FRIl? .4 Y MAY 7th. 1909 W. C. T. U. THE CRY OF THE TWO-THIRDS A little girl, a fair, wee winsome maiden had been born to the house of Droutly, Dorothea Adelaide Droutly they called her, for the two women whom John and Mauri- ce loved best,.their mothers. They called her familiarly by John's mother's name, "Dorothea," be- cause Maurice willed it so to please his brother. Well for baby's moth- er that sbn did not know how the man she adored spent the first night of his fatherhood. The gent- leman who hung for a moment above her so tenderly, so passion. ately, the next day had little like- ness to the one Dr John put to bed some limas before. Maurice was very mnoh ashamed when his mem- ory slowly brought back to him the folly of that night, and he has- tened to apologize to his brother for his condition. "I -was too dis- tracted John, to be fully responsib- le for what 1 was about. A man must do something at such a time, anything in fact that will helphin:i' to forget. 1 could not read, or sleep.. or work, thore was nothing I oval; do but drink, and I give Tad, word that I did not suspect deeply I was inibibing. In. am inclined to thank t not the quantity I dr anxiety I felt that ga'via, some -peculiar power ov- John was not easily deceivea,-n er did he allow his brother t•'y You are yielding steadily, day'bjr day; more and more to this fearful habit Maurice" he said earnestly. "Before long you will find yourself a slave, 1 have noticed with sorrow of late when diming with you that whore once a single glass sufficed you, now you drain two or three in succession and often more. If you do not get the best of this habit it is sure to get the best of you. It would be better for Helen to die than live the wife of a dishonored man ; better your babe had never been born than that it should live to blush for its father." "Come, Jack, that's ridiculous. It seems to me you're rather hard on a fellow. Helen has never been ashamed of me yet and.never will be, I dont drink more than other gentleman of your class, "Ain I a gentleman of your class?" the younger man laughed, you could not expect me to be as straight-faced as yourself on such matters, Jack" I }would be far from sorry if you were, was the earnest reply, "Nonsense, you make too much of a little thing, nobody expects you to drink, no- body asks you to get along well without stimulants—though I am far from thinking a glass now and again when you carne in wet, would do you no harm," or good either, said his brother, "chats a matter of opinion," was the smiling reply, "'But here ani I Jack, just the op- posite to yourself. Everybody ex- pects ane to take a glass and I should be considered a fool if I didn't, for me to give up drinking would be absurd and look as if I were afraid to trust myself, as if the habit was getting° the best of ane, while the fact is I haven't been drunk a dozen times in my life," "that's a dozen times too often, Maurice if yon are bound not to atop drinking altogether promise me now, for Helen's sake, if not my own, that you will never again drink more than one glass at one time" '-t caw, do it," "yes, you can I'd do more than that for you" really, Jack, you must not press hie, I hate to refuse you anything, but, this is a anattet on which 1 am very sensitive, I am jealous of my liberty here, and will do as I please Helen tried to interfere once, but she soon saw it would not do, I drive hard and generally drive the wrong way. "Did Ho1en try t drive your" quavered the doctor. stopped in :o minutes ih "Wellno that is hardly her way, strro with Dr. cx> s , Croup, Bernedy. One but sloe got some queer notions -in - test will surely prove. to her head and tried first to talk No vomiting no chs• WISP, A alts* a+lasewitifurvar--see, Druggists, and then to -look me out of my. liberty, X: invariably drank 'the more whel.i she did" "then my God forgive ;fou and pity her," said John solemnly as he turned on his heel and went out, "there, if that isn't just: like Jack" muttered Maurice, one moment von hang to him for your very life, certain he'll go under,huxaelf before he'll let you go ; the next he is offff and leav- es von to the devil with some such epeeoh as that to stick to you like a burr, but he needn't think I'm either to be talked or scared into any tetotalism, I've been foolish, that's a fact, and I'm sorry for it I mean to turn over a new leaf, but I'll do it 'myself, nobody shall make me" by which remark you will see at once .that Maurice Droutly had somewhere in his nature a remar k - able resemblance to a mule. It would seen' that the baby was a great attraction to her uncle, after her arrival he was a constant visit. or at his brother's house, morning, noon and night, at any hour he might happen in, and the habit grew upon ,him as the wee lady herself took on months and attrac- tiveness. Inrdeed the whole house- hold became the slave of nRaby Clovertop" as her papa dubbed lier Devoted. iianrrse and father and mother were most unmistakably to this child, he veriest slave after all was Ales:. nnole John. It was something- beautiful to see him, his grave handsome face lighted with pleasure ae he walked the nursery floor,, the.: wee bundle in his arms, singing a tender lullaby or tossing her to the ceiling, laughing aloud at'her delighted cooing. <To .be continued) Ethel M.
