TEMPERANCE

"DARE TO BE A DANIEL."

A Swertheart's Admonillan Saves Young Man In the Har uf sore Irmutation.

The son of a president of one of oni oldest and most prominent eastern enleges was abont leaving his native town for Paris to enter upon a spr. einl course in surgery. He had just attained his majority, aml the sim plicity and freshness of his boyhanil still lay upon his soul. Many of his comrades had gathered at the depot to wish him bon voyage, among whom was his sweetheart. The last good- bys had been uttered when, uhrying un impulse, she sprang to his side upon the platform, and bidding him holl his car to her lips, whispered: "( harley, dare to be a Daniel!" "(Inly that old saw," said he, while a look of disappointment shadowed his face.

"That only. Charley. but it may mean much to you." was her answer. The bearer of a letter of introdie- tion to a distinguished nobleman and Hirntist in Paris, the young Amer- ican was soon rrerived with marked kindness.

In a few days he was the recipient of an invitation to a small banquet at the count's residence, at which

"DARE TO BE A DANIEL."

were present some of the savants of the great city. I'maccustomed to the table etiquette of the cultured Paris- Jans, and "the cynosure of all eyes" when seated at the right hand of his host, Charles wss mentally disturbed. He soon noticed that before each platc were grouped fous wine glasses, the colors of which were respectively. ruby, purple, pale amher and white. In various decanters were wines of a corresponding hue, of which each guest indicated to the waiter his or her choice hy simply touching a glass. The white ones, alone, and those he- fore Charles were left undisturbed. During the progress of the feast the host, filling his ruby tinted glass (an example which his guests followed), proposed a toast, "To the wives, daughters and sweethearts of Amer- ica," to which be invited a response from his youthful guest, motioning a servant meanwhile to fill his glass with the red wine.

What followed can hest he told in the young man'a own words: "Moth- er (he wrote), for a moment I was in an agony of trepidation. 1 would rather have faced a cannon. All had risen and in the hand of each was the cup of wine which I had been pledged from my chidlhood not to 'touch. taste hor handle.' My head swam. Sudden- ly I heard the words: 'Dare to be a Daniel!' They shot through my brain like an electric flash./ Instantly my resolution wna taken. Touching my white glass, a servant filled it with water, Rising. I said as well ns I could for the great lump in my throat:

"'I heg leave to sny that to the typ- lenl wife, daughter and sweetheart of America the purity of this, nature'a own beverage, illustrates the lives they nim to lead and the dangers which they seek to avoid. Permit me to use it in their dear name,'

"Following the example of Count B,. every white glass was instantly raised and the toast drunk."-Temperance Cause.

A New Treatment.

Another mode of treating-the drink hahit is said to be in successful opera- tion in Paris, where three physiciane- Drs. Rapelier. Thehanet and Broca- announce that they have discovered a new serum, Of 57 cases treated 32 were tured and 15 were improved. only ten failing to show improvement. The se- 'nin is obtained from horses that have been Gosed with alcohol until their systems are drenched with the poison. When administered to patients the serum revives natural repugnance to alcohol. which continued use has broken down.

They Feel It. Disgrace.

The business of selling liquor in this country is looked down upon, and a stigma resta upon the man who is en- traged in the business. The degree of Wtigma may vary with the intelligence nf the community in which a person who Is u liquor dealer resides, but the loss of caste is clearly observable and you can't get away from it .- Liquor Trades Review.

No) Cause Known for the Act. A young man. 33 years of age, em ployed in & hardware store, who had been drinking frrely for some time pust. went into a hotel bar In an intox- lezted condition and that night shot higiself. A paper in its report of the affair ways: "No cause is known for the act."

"My dear madam, I assure you I apoli- gize for my mistake, but it really makes hut little difference whether it is 'Spare Weeks with Great Poets' or 'Half Hours with the Wits;' I am simply overloaded.

"Just a moment, if you please, sir." again interrupted the comely middle-aged wom- an, "until I endeavor to make it clear to you that I have no book whatsoever-" "Oh, it's not a hook, then?" said the real estate man, again glancing suspicious y at the small package carried hy his visitor.

The neat-looking middle-aged woman brought her parasol down on the real es- tate man's desk with a hang just at this moment, and when he looked up from his hlotting pad, upon which he had been mak. ing geometrical figures, she impaled him with her eye.

"Just he good enough to punish yourself hy remaining quiet long enough for me to state to you my errand here," she said. in a clear, distinct tone, never removing het eye from his.

It's Easy To Take

is exactly what they require ; it not only gives them the im- portant element (cod-liver oil) % in a palatable and easily di- gested form, but also the hypo- 4 phosphites which are so valua- ble in nervous disorders that usually accompany anæmia. SCOTT'S EMULSION is a fatty food that is more easily digested than any other form of fat. A certain amount of flesh is necessary for health. " You can get it in this way.

Broken Bric-A-Bracs.

Mr. Major, the famous cement man, of New York, explains some very intereat. ing facts about Major's cement. The multitudes who use this standard article know that it is mauy hinudred per cent. better than other cemeula for which similar claims are made, but a great many do not know why. 'The simple reason la that Mr. Major uses the best materials ever discovered and other man- ufacturers do not use them, because they are to expensive and do not allow large profits. Mr. Major tells us that one of tbe elements of his cement costs $3.75 a pound, and another cost $2.65 a gallon while a large share of the so called ce ments and liquid glne, upon the market are nothing more than 16 cent glue, di- solved in water or citric acid, and in some cases, altered slightly in color and odor by the addition of cheap and uselesa materials. Major's cement retails at fif- teen and twenty-five cents a hottle, and when a dealer tries to sell a substi tute you can depend upon it that his only object ia to make a larger profit. The profit ou Major's cement is as much as auy dealer ought to make on any ce- meut. And thia is doubly true in view of the fact that each dealer gets hia share of the benefit of Mr. Major's advertising which now amounts to $5000 a month, throughont the country. Estahllahed
