Eno,.ln Notional Temperance Ad­ vocate. TEMPERANCE STATISTICS. 'k I t The Erroneous Statements Made Concern­ ing the C ostof Liquors. Few are guiltless of unconscious ex­ aggeration. A good cause is damaged more by exaggeration in its support than by opposition. The simple truth alone is permanently helpful. Even. Temperance statistics are by no means always accurate. Figures, are often made to tell most damaging lies; ESveri contrasts, are frequently incorrect on both sides.' fiver since I first began to read Temperance’‘figures it has been stated that the country starves its clergy on 812,000,000 annually, while ■hundreds of millions are lavished on the saloon-keepers.. Yet the Methodist Episcopal church alone pays her min­ isters over 89,000,000 each;year. She supports about one-ninth o f the coun­ try’s clergy, and if others are as well paid the whole sum is over 880,000,000, In similar*'contrasts, $85,000,000 is often put down as tho cost of education. ‘ Yet the Commissioner of Education in the report of 1888 places the expenditure for public education at $122,500,000. I f we add to this the cost o f universities— $8,000,000— the cost o f private and parochial Schools, probably $5,006,000, as 500,000 pupils ore reported, and the expensesof commercialcolleges, schools' o f law, medicine, theology and of sec­ ondary instruction; we shall not fall below $150,006,000 asAmerica’s annual tuition-bill Again, some ot the best statistical ' writers Ex bread at $505,000,000 and ' ‘liquors at $900,000,000. This bread item is the wholesale value o f “ grist-mill products” given in the census of 1680. The some table reports the brewery and distillery prot ects at icss than $142,000,000. That the liquor output in­ creasesin cost vastly more between the producer and the consumer than the grist-mill product is acknowledged, but thegrist-mill product is by no means the Nation's bread b ill I f the fair val­ uation of labor, fuel and rent were addedthe bread of the people would be found to cost scarcely less than $1,000,- 500,000. Large additions must also be made to the wholesale figures o f the costof meat, cotton goods and shoes if quoted in the contrasts. Further is the common estimate of* $900,000,000as the Nation's ^liqtior b ill; reliable? Quite likely nearly that sumis ' paidffichyearto theliquordarterso f the country, It is absolute loss, more than loss—a damageto the consumers. Baths itsuchto theNation? Onehundredmill­ ion go into the GovernmentTreasury os internal revenue tax, and perhapsmore than half that sum is paid into mu­ nicipal treasuries as license fees. This moneycertainly is not lost to the Na­ tion. Nor does ths currency paid for drinksdrop out of circulation or suffer depreciation. It is there—all there— •adis just as useful as ever when re- tferned to legitimate channels o f busi­ ness, To this fa often addeda verylarge if unequal sum' for indirect oost o f the traffic. But what is lost? All the hurley, hops, com , strychnine, Indians eoculas and other ingredients Used in ttamanufacture we lost. The world iTceives no return for them. No health* strength or'warmth is secured hy the outlay. No compensation to the com­ munityby Increase o f assets is rendered hy the time o f brewers, distillers and Netiflers. The labor o f the army o f employes, saloon-keepers, clerks and ••trim is lost, The immense annual *•!•• of theplants, the store buildings, warns, railroad cars and varied proper- ■ iwftueedin tmahtaea, is wasted The r.A* trievablelo#Ms, could they be anew* teined, wouldequal the usual estimates o f the direct cost of the traffic can Scarcely be doubted, but that they can legitimately be added to the direct cost and then charged against the murder­ ous business, I doubt*. ’ Thereare many intricacies in this business, qnd ipi political economy may be all-wrong.! Others, better versed, may setme right., —Bev. Henry Column, in N. WV. Chris* tian Advocate, general brevities . A member of Vienna’s town council whena1 rise in.beer was reported want-, ed the city to erect a brewery “ to cedar to protect the people.” IT is not generally known that.under thehighlicense law o fNebraska, known as the Slocumb law, “ treating” is pro­ hibited. Section 82 spys: “ The person offering or accepting a treat is liable to a fine of.ten dollars or tefi days to jail.” T he Chicago litter Ocean estimates that, a saloon-keeper can live and even get rich if he has twenty irregular cus­ tomers." Of course, says the Boston Traveller, the list has to be recruited often, os when the, old customer gets to' be a bum his patronage is 1no longer profitable. It is then that the boys o f the family are gathered to. A n Irishman remarked about Scotch­ men to Ceylon: “They inever were at home hut when they were abroad;' and when they came but to Ceylon they ate and they drank, *and they drank, and they drank, and they died, and after that they had the audacity to write home and blame the climated’—Union Signal. T ub German spelling for beer is bier. In English a bier is a frame or carriage for conveying dead bodies to the grave* The step from, beer to the grave is very short. * * * In appearance the beer-drinker may be the picture o f health, but in reality he is most in­ capable o f resisting disease* . A slight injury, a severe cold, or a shock o f the body or mind will commonly provoke an acutedisease, endingtotally.—Scien­ tific American. A paper on heredity read at the an-' nual meeting of the American Social Science Association credited forty per cent, of drunkards directly to inebriate ancestry and twenty per cent, to in­ sane and mentally diseased parentage, so that sixty per cent, of all inebriates are “ launched toto existence freighte'4 with diseased tendencies and impulses which burst into activity from the slightest exciting causes.” .What a legacy for thorn than one-half of our children. i * A nother fond delusion hasbeenshat­ tered by thS,relbntless data oil science. Wbislcy had lopg he,en, regarded as o f value to the treatment of pneumonia, but a comparison o f the resultsattained to different hospitals by its use in this capacity shows that its employment is not desirable.

I f there is an evil that threatens the essential life o f the home, that tempts and rains fathers ahd mothers and sons and daughters, that turns away hearts from the Kingdom o f God, and so de­ stroys the conserving influence that communities and the Nation heed tai their highest vigor and noblest life, every man and woman who cares for home, who believes it to be o f God*# appointment, and essential to human progress and peace, must declare deter­ mined hostility, and give’ the evil no quarter, bringing every material and spiritual energy to itsdestruction. Such an evil is the dram-Shop system; such peril is imminent from the manufacture and sale and use o f intoxicating liquors. The distillery, the brewery* the dram­ shop, are continually threatening every home. I f they flourish then the home mutt languish; then Its industries are paralysed, its comforts diminished, it# affections die, its peace is lost.—Chris­ tian at Work, India** Are Not Drunkards. How common it hi to hear accountsof the Indian’s proverbial love for Whisky* While in fact there are very few Indi­ answho ever touch liquor, snd such as do indulge their appetite have learned its use fromthewhites.
