A SNAKE IN A CIDER BARREL.

In small and retired village in the north
east part of the State of Connecticut, lives
wealthy farmer. This man processes to be a
humble follower Of Jesus Christ He is fond
Of the Intoxicating bowl. His parents are still
living, both of whom are strictly temperate
as are most of the inhabitants of the place.
The blush Of shame would mantle his cheeks
were they not bloated with cider. Of this ar
ticle he has long kept large quantity on
hand. His neighbors at last began to discuss
the subject, as to the quantity he daily con-
sumed. All agreed that he was not a tempe
rate man. He was a man Of wealth, and the
church must not interfere. Finally he resolved
that no more cider should be drank on his
premises. The glad news of his reform sent
a thrill Of JOY to many hearts. For season
he ran well-yet his face, nose, and mouth,
retained the same scottish aspect as before.
Oh! ye temperate drinkers! ye tipplers and
all who drink "behind the door," take warn-
ing! because your sins will find you out. This
man, SO conscientious that he would not have
a barrel of cider tapped in the cellar, procured
a piece of leaden pipe and sucked cider from
the bung hole. The poisonous qualities Of the
lead mixing with the cider, received into his
stomach, all but took his life. With great
difficulty his physician restored him TO health.
Tipplers take the friendly warning; never
profess to be what you are not. Death turks
in the cider barrel.

SOMETHING FOR CLERGYMEN.

The Rev. Dr. Hamilton, who, we believe,
was member Of the late Presbyterian Gene
raj Assembly, held in Cincinnati, at a Tem-
perance meeting in that city, related a passage
in his history which no doubt told with thrill
ling effect. Many years ago, when quite
young, his mind was first aroused on the SUBJ
ject of religion, by a sermon preached by a
very pious and eloquent divine in New Jersey.
A, very short time after this, he left home to
commence his education. In the course of
about ten years he returned, and among his
first inquiries was one for this minister, by
whose preaching he had been awakened. He
was answered by a dubious shake Of the head;
but persevering in his inquiry, he was told
that, from drinking an occasional glass, he
had gone SO far that he was deposed from the
ministry, and finally cut off from the church,
and the last intelligence from him was, that
he was erpiating some crime in The State pri-
SON. From that moment DIR. Hamiiton's mind
was made up on the subject, and he deter
mined, be the sacrifice what it might, to exert
all his influence to Danish the use Of intoxica.

MY FATHER TAKES WINE.
BY NIMBLE.

EH.A
~ Miss Williams is one OF the few young
ladies our city can claim as temperance ad-
vocate; her parents are poor, but respected
by all that knew them, and to their poverty,
perhaps, may be attributed her pious and
praiseworthy exertions in the temperance
cause. a n.. "a.
Miss Williams being an active teacher in
the Sunday school attached to ----- church,
had solicited the superintendent, who was a
favorite temperance man, to allow her to get
the signatures of her class to the temperance
pledge. He gladly consented, and she pro-
ceeded to secure the names, until she came to
the fourth young girl i'll the class, when she
was surprised by the little girl exclaiming,
'My father takes wine and why should not I?"
Miss Williams stood amazed, and replied,
Surely not, my dear, your father is clergy.
man."
eyes, Miss Williams, can assure you he
does," said the artless child.
"But that is no objection why you should
not sign, and therefore taste none"
II cannot sign. Pa says the temperance
pledge is only for the poor, who drink nasty
poison, and not TOR the gentlemen who take
wine."
The faithful teacher felt grieved and panied
to be thus foiled by child, and besought the
object of her love to put her name to the
pledge, and take it home to her father.
"Oh, no! I love you, Miss Williams, but
dare not disobey my father; and besides, what
would drink when visit Mrs. c., and Mrs.
S., and Mrs P, &C.; how they would laugh
at me because would not taste little wine. :
"Ah! my DEAR" said Miss Williams,
'these are the supporters Of your fathers
church, and he, poor man, dare not expose
the horrid vice, for fear Of his situation;' ane
with tear in her eye, and heavy heart, sht
left the child of the minister of God, and turn
ing to little pale, halfclad orphan, asked hel
to put her name to it.
The oi,ifd's eye eparkled at the encouraging
voice of her teacher, and with trembling heart
and hand, gladly put her name to the paper,
and felt but too happy that she could oblige
her faithful friend
The cause of temperance flags for want of
faithful men in high places.
The same high-minded teacher Of the rudi-
ments of Christianity, has to weep over hel
superiors' faults. Superiors, however, in

but as far inferior in nobelness of spirit, high
toned morality, and love of God and neigh

Two years more rolled away,
and now the child Of many prayers, the Chris
tian sailor, under the parental roof was seen
gradually sinking beneath the wasting infu-
ence of consumption. A milder climate was
sought to arrest or to retard the progress ct
decay. But in vain. The sailor returned
home-To DIE. For few days, and only for
a few, was he permitted to linger on earth
and they were days of sadness-days of tears
and yet they were days of joy-of sweet and
holy remembrances. Peaceful, and calm, and
happy, as the gentle slumbers Of childhood on
a mothers breast, was the dcath-bed of the
sailor He had long been tossed amidst the
tempest and the storm, and often had his heart
eaped at the cry from the topmast, /" Land
ahead" and now he was just at the end of his
voyage, his eye was on the port, and he could
feel that there was "Land ahead" AS heard,

of tender sister, the tale of the more than

brother, thought of the language in which a
poet has described the death-bed scene of a

TIE SAILOR HOME AT LAST.
A SKETCH by REV. JOHN BOWLING.

