King Edward's son-in-law. the Duke ot File. during the course of a speech the other day at the open- ing bt a charitable institution in the neighborhood of London. inci- dentally remarked that he had been a total abstainer tor the past live years. He did not expatlate on the principles of the temper. ance movement. but merely remark- ed that he had given up the use ot stimulants of every kind. be. cause he thought it was “best for me to do so." This announcement becoming known simultaneously with the intiu'cstion by the King that ho felt quite as much honored to have his health drank with wa- ter at with wine in the army and navy. has given great satisfaction to all those who have the cause or temperance at heart in Great Britain. At all tho otncors' messes in tho army and navy it is tradi. tion and etiquette that the Sover. cign’s health should be drunk every day at dinner. It has likewise been construed as an offense to the Crown to any one to abstain from drinking the toast in wane. and this. tf course. has rendered mat. ters extremely tlttfitutlt tor men men who, either tor the sake of principle or on the ground of health, had abandoned the use of stimulants.
