The beer or spirit drinker is wost to look with ill concealed contempt npon the simple water drinker, and as he tosses off the glass be has just paid his money for, he imagines he has swallow? ed something far better, and performed an action far more sensible. Yet if he could stop a moment to ask what he had jost taken he might think quite dif? ferently. Let us see. A barrel of beer contains about five hundred glasses. The seller gives about eight dollars for it, and sells it for five cents per glass, or twenty-five dollars. His profit is twOi hundred and fifteen per cent. The drinker drops in ten times per day and takes his glass of beer; io fifty days he has consumed thc five hundred glasses, *and paid-twenty five dollars therefor What has be swallowed? Scientific men say that in the five huudred glasses bf beer there were four hundred and sixty glasses of mere water, twenty-five glasses of pure alcohol, fifteen glasses of extracts and gums. So the beer drinker has paid twenty-three dollars for four hundred and sixty glasses of water, and impure at that, which he might have had at the nearest spring for nlthing, and pure as nature made gi. He had in addition twenty-five glasses of pure alcohol, which is a poi? son-at enmity with every function of the system, no food nor heat producer. And besides all this, he has taken fif? teen glasses of extract of malt, sugary critter, indigestible gums, etc. Surely there is no absurdity so ab? surd. To pay twenty-three dollars for four hundred and sixty glasses of im? pure water, when he could have it pure for nothing, and two dollars for forty glasses of poison and mostly indigesti? ble drags I But it pays the brewer and saloon keeper to sell water at two hun? dred and fifteen per cent, ; ivance on ali their trouble for barreling and bot? tling it.-Professor George E. Foster, M. P. The Two Men Inside. An Indian once asked a white mau to give him some tobacco for his pipe. The man gave bim a loose handful from his pocket. The next day bc came back and asked for the white man : *For/ said he, *I found a quarter of a doll ir among the tobacco.' *Why don't you keep it?' asked a bystander. *I've got a good man and a bad mai? here,' said the Indian, pointing to his breast; and the good man say, 'It is not mine ; give it back to the owner.' The bad man say, 'Never mind, you got it, and it is your own now.' Thc good man S3y. 'No, no ? you must not keep it.' So I don't know what to do, and I think to go to sleep, but the good and bad men keep talking all night, and trouble me : and now I bring the. money back I feel good.' Like the old Indian, we have alla good and a bad man within. The bad man is Temptation, the good man is Conscience, and they keep talking for and against many things that we do every day. Who wins ?' Stand up for duty ; down with sin. Wrestle with Temptation manfully. Never, never give up the war till you win.-Earl ?j Day*. Hating People. Hate not. It is not worth while. Your life is not long enough to make it pay to cherish ill will or hard thoughts towards any one. What if that man has cheated you or that woman played you false? What if this friend has for? saken you in your time of need, or that one having won your utmost confidence, your warmest love, has concluded that fae prefers to consider and treat you as a. stranger ? Let it all pa*s. What dif? ference will it make to you in a few years, when you go hence to the 'un? discovered country ?' All who treat you wrong now will be more sorry for it than you, even tn yoor deepest disap? pointment and grief, can be. A few more smiles, a few more tears, some pleasure, much pain, a little longer hurrying and worrying in the world, some hasty greetings and abrupt fare Wells, and life will be over, and the in laid away and ero long An Easy Place. A lad once stepped into our office in search of a situation. He was asked : *Are youliot now employed V 'Yes, sir.' 