
old man paid but little attention. but
after awhile he began to lift his hea d
with extreme interest; and finally tears
gushed from his eyes The young man
when he left tho old fellow was filled
with strang happiness. He went To
his room and clasped his hands in &C.
static thankful ness. He had written the
book which had caused the old man to
exhibit such strong emotion. IL had
fallen dead from the press. AT last hi S
hour had come. The millionaire would
bless him. He would say. Select your
publ sher. and he shall bring out your
books. He shall advertise them. and
they shall become great" Would

reader longed for daylight's glittering
prom Sc! AT last" he mused, shall
my sun arise. At last can l turn my
back upon people who have scoifed al
me. and with tender arms embrace the
pure o ed goddess of enduring fame"
The time for the reading came. The
old man sat with his feet on Il cushion.
The young man entered softly.

"you were pleased with the novel ]

A HUMAN HEART.

That Hoped Home After It's Owner
Had Been Killed by Locomotive.
Several politicians in the Stewart building,
says the New York telegram, were. discuss
ing the strange things that have happened
in their lives, when Mr. John p BOYLE gave
curious event that occurred twenty years ago,
before the New York Central railroad began
cunning its cars into the unfinished Grand
Central depot.
''In 1862" Mr. Boyle said 'there was a
sewer being constructed in Eleventh avenue
from Forty seventh TO Fiftieth streets. The
tracks OF the Hud son River railroad ran
through Eleventh avenue, as everyone knows.
In building the sewer 1t became nessary TO
shift the tracks aud the earth taken from the
sewer was piled on either side OF the exca-
walton.
zone day, just after noon, an old man
whose name / have forgotted attempted to
cross the track at Forty-ninth street. The
pile OF dirt prevented his seeing an approach
ing train. He got directly In front OF the
engine and was cut to pieces before he knew
what ait him. We were all stsndinr there
and saw the whole thing. Before we bad
time 10 take two steps We saw something
about the Size OF frog jump over the stones
aud dirt-he ,ps. We FOL owed and saw IL stop
IN the avenue between Ferty seventh and
Forty-eighth streets, before the dead mans
house. On examining this supposed frog we
we're Mortified to see that II was n human
heart-the old mans beart--that had Just
been torn from his mutilated body by the
passing train.
ANY person who worked In Higgins fac.

this remarkable occurrence They all knew
