The man-of-warsman's costume is
one of Redtern's most noted suits. He
has been making it over and over again
for years. Royalty and nobility have
taken their sea trips in costumes just
like it. and the New Yorker, the Chica-
goan, or even the supercilious Bosto-
man find it just as becoming to their
varied types of beauty. 1t should be

A WOMAN'S STORY.
Brilliant Intellect That Was Destroyed
by Drink,


Mere tragic in its ending than com
mon, it was but the same old story.
Some weeks before she sent for me- |
had never met her, but they lived near
my church. The children were in the
Sunday school, and she felt she must
make appeal to some one. With
streaming eyes and choking voice she
told of their bright outset in life, of the
gradual yielding to temptation, and
then of the present shame and distress.
Some twenty-five years ago he came
to this country bright young theo-
logical graduate He was soon in the
pastorate of the strongest church of
his denomination in the city. A
splendid structure was soon built, and
there was rapid il wease in mum bers
He was very companionable and elo-
quent They called him the German
Beecher. He was petted and fattered
Makers and sellers, as well as social
drinkers of liquors, were mem bers of
the church. He was asked and expect
ed to drink with them. Soon the de-
mon of thirst was aroused. Sometimes
he was jolly, then hilarious. Occasion
ally he drank to excess. Then they be-
gan to be ashamed of a pastor who
could not drink with them and yet re-
main sober. He was forced to resign.
But after little, SOLDERING up, and as
surances that he could now stand firm
he easily entered the pastorate of
another church in the same city.
Prosperity again came, another
church was built, and the old-time pop
ulArity revived But the same drink
customs continued, and soon the old
appetite ruled. Again tho shame of
his people forced him from the pulpit;
but, as he retained his credentials as a
minister. and was naturally man of
much social power, he was still in cur
rent demand for funerals, baptisms,
marriages and various semi-religious
aud social occasions. Instead of COM
ing to his house. they would stop at
the nearest saloon and send for him,
and ask him to drink with them, while
arranging with him for these services.

and much more? Poor soul! She

perance.
The Register some time ago called
attention to the increase in the manu-
facture of distilled liquors in the
United States. The complete statistics
of the internal revenue department
make this increase clear, not only in
the case Of distilled liquors, but of to-
bacco. The total number of cigars
made last year wa, T. 406, 500, 9Si, an in
crease of 3s7, COZ, 7s4. The total num-
Der of cigarettes, 2976 270, ss5, an in
crease of 4s6, 400, $50 The cigar bill Of
the nation domestic cigars only-iA
therefore, taking the average price as
~ cents, $3.50, 000 900. The cigarette
bill will add at least sec, 900, 900 to
this, making the total $3.50, 900, 600. To
this must be added 5000, 900, 900 for to-
bacco in its various other forms. The
increase is figured at about $50, 900, 600.
That does pretty well for one year.
During the same time the increase in
distilled liquors was 5000, 900 gallons
and 5000. 900 barrels of beer bre wed
The increase in the former is not so
marked as the increase in beer. The
tendency seems to be to the greater
consumption of the lighter drinks
The total liquor bill was probably not
far from 81, O0O OOO 900 The increase
for the year about $50, 900, 900. But
this does not mean that all temper
ance work has been ineffective, for
without efforts of that character the
increase would have been much larger
than it is. Surely these figures are ap-
palling in their magnitude, and they
should arouse every patriot and
Christian worker to more earnest eff
forts in behalf of temperance. Iowa

GRAlNING Mich COWS.
Does 1t Pay to Feed Cows Grain When

Does 1t Pay to Feed Cows Grain When on
Pasture?
The experiment station of Cornell
university has conducted three expert
ments carried through as many sea-
sons, for the purpose of determining
whether it is profitable to feed grain to
cows when on good pasture
The first two experiments were made
at the station on lots of three cows
each, the cows being in good condition
and running on good pasture. AS some
objection was raised against the test on
the ground that the pastures used were
too rich and the cows too well fed to
show the best results from grain feed
ing in the summer time, the experiment
of 1891 was transferred to herd of six
teen Jerseys and Jersey grades belong
ing to Messrs. c. NJ and w. L. Bean, of
McGrawville, n. Y. This herd had
been accustomed to only a moderate
grain ration in winter and never had
any grain in summer. This herd was
divided into two lots of eight cows each,
the division being made by the station
on the basis of weight, length of time
in milk, length of time in calf, yield of
milk per day and per cent of fat in
milk, and was indorsed by the owners
of the herd in the opinion that the
cows were as evenly divided as it was
possible for them to be"
The experiment continued from May
23d to October 23d, or twenty-five weeks.
One lot of cows received each day four
quarts of a mixture of two parts corn
meal, one part bran and one part cotton
seed meal by weight, fed in two feeds,
night and morning, when the cows were
brought in to be MIXED.
The general results of the three years.
experiments are summarized as follows:
In 1889, in a season in which the pas
turage was very luxurant throughout
the whole summer, with three cows in
each lot. the grain fed lot gave consider.
able less milk which was so much richer
in butter fat, that the total butter pro-
duction was practically the same in the
two lots. In this experiment, the grain
feeding was commenced about month
after the cows had gone to pasture.
In 1890, in a season in which the
pasturage was luXuriant except for a
short time in the middle of the summer,
with three cows in each lot, the total
amount of butter fat produced was al
most exactly the same in both lots In
this experiment the grain fed lot con-
tinued TO receive the same ration on
pasture, that they had been receiving
during the winter on dry feed.
In 1890, in an experiment on soiling
with grass alone, with grass and grain,
just about enough more butter was
produced by the grain feed to pay for
the increased cost of the grain ration.
In 1891, in season in which at no
time the pasture was very luxuriant,
with eight cows in each lot, the grain
fed lot produced just enough more milk
and butter to pay for the increased cost
of the grain ration. In this experiment
the grain feeding was begun about two
weeks after the cows went to pasture.
