the necessity, provided the necessity
exists, OF the brewer raising his prices
on the retailer, and the public would
not be a loser. The loss Of fifty cents
a barrel both to the brewer and the re-
taller would be infnitesimal, even in
the aggregate, and the arrangement,
one that has found favor in other
cities, would be, perhaps, more equi-
table than those already proposed. The
prominent brewer, whose remarks we
quoted moment ago, is perfectly cor
rect when ne asserts that were the
present beer tampered with it would
not be fit to drink. We beg to endorse
that opinion. Anyone in the least fa-
mlliar with the beers Of Europe must
have arrived at the conclusion that the
standard Of American beers is very
low, especially when the person famil-
lar takes into consideration the low
price and excellent quality of European
beers We are not forgetful of the diff
ference in the cost of brewing beer in
this country and brewing a similar
article in Europe-we are not forget
ful when we assert that it costs the
firm Of Messrs. Bass & Co. of Burton
on-Trent, as much, II not more, to brew
gallon Of its bitter ale-the best in
the world-as 1t does for an American
brewer to brew a gallon Of ''swipes.
And yet the English consumer is call
ed upon to pay only three or four cents
for a glass Of "the best in the world. {"
The secret of the tremendous success
Of Messrs. Bass & Co., the greatest
brewing firm in the world, is simplicity
itself. Ut laid, and it lies to-day, IN
the fact Of giving a good article for the
money. The Bass do not adulterate
or "rosin" their wares; If they did,
then those wares would not be found,
as they are found, in every known
civilized spot OF the world. Malt and
hops cost money in European coun-
tries. but European brewers are always
willing to purchase them for their own
and for their customers benefit. We are
reminded Of the characteristic remark
OF a newly-imported son OF Albion-"I
could get as drunk as a bloomin' lord
in the old country, you know, for a
bob" but / can't begin to lay the dust
| in nv throat for the. same money, you
know, in Ameriky." There was a vast
deal more truth than poetry in The
mans observation. He was, doubtless
qualified judge of the various grades
Of malt liquor, and perhaps his carry
ing-capacity OF the ambrosial liquid
was equal to 10000 horsepower.
Whatever arrangement may eventu.
lily be made between the brewer and
ae retailer, apropos Of the vexed 81 g
barrel tax on beer question, two condi.
tions are Indispensable to a satisfac'
tory adjustment, namely, that the pres
ent price-too high, at that-paid by
the consumer must not be raised mol
must the quality Of the beverage II

4 GEoRGLA ELECTION STORY.

One election story is that an timer
ant Georgia preacher, who had one
horse and a large family, was so CON
tident of Bryan's election that he said
to one of the members of his cOngrega-
ton:
Il don't bet, an l amt a-goin' ter
bet; but if anybody would jest make
believe that they wagered IL boss a e in

'All right, brother" said the mem
Der, well jest look at it in that light,
an if Mckinley is elected I'll have
two bosses an you none"
1t was "a 60" but the following
Sunday the congregation was amazed
to see the preacher tramping to town
where he arrived wayworn and mud
despatched, and mounting the plat
form straightway began preaching
about the evils Of betting.

this here congregation so lost ter right

from him, an make him walk TO glory

man is in the hearin' of my voice to-
day, let him tremble! He can't take
that election boss ter heaven with
him. If he could ride il plum into the
pearly gates the angel Gabriel would
holler Whoa an while the tremblin'
wretch dismounted he would hear
these words, like the knell o. doom

THE TRUE GENTLEMAN.

The true gentleman is above a low
thing. He cannot stoop to mean
fraud. lie lnVades no secrets in the
keeping OF another. He betrays no
secrets coniided to his own keeping.
He never struts III borrowed plumage
He never takes selfish advantage of
any man 5 mistake. He uses no igno-
bic weapons il controversy. He never
stabs il the dark. He is ashamed of
innuendOes. He is not one thing to a
man 5 face and another behind his
back. Ii by accident he comes into
possession Of his HeighbOrs' counsel,
he passes upon them an act of instant
oblivion. Papers not meant for his
eye, whether they tiut5er in ct his
window, or lie open before hi.l in an
unguarded exposure, are sacred to
him. He trespassess on 10 privacy of
Others, however sound the sentry
sleeps. Bolts and bars, locks and
keys, hedges and pickets, bonds and
securities, notice to rTespasserS, are
none of them for him. He may be
trusted himself out Of sight-near the
thinnest partition anywhere. He
buys no one, he sells none, he intri-
CUES for none. He would rather fail
of his rights than win them through
dishOnor. He will eat honest bread.
He tramples on no sensitive feeling.
He insults no man. If he have rebuke
for another, he is straightforward,
open and manly. From all profane
and wanton WorGs his lips are chas-
tened. or woman he speaks with de-
cency and respect. In short, what
ever he judges honorable he practices
toward every man.

