How a Vicar Became a Total Abstainer

At a meeting, recently, a clergyman told how he became a total abstainer. He had previously been connected with a moderate society, and having one evening presided at one of its meetings, he was accosted while walking along the street the next morning, by one of his parishioners, who, endeavoring to put his arms around his neck, hiccuped out, "I do so love you, good Mr. Vicar; I goes with you for moderation." The good vicar became a total abstainer the next day.
