ALCOHOL AND LONG LIFE.

A lively discussion has arisen among
English periodicals over the proper in
depreciation of statistics which tend to
prove that alcoholic beverages have
been factor in shorter ing life. On the
whole. the death rate in Great Britain
has steadily decreased, but there have
been certain classes in which a marked
increase is noted. A writer in the Hos
pital of February inclines to the belief
that the line marking the increased
death rate runs parallel to that desig'
mating the amount of alcohol consumed
The writer upholds his position sas
follows: I'm word, among people I'M
der middle age there has been a steady
decrease in the quantity of alcohol con
sumed and a steady and enormous
growth of total abstinence. Among
these the death rate has steadily and
markedly gone down during the whole
of the past half-century.
lon the other hand, since there has
been a vastly increased consumption
for the whole population, and since that
consumption can only have increased
among actual drinkers, and those are
persons at or above middle age, it foll
lows of necessity that they must have
been responsible for the whole of the
increased consumption. Corresponding
with this there is, as we have already
stated, a heightened death rate. The
conclusion of the whole argument il
that middle aged and old persons drink
much more alcohol than they used tc
drink, and die great deal faster in con-
sequence"
The London Times takes exception
to these conclusions, and in it's editorial
even the Hospital is not pre-
pared to accept the statements of its
contributor as absolutely without ques9
ton. 1t condones with the alcoholic !
evil, and says that the methods of life /
and the fact that the heaviest response!
bilities come to men in middle age
must be taken into account in the con-
of the death rate. 1t begs the I
question by asking: IF middle aged
men shorten their lives by drinking, /
why do they do it? And can we find any
means of lessening the worry and strain |
of modern life, and so of preventing
that depression OF spirit and impair. /
ment of mental power which makes men
feel a stimuIant to be an imperative /

If this season is not good
for the milIiners, the dress
makers or the man who
wears white clothes it's good
for the people in other lines.
And if it was pleasant
weather all the time, no rain,
no cool winds, nothing but
dust, the dealer in some lines
would have to close up
shop.
This is wire mat weather;
the sort that makes the man
who handles reliable steel
wire mats rejoice. Ours is
the mat and we are rejoicing.
First: because we were for
tunate in securing the best
steel mat manufactured, and
secondly: because it is just
the sort of weather that
makes a demand for the
goods.
This mat of ours will not
turn up on the edges and be-
come unsightly; it may be
stood on edge, folded up like
a paper basket, when the
veranda is being swept and
it will never wear out. Other
makes of mats will; they
have been tried here and
found wanting in many res
poets. The kind we have
will always hold their shape. |
Price less than the COM
non sort.

WHICH IS YOUR WAYP

The man who is satisfied to let
somebody else do the thinking for
him will read but one or two papers.
He will gulp down what the editor of
his party paper tells him, go to the
polls and vote the party ticket, and
then retire within himself, quite sure
that he has done his duty. But the
man who wants to know the sother
side" and to be able to make up his
mind for himself will not be content
with this plan, least of all during a
great political campaign like the
present. He will read Public Opin-
ion published at New York; get all
sides of every important public ques-
ton, political, social, religious, edu-
catlonal and others. And then he
will form his own conclusions and
act upon them. Specimen copy free.

Tho king won the Pool.

Paul Neumann, once attorney gen.
eral of the Hawaiian Islands, used
to be fond of telling anecdotes about
some of the royal games Of poker
A favorite tale referred to the peri
cd of the rebellion which came near
unseating the monarch, A big jack
pot was in progress when messen-
gers arrived with the information
that a riot was in progress. It was
decided to 60 home the moment the
pot was ended. As the king placed
his final bet on the board the report
of the guns was heard.
...s Run for your ives!'' cried Kala-
kaua. Out rushed the players, Kala-
kaua with them. About half way
home he made them stop and play
out the unfinished jack pot. And, do
you know, "said Mr.. Neumann, I'VE
were so nervous that the king ran
in the joker for an ace and scooped
the money with an alleged hand of
four aces. After the riot was over
we discovered the trick, but as he
had been loser all summer it was
hardly good form to say anything. :.

A Wellington Retort.

Z As the Duke of Wellington was
standing one day opposite his house
in Pioeadilly awaiting an opportuni-
ty to cross the street an entire stran-
ger to him offered his arm to the
duke to assist him in crossing. AL
though Wellington hated assistance
of any kind, he accepted the stran-
gers arm, and the latter, having Sc
cured passage by signing to the
drivers Of the vehicles to stop, con-
Quoted the great man in safety across
the street. II thank you, sir, said
the duke, releasing his arm and pro,
ceeding to his house door. But the
stranger, instead of moving off,
raised his hat and delivered himself
to the following effect, Your grace,
I have passed long and not un-
eventful life, but never did I hope
to reach the day when | might be
of the slightest assistance to the
greatest man that ever lived. =

They are equal to down and within

The autumn is the time when
every farmer who keeps sheep
should fix his flock for the next
year. This is done by culling out
every poor eve and replacing her
with a good one. Most focks me- d
considerable of this culling process,
as there are too many that do not
pay their way, thus taking all the
profit there is in the good ones.
Better pay a little more and have
a good flock, which will pay the
best in the end, and at the same
time be pleasure to look at, as
there is nothing on the farm more
pleasant to the eye than a nice flock
of sheep, and no greater eye-sore
than poor, scabby lot Of sheep.
When we count the difference
between a good ram and a poor
one, the price amounts to nothing;
as the offspring of the thorougbreds
will generally bring in the mrrket,
one dollar per head more than those
from the scrub, so the difference
is soon made up.