1t was in the winter Of 1912, and during an
interesting revival of religion in New England
congregation, of which the writer was pastor,
that pious father rose nearly at the close Of
an evening meeting, and spoke, in substance,
nearly as follows: "Brethren, wish you to
pray for my first born son he has been wild
and wayward youth, but the child of many
prayers. For the last eight or ten years, that
is, from the age of thirteen years, he has been
a awanderer on the deep; he has passed through
many perils and hardships, sometimes been
brought to the very brink of the grave, but an
unseen hand has preserved him. TIL within
few days he has continued careless and indif-
ferent to the concerns of his soul, but at length
his mind seems tender, and we have begun to
hope that the Spirit Of God is at work on his
heart. But, brethren, tomorrow he sails as
an officer of a ship for China, and exposed as
he will be to the temptations of sailors life,
tremble for his welfare. Brethren, pray for
my first born SOM" On that evening many a
heartfelt prayer ascended to God for the said
son, in which the praying father most heartily
joined but the object of those prayers sailed
on the morrow, aoithouta hope. y
Months rolled away. and still the prayers Of
a father and mother followed that wanderer on
the ocean wave, and hope was mingled with
anxiety, doubt, and suspense. Ayear had pass
ed away, and that father was permitted to ex-
claim, Brethren, rejoice with me, my son
which was dead is alive again; he was lost
and is found" A letter had arrived from that
son, with the joyful news that he had found
the pearl of great price, and had been baptized
in China by the Rev. Mr.. Shack, Baptist
Missionary from America. 40" said he in
this letter, 81 have indeed rolled sin as sweet
morsel under my tongue, but Gods protecting
hand has been over me for good" Then, after
referring to the day of his baptism, "Oh, it
was a day Of days to my soul. A lovely, plea

THE DANDY'S LAMENT.


No whiskers yet no whiskers yet!
And Toms pair so black and stout!
In vain sigh-in vain fret
In.vain l try to coax them out!
lvow I'm twenty-one or nearly,
And nothing yet upon my chin,
Except crop Of fi,z, which yearly
Seems to grow more frail and thin!
No whiskers yet and no moustache!
Although without fault my hair;
Not cen poor imperial,
To stamp me with foreign air
With Beals and Jones I've spent enough,
Besides fortune with Gouraud;
I've found out. to my cost, their stuff
Is all humbug, and no go!
No whiskers yet no whiskers yet!
Good heavens, what can the matter be :!
While every belle makes Tom a pet,
They make no bones Of sighting me.
Twill never do, as Pm alive

Unless | get whisker false,
And stick sham imperial on.
Egad I'll do it. and why not?
For, if the whisker makes the man,
Why won't false one do as well
AS any? Answer me who can!
I'll do it then I'll cut a swell!
And since to Fame the once rough road
Is paved with hair. We gods then

THE PRINTERS DOOM
BY THos. MACKEEKAR.

A printer weary and wan,
His face all mortally pale,
As he wearily plodded his homeward way
Before the breaking of early day,
Broke out in bitter wall.
His voice was husky and low,
AS though his lungs were gone;
And he cough'd and gasp'd, and cough'd again,
And he press'd his hand on his heart in pain,
While thus his plant ramon;
"a world of toll is this!
1t hath no joys for me:
IT'S labor by day, and labor by night,
By the light of the sun, and by candle Light
Labor continually.
Some men have a day ofres
But Sabbath for me is not;
1t is toll all the week, and toll on the day
That God has given 10 rest and to pray
Lo this is the printers lot!
"When was boy" he said,
81 play'd on the hills ofgreen;
swan in the stream-I fish'd in the brook
And blest was to sit and look
Unfettered on natures scene.
"For twenty sad years and more,
My life has worn away
In murky rooms of poisonous air,
When I've yearn'd for sight of the valleys fair
And the light of open day.
"An innocent prisoner doom'd,
MY heart is heavy Within
Oh, why should man untanted by guilt,
Who the blood Of q creature never hath split,
Be pent, like a felon, for sin -
The printer then coughd and sigh'd-
The stars were growing dim,
And he upward glanced at the morning sky,
And he inly thought that it was good to die,
And death would be rest to him.
His heart was tired OF beating
He prayed to the'Iord above,
TO pity man whose heart had been rven
BY toll, for other mems interest given
And he wept for his mercy and love.
He hed to his humble home
His infant awoke to cry,
aOh, father! oh, mother! I'm hungry for bread !"
And the printer bowed down with aching head,
On his Mary's lap to die.
Oh We who have never known
The richness that's in crust,
When nothing is found on the desolate shell,
And the sufferers pocket is empty ofpelf-
Receive my story on trust.
Say in your careless scorn,
What boots the tale to you
The rhymer who traces these roughly writ lines,
Hath known Of such sufferers in other day times,
And the main OF his rhyme is true.
Remember this holy truth
The man who aloof hath stood,
When heart-broken brother for succor did crave
And he stretched not finger TO bless and TO save
Is verify guilty Of blood

THE TAR1FF.-The following briefex-
tract from the New York Weekly Ne,cs is
sufficient to prove the injustice of the pres
eut Tariff, and to show the destructive in
fuence it is exercising upon the prosperity
Of the country.
."'The revenue for the first year of the
present tariff was $l7,I06,252, nearly
$40, O0O, 900 less than the current expen-
diture. In the next year, it was $50, SOL
299, and for the present year will not ex-
coed $I7 100000. The average is $2l,-
600, 900, being far short of the necessary
expenditures. There can be no disorder
of the currency to plead for the ruined
trade of this year, as was the excuse in
1943. The fact stands forth incontroverti-
bly,, that while the present tariff is destroy
ing our foreign trade, it fails to afford the
government an adequate revenue, and must,
therefore, be reduced"
