An habitual drunkard in Sweden
and Norway is treated as a criminal
in this sense, that his inordinate
love Of strong drink renders him IL
able to imprisonment, and while in
confinement it appears he is cured
of his bad propensities, on a plan
which though simple enough it is
said to produce marvellous effects.
From the day the confirmed drunk
ard is incarcerated no nourishment
is served to him or her but bread
and wine. The bread, however, it
should be said, cannot be eaten
apart from the wine, but is STEPPED
in bowl of it and left thus to soak
an hour or more before the meal is
served to the delinquent The first
day the habitual topper takes his
food in this shape without the slight
est repugnance the second day he
finds it less agreeable in his palate
and very quickly be evinces a posi-
tive aversion to it. Generally, the
doctor states, eight or ten days of
this regimen is more than sufficient
to make a man loathe tie very
sight of wine.

MERCENARY MARRIAGES.
Maude Rowe DiscOurseS on Their Folly
and Misery.

To marry for money is one of the
most objectionable of all blunderS.
The search for truth and the pursuit
of happiness are in the judgment Of
most wise men, from Moses to So
crates, from Lord Bacon to Emer-
son, the two most intelligent aims
in lite. TO seek for truth in dssmar-
1iage which in itself mockery and
a lie is evidently useful; to pursue
happiness in a home which one has
sold ones freedom to obtain is quite
as fruitless a task. 1t is stupid, lit IS
ignoront, it is wicked to marry for
money.
1t is stupid from so many points
of view it is stalking the permanent
against the evanescent. Money is
an uncertain commodity, a fuctuat-
ing value, and a man or woman who
exchanges his or her best chances of
happiness for that flimsy, slippery
coin is exchanging the true for the
false, the real for the counterfeit.
This is always presupposing that a
happy marriage is the highest prize
which the life lottery contains. If
there be any cynic who doubts this
why, this argument is not for
him.
The mistake with US is the great
importance which is attached by all
classes in this country to the money
question. 1t is very unpleasant
thing to be hungry but it is also
uncomfortable to be gorged and ov-
er-fed. Under-nourishment is bad,
but apoplexy and govt ale perhaps
worse.
To preach the doctrine ot plain
living and high thinking is at this
date thankless task--it probably
has always been. 1t is not a very
dreadful thing to be poor. Want
is grim, but it is not the ugliest
think know in this world. When
| shall speak of the poor in this
short sermon | must be understood
not to speak of the poverty stricken
men and women of our great cities,
whose misery is our shame, but of
the men and women who lack the
Injuries of life. and must suffice
themselves with its necessities.
To go back little The cause OF
mercenary marriages is nearly al
ways ignorance, false standard of
the values OF lite. In order that we
should guard our children from this
saddest of mistakes, we must beware
what false doctrines they listen to
in their nurseries and at our
tables. The false standards Of life
are, alas too often acquired by our

THREE DESPOTISMS IN ONE.

Our government to-day, says the
New York Herald, is a triple despo-
tism.
The three despotisms bound up in
the federal machine are the Presi-
dent, the Senate and the Speaker.
AS the Herald puts it, the Presi-
dert exercises irresponsible power.
The Senate, in secret session, is an
oath. bound council, with power to
control patronage, make and I'M
make treaties, and determine peace
or war. The Speaker is master of
all he surveys. He controls legisla-
ton; he can freeze eloquence and
wisdom into silence. No man in
the house can do anything without
his favor.
To this unhappy condition our
government has come by slow de-
grees, until it is now An extreme
example Of centralized power.
1t is plain that while we are gov
erned in this manner we can expect
nothing but partisan legislation.
There are no Websters, Clays or Cal
houEs in sight, and if they should
come to the front they would be
bulldozed in the house or gagged in
the senate. Our ruling bosses do
not want statesmen for the work in
hand. They are on the lookout for
boodlers and bulldozers-men who
will ride rough Shod over the con-
stitutional rights of the people and
their representatives.
We do not need monarch and a
standing army to constitute . des-
potism.

THURSDAY MORNING July "a. 1880.
YOUNG MEN TO THE FRONT.

There is nothing more pleasing
than to see the young men of any
community going ahead, not waiting
for gray hairs to come upon them
before striving to do something in
the world, but with force and ener-
gy making efforts to better their con-
dition and that of those around them.
Beginning early in life to feel the re-
sponsibilities of citizens, and trying
to be more than living beings with
out force or power, but rather to
exert an influence, and that for
good.
The vigor Of youth, the bright
dreams OF maturing manhood give a
sprightliness and zest to an under
taking that is inspiring to others.
1t is well for young men to rush to
the front, with care showing the
tempering influence of reason.
1t is we'll for young men to move,
but in their movement to carry
along with them some Of the older
heads. Let their movement be such
that others OF more experience in the
worlds affairs can see goodin it. A
community is dead indeed where the
young men have no life or spirit,
and the prosperity of the city can
be measured by the enterprise of its
young men. So it is healthy Sign
to see young men taking an active
part in public affairs.
Much is heard nowadays of young
mems movements" and the upbuild-
ing of city by it's young men.
This is all well enough, and it is
doubtless true that in the most thirty.
ing cities the young men do take a
prominent stand, but it is equally
true that where young men have
builded up, they have beeen guided
by wisdom, either OF their own, or
their elders. Simply because they
are young men did not bring them
success, but their energy, coupled
with wisdom, made them to ad-
vance.
So it is in every instance, and no
set of young men can 60 bullying
ahead without choosing reason as
their guide. Let them realize this
and be sure that their course is we'll
directed, and will be we'll.

EpLCATE THE GIRLS.

Mothers and fathers educate your
girls as you do your boys. Give
them the same advantages in rudi-
mentary education. Watch them !;
learn their inclinations as you do
your boys. Measure their intellecss,
study their dispositions and teach
them, though it is a beautiful thing
tor woman to be womanly, it is not
beautiful thing for them to be
dritted into the world helpless be-
ings, to be tossed and driven with
the winds and waves Of circumstan-
ces, unprepared to 1old their own
against such odds. Teach them
that the more the mind acquires in
one direction, the easier it will see
its way in another. The making of
lie, the sweeping of a chamber,
the fashioning Of a garment, the
giving OF party, the papering of a
room, the whole economies in fact
Of life, are better performed by a
well than an i'll balanced mind.
Send the girls 10 good seminaries if
you can afford it, and you are sure
they will make the right use OF their
time. Add profession or a trade
that, just as her choice and talent
dictate. ana you have done more for
her possible future than if you had
endowed her With a fortune. The
latter is often lost, the former stays
with her.
Think of the advantages the edu-
Gated woman enjoy. Let her 60
thro' life as placid as may be, she
has fund of enjoyment at her com
mand unknown to the less enlight-
ened; and if Universities or loss Of
natural protector comes to her, see
how quickly she stands erect and
takes the helm how she covers the
loss and lessons the sufferings to
others, as we'll as herself; in word
how independent you have made
her. Just why it is that there is sc
much more expected of woman Of
genius than OF man, cannot be
said, BUTT is an accepted fact. One
hundred years ago there were few
advantages open to women for self
courage or high education, and ne
opportunities for preparation for the
professions, arts or sciences. Now
with the call for the supply, means
have gradually come to hand. The
colleges and every other means FOL
help are open to woman. She Car
command as good an education as {
man can.
