Medical Temperance in Europe.

1t is admitted by professional men
that in the struggle to check inebriety,
which has so largely occupied the most
cultured intellects on the continent of
Europe, very little has been done in
the advocacy of practical abstinence.
The prevailing idea, it is alleged, even
among members of the medical profess
sion there, has been that the increase
OF insanity and of other evils from
drinking, has arisen from the heavier
alcohols, and that pure, unsophisticated
spirits, wines and beers, are really tenn
perance beverages. That a new de-
parture is being taken in this respect by
members of the medical profession is
evident from the fact that such men as
Professor Forel of Zurich, Professor
Bunge of Balse and DIR. Wilhelm Bode
OF Dresden have established and are
vigorously supporting total abstinence
societies in those cities.-Neo York
Tribune.

Entertaining the Veterans.

Plans for the entertainment of the
thousands of Grand Army of the Re-
public visitors who are expected in
Washington at the national encamp-
ment in September, are now under
consideration by the executive COM
mittee. This entertainment only in
cludes bed and shelter for those vete-
rams and Grand Army posts who do not
for themselves arrange these matters.
The committee estimates that there
will be 10000 of this class of visitors to
entertain, and that fund of not less
than 100000 will be necessary to
carry its plans into execution. The
public school buildings will be used
In addition the committee will lease
any large buildings when favorable
terms can be made. But the large pro-
portion of the free quarters will have
to be in buildings especially erected by
the committee. On the grounds of
the Washington monument temporary
buildings are to be erected. These will
each have sleeping accommodation for
$500 men. 1t is proposed to have
twelve of these buildings, which will
afford accommodation for over $4,000.
In the immediate vicinity of these quar-
tiers arrangements will be made for the
erection of large dining halls, where
meals can be served at stipulated fig
ures. In fact, all through the city, in
the vicinity of the school buildings and
other buildings where large bodies of
men are to be quartered some prOvis-
ions must be made for supplying men
with meals. OF course, the committees
will not pay for the meals, as the visi-
tors will assume that part of the ex-
pense. The committee will supply
bedding and cots free of cost, and the
visitors will furnish their own subsis-
tence. The committee is going to care
for the veterans alone. There will be
no arrangements for women accom-
panying the veterans who will &C.
cupy the free quarters. A great
many of the old soldiers will want to
bring their wives with them, and spe-
cial committee, of which Mrs. Clara
Barton, president of the Red Cross as
ISOLATION, is chairman and Miss Cora
@. Curry is secretary, is making ar
rangements to secure quarters for the
ladies. A large proportion will come

Found After Twenty-Five Years.

In 1864, among the soldiers on duty
in Chattanooga was w. o. Blake, a pri-
vate in Company H, Twenty-third Mich
igan Infantry. While in camp here, a
comrade made watch-charm for Mr..
Blake by rubbing smooth both sides of
an English shilling, and engraving upon
it the initials, Z" w. o. B." He carried
the charm a few days, when he lost it,
and during the experiences of after
years, forgot all about it. In 1884, Mr..
Blake moved TO Chattanooga with his
family from Michigan, and rented
house at the corner of Fourth and
Moon streets, and in 1889, while digging
III the yard, he found a small piece of
metal, which upon being cleaned and
polished, proved to be the engraved
coin of 1864 This beats finding a
needle in haystack. - Chattanooga

The Divinity of Justice.

The one divine work-the one Or
dered sacrifice-is to do justice, aud it
is the last we are ever inclined to do.
Anything rather than that. AS much
charity as you choose, but no justice.
" Nay" you will say, "charity is
greater than Justice" Yes, it is greater;
it is the summit of justice-it is the
temple of which justice is the founda-
ton. But you can't have the top with
out the bottom: you cannot build upon
charity. You must build upon justice,
for this main reason, that you have not
at first charity to build with. 1t is the
last reward of good work. Do justice to
your brother (you can do that whether
you love him or noD, and you will
come to love him. 1t is all very fine
to think you can build upon charity to
begin with, but you will find all you
have got to begin with begins at home,
and is essentially love of yourself.
John Ruskin.

How to Have Good Manners.

Doubtless thousands of young people,
and not small number of old ones,
wish every day of their lives that they
could learn the secret of fascinating
others by means of their graceful, ex-
quisite manners. The secret is an open
one. 1t is so easy to learn that it lies
all neglected by the wayside, while they
who would give their dearest treasure
to find it pass by unknowing. 1t is
only this: Fill your heart with good
will to everybody and then practice at
all times the best manners you know,
particularly at home. If you begin at
home this charming manner will, so to
speak, get settled on you and never
leave you. Be just as polite to your Sis
ter as you would to your best girl. Strive
TO gain the good will of mother, father
and brothers and sisters and children
exactly as you strive to gain good will
abroad. There is no place for practic-
ing manners like the home circle; no
place, permit me to say, where it will
be so appreciated. 1t will be a cultivar
ton of heart, mind and body, this en-
deavor to feel nothing but affection for
the home people and treat them as
though they were worthy of as much
consideration at your hands as if they
were the president and his family So
they are worthy. Then from the home
will float around you those sweet, mag
netic influences which will draw the
hearts of all mankind toward you.

Cut 1t Out by the Roots.

