The effect Of honey on the human
system was thus stated by Prof Frank
r. Cheshire, f. R. NJ. S., in lecture
before the Institute of Agriculture at
South Kensington, London, England:
All foods, if not alredy soluble (melt-
able) in water, such as bread, etc., have
to be so altered within us that they
become dissolved, and we call this
solution digestion. Honey, on the
contrary, or the sugar that we find in
grapes, is already in the condition for
absorption or assimilation, and really no
kind of work has to be performed upon
it before it is actually rendering US
service as force or heat producer. If
honey, then, as a food be a giver of
warmth to the system, a quickener of
nervous and muscular energy, and a
supporter Of all vital functions, how
important it is that it should be obtained
in pure condition.
Honey contains sugar in the form
most suitable to assimilation. On this
account it is desirable to take it in com
bination with some less readily absorbed
material. Bread and honey has time.
honored memory, and is combination
as agreeable to sound physiology. as it
is to the sense Of taste. Children with
rapidly developing frames and irrep-
ressible activity, instinctively feel the
value OF sugars, and amongst these,
honey takes a place second to none so
far as the needs of the frame are con-
,erned, whilst its aroma gives it first
place on the list. The presence of a
minute quantity of an animal acid,
lend in addition a medicinal value,
which IN cases OF sore throat and some
other ailments is we'll nigh universally
recognized, while the Medical Council
of Great Britain recommend the use Of
honey in no less than seven distinct
pharma ceutcal preparations.

During the months Of February and
March 435 alliances. aubordidate to the
Nebraska State Farmers Alliance, were
organized,
The convention of the Ohio Farmers
Alliance passed temperance resolutions
to the effect that 'the saloon is place
that every decent citizen is ashamed to
Defend" but did not actually declare
for prohibition.
The Nebraska Alliance men petition
congress against the Window bill and
refunding of bonds, and for free coinage
Of silver and currency up to $50 per
capita.
Within recent week the sheriff Of
Atlantic county, N. j., has sold 200
farms to foreclose mortgages. and over
forty families have been evicted
A correspondent of the Indiana
Farmer, after describing how the gov
ernmens loans money to banks at per
cent, says: "Again, the government
builds warehouses and gives warehouse
receipts for the distillers' spirits,
which command almost their face value
in currency. Now, why can't the gov.
eminent be as good to the hard handed
farmer as to the soft handed banker
and distiller?'

WHAT is A DRUNKARD?
How Is He Produced and Who Is Respon
sibie for Him.

How Is He Produced and who Is Respon.
sible for Him.
What is a drunkard? I have gone
through the whole creation that lives,
and find nothing in it like the drunk
ard. The drunkard is nothing but a
drunkard. There is no other thing in
nature to which he can be likened. The
drunkard is self made wretch, who has
depraved and has gratified the depraved
cravings of the throat and body, until he
has sunk his soul SO far that it is lost in
his flesh, and sunk his very flesh lower
down beyond comparison than that of
the animals which serve him.
He is self degraded creature, whose
degradation is made manifest to every
one but himself; a self made miserable
being, who, while he is insensble to his
own misery, affiicts every one around
him or belonging to him with misery.
The drunkard is let loose upon mankind
like some foul, ill boding and noxious
animal, to poster, torment and disgust
everything that reasons or feels, while
the curse of God hangs over his place and
the gates of heaven are closed against
him. Drunkenness is never to be found
alone, never unaccompanied by some
horrid crime, if not by a wicked crowd
of them.
Go to the house of drunkard, con-
slider his family. look on his affairs.
listen to the sounds that proceed from
the house of drunkenness and the house
of infamy as you pass. Survey the inse-
curity of the public ways and of the
night streets. Go to the hospital, to the
house of charity and the bed of wretch
edncss. Enter the courts OF justice, the
prison and the condemned cell. Look at
the haggard features of the ironed Grim
inal. Ask all these why they exist to
distress you, and you will everywhere
be answered by tales and recitals of
drunkenness. And the miseries and the
vices and the sorrow and the scenes of
suffering that have narrowed up your
soul, were almost without exception
either prepared by drinking, or were un.
dergone for procuring the means of salts
flying this vice and the vices which sprung
from it.-Archbishop Ullathorne.

Honey for Dyspeptics.

The New York Tribune on May 7,
has the following item under its agri-
cultural heading:
A correspondent of Gleanings an
Bee Culture queries as to whether dys.
peptics, or those with whom "houey
doesn't agree" ever tried heating ex
tracted honey to the boiling point before
eating. He (weak Of digestion) found
he could use it In this way with less
unpleasant after effect. However,
certrin persons cannot seem to indulge
IN this luxury without annoying result,
though they might, perhaps, by slow
result, school the stomach to accept of
it, and in some cases it is probably the
swallowed coMb that makes the trouble.
We should advise the use of milk,
when the hcneJ disagrees with weak
stomach. Milk assists digestion, and
drinking either sour milk (clabber) or
butter-nilk, is very beneficial in cases
of Indigestion, 1t simply tones up the
stomach, while the use of honey will
give warmth to the system, arouse ner
vous energy, and give vigor to all the
vital functions. Mix and honey are
grand things for poor humanity.

