Abstemious Men.

The most successful thinkers are US
ually frugal in their habits of eating
and drinking, yet this is not always
true. as in the case of Dickens and
Bayard Taylor; but these men died
long before their time. Careful living
would, without doubt, have ena bled
them to extend their lives many years.
and to give much ripper productions to
the world.
Sir Isaac Newton was close student
and lived more than four score years.
He used 10 say thar he could not think
cleverly until more than five hours
elapsed after a meal. The most emf
nent men of our time are very careful
livers. People cannot eat their loaf
and keep il at the same time. They
cannot squander heir vital force in
high living and continue 10 give their
best effort to the world. A man ought
10 be able TO write his best after he is
20, for then he has had experience
enough 10 show him how to begin to
live. When we think of such men
as Humboldt, Longfellow and Whittier
doing their best work in the evening of
their lives, we feel conscious of lack
in the abridged existences of Dickens,
Poe and Byron. We feel satisfied when
men die of old age; but mourning mem
DRY fingers long at the grave of genius
cut down by dissipation before its
time.

IF man wants TO drink whisky,
that is his business" says the saloon
apologist.
Let's see. When Bob Poland and
Coon Parker were drinking in Hefin.
Ala. last Saturday night, and in their
spree ran a car of the Southern. rail-
road off the switch and out on the
main track down the grade, till it
stopped on high trestle, it became the
Southern railroads business.
And when a loaded freight train
came along and rushed into the car,
causing. a 100000 wreck. destroying
much valuable merchandise, it became
the business of a great many mer-
chants and shippers as well as the
railroad.
And when three dead bodies were dug
out from under the wreck it became
the business of some wives and or
phans.
And when the taxpayers are called
upon TO support the families whose
natural providers have thus been sud-
denly taken away, il will become the
business of several other people.
One mans drinking often becomes the
business of several hundreds or thou
sands of people. and the man who can
not perceive this fact ought TO be sent
at once to an institution for education
Of the feeble minded.

Kamas, Dec 1.-The town seems

raging. Men cannot make ma move until

The Ethics of A,nnsements.

DR.. Moxom, writing upon this sub
ject, lays down certain rules by which
we NAV test the character of amuse-
ment.
That which does not healthily divert
the mind and rest the body is not true
amusement.
That which is essentially evil is not
true amusement.
That Indulgence which is excessive.
and therefore in effect vicious. is not
true amusement
That which in itself is morally indif-
ferent and to others harmless. yet
harmful 10 you, is for you not d true
amusement. The harmfulness may lie
in the fact that because of peculiar
susceptibility on your part the amuse-
ment has the effect of lowering your
moral tone, wounding your spiritual
sensibility and hindering the develop
ment of your best life.

What Men Have Not Fought For.

My dear boy, men have fought, bled
and died, but not for beer. Arnold
Winkleried did not throw himself upon
the Austrian spears because he was
ordered to close his saloon at o'clock
William Tell did not hide the arrow
under MS vest to kill the tyrant be-
cause the edict had gone forth that the
free born Switzer should not drink a
key OF beer every Sunday. Freedom
did not shrek as Koscouszko fell over
WhiSkey barrel. Warren did not die
that beer might flow, as the brooks
murmur, seven days a week. Even the
battle of BrandSwine was not fought
that whisky might be free. No clause
in the declaration of independence de-
clares that a Sunday concert garden
with five brass horns and 100 kegs of
beer, is the inalienable right of free
people and the cornerstone of good
government.
Tea-mild. harmless, innocent tea
the mUch-Sneered-at temperance bev-
erage, the feeble drink of effeminate
men and good old women. Tea holds
a higher place, it fills a brighter, more
glorious page and is grander figure
in the history of this United States
than beer. Men liked tea, my boy,
but they hurled it into the sea in the
name of liberty. and they died rather
than drink it until they made it free.
1t. seems 10 be worth fighting for.
and the best men in the world fought
Tor it. The history of the United
States is incomplete with tea left out.
As well might the history emit Faneuil
Hall and Bunker's Hill as tea. But
there is no story of herosm or patriot
ism with rum for its hero.
The battles of this world. my son,
have been Cor grander things than
free whisky. The heroes who failed
in the struggles for rum fall shot in
the neck. and their martyrdom is
clouded by the haunting phantoms of
jimjams. Whisky makes men fight. il
is true. but they usually fight other
drunken men. The champion of beer
does not stand in the temple of fame;
he stands in the police court Honor
never had the delerium tremens. glory
does not wear red nose, and fame
blows horn but never takes one
