At school ho proforred books relating to water, When his teacher told him carth was composed of about three- fourths water and one-fourth land he liftod up his voice and wept because there was not more water. He always read the story of Noah with intense interest and was often heard to say that he wished he had lived in those delightful damp days. He fairly doted on ducks, and even in the depth of winter he would break holes in tho ice for the purposo of enabling the festive fowls to enjoy their usual natator- ial pleasures. During the hot summer weather he fairly llved in the river—in fact he be- came 8o addicted to swimming that his family physician feared he would die of water on the brain, Iu the town where he spent his boy- hood he was known as *‘Neptune,” on account of his fondness for the water. At the age of twelve he reached the height of his ambition by becoming the driver of the village sprinkling cart. It was while in the charge of this duty that he nearly submerged the town. He subsequently joined the fire depart- ment and was always one of the hardest and most eflicient workers at the pumps. He preached against the earthquake because of the first sylable in the word rumbling. He denounced whisk brooms because they reminded him of corn juice. He had a similar objection to branding irons. He would not fight because he would have to give and take a punch or a smash, After a fow years he was appointed to the position of superintendent of the water works from which the village re- received its supply. His house was adorned with mottoes of various descriptions, all more or less relating to the subject which was nearest and dearest to him. In his dining-room over the mantel was suspended the motto: ““‘Water is the best of all things,” On his well curb is the sign: *“‘Water tastes better out of a wooden gmcket than wine out of a golden gob- et.” He is fond of giving conundrums to his friends, such as: ““Why is a politician’s tongue like a that the IPTEMBER 2 1884. In somo states to affect seriously the for tunes of the candldates of the two great parties. In & large number of the states, too, the anti-liquor sentiment |grows stronger and stronger, and the disposition to resort to coercive measures against the drinker more decided. In sev oral of the southern states, in which par tinlity for whisky has perhaps boon stronger than in any other part of the world, localities are permitted to exer. o their option in the matter of permit their ting any drinkin all within limits The disposition to legislate liguor on the part of communiti all, howover, not so important as at A the readiness on the part of individuals to stop drinking, and about this the infor mation weo possess is vory imporfeot. Thero has been in England, as far as can bo ascertained from the revenue returns, a considerable falling off ini the consump tion of spirits, but the sale of beer ap- pears to be as groat as ever, and that of wine groater. In this country the consumption of both boor and spirits increases, and what is perhaps of moro importance just brook?” Then before they could an- swer he would reply: “‘Because it runs without ceasing and never wearies,” Although he has filled the gubernato- rial chair of a great western state, it is llfulmvud that he was never fully him- self. Yet it is darkly rumored that his chances of becoming president are to be blighted because he has refused to _settle an old bar bill, which he contracted some time ago in a fit of absent-mindedness. His particular pet is an enormous mus- tache, which waves over his shoulders like a pair of suspenders. Its natural color is red, but his eremies solemnly state that ho gives it the som- bre shade of a raven's wing. Ii that be true, he is the only candi- date who has ever dyed for his country without shedding blood. He is a good man, but his weight Is not known, At present his campaign is conducted now than any othor fact, there does not appeer to be any fixed and certain con- nootion between prohibition and con- sumption, In other words, as far as can be ascertained, drinking does not by any means coase in states in which it ls unlawful. In fact, in Maine It appoears to have been very great in spite of the law, although, doubtless, anti-llquor leg- islation must alwaya restrict drinking and make it more or loss disreputablo. 1t 18 still harder to decide how the dis- cussion stands on tho question of the ef- feots of aleoholic drinks on health. It nover raged o fiercely as it does at this moment, and the doctors nover took so prominent a part in it. A general agroo- ment has undoubtedly been reached that the consumption of aleoholic drinks to oxcess is Injurious, and that it is always uncertain whether a man who uses them at all will not end by using them in ex- cess. But what is excess 1s still an un- settled problem. The testimony of indi- viduals on this point is still infinito in its variety, and 80 is tho testimony of doc- tors. Nor is thero as yet any- thing liko a general agreement oven among scientific men as to what the precise effects of alcohol on the human frame are. The ono thing about alcohol which seems to bo settled is that 1t is the most potent, direct cause, in our time, among northern nations at least, of poverty, crime and disoase. The mor- al question which this fact at once starts, whother people who can drink in moder. ation are bound to give up drin: for the sake of those who cannot drink in moderation, or, in other words, how far ench man 18 bound to regulate his own life in thing, indifferent, for the sake of sotting an example to others, is one of the questions, unfortunately; on which it is not possible to throw much light by experiment, Nobody can tell what the direct eflects of his example are. in matters which arenot wrong in themselves, or only wrong in their posst ble consequences, even on his own chil- dren. No man can make suro that by excluding wine from hia table he will save his sons from becoming drunkards, or oven convince them that they cannot drink with safety, Most of the drinking in America is done in places,'n which no- body can set a good examplo at all, and very little of it in places in which total abstainers can exhibit their abstinence. But it may bo asserted as absolutely cer- tain that throughout the civilized world doubts as to the value of alcholic drinks grow stronger, and so do the digposition to put legislatlve restrictions on their use, and the so- cial ~ disrepute attending their use, except with one’s meals, as an aid to di- gestion. By the end of the century we shall probably witness a very decided change in the opinion of the civilized world on the whole matter. On the Eu- ropean continent, where until very re- ceatly the temperance agitation was all but incomprehensible, the growing use of ardent spirits in place of beer and light wines, has made a strong im_ression on statesmen and philanthropists, In both Franco and Switzerland the reports on this subject are alarming and indicate the need of very decided restraints of some kind, if on no other ground, out of rogard for the public health. e Dr. Pierce’s Compound Ixtract of Smari-Weed combines KFrench Brandy, Jamaica Ginger, Smart-Weed and Cam- phor Water the best possible agents for the cure ot diarrhaa, cholors morbus, dysentory or bloody flux and colic, or to break up colds, fovers and inflammatory without spirit, The result is already an established fact.

WitLiams & Co, Nebraska City, Nob. — The Temperance Cause, 827-1m New York Evening Post. The founder of the temperance move- ment in England, Mr. Joseph Livesey, died a few weeks ago at the ripe age of ninety-three, after a lifo devoted, from firat to last, to philanthropy in the Targest and best sense of the word. He was, 1| however, in point of time, much behind the advocates of temperance in this coun- try, who first bogan to show themselves in Now England in the last quarter of the last century, and have eyer since played a part for which the history of the reform in England offers no parallel, But it is to be observed that fow if any of the early temperance men here preached total abstinence What they dexmunct d was theconsumptionof distilled Bpi Poward the product of the brew- ery A (TR O RERR S pross they were long very tolerant. 1t is only with- n our own time that every species of in- toxicating drink has come under the ban, and that the great discussion which is now carried on with more or less fervor in every civilized country over the effects of alcohol on the human frame has begun to be heard, The beer and wine drink- ers are no longer secure from attack, They are now pursued by the prohibition- ists with as much vigor as the whisky and wine drinkers of sixty years ago were pursued by the advocates of simple tumpenuu,u or morning abstinence, his year we are undoubtedly witness- ing & more advanced -Luuu of the war against *‘the liquor traffic” than ever be- fore, The prohibitionists have secured the embodiment of their theory into the constitution of the state of Maine after a prolonged experience of the working of & simplo probibitory iaw.
