THE MQUOR HABIT A VICE.
Tte Christian at Work, commenting noon '
the question, "Is Drunkenness Curable? ' as
recently discussed in the Korth American
Review, says;
'The liquor habit must be reiarJed, first
of all, as a vice, and not a disease, an 1
treated accordingly. Some era led iuto th
drinking habit, no doubt, largely through
the influence of an iuheritod appetite, Imt.m
the vast majority of cases, men form the
liquor habit just as they form any other bad
habit jnst as they learn to swenr, to garni le
and to steal, because their evil tendencies
lead them that way. Iu other words, most
men get drunk because they want to get
drunk. An attempt to cure intemperance
in general by the use of medicines would ba
very mnch like trying to euro profauity iu
the same wav."
BOTH A SI!f AND A DIS1CASB.
Drunheuness is both a sin and a disease.
It is a sin, to commence with, and after hav
ing passed through its first stages and fas
tened itself securely upon its victim, it be
comes b?th a sin and a disease. Alcohol Is
a distinct and certain poison, to declared by
many leading physicians and scientists.
When taken into the system regularly as a
beverage it iu numberless cases results in
drunkenness. Drunkenness comes from
drinking, aud the drunkard always com
mences as a moderate drinker. Drunkenness
is to bo treated both as a sin and as a disease.
The grace of God can save any drunkard
troni his sin, even to the "uttermost," and
multitudes have thus been saved. Medical
treatment has done much to save drunk
ards, and every effort in that direction
should tie joytully bailed by every true
friend of temperance, and due credit given
for all good accomplished. At the same
time, all moral and social means possible
should be put forward for the salvation of
the inebriate Xationul 2'empcranct Ad
vocate. "WIVE 13 A MOCKER.11
Thedriuk habit is often quickly and easily
formed. How Insidiously it grows upon
men. It steals in upon men as slyly as the
fox, and when it gets a man in iu full power
how it tossea him about like a strong lion.
We onoe read of a young rabbit that slipped
into a garden of cabbages. The garden was
inclosed with a wire fence. 1 he young rab
bit had a good and jolly time in that garden
as n. leasieuaany on iub luscious cajuuc.
tie bad heard of the danger of traps and wire
fences, but he did not seam to see any imme
diate danger around him, so he concluded to
remain all summer In that delightful place.
The more he ate of the cabbages tbe larger
ha grew. He never dreamed that he might
grow too large to got out through the hole he
be came in at. But that was just precisely
the danger that was soon to overtake him.
He fattened daily upon the delicious food.
He soon became as large as a grown rabbit,
but the only hole of escape didn't grow a bit
larger. One day be beard the foot fall of a
man corning iuto his garden, and he con
cluded he would slip out and disappear in
tbe bushy swamp. So he ran to the nolo he
came in at, and lo ! and behold, bis b-dy had
grown entirely too large to squeeze out
through it. Now what? Ah, he is so sur
rounded by the wire net as to fall au easy
pray to the owner of the garden. He was
caughtand killed.
The application to the dram drinker is
easy. Every dram he drinks is putting up
the wire fence of the confirmed habit of
drunkenness. His appetite is growing insen
sibly. Like the rabbit, he has a jolly time
for awhile an 1 see no signs of danger. After
a while something occurs which alarm; bim
atiout his safety. He resolves to get out of
his wire fence of dram drinkiug, but lo! he
finds that his liquor appetite has grown from
a babe to a giant, holdiug him firmly in the
grasp. This simple parable tells the story of
thousands who are to-day passive slaves to
the winecup. "Wine is a mocker" and a cun
ning deceiver.

A ()rft IHedlrlne Institution.
It Is not often that Tn TlDinas indulges
In a putT of any business enterprise, but In
this Instance we are induced to say a few
words In reference to the great growth of
the Dr. Kilmer Medicine Company at fllng
hamton, N. Y. From a small beginning
a dosen years ago the Dr. Kilmer Company
have grown to Immense proportions already.
Having only just completed a large flve
story addition to their factory the rapid
growth of their businesi domands still more
room, until another large addition
Is now being contemplated to their
enormous establishment. In addition to the
special pi actios of Dr. Kilmer himself, ex
tending Into several States, bis several
proprietory remedies have large sales and
enjoy great popularity all ovor the ooun
try. The justly celebrated kidney
remedy, known throughout the land as
Swamp-Root, has already reached the
largest sales of any kidney remedy In the
world. And what Is more this remedy has
acquired it popularity aud enormous sales,
not by great advertising, but mainly
through the reputation of the cures which
it has wrought. Testimonials as to Its
merits and the cures it has made have been
received by hundreds from every State in
tho Union. Where a remedy accomplishes
such cures as Swamp-Root has done incases
where they were even regarded as hopeless
it is a plea-tiro to refer to such facts In our
columns. Huffato Saturday Tidings.
Curious Kflocts of an Earthquake.
The recent earthquake in csntral and