Political Lessons From the Farm.

Farmers may wisely and profitably
take some lessons from their own bust
ness in dealing with the political ques-
tions that are now confronting them.
In securing successful crop, prompti
tude is very essential The ground
must be prepared in season, the seed be
planted at the proper time, and above
all the work of cultivation must be
done at the earliest practicable date.
If few days are allowed to go by, after
the hot weather in June has come, with
the cultivation lying idle, the weeds
and grass will get such start in
the corn that much extra work must be
done to clean the ground, and even then
the crop is cut short by many bushels
in the acre.
So in this work of cleaning out the
political field prompt action is alb
solutely necessary to successful results.
Again, when the farmer has a valuable
colt, calf or other stock he pays it
special attention. On leaving home, if
but for day, he charges the boys, not
the hired man, to look after that colt or
heifer and see that it has all that
is necessary for health and comfort.
In attention, carelessness in hand
ling and feeding may cause much
loss and damage. 1t is so in the i'm
portant legislative measures that the
farmer has resolved to secure. They
must be looked after often and care
fully. 1t is not safe to commit them to
the care of those less interested than
himself If this must be done, how
ever as is to be likely to be the case.
let him spare no pains in seeing that
his measures are not forgotten or set
aside for others that are advocated by
those who may be plotting against him
Select your kind of men to mako the
laws you want and make sure they dc
not forget you.-lndiana Farmer.

fHE FARMERS LEAGUE
An Organization in Harmony WITH th
Alliance and Kindred Societies.

An Organization in Harmony with the
Alliance and Kindred Societies.
The purposes and objects of this or
6at1ization have been asked for by sew
efa1 Of 6ur readers. In their queries
reference was had to the combination of
farmers organizations, to be formed at
the meeting in this city on the 18th.
When a Farmers League was first
talked of in this paper, it was not known
that farmers organization with that
name already existed. Since that time
we have learned of such an order ex-
tending over the Eastern States and
have published object and purposes as
foliowsi
1.-THE Farmers League is a nom
secret, independent and non-partisan
organization, in harmony with the AL
lance, Wheel, Farmers Union, Grange
and kindred associations, agricultural
societies, farmers clubs and similar
organizations. But the League goes
step further. Its object is the farmers
political welfare. The work of the
League Is directed toward securing a
Just representa- ton and treatment of
the agricultural interests in Congress
and in the Legislatur and due recog-
milton of farmers in all public affairs,
without conflicting with the best in
terests of the entire people"
Being thus forestated in the use of
this name some other will probably be
adopted for the proposed combination of
organizations.
The purpose of that meeting, as al
ready several times stated. is to effect
union of the various farmers organiza-
tions, having membership in the State,
for securing such legislation as farmers
can all agree in demanding. The first
thing to be done at the convention,
when organized, will be to agree upon
the legislation to be demanded, and
next to adopt plan for securing the
support of all the sub-Alliances,
Oranges and T. NJ. B. A. and Patrons of
Industry lodges in enforcing the de-
mands of their several localities. The
proceedings of the convention will be
given in full in our next number. If
we are not mistaken the results of the
meeting will be more important to the
farmers of Indiana, than those of any
convention ever yet held in their inter
est-Indiana Farmer.

FORCE THE ISSUE.
If Existing Parties Will Not Help the

If Existing Parties Will Not Help the
Farmers the Farmers Must Help Them
selves.
Several months ago this paper sub
mitted to its contemporaries of the
partvpress few fundamental PROPOSE
lions upon which the Farmers Alliance
and Industrial Union had agreed-prcp-
ositions concerning finance, transpor-
tation and land-and our brethren were
asked: "What have the part!es.to say to
this?'' No response has come from any
quarter which savors of authority. No
representative body of partisans has
thus far touched the particular phase
of the financial question which is pre-
sented in the first demand set forth by
the Alliance people at ST. Louis last
December-the abolition of National
banks and the substitution OF treasury
notes in place of bank notes. 1t is I'M
derstood, of course, that farmers DO not
desire to do away with banking, for
thew often need the use OF banking
facilities as much as other classes of
citizens do. 1t is the issuing function
that is objected to. This puts 1t into
the power of banks to exercise large
measure of control over the money and
the business of the people to the extent
of affecting the prices OF their COM
modities by affecting the prices OF
money through interest rates and other
wise. The thing aimed at in this de-
mand is the peoples control OF
their finances through public agents
All the money of the country
now is subjected to the super
intendence of the few men who deal In
money as a commodity-lending it to
other persons and charging them in
terest for it There would be nothing
wrong or unreasonable about this prac-
tice if it were subject to uniform rule
by which people could obtain the use OF
money when they need it on terms just
and alike: to all, 4the terms being the
same as are applied to service In trans
portation-just what it is worth and no
more. Bat that is not the rule. Ever
since governments began TO make money
for the common use of the people In
their business affairs, smart men have
been permitted to obtain control OF
enough of it to dictate financial legisla-
ton. and now every nation on earth is
under the controlling influence OF the
Money Power to such an extent that the
people are almost hOpelessly in debt
