"WINE AND WIT.

"When the wine is in the wit is out," says the proverb. Bui. Bvery one who takes the usual modest share of wine at any feast must have observed that the wit seems to come is with the wine. A dinner party seems and sounda much livelier after the guest. have had glass of champagne. To themselves they appear much brighter, happier, waiting for some late guest, or while trying to find a topic which may interest a fair neighbour. To themselves, they seem wittier, and they certainly are gayer and more volublo, But it is not so certain that the appear ance is not illusive. This melancholy re- flection occurs to one when, after a pleasant and merry meeting, ona tries to remem ber the good things which were said. We remember that A was diverting, that B several times was rewarded by a laugh, and that sparkled. But where are these good things now? "We had a good talk," but wo CAD recallikle of it."

We may be certain that few men-il any men at all-can write their best, or nearly their best, with wine busy in their brain. He who should try this bums the candiest both ends, but without producing a brilliant illumination. Now, this is a strong proof that the wil goas out when the wine comes in. Perhaps some scientific t co of letters will try writing en article while he drinks'a bottle of champagne, and, after reading it next morning; will tell us what he thinks of H. lic probably will have to confess that the wit has been driven out by the wine, though it may have seemed splendid while he writing. Indeed, any natural elation of spirits, I think, makes us over-estimate the work com- posed, while it lasted; and the best things are done in a sober and self-distrustful mood. In Mr. Kipling's "The Light That Failed" the bero, growing blind, can see and can paint under the influence of whisky. I doubt, as a layman, if this be physiologically carreel. It certainly does not hold good in the art of writ ing, where wine and wit seem hostile powers incapable of living at peace.

The young writer who thinks that he needs an intellectual stimulus may take Mark Twain's advice and try fish eating, "beginning with two small whales." The influence of coffee os literature probably is to belter than that of alcohol. If the object merely be to write agalast time coffee may serve, but an athletic performance of that sort is not literary. For tunately tobacco has not yet been found de structive of the finer faculties. The whole

question of wine and wit would be solved could we be certain that Plata correctly reports the speech, of the less than perfectly sober Alcibi ades in the "Symposium," and thai Thucydides correctly reports the speeches of Alcibiades sober.-Chicago Tribune.
