the consideration of the report of the com
mittee of the whole on the elective fran
Fhse. Considerable progress was made
and the report will probably be made and

shall be able to understand the same when
read TO him, or give a reasonable interpre-
tation thereof
There being some objection TO the com

lions so materially, the consideration of
the section was postponed for the time be
ing and the remainder of the report
taken up.

one thousand men drunk and sailing
around the streets so dazed and helpless
that they were unable to save them
selves, or to care for their families.
When at last the dam burst, and the
food came and took them all away"
the men who were sober and vigilant
had at least chance for their lives;
but the men who were drunk must of
necessity perish, and their families had
no one to protect and assist them.
We shall find, in the course of our
experience, hours when all our energies
and all our strength will be required to
resist temptation, stem the tide of pas
sion, save ourselves from an untoward
generation, and escape the dangers that
surrounds; and if our lives have been
full of frivolity and vanity and empti-
ness, the jokes and gibes, the mirth and
folly of a lifetime, will be poor prepa-
ration for the hour of death, and poor
preparation for the day of judgment.

tempts either to reform her or prevent
her getting liquor had been failures, it
was stated.

BRAIN DERANGEMENTS.
The Terrible Effect of Alcohol on tn,
Reasoning Faculties.

The Terrible Effect of Alcohol on tho
Reasoning Faculties.
Alcohol seems to have a special af-
finity for the brain. This organ alb
serbs more than any other, and it's deli
cate structure is correspondence af-
fected. The vascular enlargement"
here reaches its height. The tiny YES
SNls become clogged with blood that is
untitled to nourish, because loaded with
carbonic acid, and deprived of the
usual quantity of the life-giving oxy-
gen. Hinton. The brain is, in the
language of the psychologist, NAL
functioned. The mind but slowly raj
lies from the stupor of the fourth
stage, and sense of dizziness and de-
preston remains to show with what
difficulty the fatigued organ RECEIVERS
it's normal condition. So marked is the
effect of the narcotic poison, that some
authorities hold that "a once thor
oughly-intoxicated brain never fully be-
comes what it was before"
In time the free use of liquor hardens
and thickens the membrane enveloping
the nervous matter; the nerve-cor-
puscles undergo fatty degeneration"
the blood-vessels lose their elasticity;
and the vital fluid, flowing less freely
through the INSTRUCTED channels, fails
to afford the old-time nourishment.
The consequent deterioration of the
nervous substance - the organ of
thought-shows itself in the weakened
mind that we so often notice in per-
son accustomed to drink, and at last
lays the foundation of various nervous
disorders-epilepsy paralysis and in
sanity. The law of heredity here again
asserts itself, and the inebriate's chill
dren often inherit the disease which he
has escaped.
Chief among the consequences of this
perverted and imperfect nutrition of the
brain is that intermediate state be-
tween intoxication and insanity, we'll
known as delirium tremens. st is
characterized by low, restless activity
of the cerebrum, manifesting itself in
muttering delirium, with occasional
paroxvsms of greater violence. The
victim almost always apprehends some
direful calamity; he imagines his bed
to be covered with loathsome reptiles;
he sees the walls of his apartment
crowded with foul specters; and he
imagines his friends and attendants to
be fends come to drag him down to a
| fiery abyss beneath. "-Carpenter.

