industry of it's reward. The highest
duty of the state is to destroy that
enemy.
INEBRIETY is durable in nearly all
cases in the early stages. After rcpeat-
ed poisoning or intoXications for years,
conditions of dcgenerations come on,
from which recovery is very rare. The
drink impulse may die ont, or be per-
manently checked, but the injury to
the brain and nervous system remains
journal of Inebriety.
A MAN was once sitting in saloon.
He had an old battered hat on his head,
short black pipe in his mouth, dirty
shirt and ragged clothes, and DOWN
trodden shoes on. But he had not al
ways been like that; he had seen better
days once. AS he looked out of the
saloon door he saw two tidy, clean
little children come for their fathers
beer. As soon as they were outside the
door the little girl took a drink from
the jug, while her little brother waited
patiently for his turn. The poor
drunkard looked at them very sadly,
and then he said with q sigh: "Ah,
that's how l began, and can't leave it
off now"

Book" says: 1.-The word Intoxicating

con) meaning the poison into which
arrows had been dipped so that their
wound might prove fatal. These
drinks, then, by their very name. are
declared to be poisonous, and since
they are made, with but few eXcep-
tons. from good food-wine from the
luscious grape, ale and beer chiefly
from barley, while spirits have in most
cases a similar origin-we naturally
ask how, then, can they be injurious?
Their bad qualities are almost entirely
called spirits of wine, but now general
ly known as alcohol"
The emperor of Germany has found
unexpected obstacles in the way of tho
passage of the proposed liquor law.
His effort to diminish drunkenness be-
cause of the great increase of this vice
is surely commendable. The cases OF
chronic alcoholism have increased the
last eight years from 4,273 to 10. 800.
The common statement that drunken
ness does not abound in the great beer
countries is effectually diSproved.
Prince Bismarck, however, and other
beer drinkers, and even the law
makers bitterly oppose the proposed
law. At the opening of the reichstag
it met severe opposition and was
laid aside for time. and probably cam
lot pass except in modified form

The new member knows nothing
about these committees. He is purely
a business man and wholly ignorant of
the ways that are dark and tricks that
are vain in parliamentary life. There
fore he gets no choice in the rattle of
these choice committees. They are
promised and pledged by the candi-
dates to the subordinate older members
in return for effective work done during
this contest. But you want to know
why a member should went a chair
manship OF a committee which has
nothing to do. I'll tell you. The clerk
Of the dress parade committee has
nothing to Go; SO the chairman uses
him as private secretary, and the
government pays him, while other
members have to pay for their private
secretaries out of their own pockets.
The chairman requires his committee
clerk to attend to all of his CORE
spondence, look after his interests in
the executive departments, write all of
his bills and resolutions for him, and
look up the law on important points.
In this way a public office becomes
private snap, instead of a public trust.
In recent letter about private sec
retaries, advocated the idea of giving
each member of congress Il private see
rotary at $4,000 per annum. 1t ought to
be done, although it would cost the
country about SS00,000 per annum 1t
is because of the fact that private Sec
retaries are needed that these dress
parade committees have been created;
but it is unfair to cheat the people in
that way and thus give private secre-
taries to shrcwder older members,
while all the others are obliged to pay
for such services out of their congress
sional salaries lpresume that some of
my congressional friends will blame me
for telling this story, but it is better for
the people to have the facts placed be-
fore them. They will ultimately reg
ulate matters when they understand
them Besides, it is but fair that the
new members should know of the ex-
istence of these committees, while they
are making their deals in this contest.

INEBRIerY AND ITS MALADlEs.
A Poison That Cont inmates Future Gem
eratiOnS.

eratiOnS.
Inebriety, as a disease. is more seri-
ously affecting the moral and civil af-
fairs of state than any other that will
come under the notice of the prac-
titioner of medicine. Excepting the
poison of syphilis there is none other
so productive of far-reaching morbid
processes and capable of affecting
all the tissues of the body as
alcohol. The results either of
moderate drinking or chronic al
coholism will extend to generatiCns to
come and show in crime, drunkenness
or nervous disorders. Inebriety and
its attendant malatlies are conditions
of progressive degeneration. And
while one may stand surprised when
he starts out to trace up the history OF
a patient and finds that it can be fol-
lowed back to a drinking father or
mother, yet it is better for the ply
stefan and patient, for the former will
know what is required of him, and the
latter will recognize the ability that
may alleviate his trouble. But prac-
tically there is no limit to the possibili-
ties of convincing information on this
subject, and the more it is studied the
less is there to be said in favor OF the
use of alcohol in any form. Reedcr,

