Dislike of amusements used to be
 more common among religious people than it is now. The action of a denounced dancing, card playing, theater going and the like without discrimination might once have been generally applauded instead of ridi- culed. The Methodist organization as whole holds to strict view of such matters theoretically; but the rule is constantly broken in practice. It is at least to be said for the Indiana Methodists that they are consistent.

WANSKUCK.
A Peculiar Malaria Cure--General
and Personal Notes.

There is good story going around
wansKuck about two well known young
men, who met with mishap Wednesday
evening. One of the men has been
troubled with the malaria for several days
and had imbibed rather freely of quinine
and whisky. "Wednesday afternoon he
bought pint of whisky ana placed IL
in the pantry for future use. In the
evening he met his friend. who COM
planned of not feeling well and thought
he was going to have an attack of
malaria "I'll get you something that
will fix you all right. ;" said the man who
mad the malaria and knew what 10 was
and how To cure Ii, and straiRhtway
made for the pantry.
He grabbed tho bottle and soon was Mt
his friends side who took long deep
draught of ITS contents. After no mad
satisfied his thirst he complained that
she saloonkeeper must have put winter
in it and he would bet dollar the whis-
XIV wasn't proof. Finally after taking
several more drinks they came to the con-
clusion that the whisky was of the poor
est quality and tho saloonkeeper must
have made IL himself lust as they do in
the drug stores, IA they expressed il, and
threw the bottle ana its contents up
against an clubhouse, smashing it.
After this they went home. The young
man with the malaria sat by the table
reading the evening paper wnen his
mother called his attention to his shirt
bosom which was bespattered with some
blue substance, and as he looked at IL "a
ueathiy pallor overspread his countenance
and ne came to tho conclusion that he
had been poisoned Doctor Sullivan was
called and applied the stomach pump
and soon the contents OF the young man $
stomach were in wash basin. Upon in.
vestigation it was found that the young
men had been drinking from pint bot
tie OF hlueing. which had boen placed
along with the bottle Of whisky and had
taken it by mistake. Both young men are
now out of danger, but they will be
more careful in future. People going to
work this morning wondered where that
large streak OF blue on that uuthouse
on Veazie street came from. When they
read this article they will become en-
lightened.
