BEES AND SOUND HEARTS. The "finest" lager beer made anywhere In the world is the Munich beer, of Germany. But now comes from Dr. Bollinger a very straugo statement. It is that there are tew adult ixr80!is in Munich with sound hearts and kidneys, and ho attributes it to Munich beer. It overloads the heart and the strain weakens it. It overtaxes the kidneys, and they are injured. Formerly the healthy pennants from the country came Into the city in numbers sufficient to keep up the stamina of the citizens, but now the beer is sent into the country aud the peasant population have weak hearts and kidnevs too. There is no remedy for this but total abstinence. 8o long as people believe in its harmlessnees they will use it. It seems an absolute ne cessity to spread a knowledge of Its effects, aud then if people go on using it they must suffer the consequences and can blame only themselves.

In respect to the attitude of the Church re lating to this Question, it would not be true to say that, as a body, the Clhuroh has sur rendered to the liquor oligarchy. It is true to say that it is so seriously crippled as to Iirevent any successful warfare. Let us. towever, be just; the Church is the greatest foe the liquor dealers face to-day; the deliv erances of its chief oounclls are strong and unequivocal; its ministry as a body is by no means tongue-tied or paralyzed, but its weakness lies in in want of unitv and in the application of practical remedies. When it attempts to marshal its forces to attack this greatest foe of society, these forces scatter; they have not yet leernedtheart of Christian soldiery, nor the full meaning of Christian citizenship. Practically the interests of the Kingdom yield totne demands of party. It Is much easier to pat into the ballot-box the printed party ballot than it is to put in the Sermon on the Mount, or even the resolutions passed by ecclesiastical oounoils. What is most wanted is a sturdier type of ChriMtiau men. We need Christian men with' Christian principles practioally applied. The Church aud its members individually must be raised to that high level. Bev 0. H. rayne, V. V. OENEBAL SCOTT AND TEHFEBANCE. General Keott was In command at Rock Island when the cholera broke out there, and, after various injunctions in his order as to sobriety and cleauliness, he added this curious paragraph, which wui recently print ed in the Magazine of American History: "In addition to the foregoing, the senior surgeon present recommends the use of flan nel underclothing, and woolen stockings; but the commanding general, who has seen much of disease, knows that it is intemper ance which, iu the present state of the at mosphere, generate and spreads the calam ity, and that when once spread, good and teinerate men aro likely to take Infection. "He therefore peremptorily command that every soldier or ranger who sliill be found dru..k or Bensihly intoxicated after the pub lication of this order be ocmjtelled, as soon as his strength will penult, to dig a grave at a suitable burying place, large enough for his own reception, us such grave cannot fail soon to be wauled for the drunken man himself or some druuken companion. This order is given as well to servo for the punishment of drunkenness as to spare good and temperate men the labor of digging graves for their wor. bless companions." MADAME FATTI ON ALCOHOLIC STIMULANTS. Madame I'attl has uttered some strong convictions on the effect of alooholto liquors on the human voice, hlie thinks anyone who aspires to sucoess as a vocalist should be a total abstuluer. Uhe says: "Alcoholic stimulants of any kind tend to irritate the throat, aud should be entirely abstained from. Eveu light wines are no exception to this rule. Mo.st people are familiar with the hoarse voice of the hard drinker, and it is often said of suh an individual that he bos burnt his throat with ilrink.

(From Iht Kfporlrr, Somrmet, A"y.1 Among the foot hills of the Cumberland Mountains, new the town of Flat Rock, Is the happy home of James JAVrherron. Four months ago the daughter of the family, a happy girl of sixteen, was stricken with fit, Vitus' dance. The lending physicians were consulted, but without avail. Nhegrew pale and thin under the terrible nervous strain and was fast losing her mental powers. In fact the thought of placing her In an asylum was seriously considered. Her ease has boon so widely taked about that the report of her enre was Ilk modernizing a miracle of old. To a reporter who visited tho home the mothor said : "Tee, the report of my daughter's si-kniw and cure are true as you hear them. Her af fliction grew Into St. Vitus' dance from an aggravated form ot weakness and nervous trouble peculiar to her sex. Every source of help was followed to tho end, but It seemed that physicians and medicine were power leas. Day by day she grew worse until wo despaired of her life. At times she almost went into convulsions. Rhe got to that wo had to watch her to keep her from wander ing away, and you can imaglue the core she was. "About this time, when our misery was greatest and all hope had lied, I read ot another cose, almost similar, that had boon cured by a medicine known aa Dr. Williams' Pink Fills. Almost in desperation I secured some of the pills and from that day on the wonderful work of restoration oommenoed; the nervousness left, her checks grew bright with the color of health, she gained flesh and grew strong both mentally and physically until to-day she is the very picture of good health and happiness. "It Is no wonder that I speak In glowing terms of Pink Pills to every ailing person I meet. They saved my daughter's life and I am grateful." The foregoing is but one of many wonder ful cures that have been credited to Dr. Will, lams' Pink Pills for Pale People. In many cases the reported cures have been investi gated by the leading newspapers and vti fled In every possible manner. Their fame has spread to the far ends of civilization and there is hardly a drug store la this country or abroad where they cannot be found. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People are now given to the public as an unfailing blood builder and nerve restorer, curing all forms of weakness arising from a watery condition of the blood or shattered nerves. The pills are sold by all dealers, or will be sent post paid on receipt of price (50 cents a box, or six boxes for J.SO they are never sold in bulk or by the 100) by addressing Dr. Williams' Mcdlcino Company, Scheneo tady, M. i.

