For more than ten years we have re-
peatedly called the attention of the
friends Oftemperancet TO the onlyeffectual
method of stopping dissipation and
breaking up the haunts of vice and in
temperance. With tongue and pen We
have pressed upon the scattered factions
Of the temperance cause the necessity Of
uniting in one grand effort and securing
national legislation to utterly and fully
prohibit the manufacture and importa-
ton of alcohol and alcoholic drinks man
ufactured from distilled spirits, making
the whole cOutraband of peace and det-
rimental to good society and the welfare
of the nation. IT CAN BE DONE. Gov
ernment agents alone should manufac-
ture for chemical and mechanical pur-
poses only, and under heavy penalties
for violation, and the whole business
managed like coinage or the manufac-
ture of stamps.
We sometimes heara sound argument
against il, that our statesmen are dissi-
pated and dishonest. Perhaps so, and
II 50 it j. time they were retired on back
pay, and sober and honest men put in
their places. We are not necessitated
to make up our Congress of drunkards
nor Of knaves or fools. There are hon
est men enough that could live well and
do better work for the country on the
old salary than the late Congress can on
its present pay, and men who would
not be under the necessity spending
half the session investigating their own
corruption, and then when the stealing
had been seriously checked, vote them
selves extra pay when they had more
than they needed or deserved before.
Probably We need not expect much
from this Congress, but a better one is
coming.
We took up the pen to say the A'd-
HOnai Temperance Society has at last
opened its eyes to this important meas
ure, and resolved to begin the work and
besiege Congress for national action
1t will come to that At last, and we sc,
no way TO accomplish it but to organic,
national political temperance part
and work the measure up to a point o
success, but we need the votes Of tn
women, and we shall have them befOr
long.-Bdmer of Light

At the Seaside.



All through the listless summer days
7 SIT t1uun the bordering land
with earnest, fascinated gaze
I watch the white waves wash the SAND.
Tsee them come, I see them go;
They come with steady, stealthy creep,
AZ II with sure, resisfleSs now
To bury all beneath their sweep.
But al nv feet the waves are stayed;
All. sfealthy, mighty, treacherous sea-
The Greater Power who all hath made
Hath set q limit cen 70 thee!
The phantom ships with spreading wings
FIit past betwiXt the sea and sky;
They seem Ike living, conscious things
With mysterious destiny.
All. surging sea with restless roll,
There's a responsive chord in me;
As heats thy waves so beats my soul
In longings FOR inhnity.
or phantom thoughts with spreading wings
Fit o'er the surface OF my mind;
They come, they 60, like conscious things
And leave a lasting wake behind.
Oh. restless. tossing, troubled sea!
Oh, troubled, struggling. human soul!
How mighty, yet how weak ye be!
How chafe ye, how ye spurn controll
The waves leap up against the sky,
To fall in baffied anger back;
Nv spirit strives, with piteous cry,
To gain higher, nObler track.
Oh. sighing soul! oh, surging deepl
Look upf Take heart Of faithi For even
Above oui heads the white clouds sweep!
50 shall ascend the soul 10 Heaven!

Waiting Until the Last Moment.

The habit of putting off and deferring
until the last moment things which
must be ready at certain time causes
much poor and mediocre work, many
unfinished jobs, broken promises, and is
in fact one of the means by which the
world is kept in confusion.
"Iou shall have your boots one week
from to-day" says a shoemaker four or
five times over 10 customer, who has
called as many times to be disappointed
and hear the falsehood repeated. But
who ever knew a pair of boots TO be
ready when promised? IL there lives
such fortunate being, his shoemaker
should receive national patronage. Not
but that shOemen intend TO have their
work ready on time and desire TO please
theirc ustomers; but while many of them
promise much more than they can pos
sibly finish, a large class wait until the
day a job is promised before beginning
the work. Then, If all particulars are
not minutely written down, half the lit
! tie details of the order are forgotten, the
l boots are rushed through with long
stitches, and are not ready when called
for. Shoemakers are not alone in this
practice of prOcrastination. Dress-mak-
ers, milliners and tailors avail them
selves of its disadvantages, both to pat
rons and themselves.
The workman or woman in any de-
partment of labor, who is always prompt
and punctual In having work ready
when promised, stands the best kind
Of chance TO make money and friends.
When a customer has to work day
or two on n dress after il is sent home
from the dress maker, she is not apt to
be pleased with the job, or to call again,
or recommend her friends to do so.
Good dress-mAkerS are called bad ones
by putting of work, until haste makes a
botch of garment
/ Nothing so builds up reputation and
brings friends and patronage to any bus
iness as beginning in time TO have work
ready when promised, and to have il
well done. Housekeepers who act upon
/ the same principle have cOntented fam
lilies, orderly homes and pleasant, when
deferring until the last minute would
keep things in tumble of late dinners,
scorched meats, hot pastry and cross
/ husbands.-ElDlO Orion.

