An English®writer of some eminence
has recently propounded a theory about
drunkenness which has aliracted a good
deal of attention, He says tha alcohol is;
one of Nature's agencies to rid the world
ofipeople with disessed or enfeebled con.
stitution. No man or woman become a
drunkard, according to this view unless
there is some hidden vice of constitution
craveing an alcoholic stimulant, which is
Nature's prompting to get them out of the
world. In time. according to this author.
ity, these feeble people will be killed off,
and thus aleebol will prove a blessing in
perfecting the human race. Of course this
theory flies in the face of all experience.
We all know men and women who have
inherited splendid constitutions, who yet
through unhappy circumstances are now
the bottle. How many gifted
young men, because of thier social surroun
dings, have become infatuated with aleo:
bol in some of its many alluring forms?
Indeed, it is often the dull and unimagin.
stive person who ascapes the snare of the
rum demon, while the healthy, strong, and
exceptionally clever become its victims
A queer creature died recently in the
almsbouse in Philadelphia. who for
twenty-eight years was afllicted with a
mild torm of insanity. His chief delusion
was ‘hat ho was s beautiful young woman,
and that numberless suiters knelt at his
feet to sue for his love, Toe name of the
old man was John Talboy Binns; but
becaues of idiosynerecy, he was nicknamed
"Sally Binns,, When a young man he
was a member of an amateur dramaticsoci
ety, und he often played female parts with
acceptance, He was a very polished and
cultivated gentlemwsn then, and had =
taste for painting, drawing, embroidery
and other feminica arts, After he became
crazy, be made considerable money by
making lace and working slippers for vis
itors to the seylum Although nearly
seventy yours of age when he died, to the
very last he imagined bimself a pretty
young girl.