father stayed out at night; but must
go. Good night, DEAR" and off he
went.
From that time on Henry heard no
more reproaches about his staying out
so late. He went out almost every even
ing. One day he was brought home in
a carriage. He had sprained his ankle.
The injury was very severe. The doc
tor said he would be confined in his
house for at least two weeks. At first
he suffered severe pains, and his wife
did all in her power to relieve his suf-
fcrings. She put cold applications to
his swollen limb and alleviated his
agony by reading to him. He immedi-
ately began to improve. While he no
longer suffered physical pain he was
obliged to remain in his room, as the
ankle was too weak to bear his weight.
Now was the time for Mrs. Carter to car
ry out little plan she had matured.
One evening she appeared in the
room of her husband dressed to go out.
She had rose in her hair, and had 9TH
erwise made herself as attractive as pos
sible
81 am going out, dear Henry, to at
tend little social gathering at my Sis
ter's. You need not get up for me. You
can go to bed. I'll take the door key
along and let myself in"
"All right" responded Henry cheer
fully, gritting his teeth as she closed the
door. That's very nice arrangement
for woman to leave her husband at
homo and go cavorting all over the
neighborhood. What shall l do to
amuse MYSELF"
Mrs. Carter did not get home until
very late, but her husband did not re-
proach her. He was too proud for that.
Next night she was off again, and SO
for several consecutive evenings Carter
had to sit up, and he found it very ted
ious. At last she went to ball. She
was accompanied by her brother. She
arrived at her homo simultaneously
with the milkman. On opening the door
she saw her husband white with rage.
Madam" he said sternly, ''you have
been absent all night"
Eyes" responded Mrs. Carter, coolly,
".he ball did not break up until the
wee small hours anent the twa.'"
Mr.. Carter was already very much ex-
asperated, but springing that old gag
upon him aroused him to a perfect
frenzy.

DuELlNG IN GERMANY.
Tragedies That Have Evoked Somethin,
Like Wholesome Retribution.

Tragedies That Have Evoked Something
Like Wholesome Retribution.
Two deplorable cases of death by
dueling have recently occurred at medi-
cal schools in Germany. To one of
these attention has already been drawn
that of the ''candidatus medicus" of
Wurzburg, Paul Fleurer, who fell at tho
third interchange of pistol shots, after
twice holding out the hand of reconcilia-
ton to his implacable adversary. What
action the local authorities, academic or
civic, have taken or mean to take to
bring to Justice the homicide or the
court of honor who aided and abetted
him, we have yet to learn; but we shall
indeed be surprised if the Wurzburg, or,
for that matter the German, public rest
satisfied with the condemnation of the
proceeding delivered by the chief orator,
If not the chief mourner, at poor Fleur-
er's funeral, that he was the victim of
an 'unfortunate prevailing prejudice"
Meanwhile, we are glad to see that
similar tragedy at Freiburg has evoked
something like wholesome retribution
from German law court. According to
the Algemeine Zeitung, of Munich, the
duel in which the 'candidatus medicus"
Solomon lost his life has had the osnse-
quence that the ''hero" of tho encounter,
"the student Boring, has been con-
demned to two years and three months
imprisonment, while the members of
the court Of honor have also been sent
to Jail for a period of six months EACH"
We hope that similar sentences on the
part of the legally constituted tribunals
of Germany will put an end to prac-
tice which is virtually satire on their
own efficiency. For what purpose do
law courts exist if not to consider and
settle such differences as these so re-

has adopted measures to abolish duel

dition handed down from times when
reason and right had no better arbiter
than force? Were the results less Ia
mentable the more civilized world would
find something ludicrous in practice
which makes the legal and medical
schools of Germany the theater of en-
counters in which law is ignored or de-
fed by it's students and in which medi-
cine assists-though often too late-in
healing the wounds inflicted by its fu-

THE MIRTH OF MADNESS.
Foolish Persons Who Sacrifice Sobriety
and Reason to Frivolity.

IeTSonS w no ShcrlHce SODrleIy
and Reason to Frivolity.
There is time to laugh, but that
time is not all the time, as some people
seem to suppose. The appetite for
mirth sometimes becomes too strong,
and all sense, sobriety and seriousness
are sacrificed to frivolity. We have no
special liking for long faces or sour
looks, but empty gable, vain frivolity
and stale and foolish jokes are very
poor substitutes for sober thought and
an earnest life. Men have come to
joke at every thing, public or private,
sacred or profane, divine or devilish.
But Life is not joke, and there is
mirth which savors of madness He
who said: There is time to laugh"
saw the time when he said that laugh
tel is mad" There is an intoxication
of mirth which forbids all serious
thought and prevents all serious action;
and there are times when something is
needed besides mockery and revelry.
