DRINK IN THE ARMY.
Perniclous Effects Of Moderate Drinkin,
Among Oflicers.

Pernlclous Effects of Moderate Drinking
Among Ontcers.
A good point is scored by Mrs. Nc
Clees for American patriotism. Women
may reasonably protest when they see
the nations defenders going over to the
enemy by adopting the vices OF foreign
countries.
THE truth is land the good of the
army and navy should not allow us to
overlook it) that United States officers
with few exceptions arc so-called mod
crate drinkers and they also ape for
eign customs too much.
THE name 'canteen,' for instance;
for although it may have signified in
the Spanish army more than a century
ago cellar for the sale of liquors, with
accompaniment of music, such as was
once the case in the United States ma
w when the grog tub was nailed to the
mast of the ship and the blue jackets
were marched to their daily ration by
musical sounds, and although it might
have had the English meaning of per-
ipatetic store chest which afterwards
became a permanent refreshment room
for the British army or a so-called
club room for the French troops; vet
history records for us the sad conse-
quences resulting, viz, greater intoxi-
cation found within the camp limits
than without, so that the attention of
parliament was called to an investiga-
ton which resulted in prohibition.

her rest. who taught his own infant
lips prayers which he had long ago for
gotten to utter.
The child went on and completed her
little verse, and then, as prompted by
the mother, continued:
God bless mamma, papa and my
own self''-then there was pause, and
she lifted her troubled blue eyes to her
mothers face:
God bless papa" prompted the
mother, softly.
God bless papa, lisped the little one.
"And-please send him home SOBER"
he could not hear the mother as she
said this, but the child followed in q
clear, inspired tone:
'God-bless papa-and p'easc- send
him-home-sober. Amen"
Mother and child sprang to their feet
in alarm when the door SO suddenly
opened, but they were not afraid when
they saw who it was, returned so
soon; but that night, when little Mary
was being tucked up in bed, after such
q romp with papa, she said in the sleep

What a fearful record liquors are

Britain paid out over 800, 600, 600 for
the liquors they drank last year! Yet
that country has more suffering poor
people than all the other civilized na-
tions combined. Liquor rules England,
and her citizens of all classes profit and

that one bishop and ISL other Brit
ish peers own 1859 places in which
liquors are sold in England. The earl
of Derby owns seventy two, the duke
OF Bedford forty-eight, and the duke of
Devonshire forty-seven. The bishop,
being poor, owns only two! License,

Alcohol Instead of Eoot,.

A New York physician, whose name
IL not given, says that many men, who
think they are too busy to cat lunch at
midday, and therefore resort to alco-
hollc drinks as a substitute, are doing
the worst possible for their stomachs;
that 'Alcoholic stimulants are the
worst thing in the world for an empty
stomach, finally causing catarrh of the
stomach, interfering with the secre-
lions oaohe liver, and destroying the
aolllty to assimilate food" When
men come to him in that condition he
taxes away the whisky or other alco-
nc,,es At once, and prescribes hot
milk and vichy. Where cold milk or
solid food would be rejected bv the
ecbled stomach, the hot milk. with
one-third vichy, will be retained, and
many under this treatment have been
reclaimed.-N. Y. Sun.

Aho saving influence OF Little Child's
Prayer.
One night well-known citizen of a
western city who had been walking for
some time in the downward path. came
out of his house and started down town
for night of carousal with some old
companions he had promised to meet
His young wife had besought him with
lmploring eyes to spend the evening
with her, and had reminded him of the
time when evenings passed in her CON-
pahy were all too short His little
daughter had chung about his knees
and coaxed in her pretty, willful way

stories; but habit was stronger than
love for child and wife, and he eluded
her tender questioning by the deceitc
and excuses which are the convenient
refuge of the intemperate, and so went
on his way.
When he was some blocks distant
from his home he found that in chang

his wallet, and he could not 90 on a
drinking bout without money, even
though he knew his family needed it,
and his wife was economizing everv
day more and more in order to make
up his deficits; so he hurried back and
crept softly past the window of his
little home in order that he might steal
in and obtain it without running the
gauntlet of either questions or caresses.
But as he looked through the window
something stayed his feet; there was a
fire in the crate within-for the NIGHT
was chill-and it lit up the little parlor
and brought out in startling effect the
pictures on the wall But these were
nothing to the pictures on. the hearth.
