Without in any way questioning ?h- Justice or durability of Nation Wido prohibition, we may risk onr elves if the enforced retrain put upon our .stomachs will operate up on our minds to such a ? as to render the mere thought of con viviality, uncongenial? Will w; gratefully, or rebellious!-, accept a 'dry' era in poetry and fiction? Will our royeato imaginations, which formerly kindled kindly to such line as KVat'?. "Oh for a draft of vintage that has Leen Cooled a Ion? age in the d ep delved earth." respond as generously to sufrgeu tloni of the soda-water font and tho more or les pellucid ilagon of gin ger pop? If so. a!1 Is well. P,ut if not so. then I venture to say that we would do well to pause hefore taking from our shelves for perusal, aftT the br?t of July next, any of the works .f Ikkens, Thackery, Hcott, not to peak of innumerable earlier writers. A glance at random turned upon th. pages of thfno books any orv f them may excite a train of thought a- uncomplimentary t". a it is unavailing againt existing on dltions. We need not declare posi tively that it will arouse a vain thirst, but wo may be quite sure if any thirst results, It will not be for sarsaparilla, nor chocolate nundaes. We enter at a venture Mr. I)ick !! "Old Curiosity Shop." Heboid at once Mr. Swiveller "cheered by the speedy arrival of a email p-wter pyramid curiously constructed of boiled-beef plates formed the bas and a foaming quart-pot the paex." I oes our Imagination fill that quart pot with root-beer? I think not. Wo And ourselves assist im; at the il fresco meal whereat Samuel Wfl'er described tho excellence of "weal-pies" when one "is eure they ain't kittens," and we behold the amiable and law-abiding Mr. Pici wick thoroughly enjoying himself. "Well, that certainly is capital cold punch," flald Piciwlck looking con tentedly at the stone bottle, "and the day is extremely warm-" He thn took another to ee if there was any orange peel in the punch, because orange peel always dis agreed with him." Possibly some ne'er-do-well Imag ination will Insist on supplying the flavor other than that of orange, which Mr. riciwick found "capital" in his'jmnch. For goodness sake Kt us hurry past that page in Pnrnahy Uudge which describes Rood Joe Willet de clining to taste "more than three ,'Itssps of old sherry, to tho un bounded astonishment of the purple-faced Vinter." Nor would it perhaps be wisr to dwell too long on another page of the same novel, which provokingly relates how "Lord George, and his secretary, with slippereil feet .mil legs stretch ed out before the fire, sat over some BREAK ft CHILD'S SYRUP OF FIGS Cleanses the little liver and bowels and they get well quick. When your child suffers from a cold don't wait; give the little stom ach, liver and bowels a gentle, thor ough cleansing at once. When cross, peevish, listless, pale, doesn't sleep, eat or act naturally; if breath is bad, stomach sour, give a teaspoon fuj of "California Syrup of Fi.g" and in a few hours all the clogged-up, constipated waste, sour bile and un digested food vill gently move out of the bowels, and you have a well, playful child npain. If your child coughs, snuffles and has cautht cold or is feverish or has a sore throat give a good lose of "California Syrup of Figs", to evacuate the bowels, no difference what other treatment is given. S!ck children needn't I e coaxed to take this harmless "fruit laxative." Millions of mothers keep. It handy because they know its action on the stomach, liver and bowels is prompt and eure. They abo know a little given today saves a sick child to morrow.

Put your aggravating Dickens back on the shelf, and take down a copy of Thackery. It Is "The Ad enturess of Philip," and the des picable Mr. Twysden Is taking. He's a cont-mptable person, that's true, but nevertheless what he Is saying 1(hh sound a little bit attractive, namely: "A plain, quiet dinner, a clear soup, a . bit of fish, a couple of little entries, a nice turtle roast, we'll taste that claret of mine not expensive, but it has a bouquet and pureness of Its own." And here is dear, old Philip him self speaking ('though not to us prohibitionists): "You can ge a famous linner there for a shilling beef, bread potatoes, beer, and a penny for the waiter." Of course Fueh frugality would not do for Tom Sargent in "The Xewcomhs." who, "ringing the bell bad lletsy bring him up another glass of rum and water, and one for Mr. IeSbrough to he charged to him." Ioubtlos.s Tom Sarscnt and Chev alier Strong, of "Pendennis" history, who said haughtily, "send me up a cutlet and a bottle of claret to my room," ould have managed to-pet along with a pitcher of lemonade, but Mr. Thackery who was a might good Judge of human nature, didn't appear to think so. We need not, however, scrutinize Thackery's characters, to discover his views in regard to suitable re freshment; he sets them down bold ly in the following verse: IIut a plain leg of mutton, my Lucy I prithee get ready at three. Have it smoking, and tender and juicy. And what better meat can there be? And when it has feasted the mas ter. 'Twill amply suffice for the maid, Meanwhile I will smoke my canas ter. And tipple my ale In the shade." Return to your shelf, thou great contemplator of gustatory human ity, and let us peep into one of the works of a novelist who ceased to be a man, in the same year you ob tained your majority. The book chances to be the "nride of Lam memoor." Will Walter Scott po litely hand us a glasa of ice water? Listen: "Craigie." said the Iord of the Manor, "do you pray step down to the cellar and fetch us up a bottle of Hurgundy, 1678 it is in tin fourth bin from tho right hand turn and. I nay, Cralsie. you might fetch up half a dozen while you are about it." BERRIEN SPRINGS, MICH. Berrien Springs, Mich., Jan. 9. Mr. and Mrs. G. A.