Powerful Tonic,

Promoting the Appetite and InvfgOratlng the
whole Digestive Apparatus, thus building up
and strengthening the system, while at the
same time the volatile principle, being abb
sorbed in the blood, acts specifically on the
Rheumatic Poison, removing 1t from the circu-
lntiOn and system.
There are few remedies known 20 the Medical
Profession which will remove the Rheumatic
Poison from the blood, but whose action is so
powerful in depressing the system of the al
ready enfeebled Rheumatic patient, that their
use has to be abandoned before specific effects
are obtainable, and hence the want Of success
In treating this prevalent and consequently
heretofore incurable disease. Unlike these
medicines, already known, the UNK WEED
REMEDY, although producing as active and as
powerful effects on the blood and system in re-
moving the Rheumatic Poison, also possesses a
strong Tonic and Recuperating Element which
admits OF Its continued use even by the most
delicate and debilitated. Thus we have the
combination for the first time of these two
necessary elements in one remedy which ac-
counts for its superior and never-failing curative
effects In Rheumatism, Rheumatic Ciout and
Rheumatic Pains of all kinds.

ulRrly APPLICABLE TO LADIES' ia conse-
quence Of its Tonic Qualities.

CHEER HIM-A fireman was once
striving to save person i'm danger of
perishing in a burning house, but the
flames leaped out of the windows and
beat him back. Hell never do itu'
cried one. He'll have TO come dowuw
"Cheer himw shouted another, and in
moment three stirring hurrahs went
up from the crowd. Ii nerved the mans
arm ard strengthened his spirit. 1t
quickened his movements, and in
another minute he bore Il child down
in safety TO its mothers arms.
What power is In that cheeringi
So il often is with those who are ready
10 give out 10y the way They would
have peri>hed but for some stirring
word Of cheer. God put il in the heart
OF some one to speak to them. Have
you ever cheered a desponding heart
thus? Or have you let the opportunity
slip by with the feeling: Gam l my
brothers keeper ?'' We are all, in a
sense, our brothers. keeper Is there u
poor, down-hearted man in our commu-
nity whom sickness and misfortune have
reduced? Don't give him the cold
shoulder, as is the worlds custom when
q person is unfortunate. Cheer him,
ana see II II will not infuse new life into
ms heart. DO more. Lend helping
hand
What would you have done that day
your wheel got stuck in a rut, If a
neighbor had not happened along who
could lend you helping hand for five
minutes? 1t was very little for him IA
do, but il was worth great deal to you.
\ little after, you We're rolling along
prosperously, as if nothing had hap
pened- Just so a little cheer and little
heiP often puts poor neighbor on the
road again Surely it were worse thar
churlish to refuse TO give what costs yoU
such little effort, yet it is worth Sc
much.

Hiss Violetta COlviIle is creating
quite sensation in Germany. She
sang at a concert for the poor at Caris-
bad, on the 9Th ult. Her success was so
great that, on the following day, the
burgomaster wrote to beg of her to sing
again for the benefit Of the sufferers by
the fire in that town. At the second
concert the prices were doubled. a
deputation of the principal citizens
waited on her at her hotel to thank her
for the aid which she had given them,
and she received many beautiful pres
ents. The Princess de Rohan sent word
that if the young American lady sang
again she would take one hundred for
ms worth of tickets. Miss Colville has
left Carlsbad for Berlin, but will shortly
return to the fotmer place where she will
probably give several concerts on her
own account.

Kickapoo Characteristics.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
AS so little is known by the general reader
respecting the different Indian tribes on our
frontier some facts relating to the Kickapoos,
whom General McCook recently gave a good whip
ping, may prove interesting.
l was in the service OF the government In 1912 In
the Upper Red River, and there became acquainted
with them. These Kickapoos have committed
more crimes than any other tribe Of Indians West.
They are o body OF bad men-brave, daring and
bloodthirsty-and may be termed. as far
as their fighting and hunting qualities
CO. "the kings OF the iorest.v All tribes dread
them, as they seldom visit any location without
either stealing horses or committing some mis-
demeanor. When the white people first COM
menced settling on Red River, above the mouth OF
Kiamlcha, these Indians murdered and robbed I'M
ceaslngy, mutatng the bodies OF their poor
victims drcadluy. Their movements We're
swift and the country, ut that day, so sparsely
them with any chance Of success. From Red RIVER
they would go to the Rio Grande when the
MeXicans-lor whom they had perfect contempt
would suffer.
In person they are fine looking, tall and very
athletic. You seldom see one under five feet six.
practising, their fav0rite distance is from sixty TO
one hundred yards oil hand. They hold the rife
well up to their shoulder, and as steady as If IN
vice, shoot very quick, and when hunting never
will average twenty deer day. In dress they
perfect Puritans; they have mo glitterng gewgaws
stuck about them - eggings and moccasns out OF
well dressed dearskins, with shirt made out OF
blue drilling completes their toilet. They wear
their HAIR cut short unlike all other Western tribes

nicted upon them. j.

The FARMERS NATIONAL CONGRESS met at
indianapolis on Thursday last and adjourned
on the following day. As indicating the
strength of the farmers organization it may
be stated that twenty-four States were repre-
sented, from Vermont to Georgia, embracing
ninety societies, with one hundred and fifty
delegates According to the report Of the
Secretary there are already ten thousand agri-
cultural associations in the country, with an ag
gregate membership Of four hundred thousand
farmers 1t appears that two-thirds of these
associations have been organized within the
past six months. The question of transporta-
ton was the most important one discussed by
the Congress, free trade having been given
the go-by. The proceedings were not charac-
terized by any demonstrations of political
character. Nevertheless, an organizationlthat
embraces four hundred thousand members,
with certain political tendencies, is too for
midable to be despised by either political party,
and neither is likely to do So
