A Mothers Words.

A mother on the green hills of Yer.
mott was holding by the right hand
son sixteen years old, mad with love of
the sea. And as he stood by the garden
gate one morning she said
Edward, they tell me-for I never
saw the ocean-the great temptation of
a seaman's life is drink. Promise me,
before you quit mothers hand, that you
will never drink"
And" said he (for he told me the
story, 81 gave the promise, and went
the globe over, Calcutta and the Medi-
terranean, San Francisco and Cape of
Good Hope, the north pole and the
sonth. 1 saw them all in forty years,
and never saw q glass filed with spark
ling liquor that my mothers form by
the gate did not spring up before me,
and to-day am innocent of the taste of
liquor"
Was not that sweet evidence of the
power of single word Yet that is not
half.
For yesterday came into my count
ing-room man of forty years."
Do you know met"
Well, said he, "Iwas once brought
drunk into your presence on shipboard;
you were q passenger they kicked me
aside; you took me to your berth and
kept me there till had slept off the in
toxication then asked me if had a
mother. I said had never known q
word from her lips. You told me of
yours at the garden gate, and to-day I
am master of one of the packets in New
York, and I came to ask you to come
and see me-"

mand: Thou shalt abstain from gambling;
from dog fighting !; from horse racing /;
just in proportion to your love for
the Bible will you abstain from these
things, because they are detrimental to
the best interests of society according to
Bible principles. Therefore, since in
temperance is caused by the use of in
toxicating drink since in proportion to
the use Of s1ch drink drunkenness in
creases or diminishes and since the
most that can be said for this drink is
that it is needless luxury, and that the
world would be better and dpurer without it
therefore, you say, I will abstain, and
give the weight of my influence, as long
as I live, on the side Of abstinence,
sobriety and purity. This is in ac-
cordance with the teachings Of the Bible.
How many OF us, who are growing
old, wish we could be boys again !
Why9 Because we see 80 many things
to regret, so many wrong turns we have
taken. To be boy, with life before
you, with the clean page on which to
write your record, with opportunities
coming that you can improve-what
position, what privileged To be an
old man, with a record all stained and
blotted, knowing that no mortal hand
can clean the page; with opportunities
unimproved, and lost never to return
this is dreadful!
A wicked man, who had been a stage
driver, was, during the last few days OF
his life, very uneasy, an on his death
bed he constantly moved his feet,s and
looked distressed. When asked by his
wife: Harry, what is the matter9" he
said "Oh, I'm on an awful down
grade. and can't find the brake" Dear
young friends, your feet are on the
brake. Keep them there. You have,
under God, the future in your power; |;
your destiny in your own control. Re
member there is no one evil in the world
before which 30 many fall, as the evil OF
intemperance.
most earnestly desire that the youth
Of our country, especially our Sabbath
school scholars, shall give all their in
huence against this great evil. May
God help you TO avoid the perils in
life's journey, and the traps that are set
for your feet, 80 that from your place of
safety you may reach out your hand to
help the tempted who are struggling in
their chains, and may by self-denial be
enabled to "fulfill the law of Christ, I"

An Exciting Ride.

The ride from San Antonio, Texas, to
Ell Paso is one of the most stirring bits
of travel to be had in America. The
conveyance is four horse stage coach
es are changed three times ; and beyond
Concho, which is 216 miles north of San
Antonio, Bronco mules are under har-
ness. The mule is a fiery, untamable
little animal. possessed of all the spirit
ndspeed of racehorse, and all the long
suffering and patience of Spanish jack.
A correspondent Of the st. Louis Re
publican gives this account of "Lize !"
and "Murphy"-a dun and sorrel-
that have done splendid service on this
road: Until the four-horse coaches
were put on, their task was to draw a
blackboard twice week distance of
sixty five miles. The journey was made
in o single night, without water and
without food or rest, except an hour at
midnight at Van Horns we'll. When
returned from Mexico to the States these
two little mules pulled myself, another
passenger, some three hundred pounds
of mail and baggage. and the driver the
distance named. The driver cheered
the solitude of the night with many
anecdotes of their performances, and at
our request, and aided by us, frequent
~ tried to stop them between the sta
tions. Our attempts to dozso were in
effectual, for tbe more we would pull the
faster they would go. Some two weeks
later Gen. Cabell was the only passen-
ger, and tbn propensity of Lie" and
Murphy" to run was 30 great he con-
sidered his life in serious danger. He
drew his si1nshooter and kept it cooked,
determined to shoot one Of them through
the head if they ever left the road. But
leaving the road is something the mules
never do. They are trained to keep the
road, and to stop only at stations. They
know an Indian by the smell, and the
cracking of q stick by the roadside
makes them dart. In case the driver
should be shot from the box they would
keep on to the station all the same.

Before tile Election.

Dunbar's wife listened to a long
political disc ussion while riding down
town in Detroit, and at dinner she re-
marked to her husband:
"Well, eight or nine days more will
decide the election"
"In q measure" was his guarded
reply.
''I'm awful glad," she continued.
You commenced going out nights
about the first of March, and you've
kept it up ever since. I'll be one happy
woman about the eighth Of November.

and it may be next April before I get

American Meats In Europe.

Prof. Bouchardat, one of the mem
bers OF the Paris council Of hygiene and
salubrity, has recently directed public
attention to some of the foreign pre-
served meats imported into France as
being unfit for human food, and in
many cases positively dangerous. He
mentions especially kind of ham i'm
ported from Cincinnati, which is usually
enveloped in q cloth saturated with q
yellow substance, which, on examina-
ton, proved to be chromate OF lead-a
deadly poison. Prof. Bouchardat suR-
gests that If the American purveyors
prefer to have yellow envelope around
the alimentary substances they export,
the chromste Of lead may be discarded
for come other yellow substance-tur-
meric, for instance, which is known to
be entirely harmless,

Election Jokes.

A noted practical Joker got into po-

could name city in the United States

den.

81 will put up the money now," was
"Weil," said the Democrat, "Iu
just take that bet to teach you lesson.
Fools can be taught sense"
The money was placed in the hands
of bystander, and, as the party were
separating, the Joker called the betting
Democrat aside and whispered to him :
eff you had thought minute before
you took me up you would have remem-
bered that Warrington has over 10, 900
inhabitants"
From the fact that suffrage is not ex-
tended to the residents of the District
Of Columbia the joker insists that he
need not wait until after election to have
the bet decided.
Another joke that has been repeated
ly played upon innocents here is an as
sertion that even If Tilden is elected the
Republicans will not allow him to be in
augur ted on the fourth Of March.
After the victim has become sufficiently
excited he is informed that the fourth OF
March next comes on Sunday, and either
Mr.. Hayes or Mr.. Tilden or Peter
Cooper will have to wait until Monday
before being inaugurated. Graphic.
