How Sad. “There are men who take a part lar, 1 might almost say a malic delight in getting men drunk,” s; gentleman to a Times reportei ml, morning. “I never helped to get bu one man intoxicated, and I shall re ■ gret my part in that disgraceful act ti my last day,” “Why so?” inquired a friend, j “In the first place, because of .the ruin it wrought; in the second pi' because of its contemptible meant It was this way: A friend of mi a young a an of great piomise, 1 giving up drinking, which was fu "recking the hgpes his friends had felt for his future, in order to set down in business and prepare for rna riage. He abstained from liquor fc nearly a year, and then satisfied that lie had reformed, the young woman he loved became his wife. I was present at the wedding and I nan truthfully say that I never saw ah hiever expect to see a happier couple cJ^'oue that be gau married life under (.fighter au spices. IIis business was tlourisbiuv : and they took possession of a beautiful; little home at once. All went well for i several weeks, One night I, and a number of others, met him on Brough tm street. We w'ero in a particularly good humor—in fact we had drank just enough to make us fell jolly. He refused persistently to take anytbim for awhile but at last yielded to o f continued solicitations. At first called for sarsaparilla. We laugh at t. at aud when the whisky w handed down poured him out a goo drink. lie fumbled with the glass fc awhile hut his courage gave way be fore our sneering witticisms and ho drank it down. Then he tried to break away We were in for a night ot fun, though, and didn’t propose O Glow him to escape so easily. It u aid w -k nit not quite so difficu as at first, but we finally got ths s ond dn nk in him. The •H make his veins tingle, nte old impulse came back and he was oneef the boys .1 “I don’t know how much we drink When midnight came we were all iri a decidedly mellw condition, and he, poor fellow, was gibbering away as foolishly as an ape. Even then I felt some compunction and recissled the resolution to take him home and prop llion in tlie doorwav. I wanted to sober him up at a hotel. The others i finally per.uaded me io accept their plan. We reached his liouie early in the morning. There was a light in the parlor, and drunk as I was, I my heart growing heavy as 1 thought of the young wife whose face had far had no shadow cast upon it. I knew what a terrible shock tlie realization of her husband’s would be to her. There was no ing back now, though, Steadying ourselves up we held him and rang t’ d-jor bell. In a moment the d speiied. She must have heard 0 ,’ approaching footsteps. I have nevJjl forgotten the awful look of anguish 9 her eyes. A great sigh escaped fro§ ui her, her teeth bit down on her until it seemed as if they would ca through and through. Eveiy hit gof | the bravado of the crowd was now. No one said a word except h| husband, and he, poor fellow, looks up at her with the eyes of a fool as . murmured, ‘Ilow-de sweetheart.’ j “I don’t know how lie did it, Lit we carried him in and placed him J 1 1 a lounge Then we silently tiled t with unsteady steps. Not a word w-s said. I was the last one to leave, a I turned to close the door I saw Dr fall on her knees by his side. H r body was convulsed with sobs, and, 8 I shut husband and wife from sigh, her face was on his, her arm lieneah his neck, and tears were bathing fie fevered countenance. Then I k’»* that I had helped to almost break a pure, Joving, faithful heart.' 1 “Is that all?” assked the reporfir. “No; I wish it were.

Sometimes I wonder what a mean man thinks about when he goes to beds When he turns down the light and lies down alone, he is the compelled to be honest with himself. Not a bright thought, not a generous impulse, not a word of blessing, not a grateful look comes back to him, not a penny drop¬ ped into the palm of poverty, not the balm of a loving word dropped into an aching heart, no sun beams of encour agement cast upon a struggling life, no strong right hand of fellowship reached out ^ h< ]p some fallen man to his feet—when none of those things come to him as the “God bless you” of the departed day, how tie must hate himself, how lie must try to roll away from himself, how he must try to roll away from himself and sleep on the other side of the bed, when the only victory he can think ot is some mean victory, in, in which lie has neighbor. No wonder lie alway sneers when he tries to smile, How pure, and fair, and good all the rest of the world must look to him, and how careless and dreary must his own fate appear! Why; even one isoloted act of meanness is enough to scatter cracker crumbs in the bid of an ordi¬ nary mim, and what must be the feel¬ ings of a miui whose whole life is given up to mean acts? When there is so much suffering, and heartache, and misery in tne world, anyhow, why should anyone add a pound of wicked¬ ness or sadness to the general burden? Don’t be mean, boys. Suffer injustice a thousand times rather than commit. it once. P. P r cures Scrofula, Salt Rheum and all humors, I)ys|» n«ju, Sink Headache Biliousness.