grow monotonous to us, Us we look on
and see how the game is played year
after year, but there is something
perennially interesting after all in the
kaleidoscope changes which occur as
different individuals go through the
ightened their predecessors; and how
differently they all conduct themselves
under exactly similar conditions. OF
course every one of these gentlemen
wants to be favored with a command
ing position upon some one committee,
SO that he may best serve his constitu-
ents; and also upon some other COM
mittee, in a minor position. Thus the
northwestern and Mississippi valley
statesmen want to be members of the
committee on rivers and harbors, so
that they may enhance legislation for
their people by securing appropriations
for the improvements of waterways OF
commerce. Gentlemen from the new
prairie states want to be members OF
the committee on public lands; while
those from the Pacific states want to
be members of the committee on mines
and mining. The candidate who sue

1t is giving away secret, but 1t may
as we'll be known, that there are sew
eral useless committees of the house;
and the sooner they are abolished the
better for the congressman and for the
people. For example, there is the COIN
mittee on expenditures in the interior
department" That is but one by
way of illustration. That committee
holds probably one meeting during an
entire session of congress. But you
will ask what of that, so long as it at
tends to its business. In reply, you
must be informed that the chairman of
that committee has the appointment Of
a committee clerk, who draws Sc per

TIE CURSE OF DRINK.
A Crying Evil Permitted by Social Gus
tom.

tom.
Whatever may be ones opinion re-
garding the wisdom or efficacy of pro-
hibiting by statute the sale of intoxi-
eating liquors, it has never been dis
puted that the use of them, if used
they are, should be regulated by rea-
son, conscience. education, or even by
law when indulgence leads to en-
croachments on the rights of others,
or to serious, undeniable injury of the
person himself who uses them. Nor.
whatever may be said in favor of the
bracing influence of alcohol admin
istered under certain pathological con-
ditions, can it be doubted that grave
damage is inflicted on a community by
the custom of Offering alcoholic bever-
ages at dinners, balls and almost all
social and convivial entertainments.
We are aware that chemists and
Psychologists differ widely as to the
effect of a moderate and carefully
measured consumption of alcohol, and
as to the part which stimulants in gen.
eral have played in the history of the
race. At this moment discussion Of
this rbject by men acknowledged to
be qualified by study and observation
to speak with some authority, is going
on in the columns of the London press.
What ny be called the chronological
and geD graphical record of intoxicating
agents is also curious and Suggestive;
but none of the data and deductions
put forward by the advocates of a
sparing recourse to them impugu the
patent and unchallenged facts, first,
that excessive Indulgence entails i'm
tellectual and moral decay; and Sec
ondly, that our social traditions and
usages, and the prevailing current of
public sentiment not only tolerate but
encourage an amount of drinking quite
indefensible on any theory of hygiene.
He who finds himself continually i'm
vited by those whom he respects to
partake of alcoholic compounds, can
scarcely be expected to debar himself
from resorting to like stimulants in
solitude, and he who has once formed
the habit of solitary drinking is al
most certain to become drunkard.-

SAVAGES AT MEAT.
Peculiar Customs of Some of the Ocean
Islanders.

Islanders.
Natives of the Maldive islands hold
to certain ways of domestic life that to
us seem decidedly unsociaL. To eat
alone insures their highest idea of hap
piness; to retire into the most secluded
corner of their homes. to draw down
the cloths serving as blinds, that there
be no loop-hole through which an out
slider might peer in, is essential to their
pleasure while refreshing the inner
man. One writer suggests that such
caution may arise from fear of enemies
providing about; possibly, says another,
lest incantations, rudely traced in hero
glyphic touch, be cast upon their food,
or, by some wildwood tramp, rites of
hospitality be demanded at their hands.
In the latter case the interloper would
probably be an inferior, and to break
bread or eat salt with any one beneath
the host in rank. riches or dignity is
among these peculiar people an utter
impossibility.
Philippine Islanders are quite the re-
verse; sociability is their very life, and
hearty companionship at meal-times
the height of pleasure; if no person is
near, search will be made in haste, for,
however hungry the savage may be, he
will not eat alone.
D'Israeli says that the Otaheiteans
are naturally social in feeling, and even
gentle in their intercourse with one
another At the hour of repast the
members of family place themselves
at a distance of two o: three yards from
each other, turn their backs, and in
such modest fashion eat, each from his
own basket, in profound silence. -Har-
