A great-great-graiidaou of Franklin,
when only a lad, bad the insight to
see that liquor was nothing but an
enemy, and of 110 sort of help to a
man. llrilliiint, gifted beyond his
fellow, familiar with muiiy ohter
form of dissipation, and making no
secret of it, even enslaved by them,
he oiK o told me that lie uever drank
a drop of liipior. I asked why. The
answer wa short, but a volume, "My
father wa a drunkard." That Wa
all, And it was enough. No
scruples, moral or other, held hliu
hack. Hut be bad read tho terrible
object lesson, which could not fail to
make a prufouud Impression upon the
mind of a bright boy, that tho liijucir
habit In a house means, almost cer
tainly, the destruction (if that house.
That "the drunkard and tho glutton
shall coino to poverty" is as true to

thousand years ago. William tllalkie,

"Iu tho Fall of 1HA0 I wa trailing a
