The Norwegian scheme is a
step backward. We are teach
ing the children in our public
schools that alcohol is poison,
and this system would take the
money made from the sale of
alcohol to pay the salaries of the
teachers. 1t is too late in the
history ofthe temperance reform
in this country to importthe cor
rupting and debasing schemes of
the Old World.

Those who believe there is a
blessing in the drink are natur-
ally the supporters of high IL
cense, Gothenburg scheme, State
control, or some similar method
by which alcoholic beverages are
legally sold to the people. Total
abstainers. who believe the drink
to be a curse, cannot advocate
any measures which sanction,
protect, and extend its sale. The
evil is in the drink.
The numberof hard drinkers

A curious story is told by the Vienna
correspondent of the London News. A
young man, the representative of a
large firm, who carried large sum of
money with him, recently spent the
night ut hotel at Prcsburg. AS usual,
he remained some time smoking in
bed. Suddenly tho burning cigar fell
to the floor. He bent over to cxtin-
guish it, when he saw a hand projected
from under the bed to put the cigar
out. 1t made him very uncomfortable.
He lay awhile and then saying, aloud:
"How very cold; 1 shall get my fur
coat" he jumped out of bed, flew to the
door and called for help. The would
be lobber was caught. Tie confessed
he knew the occupant Of the room had
money, which lie hoped to get while he
slept. He had been a fireman former
ly, and could not resist the impulse to
extinguish the burning cigar.