Then Charlie noticed his own condi-

Then Charlie noticed his own condi-
ton and quickly fled without further
conversation. Miss Hamilton also
came 70 her senses and started for the
hotel without Il word.
She said nothing about her adven-
ture to the array of severe matrous
who lined the piazza as she approach
ed, and eating her supper as quickly
as possible, she joined the group,
which was busily discussing the pro-
paganda of their cause and the cam
pa!gu which was to be waged for the
emancipation of women. Somehow
the Old subject had lost some of its
SAVIOR to Miss Hamilton. She talked
less and seemed to have lost her ANNA
ton.
Charles Harris was also suffering in
different way.
I'VE are going to apply to the life
saving service, old man" said Reggie
Bowles, for situation here to rescue
pretty girls in the summer, but Pm
afraid you'll not be cap'en, Charlie.
Each one had little jihe until it
was too hot for Charlie. He went TO
his room and dressed for evening. 1t
was born in him that he owed Miss
Hamilton an apology. At all events
it made an excellent excuse.
As Charlie approached the hotel he
noticed Miss Hamilton, and he quietly
blamed himself when he saw her sur
roundings. Miss Hamilton also noticed
him. and her color deepened. 1t was
Just this moment that she began to
hate the cause
II beg pardon for intsrrupting." he
said, but | should like TO speak to
you, Miss Hamilton
The entire company rose as if gov
erned by the same impulse and de-
parted with elevated noses. Miss
Hamilton and Harris had the place to
themselves.
At the departure Miss Hamilton
found to her surprise that sha had ac-
tually accepted an invitation to visit
Sankaty light the next day.
When the two departed the next
morning, there was Il wave of dismay
in the camp of the woman suffragists.
ut is most disgraceful proceeding,
and she Is no longer respectable" de-
clared the leader of the crowd, and
her opinion was regarded as final.
Miss Hamilton was no longer troubled
by their society. Strangely enough
she was no longer concerned over the
degraded condition of woman.
When Miss Leila Hamilton returned
to the old office on State street, she
was discovered to be as charming and
girlish as ever, and it was also noticed
that certain callers whom she had
been wont to receive came no more.
1t was further chronicled that there
were other things about Miss Hamil-
ton which were new and strange
When the poAtmau came and letter
was handed to her-an event of three
or four times Week.-Mrs. Hamilton
would turn a little pale and quickly
hide ii in her waist.
\ month later these events had
their explanation when Miss Hamil-
ton came to the office with a sparkling
object on the engagement finger, and
her venerable senior partner received
her resignation to take effect soon.

REFLECTIONS OF 4 SI,INSTER.

The man who is good to his mother

Sympathy IS due 10 the horses of
the man whose wife is the boss of the
house. The horses take the pound
ing he longs to give his wife.
When a man gets beaten in politics
he is mad at his vile for not being to
blame for it.
Egotistical as men are, they are all
willing to admit that their wives can
beat them ut building the fire il the
morning..
If men would carry out tenth of
their marriage vows there would be
an immense increase in the feminine
smile crop.
Would man kiss his wife if she
chewed tobacco:
1t would scare some men to death
to bring in a scuttle Of coal fer their
wives.
When it comes TO shouldering the
blame Oh TO his wife, every man is a
genius.
Mothers should be admitted to
Heaven. and no questions asked.
Wouldn't it he fire if men would

wouldn't be necessary to die to find

POSER IN ARITHMETIC.

A Chinaman died leaving his pro
perty by will to his three sons as
follows:
ITO Fuen-huen, the Oldest, one-half
thereof; to Nupin, his second son,
one third thereof, and to Ding bat, the
Youngest, one-ninth thereof
When the property was inventoried
it was found to consist of nothing
more or less than seventeen elephants
and it puzzled these three heirs how
to divide the property according to
the terms of the will without chop
ping up seventeen elephants, and
thereby seriously impariDG their
value. Finally they applied to wise
neigbor, Suenpunk, for advice. Suen-
punk, had an elephant of his own.
He drove it into the yard with the
seventeen, and said: Now we will
suppose that your father left these
eighteen elephants: Fuen-huen, take
your half and depart" So Fuen-huen
took nine elephants and went his
way.
Now Nupin,' said the wise man,
take your third and CO. So Nupin
took six elephants and travelled.
Now, Ding bat" said the wise
man. take your ninth and be gone"
So Ding bat took two elephants and
vainoosed Then Suenpunk took his
own elephant and drove him home
again.
