You stand where I stood a few veare ago. Yon and I complete the picture of my life. 1 1 was, alas, a eenator! My bloated face was once as young and handsome ae yours. This shambling figure once walked as proudly ae your«. I, too, , ones had a home and friends «nd position. I had a wife a« beautiful «« an artist'« dream, and I <Iropp’d the priceless pearl of her honor and re«|>ect in Hie wine cup, and, Cleopatra like, naw it dissolve, and quaffed it down. I had children a« sweet and lovely as the flowers of spring, and 1 saw them fade and die under the cur«e of a drunken father. 1 had a home where love lit the flame upon the altar asd ministered before it, and I put out the holy tire, «nd darkness and desolation reigned in its stead. 1 tai aspirations and ambitions that soared an high as the morningntar, and 1 broke and bruised their taautital wings, and at last strangled them, that 1 might be tortured with their cries ao more To day 1 am a hustand without a wife, a father without a child, a tramp with out a home to call his own, a man in whom every go<jd impulse Is dead. All, all swallowed up in the maelstrom of drink. “Young gentlemen,” he said, ss he panned out into the darkness, “whichever way you go, whether you follow your tuolhern’, wives’ ami children'« prayers, and enjoy their love on earth and dwell with them in heaven, or whether you be< *ome a saddened eoul, forever lost, like me, I—I wish you well. “I nhall never forget that sad picture,” continued the hemorist. “It was wit and humor ending in pathos. Tears dimmed the eyes of youth an they watched a despairing soul disappearing in Ihr darkness.” Geber, Geo Green, Dan Griffin, Scott llxinp on, W If llannurn, E F Harmon, J \V Hartb, P H Haakina, W A Hill, Jos Friday, Bd Ininun, W F Jewell, Bulben Johnson, Chas Karg, G Kiphart.
