ALCOHOL CAUSES GOUT.
Or all the articles of diet those
most likely to brln; on gout are al
coholic drinks of -.11 kinds, although
there are a low ..nut are really com
paratively lia"inless in this respect,
such as whisky and light Rhino
wines. It may bo noted in passing
that gout is comparatively uncom
mon in Scotland and the Rhino
provinces, where, respectively,
whisky and light hocks are popular
ly consumed in preference to heavy
malted liiiuors. The late Sir Al
fred Carroil, who was an acknow
ledged authority on gout, very
strongly expressed his opinion on
the part played by alcoholic drinks
in the production of gout in the
following terms: "There is no truth
in medicine better established than
the fact that the use of fermented
liquors is the most powerful of all
the predisposing causes of gout;
nay, so powerful that it may be a
question whether gout would over
have been known to mankind had
such beverages not boon Indulged

George S. Purdy was bom in the township of Paupack, this county, on
January 4, 1S31). His parents wore Abbot N. Purdy and Eliza, daughter
of Elder George Dobel, n Baptist minister, who emigrated from England
in ISIS and settled in the southern part of Wayne county then a wilder-'
ness.
Judge Purdy descended from a pioneer family In Wayne county, tills hav
ing been the ancestral home on his father's side for more than a century.
His great-grandfather, William Purdy, was a Baptist minister (whoso1
father was Peter Purdy), who emigrated from Fairfield county, Connecti
cut, and settled in Paupack township In 171)2. Solomon, a son of William
Purdy, married Mynis, a daughter of Francis Nicholson, who had been a
soldier in the Revolutionary war, and was one of the pioneers of Salem
township and their son, Abbot N., was tho father of Judge Purdy. The 1
i
Purdy family was of Norso origin. In 1G5G three brothers of this family!
came to America and settled In Vermont. From this point the family !
spread In various directions, some crossing tho state line into Connecticut, I
whence Rev. William Purdy emigrated to Pennsylvania. i
Abbot Purdy, father of tho Judge, was born in Paupack township in
1S0C. Ho was a man of strong moral and intellectual force, and of strict
integrity of character. Aside from such facilities as were afforded by the j
public schools, Judge Purdy's educational advantages were very limited j
and his acquisition of the practical part of the academic course of the 1
period was largely tho result of self culture. On reaching manhood ho
devoted much of his time, for four years, to teaching, and for tho latter
part of this period was principal of the graded school of Providence, now
a part of tho city of Scranton. Subsequently he was employed as book-1
keeper for the
ley. In 180G
held for ten years. Ho was admitted to the Bar May 1), 1873. in Septom-
her of tho same year lie was married to Agnes C. Addonis, stepdaughter of
lion. Otis Avery. Ho began active professional practice in lS7(j. As a,
lawyer he was methodical and far-sighted in tho preparation of ilia cases;
lucid, accurate, and comprehensive in their presentation; wary, vigilant,
and strenuous in their trial, and logical and practical in argument, lie
commanded tho respect of Bench and Bar and in a few years was reiog-'
lazed as one of tho leaden; of tho profession. In lSS;; he was nomiuateu
by tiie Wayne County Deinoi ratio convention for President Judge. The
Democrats of Pike county presented tho name of Hon. D. M. Van Aukeu 1
as their i aiulidato. The result was that Judge Henry Seeloy, tho Republican 1
nominee, was elected. In l.vj:i tho Democrats of Wayne and Pike county j
united in tho nomination of Judge Purdy and being endorsed by the Re
publicans lie was elected without opposition. At tho expiration of his j
term in 1003 he was again re-elected unanimously. Judge Purdy brought!
to tho discharge of his judicial duties the grasp of essential lacts, the
comprehensive knowledge of tho law, and the accurate perception of the j
governing principles In the case in hand, which distinguished him at the
Bar, accompanied with the impartiality, freedom from bias, and independ-j
once of action which aro reiognl.ed as indisponbible to tho due adininis-1
nation of Justice. As a result his decisions generally mark tho end of i
litigation as very seldom were his decision reversed by the higher courts.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.
Preserving: Small Peaches.
There aro many varieties of Hinnll
peaches which If the stones and
skins svere removed would leave very
little moat. Instead of going
through thin process, remove tho
skins svith boiling water. The svn
ter must be boiling and the poaches
should stand in the water until the
skins slip easily from the fruit. As
peaches darken quickly svhen peel
ed, pared or scalded in this man
ner, tho syrup should bo prepared
ready to receive thorn. Boll tho
syrup until It forms a thin molasses,
then put the fruit in and boll. As
soon as tho peaches can bo pierced
svith a fork they should bo re
moved, or they will burst and the
seeds conio out. Place them in the
jars svith a largo spoon and cover
with juice. An extra juice can ho
added to the next kettle of juice.
Those peaches, If properly pre
served, retain much of tho natural
fruit flavor. They ' can bo cooked
longer until the molasses forms a
thick syrup, but this makes a strong
fruit food. In making the syrup
use one quart of sugar to the same
amount of boiling svntcr.
