First a Medicine it Has Come to Do
Great Injury.
Statistics show that alcoholism in
France is steadily Increasing and
that the use of absinthe and of other
deleterious liquors is rapidly un-
dermining Frenchmen's constitu-
tions, and is one of the main fac-
tors in the decrease of the French
population every year.
A'bsinilie is prepared by pounding
the leaves and flowers of various
kinds of wormwood, the root of an-
gelica, sweet flagroot, Cretan rlit-
tany, star anise fruit and other
aromatics, and macerating them in
alcohol. The compound recur for
eigbt clays, and Is then distilled,
yielding an emerald -colored liquid,
to which a proesortion of oil—ell of
anise usually—is added. This is the
pure absinthe; but little of it is
now seed in France, for .the adul-
terations are innumerable.
In the adulterated drink the
green calor is produced by turmeric
and indigo ; hut blue vitriol (or, as
its tine n:: m,) t.:, euprie sulphate) is
often mice rte :t cvlUle:Lee ingredi-
ent. 1•c i:; im'xlasib,e to estimate
the amount of absinthe distilled
every year in France for home con-
sumption, but the amount import-
er from Switzerland (where a great
deal of absinthe is manufactured in
the canton of Neuchatel) has not
been less than three to four mil-
lion gallons every year, says the
London 111ttil.
I''irst a Medicine.
Oddly enough, absinthe first came
into use as a medicament. During the
war in Algiers; from. 1844 to 1847
the French soldiers were advised by
regimental doctors to mix a little
absinthe with their wine as a febri-
fuge. On their return to France they
brought the habit of absinthe drink-
ing with them, and tiie custom has
now become so widely disseminated
throughout all classes of society as
to leave become a grave national
evil.
It is the effect rather than the
taste of absinthe which is responsi-
ble for its high favor with the
French. Its taste is not nice, and
only the hardened absinthe drinkers
take it neat. The usual addendum is
either syrup (gomme as the French
call it), or loaf sugar, which is placed
upon a perforated spoon across tho
glass and melted slowly into the
drink by pouring water, drop by drop,
on to it.
Even with these additions absinthe
always has the medicinal taste of
cough mixture or paregorio, and It
leaves an after taste upon the tongue.
But its • effect is immediate, and
counteracts the disagreeable taste
entirely.

In the unaccustomed drinker, ab-
sinthe produces a feeling of strange
exaltation. The absinthe drinker,
after his first or second glass, if he
be a beginner, or if an inured con-
sumer, immediately after the absorp-
tion of his usual limit, displays great
brilliancy of thought, and for a time
is. to use the French expressions
"raised above himself."
,A.e with the use of most drugs,
he is compelled front time to time
to increase ids daily dose so as to
proluicc; this feeling, and tike in-
crea,se quickly upsets the action of
the digestive organs and destroys
the appetite. The habitual :absinthe
drinker, Who In France consumes as
mush as twenty doses every tiny,
never eats more than just sufficient
to ,gir.,•tairu `tiro, and acquires a great I
distaste for all but very dry and
non-fattening food. ,

Alt a ,trial in a German court a
man appeared as a witness. "Yoal•

calls o ybeli Fritz, but may be so, I
don't knew if it is Henric,h. You See,
Air. Judge, that mine moder she hal

was, me or mine (brader, w,ho got

know whether 1 ;em Fritz or Hen -
rick, and ,my moder she don't know."
Not Doing Anything.
Twenty years ago a discouraged
young doctor in one of our large
cities was visited by his father,
who came up from a rural district
to loop after his boy.
"Well, son," he •said, "how are
you getting along?"
"1'ul not getting along at all,"
was the answer. "I'm not doing a
tiling."
The old man's countenance fell,
but he spoke of courage and pati-
ence and perseverance. Later in
the day he went with his son to
the "Free Dispensary," where the
young man had an unsalaried .po-
sition.
The father sat by, a silent, but
intensely interested spectator,
while twenty-five poor unfortu—
nates received help. The doctor
forgot his visitor whale he bent his
skilled energies to his task; but
hn,rd•ly had 'the door closed on the
last patient when the old man
burst 'forth : "I thought you told
me 'that you were not doing any-
thing 1 Not doing anything! Why,
if I had helped twenty-five people
in a month as much as you have
in one morning I would thank God
that my life counted for some-
thing."
"There isn't any money In it,
though," exclaimed the son, sonle-
wiiat abashed.
"Money!" the old man shouted,
still scornfully. "What is money in
cotesparison with' being of use to
your fellow -man ? Never mind the
money; you go right along at this
work every day. I'll go back to the
farm, and gladly earn enough to
support you as long as I live."
"That speech," I said to a friend
of mine, one who had spent many
years as a conspicuously eueoays-
ful teacher, "went into the bones
of the young man's life, and
strengthened him for a life of un-
selfish usefulness."
"Air!" said the professor, " that
one speech was worth years of text-
book teaching 1 And yet it was;
made without an instant's prepara-
tion."
"Far from it," I answered, quick-
ly. "It had taken sixty years of
noble living, struggling against sin
r i d self, pressing forward in the
paths of righteousness, bearing the
cross, following hard after the Fer-
ree.' Man, to prepare that old
Christian to make his speech. Then
the moment came, ane he was ready
to teach' the glorious lesson."—Our

Sir George Birdwood has recently
told several stories to illustrate the
insuIttrity and uarrowness of his own

torelguers and foreign countries.
Staying with an English family in
France, he learned that their English
servant, though long resident there,
had picked up no French, but had
made the French servants speak Eng-
lish. When this was remarked .upon
by Sir George her reply was, "elaster
and misses may speak French !f they
like, nut 1 m not goin' to demean my -
sett by speakial' the langwidge of the
people we thrashed at Waterloo."
Shortly after, went on Sir George,

the Cceonial Off:ce asked after the
health of his son in Jerusalem.

reply.
