He stepped back and halloed:
"All ready, Sus?e Jane."
Susie Jane stood on the doorsteps.
She bent forward, stooped

for a sight of the needle's
eye.
"Now, I jest kin decern the

Willie, what is a 'plain
drunk!* 1 notice they are mentioned
in tbo newspapers almost
every day."
"A 'plain drunk,' Sallie, is the
name applied to a wnrkingman
when he is arrested foi over-indulgence
iu liquor."
"Why do you mention a workingtn&n!
Do the difference in men
make a difference in the stylo of
tbo offcuco?"
" Whv. SUIT- Sallifi- tnon of
/ i 7 , MfVM
style o1- wealth ouly become 'intoxicatod'
under like conditions,
or 'suffer from excessive indulgence
in alcoholic beverages.'
Thoro arc other difference, too."
"And what are they, Willie?"
"Why, the 'plain drunk' sleeps
in the lock-up over night, is tincd
f 2 and costs and his name is printed
iD the newspapers. The'intoxicated'
man gives a fictitious name,
leaves a few dollars for hist appearance,'
and some friend (perhaps
a policeman) sees that he
reaches home safely. " ? Canton

Winter coughs are apt to result
in consumption if neglected.