1t is very surprising to me that the
Christian Union and other good papers
dwell so earnestly on "the shameless
ness and criminal character of the rum
traffic as shown by its locating too many
saloons near the school-houses." Why
do they not strike their blows against
the planting of saloons anywhere2 The
saloon-keeper looks for location where
he can find customers in abundance,
and now, have no doubt, he considers
the opportunity to implant the love of
liquor in some school children as worth
something for the future but l ques-
ton seriously whether one of the sixty
who planted themselves so near the one
school-house in New York did so for
that reason. Too much stress is laid
on number and location of saloons, es-
pecially in city. With great flourish
of trumpets it was announced two or
three years ago that Boston would have
but half as many saloons as before and
each one must now pay 81 900 license
Great expectations were consequently
INDUCED of gains for the temperance
cause. No one will claim that they
have been realized, for both outside
appearances and criminal statistics
prove that there is far more drunken
ness here now than ever before. Our
police commission might cut the exist
ing eight hundred saloons down to four
hundred, and then the four hundred
down to two hundred, without dmin-
ishing in large degree the amount of
liquor consumed. The only sure, bust
ness-like, Christian way is to cut out the
accursed business by the roots wher-
ever it is found.-Boston Traveller.

What Strong Drink Does.

Strong drink is the nemesis that pur-
sues womanhood with pitiless VEN
geance. The records of our divorce
courts bear testimony to the wrongs
that women suffer at the hands of
drunken husbands. The divorce courts
grind out divorces as regularly as the
mills grind -four. Two-thirds or more
of the petitioners are women, and in
majority of cases dissipation on the
part of the husband has driven them
into the divorce court. The most fire.
quent plea of husbands is abandonment
by the wives. In majority of cases
where man sues his wife for divorce
on the plea of her abandonment of
him the cause alleged is not the real
cause for the dissolution of the mar
riage, as for instance dissipated man
becomes in time so cruel to his wife
she is compelled to desert him,
she is the innocent party, she might
have sought and secured decree of
divorce, but she does not, but the hus-
band files petition for divorce, setting
up as plea the desertion of the wife,
and she, thus forced to rid herself of
his cruelty, makes no defense. Thus
the guilty party secures the divorce, for
cause which he compels, and justifes
himself in the estimation of society.
There are thousands of such cases, es-
pecially in the upper grades of society,
and 80 on a terrible liquor habit con-
tinues to hurl its deadly shafts at our
social fabric. When women vote, our
divorce law will have regular over
hauling, and the rights of both sexes
will be equally respected.-Rev. T. T.
Eaton of Kentucky.

Lemonade by Rule.

Eleanor Hamilton was fourteen years
old, and like most of girls of fourteen
she was fond of the society of young
women even more advanced in age
than herself. So when Kitty Williams,
her dearest friend, aged fifteen, brought
her cousin Maud Williams, aged seven
teen, to Caldwell, Eleanor felt like a
grown-up young lady. 1t was warm
summer afternoon, and Eleanor had
taken her guests to the broad piazza
that was already furnished with two
little tables, hammock, and number
of chairs. 1t was so sheltered by vines
that only stray sunbeam found its
way into the green retreat. Kitty and
Maud had been seated about five min
utes, when trim little maid appeared,
bearing pitcher and three tumblers.
/" Miss Jessie sent you this, with her
compliments.
ooh, lemonadel How kind of your
sisterl" exclaimed Kitty. 81 hope we
will see her this afternoon"
"Jessie is up to her eyes in dough,

"And did she make this delicious
lemonade?"
"Of course she did," said fresh,
blithe voice. "She made it, as she
makes everything else, by rule"
"Oh, Jessie, do tell us your rule.
Somehow L never get it quite right.
Do please tell me exactly how you
made this, and I'll promise to follow
your directions ever after as the
fairy-books say"
"Ive got some mousse packed in the
freezer that must go back to in min
ute. But here's the receipt: To begin
with, allow one lemon to each tumbler
of water. If you want to make lemon
ade for four persons, use four lemons.
Squeeze three and half into a pitcher,
and slice up the last half-lemon. Use
sharp knife, and slice it very thin"
"Why not squeeze all four lemons?"
asked Maud. why add the sliced
lemon?"
For ornament only," answered
Jessie. {" 1t looks pretty in the glasses
with the ice. Then" she continued,
add four tumblers of water, but don't
fill the tumblers quite full. The ice
will melt some, and that weakens the
lemonade trifie. Add three heaping
teaspoonfuls of granulated sugar for
every lemon used, unless you want it
very sweet. Then stir it thoroughly,
so that when the last glassful is poured
out, it won't be mass OF syrup. Last
of all, add some cracked ice."
How much?" asked Eleanor.

answered Jessie, laughing. "Oh,

hasty good-by to her friends, the little

Electric Locomotives.

There are signs that one of the most
startling revolutions of the century is
approaching. Steps are being taken in
the northwest toward the laying of an
experimental track on which many
points bearing on the substitution of
electric locomotives for steam locomo-
tives on trunk lines will be determined,
and electrical engineers throughout the
country are on the qui vive for the next
developments. The three eighty ton
electric locomotives to be used in the
Belt line tunnel, Baltimore, will push
freight train of 1900 tons, including To-
connective, through the tunnel, up an
eight-tenths of per cent. grade, for a
distance of 5000 feet, at the rate of fif-
teen miles an hour, or 500 ton passen-
ger train, including locomotive, at the
rate of thirty miles an hour.
