I W. C. T. U. NOTES t
I was at one time a gnest for a
week in the home of one of our moat
earnest W. O. T. U. workers. At
breakfast I was offered coffee, and at
dinner and supper tea, all of which I
declined. The second morning, as I
refused coffee, uiy hostess said to me,
with some sharpness "Are you goiug
to rreacu to me at every meal in
regard to the use of tea and coffee?"
"Preach to you!" I said. "Why, I
haven't said a word."
"I know it," she replied, "but yoa

relying upon stimulation to enable
them to get through with their day's
work. ' I 2 ouce beard a phjsician

'Mo, ludeed, I am too wise to begin
the day with a stimulant. "
It i9 quite evident that the beigu
ning of a species of intemperance
may be made in very early lufancy.
Iu Germany mothers 'give their bubieii
beer and because the baby Miiacks its
lips, the mothers claim that beer is
the normul drink "for babies. But
otl er kinds of intemperance are be
gun in early childhood. The baby
who is fed every time it cries, is be
iug taught to put something '. intofits
mouth for the alleviation of pain or
discomfort The same child, doubt
leas a little older grown, will be
soothed, wheu hnrt, by apples, cake
three weeks, after which he felt sure
that it had becrmc deteriou through
fermentation. The makers of apple
ji-llies tell us that in three days 'time
ferine utation of apple Juice has
proceeded to such an extent that it
will not jell. Therefore, if older is
to be used as a temperance drink, it
uiust be taken as Boon as pressed,
for if it remains standing open to the
air, ferine ntatiou begins immediately.
Physicians who live iu communities
where cider forms a daily beverage,
tell us that the most ill-tempered aud
ungovernable druukards are cider
drunkards, aud the most unmanage
able caes of delirium tremeug come
from those who are habituated to the
use of hard cider. Home made beers
are supposed by mauy to be eutirely
innocent. As one good W. C. T . U.

to some form of gustatory pltasure in