Polpiiln Rancho of J. E. Poppo tho
ground was cracked and seamed in va
rious places. From these narrow open
ings in tho en r th largo quantities of
water of various temperatures have been
gushing forth ever since. In some places
the water is ico cold, while in others it
is warm, reaching a temperature of 100
degrees. The Polpulu Hanclio has always
bceu noted for its many springs, but the
recent enrthquako has opened up many
new ones, tome hot and some cold, and
caused the old ones to gush forth ten
times tho nmouut of their previous How.

On the Htiine farm of

is an artesian well which has always
given but a meager supply of water. It
was Grundluchs intention to resume

the shake has caused the well to send
forth a large supply of artesian water,
and the idea of having it sunk deeper
has been abandoned- On Captain Joje's

He Tills It by Their Heels.
A shoctnuker Rays, m toon as a roan
comes into my shop and taken off bis
Bhoes I can tell whether or not ho is a
good walker, and it is astonishiug to
find bow few men know tho proper way
to Btep out. If the shoo is worn down
at the heel, not on the side, but straight
back, aud leather of tho sole shows signs
of weakness at the ball of tho foot, a
little greater on the insido just bebw
tbe base of the great toe, I know that
tbe wearer is a good walker.
If, however, the beel is turned on one
side, or is worn evenly throughout and
the solo is worn most ucnr the toe, I
know that I have to deal with a poor
pedestrian. The reason of the difference
in position of the worn spots lies in the
the fact that tho poor walker walks
from bis knees and the good one from
bis hip.
Watch the passers-by on the street
and you will at once see (he difference.
Nine men out of ten will bend the knee
very considerably in walking, stepping
straight out with both hips on the - .e
line, and tho toe will be the rlrsY to
strike the ground. The tenth man will
bend his knee very little, just enough to
clear thegrouud, and will swing the leg
from the bin, very much as the arm is
swung from the shoulder and not from
the elbow.
By so doing ho calls upon the muscles
that arc strongest to bear tho struln,-and
iucrcases the length of his stride four to
six inches. The heel touches the ground
first and not the toe. A single spring is
given from the ball of tho loot on mak
ing another stride.
Men that walk, iu this fashion cover
the ground thirty per cent, faster with
the same exertion l in those that walk
from the knee. In pugilism the old rule
is to strike from the shoulder aud not
from the elbow. In pedustrianism it is
to walk from the hip aud not from the
knee. Ht. Lou it Globe-Democrat.
A Blueksiiuke Swallows a Rattler.

them came ruuuing back ,in a great
fright, saying that he saw a stinging
rattlesnake with tattlers ou his head aud
a horn on his tail, and one-half of the
snake was black and the other hulf
spotted. 1 weiu with thoin to see the
monster, and when we got there a
blucksnuk, about five feet long was
swallowing a ruttlesnake ubout two aud
a half feet long. The rattler was rat
tling with all bis might, while "his
colored brother was swiilowiiig with all
his power. We left them and went
back in about au hour, aud both were
dead. C'li'tvn (lain.) J Hint.

simple method: Wash thoroughly, but
gently, once or twice a day, with warm
water and castile soap, dry with a soft
cloth, and cover with a coating or tal

piece of linen or cotton, the tallow being
sufficiently thick to prevent the cloth

"August

There is a gcntie
Dyspepsia, man at Maldcn-ou-
the-Hudson, N. Y.,
named Captain A. G. Pareis, who
has written us a letter iu which it
is evident that he has made up his
miud concerning some things, and
this is what he says:
" I have used your preparation
called August Flower iu my family
for seven or eight years. It is con
stantly in my house, and we consider
it the best remedy for Indigestion,
and Constipation we
Indigestion, have ever used or
known. My wife is
troubled with Dyspepsia, and at
times suffers very much after eating.
The August Plower, however, re
lieves the difficulty. My .vife fre
quently says to me when I am going
to town, 'We are out
Constipation of August Flower,
and I think you had
better get another bottle.' I am also
troubled with Indigestion, and when
ever I am, I take one or two tea
spoonfuls before eating, for a day or
two, n-"l -'miVV is rfioved." 9
