"Within a week the coroner or Liver-
pool received over 900 letters from
fathers and mothers all over Eng
land asking fur a description of
that young man. How suggestive
Is this fact 1 What a story it tells of
homes desolated by strong drink !
A young man in Almanance
County, North Carolina, who had
been on a drunken debauch for some
days, wont home and turned leis
horn in his father's corn field.
His father . remonstrated with bine
and told him to get the horse and
feed him at the barn. The young
man became incensed, wenfinto the
house, procured his shot -gun, cud
abet his father through the heart,
killing him instantly. No wonder
so many people aro wautiug to drive
the groge shops out of the laud.
The Saloon must have boys, re: it
must slut up shop. Can't you fur
wish it one? It is a great factory

must close cat and it, operatives
must be thrown on a col.' work',
and the public revenue sill dwinvle.
°'Wanted -9,000,000 boys," is the
notice. One family cut of every
five must contributes boy to keep
up the supply. Will yon help?
Which of your boys will it be? The
Minotaur of Crete had t:1 I:avo a
trireme full of fair maidens each
years ; but the Minotaur of America
demands a city -fall of boys each
year. Are you a father? Have
you given your share to keep up the
supply fcr this great public institu-
tion that is helping to pay your
taxes and kindly electing pubite of-
:0631s
f-
fcials for you? Have you contri
buted a boy? If not, some other
family has had to give more than
its share.

11011 R1EDETTE'a ADVICE.
--
You s ay you demand a domestic,
useful woman as your wife. If that
is so, marry Nora Mulligan, your
laundress' daughter. Sho 'tours
cowhide Looe, i1, guiltless of cur -
sets, never had a sick day in her
life, and cooks, for a family of seven
children, her mother tend thrco
asOtiou men who board with her.
I don't think she mould. marry you,
'incense Von Reagan. the track -
walker, is her style of man.
.Lot ns examine into your qualifi-
cations as to model husband after
your own matrimonial ideas, my
boy. Cau you shoulder a barrel of
floor and carry it down cellar ? Can
you saw and split ten cords of
hickory wood in the fall so as to
have ready fuel all winter ? Cau
you epode up a half mere of ground
for a kitchen garden ? Do you know
what will take the limetaste out of
the eistern, and can yea patch the
little leak in the lritohen roof ? Can
you bring home a pane of glass and
a wad of putty and repair damages
in the eitting•room window ? Oan
you hang some cheap paper on the
kitchen ? Otto you fix the front
gate so it won't swag ? Can you do
anything about the hou:e that Cod
Reagan clan ?
My dear, dear boy, you see Nora
Mulligan wants it higher type of
true manhood You expect to hire
oxen to do all the mao's wont about
the house, but you want your wife
to do anything any woman cnn do.
Believe me my a in, that nine-teaths
of the girls who piry the piano al
sing so charmingly, whom you in
your limited knowledge set down as
mere butterflies of fashion, are be
ter fitted for wives than you are f
a husband. If you want to man
a first class cook and experienced
housekeeper do your courting in the
intelligence office.
But if you want a wife marry the
girl you love, with dimpled ban
and face like the sunlight, and h.
love will teach her all these thing
my boy, long before you have lean
ed one-half your own lesson. ---Bu
