able suggestions. 1t SAYS:

that where the pioper effort Is made
to ascertain the peculiarities of the

highly satisfactory. Much Of the sue

foreigners are not satisfied with our

which, says the trade journal, ''may

HE SPOKE OUT IN MEETING.
and 1t Was tho Cause In After Years OF
Another's Doing Likewise.


A pleasing story of Rufus king as a
young man, told by one of his friends
TO another many years ago. has re-
Gently been retold.
1t seems that Mr.. King, then a young
lawyer in the practice of his profession
in Boston, had been detained over a
case which called him to Plymouth un-
I'LL late one Saturday evening. 1t was
necessary that he should be back in
Boston Monday morning, so he mounted
his horse early on Sunday and began a
leisurely journey homeward.
After several hours travel he came
to plain little wooden building on n
roadside knoll, through the doors and
windows of which, open to admit the
oalmy air of summer, he could see an
assembled congregation apparently en-
gagged in religious services.
Allghting, out of Difference to the
day, Mr.. King quietly hitched his horse
to tree, entered and sat down. ex-
pecting to be presently edited by hvmn
or sermon. Much to his surprise
neither was forthcoming, and he pres
entity perceived that he was attending
Quaker meeting in season when
the spirit did not move any of the
worthy brethren to discourse.
! Dead silence prevailed and continued,
with no prospect of break, as lona as
the unexpected guest could endure it.
Then he rose in his place, and, without
explanation or introduction, delivered
an address upon suitable topics-a
most excellent impromptu sermon, in
tact-to which, good as it was in mat
ter, his manner, which was that of the
born orator, his youth, his dress of
"the worlds people," his handsome
presence and the surprise of his auditors
lent still further effect.
He spoke for some twenty minutes
and then slipped out as unobtrusively
as he had entered, leaving behind him
an astoniahed and delighted congrega-
tion and mystery that employed the
tongues Of the village gossips for months
to come
twas at length solved-to the sur
prise Of MIR. King and very different
kind OF audience-some years later,
when the young lawyer, then dis
tinguished man, rose during session
of the Massachusetts constitutional
convention to make motion. He was
no sooner upon his feet and facing his
honorable colleagues than a Quaker
member in back seat came suddenly
to his feet also, forgetful of time and
place, and cried, in an nirrepressible out
burst:

Rye Whisky TippIe.

(which one of the alcoholic liquors
is the least injurious for man to drinlz?"
This question was asked Philadelphia
physician of recognized eminence. He
endeavored to answer it honestly in
the light of his large experiences; but
since both the question and his answer
implied that every alcoholic liquor is
injurious, nobody who would not wish
to infict needless injury upon himself
will care to know what was the reply.
The doctor, however, told a story that
ia worth more than his answer to the
question. When in the west several
years ago, the physician spoke to a
judge, who has since died, of the con-
siderable number of rugged old west
ern lawyers whose invariable tipple
was rye whisky, and raised the ques-
tion whether that was not the least
harmful of strong drinks. Doctor"