The North American Commercial Company's schooner, 0. O. White will soon sail on a sea-otlor hunting expedition to Alaska. Klie carried twenty-llvn men, riflos and tho usual outfit of animal butchery in the north western waters, also four engineers for the steam lnunehes which the com pany uses in preference to the slow moving ennoes of the Indian hntiters who are supposed to do tho hunting; for the pelt of the excooding valuable sea-otter. The rovenno laws are most strin gent on the point that no white man shall kill or capture this animal in the waters of Boring Sea nnd along the Alaskan coast, but tho C. (1. White has signed the proscribed hunters here, who will reoeivo S".5i) for every skin they bring over the side of the schooner. Moreover, thoy are pro vided with a stock of new Winchester rifles, tho use of which will make the vessel liable to seizure, as only clubs, spears and shotgtina are to bo nsed by the Indians, who alone aro permitted to hunt. Tho sea-otter, like his brother the seal, is fast disappearing from the rocks, and coves of the northwestern coast before theceaxolcsa aud untiring quest of the white hunters. His valu able fur, which is worth from $1100 to 8300, and sometimes twice as much to the man who takes him in his native waters, makes lifo a constant burden and his fate from a rifle bullet almost inevitable. Unlike the curiosity-loving seal, who will stick np his foolish black head within a bunt's length from his poach ing foe, the sea-otter can only be caught by skillful and experienced hunters. Stnnt steam lannches and far swifter Winchester rifle balls are now taking tho place of tho crude ap pliances of the Indians. It is the intention of the Govern ment that tho sea-otter should be loft to the Indians, that this holplos people, often starving on their bleak wintry islands, might receive some re muneration from the valuable pelt. But the charitable design of the de partment will fail of realization. Hunt ing vessels clearing for the Alaskan coast make a pretense of employing native hunters and often carry two or three Indians among tho crew for tho edification of the revenue officers. So the sea-otter, like tho seal, is passing. A Tree That On us Land. Thore is a treo at Athens, On., which is a property holder.

We took onr places at a lnrge rectangular table, which was heaped with food of all kinds in brazen dishos of hemispheri cal shnpe. For the first conrse we hnd soup and mil, whioh is a kind of wine, nnd for the second the waiter handed around some of the other dishes which stood on the table. These contained meats of' various kinds, beof, pork and fried fish cut in thin slices. At this juncture there entered several Korean Ringing girls, clad in the gaudiest costumes,' and whose business it was to make themselves generally agreeable when at a banquet, for they constitute all the female so ciety that there ia in that oonntry. Thoir singing was not what an Ameri can would call good, nor waa thoir dancing, but their conversation and prescnoe certainly added a cost to the occasion. "Long us it is, a Korean banquet eventually comes to an end, and this one closed with a decoction of pear juice colored crimson and spiced with pine nuts. Thia we sipped at onr leisure, while the attendants lighted pipes for us. After watching the performances of the ainging girls, we snmmonod our chairs and were car rind to onr various homes, I at least feeling much wiser by having partici pated in one of the queer customs of queer people." New York Advertiser. The Delectable Grape Frnlt. That delectable and piquant fruit variously known aa the shaddock and the grape-fruit in this country, aa the pumeto in Chiua, and botanically aa the citrus deenmana, was first made known to Western palates by a oertain Captain Shaddock, who waa in the East Indian trade. Why the Florida fruit growers should have named it the grape-fruit is a mystery. These growers, though they Lava not in creased the size of the fruit, have im provod its quality, produciug a fruit of finer flavor and more juicy than the original. New York Tost.
