Nearly every topper in Columbus,
Ohio, is reformed, one man who
three months ago was a drunken sot.
drank up all his earnings, and his wife
and children had not been to church
in two years for want OF decent
clothes, came TO the Temperance
meeting and brought all his family
with him comfortably dressed-pring-
ing his children forward to the light,
he called on his drunken comrades
to look:-Says he, "You never saw
my children before with a shoe on
their feet, or u dud on their back
sufficient to cover their nakedness:
now see how comfortably they are
clothed; see how comfortably my
wife looks; she is not ashamed Of me
now--God bless her-l am proud
of her." While he named his chill
dren's shoes, a little girl close by
spoke out. "See me got new shoes,
Mas got a new shawl, and Mrs
making Will a new coat" The scene
was most affecting.
