Oom Paul a Temperance Man.

Mr. Kruger, as every one knows, is a constant smokier; it is not, perhaps, so well under stool that he has only once tasted alcohol in his life. That was at Bloemfontein, after the signing of the alliance with the Free State. Kruger is said to have taken off a bumper of champagne, and put down the glass with a face of disgust.
