know so well how to be?'
I have been very strong in my
denunciations of some things. 1
denounce a thing in proportion as
I see il is an evil, as I see it ruin
humanity. I denounce it in that
proporllOU. 1 li it v o said in till!
the devil is the mau who makes
whiskey. They are generous, you
•say. Well, they ought to be—
They will make a pauper nut of a
husband, widows out of wives,
and send a man to hell, and this
generous whiskey dealer will semi
his widow a sack of flour. Ain't
that generous? Ain’t that nice?
Don't you think it’s the kindest
thing you ever heard of iu your
life. They will take your mem
bers and debauch them aud damn
them and help pay you lu preach.
My God, what sort of kindness is
that?
Let me tell you another thing,
I have a good deal to say about
the fellow that drinks whiskey;
for the other fellows are rascals
while you are fools of the first wa
ter. Yes, you are. Aye, hear
that. I know what I am talking
about. I’ve been tliar. I know
what I'm talking about. Nobody
but a fool will touch it. No there’s
a bigger fool than that, and that’s
the woman who will stir a toddy
for her husband. (Laughter.)
Whenever you don’t like my
talk you can back out. A man is
a fool that drinks w hiskey. Yes,
lie is, too. In Gainesville, Ga., a
few weeks ago, the jailer walked
into the jail one morning and a
man woke up, and looking around,
said: “Where ain I?" “You are in
jail.” “What for?” “For murder.”
•Yes.” “Who have I killed?”—
-Your wife and sister.” “My
God! is that so? Tell them I don't
want a judge, don’t want a jury,
don't want a trial; take me out
and hang me to the first tree you
can find.”
It looks like a fellow is a fool
that will tamper with such stuff.—
Thing* are happening every day
iu Kentucky that is a demonstra
tion of the fact that a fellow who
drinks whiskey is a fool of the
first water. Yes, he is. I'll tell
you another thing. Nine-tenths
of the sin in Kentucky is made
by whiskey. Every one of your
gambling houses is founded on
your liars, all your licentiousness
floats u[ion the river that flows
from the worms of the still. With
the country debauched with whis
key, what do you? “Sin, sin.”
I never meet a staggering drunk-

as Stella had said, with the more liked the evening before. The in-

am glad it is not my Stella.’
Drusie laughed her light heart
cd, hird-like laugh.
‘And so am 1!’
That very evening. Haywood,
accompanied by his cousin, Mr.
Vane, made his appearance.
In liis genial society, stiffness
was a thing sot long to be harbor
