ST. JOHN ADDRESSES UNCLE:IOE ON
ORPHANAGES.

Uncle Joe asks II il is moro charitable
to contribute to the orphanage at Nash
Vile than to the orphans OF Whitmell,
to which we reply, well, no, Uncle,
but there are people that wouldn't give
a copper to support poor little orphan
children or other unfortunate persons
that are cast upon the mercies Of cold
and cruel world IL it was not to be seen
of men and they were asked to contrib
ute by some d ID. in large congrega-
ton. 1t is amusing to SEQ how liberal
those pharisees are when in the pres
ence Of large congregation of people.
They are wonderfully liberal then. Al
ter the service should some little or
phan child in tattered garments clad
call upon them for help at their home
or place of business 90 per cent. OF these
characters would look upon them with
a scornful eye. We are aware thai such
people frequently have on hand ready
cash when they expect to be called up
on in public to give to benevolent pur-
poses. So did Judas carry the bag (St.
John IS, 80 & l2, g. but he was not as
rood as tho other disciples. We are
told in Mark II, Ala that Jesus once
sat over against the treasury and many
that we're rich cast in much and that a
certain poor widow came and threw in
two mites, which make farthing which
is a fourth OF penny. Jesus said she
cast more in than all they who cast in
to the treasury for all they did cast in
OF their abundance, but the poor widow
of her want did cast in all that she had
even all her living, From this exam
nile of thu widow we learn the sublime
fact that to give willingly, freely and
ungrudgingly to noble cause OF oul
want, that is when We actually neeC
what we contribute, is truly a vel
pleasing and acceptable sacrifice to Coo
and 1t shows the love that the contrib
utor has for Gods cause. How great Il
such love.
The reason why people are not bless
ed in giving is only because they give
like the rich that Jesus saw casting in
to the treasury of their abundance, no
of their want. Therefore what the
gave was truly not real sacrifice an
was not pleasing to God. "The sacri
iice OF the wicked is abomination, ho'
much more when he bringeth it with
wicked mind" Prov. 81, ~ Salvatio

THE ADVOCATES EPIGRAMS.

Never drink, never drunk.
Swim in sin, sink in sorrow.
Duties are ours, events are Gods.
There is no evil without a remedy.
Two glasses of beer are two too many
Look before you leap, the, ditch may
be deep.
Beer is never as fat as those who
drink it.
\ drunken night makes a cloudy
morning.
Saloons are toll-gates on the way to
perdition. -.
What soberness conceals drunken
ness reveals.
Wine smiles in the cup, but stings ia
the conscience.
Often drunk, never sober, falls like
leaves in October.
Drunkenness is midnight, moderation
is twilight, abstinence is daylight.

ALCOHOLIC sOMNAMBULIsM.
Peculiar Eject on Some People of In
diligence in Intoxicating
LiQuors.

DR.. Francotte, of Liege, has published
a carefully prepared paper, having spe-
cial reference to the medico-legal rela-
tions of the somnambulism which is
met with as result of alcoholism.
Somnambulism, regarded as the con-
dition in which, during loss of con-
sciousness, coordinated actions are car
ried out, of which there is no recollec-
ton afterward, is met with not only
in hysteria, epilepsy, and the hypnotic
state, but also as a result of alcoholic
indulgence. The author relates the fol-
lowing case of a man who was arrested
for disorderly conduct in public place.
He could not be induced to answer ques
tions or even to speak, and appeared
to be quite demented. There was no
sign of intoxication, but next morning
at the medical examination, he con-
fessed that at a place far distant from
that at which he had been arrested,
he had imbibed large quantity of alco-
.hol. He had completely lost recollec-
ton of what had occurred during the
next 4S hours. He confessed to other
eXcesses in alcohol, and there was
marked tremor of the hands and of the
tongue. A sister had been the subject
of mental disease The author, after
citing several examples, concludes that
there is species of alcoholic SOM
nambulisrn in which the patient be-
haves to all appearance in normal
ways but without consciousness, or at
least without having any recollection
of what he has done. In reality, how
ever, during such a time certain slight
peculiarities of conduct are present
which may, easily escape the observer.
The condition manifests itself only in
degenerate individuals, or at least in
those who have inherited some psychic
weakness, and as it is one which i'm :
plies the absence of responsibility, un-
less it is Intentionally induced, it is of
great medico-legal importance.-Neu-
rologisches Centralblatt..

Editorial Comment.

Tn cna sense of the word there
sae no political issues this year.
THE stupid result of the effort of
Judge Parker to give national
significance to the Democratic
platform by surreptitiousiy issu-
zug bogus and misleading tele-
gram to the St. Louis conven-
fiop, has sent what might have
been a promising boom, into per-
ax1anent retirement. The gold
STANDARD has been settled, 1t is
zno longer an issue. Yet no one
has come forward with anything
better. The Democrats are Try
ing to leave off favoring free sill
yer and att 'cking the supreme
court. Theoretically they want
s9lle tariff revised; practically they
are satisfied with things as they
are They can hardly ask US to
give up building the Panama
canal or to repeal the measure
that gave Cuba reciprocal trade
relations with ue, or 10 go back
TO an antiquated and ineffective
military system and a navy of
wooden tubs, or to stop try
Ing to give the country an hon
est and progressive admins
Aration. What then are the
Issues for the campaign of 1904?
There are none. The policy of
the government is fixed and ex-
perience has told US to leave it
;adone. What then is the presi-
dental election of 1904 to be
about? 1t is to be about Theo-
.dore Roosevelt and nothing else.
The voting population has but
one question to answer this year,
.and that question is, Do you
7Want Theodore Roosevelt as
president for four years more?
Mo matter who the Democratic
candidate may be or what he
may talk about, this one ques-
aHon states the issue. The re-
salt as the recent election in this
state indicates will be ga prairie

A storehouse was built for their ammu-
nision, stores. etc. !; small cabin for
Tousaint Chabonau. the Interpreter, and
his wife, "Sa a-ja-wea," and the re-
mainder OF the cabins were used as

structed strong blocka lie around the
clearing, gas protection against the
Indians.
The stockade enclosed something over
half acre of land, and stood on the high
land about two hundred yards back OF
the river; within and on the north side
of the inclo>ure was beautiful spring
which supplied the garrison with an
abundance of pure water. After the
fort was completed, number of men
were set to work to survey and open d
