The National Assembly Of the League

Jersey was represented by DR.. Benedict,
OF this city, G. g. Brown and G. Pennell.
The secretary reported that the league
has a membership of 1880 ands1TI ladies
are on the list. President Lusconb was
sat on. His report was rejected, as in 1t
he implied that the delegates from
Massachusetts and Ohio had not
properly performed their duties, and the
report Of the Rights and Privileges Com
mittee was received, although il had been
signed by j. b. Porter, who was sum
marily dismissed by the president, and
thus by inference declared that the presi-
dent had exceeded his powers.
The president declined t o again be a
candidate, and James X. Dunn, OF
Ohio. was elected to succeed him. DR.. w.
Emery, of Massachusetts, was chosen as
first vice presidents; George Il. Bidwell, of

Innocence Punished.

There is familiar story of fox,
which, having killed goose, buried ii
beneath some leaves and went off to in
vite a companion to share his feast.
While he was gone, gentleman who
had witnessed these proceedings took
the goose away and waited to see what
would happen, Pretty soon he saw
Reynard returning, another fox with
him; they came to the place where the
goose had been left, but no goose was
there! Fox No. 2. thinking he had been
deceived, gave the would-be host a
sound cutting, which was received with
out protest An English gentleman
relates a similar anecd0te, with a
tragic ending.
was strolling beside a brook, when
my attention was arrested by some
thing floating in the stream, which
proved to be a dead dog. There was
nothing so very unusual in the sight OF
dead animal in either brook OF pond,
but there was peculiar motion about
this particular carcass which fixed my
eye.
AS stood trying to account for it, an
enormous rat left the carcass and made
on down the watercOurse. Knowing

past, and 1 determined to interfere a
little, if this were the rodents plan.
Accordingly l cut a hooked stick,
make my way from stone to stone to the
dead dog, hauled him up high and dry
on the bank under bush and waited.
Scarcely was all still again when the
old rat returned. and in his train came
twenty-four more rats straight to the
spot where the dog had been. Had l
fOreSeen the consequences OF my med
ding it had been there still.
No sooner did the unlucky old fellow
find the treasure tr0ve gone than he ut
tered most piteous scream and darted
up the brook like an arrow.
Such an excited, angry squeallng as
those twenty-fOur rats set up! Before
their deceiver had gone twenty yards
they overlook him, and forthwith slew
and deveured him. The death Of rat
more or less does not matter, but con-
fess that I felt sharp twing of con-
science at the result of my experiment.

tells the tale of a quickly-secreted
cigar.
Verify, this is the period of frank, in
genuious youth and the second age of
the smoker.
The succeeding period may be termed
the cigarette age. You remember it. al
though it is as long ago as your first
year in college. Now the smoker
comes partly out from under his cover,
and, without betraying the shame that
may still linger within him. he smokes
before everybody except the dual head
of his own family.
The nose has been converted, after
many strane ling failures, into an escape
tiue, and through it he projects parallel
streams of smoke almost down 10 the
tips of his toes without bringing tear
to the eye. He rolls his cigarette HIM
self with envlable grace, and his fingers
wear the indelible yellow OF the nico-
tine.
The cigarette habit, if overcome at all,
is commonly lost simultaneously with

the rising Dinner, the fearful squall and
then, OH, myl You follow me do, you
not? How delicious was the wicked
ness of possession in the case of the
1irstcigarl Was there ever anything
more graceful than the manner i'll
which Won lighted it, Notwithstanding
the coughing spasm excited a moment
before by the effort to bite off the butt
like man?
The first draught scatters sweet in
cense, the confidence of the youth
grows with each succeeding roll of
smoke until the inevitable hack comes
driving up his throat Coughs and strug-
giles now engross him. The smoking
assassin falls from the nerveless finger
of It's victim. The earth itself waves
like FLAG in the breeze. Houses, erst-
while staid and proper, dance the can
can. The head waltZes. The face is as
chalky as the tip of billiard cue. The
mouth witches and the eyes swim.
The daunted smoker can no longer con-
tain himself, and then-oh, myi-cries
for New York alternate with ferYent
prayers for death.
While thus the injured stomach is
getting even with the foolish youth, re-

