LIQUOR DRINKING IN ENGLAND.

A lady writing to the London newspapers
from fashionable West End urged society
DANES to abstain from drinking champagne
during Lent and give the money thus saved
to the Door. The appeal is q curious one, and
the assumption upon which it Is confden-
tally based is scarcely fattering to the rich
women OF England. How much wine does
a British woman of fashion drink In the
course Of six weeks? Obviously the estimate
would be difficult to make. The writer OF
this appeal declares that III only few
ladies would put themselves bravely into this
little champagne movement during. Lent
hundreds Of starving souls would be re-
lieved.n ..-...
Concurrently with this peculiar appeal
comes the announcement that the British
Government proposes this session to dea!
with the very serious and growing evil OF
home drinking by women OF tbs middle ana
lower middle classes. The existence OF this
vice is due in large measure to the granting
to retail grocers of licenses for the sale OF
wine, beer and spirits. Since this system was
established about twenty years ago the drink
demon has entered thousands OF decent
households and has stayed there with couse-
ouences that are told almost daily In the
police and divorce courts. its victims would
lose caste If seen drinking in taverns or ho-'
tells, but it is deplorably easy for them to ar
range with the family grocer to supply an
occasional bottle Of wine or spirits and enter
it in the Bill as tea or coffee. The thing nj
done every day in thousands Of homes and
almost the only way to kill it Is to abolish
the erocers' licenses, which the Government
is expected to do..-Chicago Herald.

Chicago, u.s. April OThe wheat,
corn and oat markets closed weak. after
many changes. Provisions started strong,
aud continued SO to the end. The clique
bought goo deal Of wheat at
opening and were credited with free sell
ing later on the bulge. Compared with
last plight wheat Is IA of for May aud
6-S for July. Corn is down l-2 aud oats
3-S. Pork shows an advance Of GOc;
lard, ~ 1-2c; and ribs zoe. In addition
to what II considered q disappointment by
the bulls in the status of the Kansas
crop IL was also reported that early rain
was probable in Kansas aud Missouri,
which would relieve the situation and
give the crop a big start. New York had
big selling orders here and the local crowd
got quite bearish. For time the market
found little support from any quarter,
but soon Cudahy's brokers began to pick
up wheat aud alarmed the bears, creating
quite a boom.

Esther Bradshaw went to Mayyille
last Saturday to visit her brother DR..

Jessie Moore is quite sick at the
present time but under the skillful
treatment of DR.. Wight, her health is
improving.
As DR.. Wight, of Yale, was going TO
make professional call last Friday eve
ming, his cutter was overturned by the
gigantic snow drifts just north of this
place. His horse escaping during the
excitement the DR.. was left to the
mercy of the elements but we are glad
to hear that after overcoming numer-
Gus difficulties he reached home in
saftey.
Last Sunday afternoon as Ii. L. d..
Tenant was sitting in youthful 'medi-
tation fancy free" his ears were greet
ed by cries of distress uttered by
female voice. Regardless of storm and
cold Henry seized his hat and sailed
forth to rescue the distressed damsel.
Following the tones of the voice he
finally came to where team of horses
were completely mixed up with a
huge snow drift, while the driver, a
lady, stood by bewildered as how to
extricate the helpless quadrepeds from
their uncomfortable position. Our
hero, taking in the situation at a glance
rose at once to the occasion and by his
energy and valor, quickly brought the
lady and her struggling steeds through
the dangerous drifts and sent them on
their way rejoicing. Now in spite of a
pair of frost-nipped ears Henry is the
hero of the hour.

QUOTATIONS.
BE IL u weakness, IL deserves some praise,
We love the play place of our early days.
The scene is touching, and the heart Is stone
That feels not at the sight, and feels at none,
COOPER.
SO live that when thy summons comes TO join.
The innumerable caravan that moves.
To that mysterious realm where each shall
take
His chamber In the silent hall of death,
Thou 20 not like the quarry slaves at night
Scourged 10 his dungeon, but sustained and
SOothed
BY an unfalterlng trust, approach thy grave
Like one who wraps the drapery of his couch
About him and lies down to pleasant Dreams.
BRYANT.
