The drink habit is often quickly and

gets a man in its full power how it
losses him about like strong lion.
slipped into garden of cabbages. The
garden was inclosed with a wire fence.
The young rabbit had good and jolly
time in that garden as he Toasted daily
on the luscious cabbage. He had heard
of the danger of traps and wire fences,
but he did not seem to see any imme-
date danger around him, so he con-
cluded to remain all summer in that
delightful place. The more he ate of
the cabbageS the larger he grew He
never dreamed that he might grow too
large to get out through the hole he
came in at. But that was just pre-
cisely the danger that was soon to
overtalle him. He fattened daily upon
the delicious food. He soon became as
large as a grown rabbit, but the only
hole of escape didn't grow a bit larger
One day he heard the football of a man
coming into his garden and he con-
cluded he would slip out and disappear
in the bushy swamp. So he ran to the
hole he came in at, and 10. and behold,
his body had grown entirely too large
to squeeze out through it. Now what?
All, he is so surrounded by the wire net
as to fall an easy prey to the owner Of
the garden. He was caught and killed.
The application to the dram-drinller
is easy. Every dram he drinks is put
ting up the wire fence of the confirmed
habit of drunkenness. His appetite is
growing insensibly. Like the rabbit,
he has jolly time for awhile and sees
no sign of danger. After awhile some
thing occurs which alarms him about
his safety. He resolves to get out of
his wire fence of dram drinking, but
10! he finds that his liquor appetite has
grown from a babe to giant, holding
him firmly in the grasp. This simple
parable tells the story of thousands
who are to-day passive slaves to the
wine cup. "Wine is a mocker and
cunning deceiver. Rams Horn.

SHORT SPECIALS.

B0STON'S new temperance law is
re- Ter peculiar. 1t permits any man
to get tight twice a year without pun
enness the third time, his sentence is
imprisonment for year,
INTEMPERANCE, like treason, ought to
be made odious in the land, and there
is very close similarity between the
two. The reasonable man endeavors
to dethrone the rightful sovereign, and
intemperance dethrones reason from
her throne, and reason is the presiding
spirit of our soul, the ruler of our soul.
The canteen is the official army sa-
loon; it is a national declaration in ap-
proval of the liquor traffic, an admiS-
sion of its necessity. 1t is a declara-
ton that drunkenness and debauchery
are unavoidable among disciplined men;
it is an open door with an officer stand
ing before it to encourage his men to
partake freely of intoxicants; it is a
direct insult to large and growing
public sentiment which, recognizing
the awful evils of drink, pleads for to-
tai abstinence and the abolition of the
saloon.-N. Y. Independent.
THERE is no class of American citi-
zens that has suffered more from the
drink curse than the old soldiers. The
drunkenness seen on every hand at
their reunions is most deplorable. The
recent action of the committee on their
national encampment at Detroit, decid-
ing to spend five thousand of the ten
thousand dollars for the banquet for
wine, should call forth vigorous pro-
tests from every Christian church and
from every person having the welfare
of our land at heart. When will all
the American people wake up to the
danger that the liquor traffic is threat
eDing?-The Lever.

DRUNK ON COFFEE.


Once Under the influence of the Ferry
Release Is Almost Impossible.
In the course of his studies Dr. Men
del found very few instances in which
the confirmed coffee drunkard was
ever cured. The symptoms constantly
grow worse, and are only to be re-
lieved by large quantities of the bever-
age the abuse of which has caused
them. In this way the victims 20 from
bad to worse, for, though well aware
of the mischief being wrought, they
suffer so severely that they are afraid
to abandon the habit lest death snoGId
end the agony they experience.
After beginning with the agreeable
infusion of the roasted berries they are
driven, in their search for something
more powerful, to swallow the tincture,
which, though it operates for time
in the direction desired, soon loses its
efficacy and has to be swallowed in
greater and greater quantities, the evil
influence of the coffee being, of course,
heightened by the alcohol used to ex-
tract its essential ingredients. When
brandy is taken, only temporary relief
follows, though not infrequently the
intoxication produced by the latter is
eagerly welcomed in order to deaden
the anguish caused by the inordinate
indulgence in the former.
The last stage of this peculiar dis
ease shows itself in the sallow face and
chilly hands and feet of the victims,
coupled with an expression of dread
ana agony which settles over the coun-
tenance-a form of melancholia, al
ternated by hysteria, only to be tenn
porarily relieved by repeated applica-
ton to the coffee pot or to strong
tincture formed by sleeping the crushed
berries in spirits of wine. Meantime
the diseased state of the body is demon
strated by the acute inflammation,
which is apt to supervene at any mo-
ment. A bruise, Il cut, a prick or a
sting, which in a healthy person would
be scarcely noticed, is the starting
point for Inflammation of an erysipela-
tOus character, so that it seldom hap
pens that the coffee inebriate is long
lived.
Coffee drunkards are more common
among people of nervous temperament
than in the ranks of the stolid, phleg-
matte folks, not easily moved by any
stimulus, or who, like many Germans,
prefer eating to drinking. London