the wisdom teeth, and then the cigar
again returns to power. The young
alumnus goes home with diploma in
his pocket and a cigar IN his mouth.
He is man at last, beyond all contro-
vtrsy, and the cigar is at once the most
delightful and the most decisive means
of asserting it. He poisons the air of
the entire household, defenseless now
in his glitterng presence, and in vain
his sister ScatterS Sachet bags all around.
His most persistent a1fectatiOn is dis
eliminating taste, regardless of tbs
probability that he could not recognize
the difference between a Key West and
cabbage. His vest pockets are filled
with rows of cigars, and he is all-uncon-
scious that he is eXulting in the pride
that ever precedes fall.
The warning cloud. not larger than
woman'S eye, is already in the horizon,
but the confident speaker is unheeding.
Not until he comes into the very shadow
of the forbidding froWn that wrinkles
the brow OF the loveliest girl in the
world does he feel his strength slipping
away. Her altar cries aloud for sacri-
fee, and Cupid draws his bead on the
Woner'S cigar. 1t is no smoke or no wei
come in the house of the fair prieSteSS
OF his heart. and the lover and his dar-
ling habit are soon parted. He is now
in the SWearing-otf period, the saddest
of all the sad ages in the smokers life.
The cigar it was that first marked him
a man and now its absence not less
plainly tells the tale of his surrender.
He mournfully gives away his smoking
outfit and trusts his approving con-
science to compensate him for the
mockingS of his cynical friends who
tempt and taunt him on every possible

Of course it is now too late to mend his
ways.
Meanwhile the sin is transmitting it.
self stealthily to the rising generation.
and when the father lays down his cigar
for sweeping glance at the morning
paper the chip of the old block steals a
puff or two.
By and by the candle of life burns
Snort, and the gray shadows OF the
seventh and last age of the smoker
gather around him. Fewer and fewer
cigars satisfy the palling appetite and
upset the enfeebled head. A smoke has
now become very serious and labOriOus
affair. tedious and engrossing. Every
draught upon the cigar winds the ven
cradle slave, and he thinks not only
twice, but half dozen times before
taking another puff. 1t is still solace,
but in second as we'll as in first child
hood, the cigar is trying companion.
All the worlds stage,
And all the men and women merely players.
They have their exits and their entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages. At first, the in
FAINT,
Mewlng and puking in its nurses arms:
And then, the whining school boy, with his
satchel
And shining morning face, creeping like a
snail
Unwllingly to school; and then, the lover,
Signing like furnace. with Woeful ballad
Made TO his mistress eyebrow; then, SOL
der
Full OF strange oaths and bearded like the
pard,
Jealous in honor, sudden and quick in quar-
rel,
Seeking The bubble reputation
Even in the lannon's mouth; and then, the
justice,
In fair round belly. with good capon lined,
With eyes severe, and beard of formal cut,
Full of wise saws and modern instances,
And so he plays his part: The sixth age
shifts
Into the lean and slippered pantaloon;
With spectacies Oh nose. and pouch Oh side;
His youthful hose, well saved, world too
wide
For his shrunk shank; and his big manly
voice,
Turning again toward childish treble, pipes
And whistles in his sound: Last scene of all,
That ends this strange, eventful history,
In second childishness. ana mere oblivion;
Sans teeth. sans eyes, sans tatte, sans every

occasion. Now and then the poor,
earthly mortal may backslide, but his
resolution returns with sting when
his keen-scented love calls him horrid,
mawkish thing and parties his saluting
embrace with an infeXible quarantine.
New situations call for new tactics.
After marriage he never has an i'll or
pain that he does not skillfully insinuate
into the solicitous mind Of his wife the
suspicion that his abstinence from to-
bacco is the seat of the trouble. ''He is
afraid that his nature requires smoke
