| A DREAM.
/ had dream. say dream.
Yet scarce a dream was mine;
Methought saw Intemperance
Before the judgment shrine.
His form was giant in its size.
Was giant in its strength;
His boldness filed new ith surprise,
He stood in self defense.
Methought did not see him Vince,
Nor show the least appall.
But with look that haunts me still,
He viewed the Judgment hall.
Then answering said "I've thought
of this,
But here my papers are;
They're from thy children while on
earth,
I bring them to the Bar.
The papers they were handed in,
trembled when / saw.
In lines of black their right to sin
Was headed LICENSE LAW!
This license was moneyed plan,
By which the right was sold,
OF robbing, cursing, killing men.
By paying SO much gold.
For SO much gold we license thee,
To ruin, kill, destroy,
To drive from home its brightest
gems,
And drown each cup of joy;
To excite men to deeds of strife.
To cruel words and blows; !
To decrease all the joys Of life.
And increase all its woes.
For 30 much gold we license thee.
To fill the drunkard's bowls,
And trust upon society,
Those desecrated holes,
Those dens of gambling, drinking,
wrong,
Those dens of dark repute.
Where vice, with bacchanalian song,
Sinks man below the brute.
For so much gold we license thee.
Our poorhouse rooms to fill,
And many a helpless orphan curse,
And many mother kill.
And many brother stain with crime,
And many sister moan.
And many a father sit and pine'
In dungeon cell alone.
For so much gold We'll stand between

Dispenser of Kisses.

A Frenchman. who apparently has been amusing himself by reckoning up the number of kisses he has given his wife during the first 20 years of his married life.
 He finds that in the first year he dispensed about 100 kisses a day, or. say. allowing for birthdays and legal and church holidays, about 36700 in the year.
 In the second year this number was reduced by half, and in the third year to ten day. while in the fifth year his better half had to be content with two a day, one in the morning and one in the evening.
 What happened after the fifth year Is wrapped in mystery" but at the same rate of progression" he prob ably arrived eventually at one kiss on the first of January every leap year, Chicago American.

BAD ITCHING HUMOR.

Some two months ago I had a hu. nor break out on my limbs below my knees. They came to look like raw beefsteak, all red, and no one knows how they itched and burned They were so swollen that I could not get my shoes on for a week or more. I used five or six different remedies and got no help, only when applying them the burning was worse and the itching less. For two or three weeks the sui fering was intense and during that time 1 did not sleep an hour at a time. Then one morning I tried a bit of Cuticura. From the moment it touched me the itching was gone and I have not felt bit of it since The swelling went down and in two days had my shoes on and was about as usual George B.
