wealthy man.
Everybody," nail Dr. Humoral,
knows tho ginsjur beer, tlio popular
drink of tho middlo and lower clauses
in England, tho yearly gales of which
(at one ponny per bottle) reauhes mil
lions and millions of boUlm. Hut the
origin of this pleasant, cheap and truly
lomperance drink, is not known, and
I doubt whether, even in England, there
are many mon who could say how and
by whom it was invented. 'The story
iavors a little of romance, and I can
vouch for its truth, having heard it
many a time from the lips of the in
vontor, "ho was rather proud of his
achievement, and not without reason.
"Some eighty years ago, Louis Care,,
a boy of a'xtemi, the son of a V07
poor country physician in France, was
sent by his father to a school in Lon
don in which ho got board,
lodging and , instruct'on in English in
cxciiango for lessons in French" to tho
younger pup la. E'ght months later
the schoolmaster died, tho school was
closed, and Louis Carcz found himself
alono in the big c ty witliout a friend
and with very scanty resources. While
looking out for another school, he took
a room in the house of a druggist, in
one of the low parts of the city, and
managed to live witli live dollars a
month, all that his father could send
him. It was utmost starvat on. Hut
the poor boy had not seen tho end of
h's troubles. One day the monthly re
mittance failed the father was dea l!
The boy would have d ed of want if it
had not" been for the kind charity of the
old dnigg'st and his wife. They had
become atiached to tho pretty, well-behaved
boy,' they pitied liis forlorn po
sition, they gave li'm his room and liis
board until he could obtain a situation.
Anx'ous to make himself useful, Louis
Carcz swept and cleaned the I ttle store,
and was soon able to help tho old man
in preparing simple prescriptions.
-One day. as he was alono in the
storo. 11 woman called for some ginger
powder. Louis served her. and, after
she left, tasted the powder. Ho liked
it, but finding it burnt h;s tongue, ho
mixed it with water. Then an idea
struck him. Ho put some ginger pow
der in one glass and in another a little
sugar and the contents of tho white
paper of a se'dliU powder, added water
to both, poured the contents of one
class into the other and drank wttn do
litfht the pleasant, cllorveseing draught.
The crinrer beer, although in a crude
state, was discovered! For several
davs. whenever ho had a chance, the
young inventor experimented in the
small laboratory, and having at length
perfected his new beverage, he calcu
lated that he wanted two guineas to
manufacture his liiiuid, buy one hun
dred boUles, as many corks, and somo
twine. One tine morning he made up
his mind to sneak to the druggist, ex-
pla:n his idea, and beg for the loan of
two gu neas. nut tue oiu man uui not

tie enthus astic young b:iy anil refused

wonder is not that the child adopted

Her daughter d'd not take after the
widow. She was the confidence child
of a confiding mother. We should not
