And yet every new scientific study or alcohol helps to dem- onstrate more conclusively than ever that alcohol is a foe to work. Professor Emil Krapelin, of Munich I.Tniversity, has been making some remarkable ex- periments in this direction, using the ergograph. He first took a total ab- I stainer and measured his muscular effi- ciency ten thnes a day for some weeks. He then gave the man a glass of Bordeaux wine after each meal and proceeded with his measurements. In every case the worker showed a decline in efficiency varying between 7.6 and 8 per cent. After experimenting with a number of Germans the Professor tried the same experiment with men of other rales and under different climatic conditions with practically the same results. "He then proceeded to experiment as to the effect of alcohol upon the mental powers. He tested the ability of some accountants to add long columns of figures. They first worked without alcohol, and then each was given four cupfuls of claret a day. On the very first day their work fell off 3.1 per cent, and it steadily declined until at the end of two weeks the loss was 15 3 per cent. in daily efficiency. His ' next experi- ment was with printer compositors and one week of alcohol lessened their speed 9.6 per cent. "In all these eases there was no evi- dence of intoxication, and doubtless each man would have denied that his working effizenciency was impaired in the slightest degree, but the tests showed ott erwise." It is now pretty generally known that alcoholic liquors, even hi moderation lessen mascular and mental power, and a young man seeking a position is usu- ally asked two questions "Do you drink?"

But they apparently dare nct e„o it. There is a powerful element among their supporters that thoy dare not an- tagoniz9, or that they do not wish to antagonize. So they insist on making temperance Irgislat'on a party question and try to postpone reforms that the people demand. But neither Mr. Row- ell nor the Liberals should be blamed for a condition of affairs which they cannot prevent. The remedy for it lies with the Government.

The circumstances of the case do not authorize the statement that the advanced reforms advocated were adopted "more as a matter of pol- itics thereof principle." There has al- ways been an influential section of the Liberal party in favour of temperance. All restrictive legislation heretofore en- acted has come from the Liberal party.

'The scent is actually a part of the steel. The sword was incased in n wood sheath, which gave forth no oaor. The handle of the sword was of wood, which was easily removed and which gave no odor. The makers' names, father and son, were on the steel of the hnnille. "I entertained a group of Sheffield steel men at my home several years ago and just as a surprise for them I had the sword on the table. They were boasting about what great steelmult- ers they were, and then I asked them to smell the sword. They were the most surprised men you ever saw. " 'Steelmakers,' I said. 'There Is sotne real art in making steel; let us see you equal that.' They could not, of course.

John Paul Jones In a Fight Was as Quick as Chain Lightning. The exploits of John Paul Jones, the famous commodore, have for many years formed interesting reading for young and old students of history, and O volume issued by M. MacDermot Crawford, under the title "The Sailor Whom England Feared," adds much that is worthy cif note. The hero of the book is thus described in its pages:. "Though of low stature and slender build, his neck, arms and shoulders were those of a heavy set man. His neck was ant of proportidn to the rest of him. The strength of his arms and shoulders could scarcely be believed, and be had equal use of both hands, even to writing with tbe.left as well as the right hand. "He was past master in ,the art of 'boxing, and though there -were many hard nuts tq crack in the various crews he commanded, no one ever doubted that the commodore was the best man aboard. To all this he added a quick- ness of motion that cannot be des6Tib- ed except by saying that he was quick- er than chain lightning. When roused he would strike more blows and do more damage in a second than any oth- er man could do in a minute. "Even when calm and unruffled his gait and all his bodily motions were exactly like those of the panther - noiseless, sleek and the perfection of grace, yet always giving one the idea that it would be well to keep out of reach of his paws aud teeth." Her Club. Mrs. Subbubs had joined a club for the first time. Mrs. Townley asked her what the club was for, its aims and so on. "I really don't know," said Mrs. Sub- bubS. "You don't know?
