the process an entire page Of a newspaper

ported within a mile or two Of few places.
The wind is favorable to keep the fires
away. Several farmers lose houses. barns.

be stopped by copious rain.-The consoli-
dated Temperance societies of Jersey City

A SIMPLE CURE FOR DRUNKENNESS.

A SIMPLE CURE FOR DRUNKENNESS.
ABrooklyn man writes to the SIN 81 drank
more Intoxicating liquor from the year 1857
to the last day of 1873 than any other person
| ever knew or heard of; and in the mean
time, knowing this sure cure, did not practice
it on myself, but tor fun did practice it on
many others, and effected permanent cures.
The remedy for the cure is this: When a
person finds he must have a drink, let him
take a drink of water, say two or three
swallows, as often as thirst or craving may
desire. Let him continue this practice.
His old chums will laugh but let him per-
severe, and it will not be a week before the
appetite for any kind of stimulant will dis
appear altogether, and waten be taken to
quench the natural thirst. If at any time
the victim should feel a craving, let him take
the first opportunity and obtain Q swallow
Of water, and he can pass and repass all
saloons. When he goes home at night he
will feel satisfied and be sober and have
money in his pocket. l commenced this
practice the first day of 1874, and never think
of taking a drink Of stimulants."

BLESS BADGE OF HEAVENS BLUE.n
Now Nature clothes herself in green,
And beauty smiles in every view,
Our thankful hearts embrace the scene,
Our eyes are turned to Hcaveu's blue.
Incompetence has said adieu.
Now wear a badge of Heavens blue.
The tippler, who for many years
Has walked along Distinctions edge,
Now tells his friends to dry their tears,
For he has signed the Murphy Pledge.
He now has passed from gloom to light.
His feet are placed in pathways true,
He has resolved to do the Right,
And wears a badge Of Heavens blue.
The drunkard comes with death like scars
And seeks to be a man again
Deserts the fields of Bacchus' wars
Enrolls himself with Murphy men.
He won't go back to living death.
No. no, until the latest breath.
He'll bless the badge of Heavens blue.
