The gill, the pint cup. the i THE MULTIPLE MEASURE. ' ? . a quart cup, etc., are all lined up ready B for the use of the dealer iu disposing of his wares to his customers. ^ Aud what a wonderful lot of figur- g ing the unfortunate dealer ha6 te re- t soil to when he finds that somebody ^ wants a pint arid a pint and a half of j! his wares at the moment that the pint J cup has been mislaid and the gill has v been smashed shapeless under the heel J of a careless delivery clers. Now, then, he is offered b" a young c Inventor an affair that necessitates t his having but one measure, and that ? so constructed that a glance tells just c the amount of liquid it contains. e This multiple cup has within its b walls a spiral rood, to the top of which 8 is affixed a disc and a movable hand 0 Ac fhn linnul ricoc in VI aUUl\.(UVX. ?0 IUU MAJU4U *?WVV * > ?-i? cup a rotary motion is imparted to the <5 rod and as it revolves the hand indi* ; rates on the disc the amount of the contents, just as the hand on a cyclometer indicates the number of yards a bicycle or 'ttiotor carriage has traveled.

'he Pity ri??1 the Penalty of UrnnlHnnrii ?Tne Jovial uap roast* rate, wmje Crime and Disease Attend the Banquet ?Drinking a Sigu of Mental Weakness The drunkard is a burden to himself and o the community. How to lighten the ioad ,t both ends is the problem of the hour, ["he jovial cup toasts fate, while crime and lisease attend the banquet. The start and he finish involve only a question of time, still, there is enough of pi^re .-pity for the rictim to give humanitarianism a fair nance to do beneficent work. The latest evidence of proper influences n such direction ie offered in the recent eport of the State Commifeioner of Prising. The plea is very justly made for Teater discrimination in punishments not inly lor mere intoxication, but for crime lue to drink. The penalties inflicted are markedly unqual. The man of means who takes the irivilege of being "as drunk as a lord" lays the fine and suffers no inconvenience, chile the poor man, whether he pays or ;oes to prison, brings actual privation tfb lis family. This certainly should not be, .lthough the law as it stands can make no pecial distinctions to suit individual cases. The question of equity is, however, dealt rith from another point of view, which leserves due consideration. The commision claimB that the offense should not be reated as a crime, bi\t rather as a disease, ['he idea is by no means a novel one, but s widely entertained by the medical exlerts. The report 4.ruly says: '/Habitual IrUnkenness arises largely from mental veaitiiegs, unu ilb uetuiuaub buuuju paiake of the characteristics which the State ias deemed wise in other cases of mental berration." The man, also, who periodially indulges in his sprees ie virtually in he same category. Imprisonment or fine, ir both, does not cure either class of vicime, nor has any form of punishment for aere drunkenness any strictly deterrent ffect. On the contrary, the offenses gainst society are as constantly repeated .9 are those dependent upon more prolounced and more easily recognized forms f insanity. When crime is directly associated with Irink it must be proved that the criminal vas actually insane at the time the deed vas committed, and yet who could prove hat an intoxicated individual is in any ense a rational being? Tri^e, he should lot place himself in such a position, but, onritkring that he is suffering from mental veaknesst, is he not rather to be pitied as a ick man than blamed as an actual crimnal? In any event he should not be jailed vith thieves and murderers and be forced o consort with all other kinds of depraved nalefactore. The worst offense of drunkinness is on no such level. The commision very wisely suggests that some better nethod of dealing with these distressing ases should be ascertained and adopted. Much good could also be done in presenting drunkenness by educating the pubic concerning the purely physical penalties if drink. Suffice it to say in this connec,ion that no vital organ is exempt from its avages?kidney, brain, heart, liver, stomich and arteries all-suffer in the long run, tnd there is no disease, chronic or acute, hat does not owe its increased mortality ,o strong drink. Even the steady, meth)dical tippler, whose saturation limit ia lever reached, is in more danger in this regard than the reckless and periodical demuchee. No one, however, is ever an eximple to himself.?Editorial in the New fork Herald. Serious Joking, A writer in the British Journal of in>briety points the moral that the habit nost people have of treating drunkenness is a comic incident has much to do with naking the drunkard feel that Le is not tuch a bad man after all. The alleged unny columns of the newspapers, the perormances at our theatres, even our books eem with allusions to drink and drink:rs as something purely humorous. In the same way domestic friction, disrust and unfaithfulness are a chief atoc? n trade for the professional joker. Witn are exceDtions we keep jokes on such subects out of tbe Pathfinder, but our readng of hundreds of periodicals every-week shows us that a large percentage of "cur ent humor" finds its "point" in some alse relation between husband and wife.

When people are used to ;ecin<5 and hearing divorces constantly oked about, they in time actually come o regard the idea as nothing very serious, ind no wonder that with our proverbial rreverence for all things we have made iivorces so common in this country that he matter has assumed the importance if a distinct "evil." , "Anything for a laugh" is the watchrord of the professional wits, and nothing s too sacred for them to use as the butt or their maudlin ribaldry.
