When a man is in the excited stage
of alcoholism—that is, has had a quan
tity of alcohol sufficient, not to make
him drunk, but to stimulate the proc
esses of his thought—-we find him talk
ing rapidly and vividly, and if we art
ourselves the man, we find ourselves
thinking in pictures with very great
rapidity—that is, each thought or men
tal picture leads instantly to another.
But we know this to be morbid and the
result of alcohol poisoning. And wt
know- it to be disastrous to the brain to
repeat this process often. We know
further that the same thing may occur
without* the alcoholic poison.

IN MEMORY OF ONE CORN.
Hr
AA a« a AA extern Lawyer, UL
Dearly Lov«-d a Joke.
Among tbe early-day settlers of Smith
county, of whom Judge Dick 1’ickltr | -1
wrote in his Christinas n inini vcvhm
was Attorney ’Dolph ( orn, who k
b«*en dead for a score of years. Con
was a splendid lawyer, but almostnfail
ure in the practice. He knew no more
the value of money than ;i child, h
loved his family, and so long as tie. 1
were happy and contented he was I k -
yond tlie reach of care, lie was bub-
I". I
bling over with humor and simply cu - h I
not be serious for a moment. He was
willing to lose a case at any time
rather than forego the pleasure of
amusing his friends with a witticism.
Mr. Corn once ran for county attor
ney. and held joint debates with his
opponent. At one of their meetings
his opponent hinted broadly at one of
Mr. Corn’s weaknesses as follows: “If
anj man here to-night can say I ever
took fees on both sides ef « tu*e IA«
some one I could name let him now
stand up and say so. If anyone can sa
I ever swindled a client or that I ha*
ever been guilty of a dishonest action,
let him now say so.’*
Then it came Mr. Corn’s turn and h**
responded as follows: “It is perhap
true that I have taken fees on both sidr
of a case, and it is a source of gnat re
gret that some other lawyer does nof
move into the county, so I won’t have to
attend to both sides. Gentlemen, it
n ; v also be true that you know > *mv
thing of me that would not sound well
if told. If such is the case I wanttosa;
that you will do me a kindness to keep
quiet about it until after the election
is over.’*
I hi view of the situation o ‘ tr i.
tin humor of the voters that Mr. Cor
carried the township by a prrcticn’l.’’
unanimous vote. “On on<* o<*r*i',::n.
».it s Jiiilg* Pickier, “two men et-ia-.- in
I orn * i-fllec .md had him take ont ’
chattel mortgage, and then the oM
question arose an to who should | : h'r
it. One Kaul; “Let's nettle it e<- ‘ol-
ir.g to custom. I will abide by it If von
"ill, and. both agreeing, thei left if
to (<>m to x«y what the custom v.
Dolph nerntched his head, but tritilh
ruefully said: “Well. I don't eva t»
I'ke that. So fur as I am concerned I
-Ion t like to abide by the cuetom. for
the custom is that whenever two fel
lows want a chattel mortgage drawn
they come in here, am! when the work
is done they usually get into a quarrel
as to who should pay and gooff withost
anyone paying for it.-—Kanaas City