'Then why do you wish to change V 'O, I want an easier place.' We had not a place for bim. No one wants a boy or man who is seeking an easy place; yet. just here is the diffi? culty with thousands. They want easy work, and are afraid of earning more than their wages. They have st-ength enough to be out late at nights, to indulge in vices and habits which debilitate them ; they have strength enough to waste on ^viue or beer or tobacco, all cf which leave them weaker than before ; they have strength enough to run and leap and wrestle, but think they have not the strength to do hard work. Will the boys let us advise them ? Go in for the hard places ; bend your? selves to the task of showing how much you can do. Make yourself serviceable to your employer, at whatever cost of your own personal ease ; and if you do this be will soon find that he cannot spare you, and when you have learned how to do work you may be set to teach others, and so, when thc easy places are to be had they will be yours. Life is toilsome at best to mo=t of us, but the easy places are at the end, not at the beginning, of life's course. They arc to bc won, not accepted ; and a man who is bound to have an easy piase now may as well understand that the grave is about thc only easy place within the reach of lazy people.-The Little Christian. Mother Wit. A long list might be made of men .who haved owed their advancement in life to a smart answer given at thc right moment, (fee ef Napol.on's veterans, who survived his master many years, was wont to recount with groat glee how he had once picked up the emperor's cocked hat at a review, when the latter, not noticing tlat he was a private, said carelessly, 'Thank you, captain.' 'In what regiment, sire V instantly asked thc ready-witted soldier. Napoleon, perceiving his mis? take answered, with a smile, 'In.my guard, for I see you know how to be prompt.* The newly-m ade officer receiv? ed his commissi >n nest morning. A somewhat similar anecdote is related of Marshall Souvoroff, who, wheo receiv? ing^ dispatch from thc hands of a Ru sian sergeant who had greatly distin? guished himself on the Danube, at ! tempted to confuse the messenger by a j series of whimsical questions, but found him fully equal to the occasion. 'How many fish are there in the sea V asked ! Souvoroff. 'All- that are not caught yet,' was the auswer. 'How far is it to the moon V 'Two of your excellen? cy's forced marches.' 'What would you do if you saw your men'giving way in battle V 'I'd tell them, that there was a wagon-load of whisky just be? hind the enemy's line.' Baffled at all points the marshal ended with : 'What is the difference between your colonel and myself?' 'My colonel caunot make make me a lieutenant, but your excel? lency has only to say the word.' 'I say it now then,' answered Souvoroff, 'and a right good officer you'll be.' How Long. 'How long does it take to beconvert ? cd V said a young man to his father. ! 'How long.' asked his father, does it I take the judge to discharge the prisoner ! when the jury have brought him in 'not ! guilty?" j 'Only a minute.* . 'When a siuner is convinced that he i is a sinner and is sorry for it ; when he j desires forgiveness and deliverance j j from sin, and believes that Christ is ? ! able and willing to save him, he can be j converted as speedily as the prisoner j can be discharged by the judge. It i does not take God a long time to dis I charge a penitent soul from the con? demnation and power of sin.' - -. ? l i cw Forty Years Ago. Coffins were very plain and burial caskets were unknown. Tombstones had larger epitaphs and more verbosity engraved upon them. Eggs were a shilling a dozen and butter was considered high at eighteen ceDts per pound. Much of thc siivcr currency, fips, levies, and dollars was of Mexican and Spanish coinage. The country retail trade was much bater, as people could not so easily ruu to thc city by rail. There was York currency, eight shil? lings to thc dollar, and New England ? currency, six shillings to thc dollar, i The diet more subcharged with 1 grease, the winter breakfast usually be? ing made of salted ham and hot cakes. Diuucr was simply a hasty lunch at noon, and little importance was attach? ed to thc necessity for good digestion or a period of rest after eating.

Disease is an effect, cot a cause. Its origin is within : its manifestations without. Hence, to cure the the disease the cause must be re? moved, :iud in no other way can a cure ever be effected. WARNER'S SAFE KIDNEY AND LIVER CURE is established on just this principle. It realizes that 95 Per Cent. .jf all diseases arise from derange:! kidneys and liver, and it strikes at once at the root of the difficulty. The clements of which it is composed act directly upon these great organs, both as a food and restorer, and, by placing them in a healthy condition, drive disease and pain from the system. For the innumerable troubles caused by un? healthy Kidneys, Liver and Urinary Organs; for the disttessing Disorders of Women ; for Malaria, and for physical derangements gen? erally, this great remedy has no equal.
