but do not crush the perpetrator. If
there is one vital spark of manhood
left, hunt it out, and fan it into
healthy growth through manly and
humane methods, and society will reap
the reward of the development.
In the case above referred to, we can
see no good reason why this man
should not accept the liberty offered
him; as both society and the party
wronged acknowledged the payment
of the debt; and to refuse receipt
in full for any obligation, appears
quixotic, to say the least. There may
be some great object in this refusal,
but upon the surface it does not appear
that reparation was the controlling
one. Neither can we see how few
more years in prison will make his
resolutions any firmer or his conscience
easier. He has demonstrated the
honesty of his heart in refunding the
money to his victim; he has most clear
ly shown that the punishment inflicted
has borne good fruit. 1t was good
medicine for his particular disease. and
the only thing to be feared now, is, an
overdose. Peculiar case; peculiar man

The Parents Drank.

A distinguished specialist has care
fully noted the difference between -
families of drinkers and II families of
temperate persons during II years,
with the result that he found the -
drinking families produced in those
years 81 children, while the temperate
ones were accountable for 81. Of the
drinkers, % children died in the first
week of life, as against six on the
other side. The latter deaths were
from weakness, while the former were
attributable to weakness, convulsive
attacks, or pdema of the brain and
membranes. TO this cheerful rec
ord is added five who were idiots; five
were so stunted III growth as really to
be dwarfs; five older became epileptics;
another boy ended in idiocy; five more
were diseased and deformed, and two
epileptics became by inheritance drink
ers. Ten only of the 81 showed dur
ing life normal disposition and devel-
opment of body and mind. Fifty of
the children of the temperate families
were normal in every way.-American

the brains. we are rather inclined to
