ONE of the things used to paralyze
the nerve of Tammany in the Chicago
convention was a circular issued by it
in 1876 at st. LOUIS, declaring that Til
den could not carry New York in the
event OF his nomination. In form and
substance 1t was almost Identical with
the circular issued against Cleveland,
and it did more than anything else to
soIIdify the Cleveland strength in op-
position to the tiger. There is only one
way in which Tammany can defeat a
man it hates, and that is to presume to
be in favor of him.

CURES FOR DRUNKENNESS.
The Farcical Reform by Artificial
ytifnulants.

Stimulants.
A credible citizen of Kansas reports
that many of the reformed drinkers in
that state, whose reformation was
largely due to the difficulty of obtain
ing liquor under the prohibitive legis-
lation in that state, have taken to such
stimulants as antipyrine and quinine.
1t is well-known fact that there are
slaves to the ginger habit no less
firmly shacl1led than the rum slave
himself Even the number of those
who are addicted to very strong tea
made, contrary to all cookery canons,
by boiling the tea and water together
lis fast increasing; and they are APP
parently so bound to that kind of tea,
that tea properly drawn" is not what
their appetite Graves.
Now all of these subtances are in
furious to the human mind and body,
and through them to the morals of this
class of habit-slaves While they do
not intoxicate, it is certain that their
habitual use is debasing. The serious
question arises: If the drink
abandons his alcohol and fees to these
habits, has he really reformed? The
answer must be in the negative.
After abandoning the alcohol. the
only proper substitute is well-cooked,
nutritious food: not only bread and
beef and milk, but also special food for
the nerves to strengthen the will-pow-
err and induce sleep in season. The
artificial and transient stimulation of
alcohol must be supplanted by the
stimulation of healthful food, clean,
well-aired apartments and regular rest.
ut proper intervals, for mind and body.
Nature will assert her supremacy If
artificial hindrances are removed. The
young and middle-aged habitues of al
cohol have, on this view of the case, no
excuse whatever for relapse. The farce
reform of giving up one species of
excessive artificial stimulation and
adopting another is probably the most
serious obstacle in the way of curing
the drink evil. In the case of older
habitues it must be-though regretful-
ly-admitted that as they have lived
they must continue to live-stimulant of
some kind they must have. They are
past the stage of nature in which phys
zeal upbuilding is sufficiently active to
eradicate a lifelong craving and to
partially repair the natural waste of
the body at the same time Hence
healthful food, drink, fresh air and
rest-nature' stimulants-wi will not be
sufficient for them.
In word, cure of drunkenness sup
poses nature assisting in the reform.
In addition to this temptation must be
avoided. The victim must suffer for
awhile, and must expect to suffer: to
be strong against his failing; to feel
an aching void; to tear himself away
from his former lie; to be calm, and
watchful, and patient Unless he in
tends, at the beginning of his strug-
gle, TO do these things, it win be use
less for him to enter upon il. No mat
ter what the "cure" may be-in these
matters the patient must minister unto
himself.-Once Week.

why should this little girl be so proud
of a dress composed of the cast-of
