their way with him, thankful for the res
pite which their quiet acceptance of him
gave. He avoided looking at the bride,
dreading to meet her glance lest it should

of the crowd his desire to explain matters
withdrew into the background. This

The affair had developed complications
for which he was totally unprepared,
and he wanted time to think, to assimi-

had been so different from his wv pre-
conceived arrangement of them that his
mind for the N was thrown out
of gear. and stood supire, accepting that

Something IS lost
when you use DR.. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy. It's Catarrh. The worst
cases yield to its mild, soothing,
cleansing, and healing properties.
No matter how bad your case, or of
how long standing, you can be cured.
Incurable cases are rare. It's worth
$500 to you, if you have one. The
manufacturers of DIR. Sage's Remedy
are looking for them. They'll pay
you that amount in cash, if they
can't cure you. It's a plain square
offer from a responsible business
house, and they mean it. 1t seems
too one-sided, too much of a risk.
1t would be-with any other medi-
cine behind it. 1t only goes to prove
what's been said t: incurable cases
are rare-with DR.. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy.
Other so-called remedies may pal
late for a time this cures for all
time. By its mild, soothing, cleans
ing and healing properties, it con-
quers the worst cases. 1t removes
offensive breath, loss or impairment
of the sense of taste, smell or hear
ing, watering or weak eyes, when
caused by the violence of Catarrh,
as they all frequently are.

all in the course of one evening ought
to be text enough for good prohibit
ton sermon. Nowhere bat in Europe
would it be tolerated. American stu
dents are happily exceptions to the pre-
vailing degradation of the universities
of Europe. Americans do not take
kindly to the idea of wholly brutalizing
human beings If they drink it is gem
orally in moderation, or if they get
drunk it is the result of Il loss of self
control rather than the outcome of
deliberate determination to drink ones
self into the likeness of beast. What
is true of American students in the
universities is true of Americans study
ing art or music in Europe. A leading
musical instructor recently stated that
of all the American pupils under his
care for the past quarter of century
he had not known a single one to go
astray or fail to make the most of the
advantages within his reach. Amer
leans have still the virtues of new
people, and may they long retain them.

They Arc Often Seen.

What prodigious amount of anger
is evolved when anybody rises to object
to the too prevalent custom of cigar
smokers making d nuisance of them
selves in public. People who carry
lighted cigars into the cars, or WHO send
smoke and ashes icto a street-car from
the front platform, or i'll other ways
and places show that they are not gem
tlemen, understand quite well that they
annoy somebody. But they are indig'
nant that anybody should be annoyed.
They know that tobacco is unpleasant
to many people, and they are savage
because it is The fact is that people
who respect the feelings of others are
getting very scarce, and it is one of the
consequences of the mob forcing itself
into ascendancy. The man who can
not ride lew miles without the aid of
bad cigar ought to walk.-Ram's Horn.

DRINK AND LONG LIFE.
A Comparison Between Total Abstinence
and Moderation.

and Moderation.
When the death of a centenarian is
reported in the newspapers, it usually
ELECTS from the reporter one of two
comments. We are either told that the
deceased had been all his life total alb
stainer from tobacco and alcoholic
beverages, or else that he had always
INDUCED with moderation in those
Stimulants. On such statesmen, even
if authentic, we could not base any
trustworthy inference regarding the eff
feet of alcohol upon longevity first, be-
cause the facts are contradic 5ory, and
secondly, because they are too few.
The large amount of data needed for
even provisional induction is now for
the first time presented by an English
life insurance company. which has been
for some years collecting statistics
/ bearing on the subject. The Scepter
| Life Association, which has been in eX
istence for Il quarter of a century, has
kept two records of the persons insured,
total abstaincrs being claSsed in one
section and all other risks in another,
the so-callcd general section. Even
from the last-named category heavy
drinkers and persons engaged in the
| liquor traffic are excluded. The data,
therefore, collected by the company arc
intended to afford the means of com
parison between total abstinence and
moderate Indulgence in alcoholic bever-
ages as regards the effect upon lon
gevity
The results of the company's eX-
pcricnce during the five years ending
December, 1883, have just been pub
lishcd. In the general section during
that period six thousand seven hundred
lives were insured; in the abstinence
section, four thousand five hundred and
twenty In the general section
the actual deaths constituted only
seventy-six per cent. of the deaths eX-
pected, according to the British act
uaries' tables. On the other hand, in
the abstinence section the actual deaths
were only tifty-seven per cent. of the
deaths expected. The evidence sup
piled by these statistics must be adj
mitted to be cogcnt, if not absolutely
conclusive. 1t indicates that even a
moderate drinker is much less likely
than q total abstainer to live TO an adj
vanced age.
Another interesting fact is brought
out by the medical examiner of this
life insurance company. lie says that
, in the examination of many thousands
{ of applicants he has found that total
abstainers, as a rule, exhibit a much
, cleaner condition of the tongue, resem'
bling, indeed, that of a young child. His
, observations have also led him to concur
: with the late Baron Liebig in affirming
: that total abstaincrS eat more thar
: moderate drinkers. N. Y. Ledger.

STUDENT BEER-DRlNKERS.

Immense Quantities Consumed at Tie
German Universities.
Students in Iowa colleges generally
lead q qui(t as we'll as sober life. 1t is
far different in European universities
where drinking and dueling are as pop
ular as football at Harvard or Yale.
Mr.. John ). Nollcn, d graduate of the
State University and one of the bright
est and most promising young men of
Iowa, who is now enrolled as Il student
at Zurich in recent letter gives an in
teresting account of a drinking bout
among the students of that school. The
letter is written to his father, Mr.. John
Nollen. of Pella. In it he says:
Last Saturday the Zotlnga the students
society to which some OF the fellows who stay
here belong, had its grand annual drinking
bout, to which representatives from all the
lodges or chapters in switzerland, former
members, etc, came to take part. There were
about two hundred present and on Saturday
night they drank twelve hundred quarts OF
beer beside wind and sundries! OF course q
good share Of the twohundred were dead drunk.
That seems to be the fun of 1t. On Sunday they
had q procession through the streets, then pro-
ceeded by special boat to HorGen where they
once more loaded up. Next DAY tnere WIS sun
more drinking and some of the fellows had 10
be carried OF in cabs. 1t was disgusting spec
tacle"
After giving an account of the great
university drinking bout Mr.. Noilen
says:
When went to Cham few days ago, the
noted Dr. Muese was on the train, also bound
for Cham. In our conversation VIC happened
to touch upon the alcohol question. / asked
him low long he thought it would be before
Europe would adopt prohibition. He said
nev4r Europe is drifting steadily IN the oppo
site direction. Alcoholism is getting worse
every year. He said that the conviction had
been forced upon him from long and wide eX
pericnce tat Europe was going to utter and
tnev1taC4e ruin through alcohol The
worst saloon ridden town in the West is tenn
perance paradise compared with acohol-soaket
Europe. Here alcohol is not only king but q
god who receives the abject alteration OF the
natives and there ie hardly whisper against
his absolute power, hardly II revolt against the
fearful sacrifices he demands for his altar"
This view of Europe is rather gloomy
one but i is probably not over-esti
mated. The disgrace of a drinking bout
in which each student drinks six quarts
