WINE IS A MOCKER.
CI/ERGYMZN WEO GET DRUNK. LONDON", December IS. Clerical circles are exercised at a statement made by the Bishop of Lincoln to tnc eiTcct that clergymen officiating at sacramental services are likely to become intoxicated unless the wine is well diluted with water. Speaking at a temperance meeting, the Bishop confessed that he had often been practically intoxicated during his forty years uf priesthood. When he had had to consume the remainder of the consecrated wine he had, on many occasions, been distressed by symptoms of giddiness and a momentary eclipse vi his usual strict sobriety. Such experiences ought to be avoided by the more liberal dilution of the wine with water.
