How IlusIneSA IL Now Done-The Great
Army OF DFnmmerN.

The old methods Of doing business are
fast passing away, and whether the change
is for the better OF not, those who wish to
achieve success must abandon the old and
fall into the new. A revolution has been
wrought in such matters, and the old
methods are daily becoming absolotr. One
hundred thousand commercial agents or
drummers are now employed to travel the
length and breath Of the country in the
interest Of their employers, and in this fast
age no one, unless he holds u monopoly Of
some good thing, eau afford to wait for
customers, 30 great is the competition in
every line or branch oi business. As per.
tinent to this subject, the Boston Pot says:
THE ways Of traffic are not the old
ways; wooden ships are going ont Of date,
aud sailing Tessels are giving place to
steam; currency il superseded by com
merciaI credits; the cable and telegraph
have brought markets close together; rail
roads derive their freight profits from the
pertectness OF their terminai iSCilities
men buy and sell by sample before pro,
ducts and manufactured stocks are moved
prices and ra;ea change Oitenrr now in q
LAY than they used to do in u week or d
month; everything tends 10 economy o.

Temperance During the Past Fifty Years


From a Letter by William f. Dodge
But those OF us who can 90 back to the
very commencement Of the temperance
reformation know that in all parts of the
country outside our large cities there has
been most remarkable change in the
habits and customs Of the great mass Of
the people as the result of the temperance
efforts. Then there was hardly a family
of any standing that sat down to dine
without some kind of intoxicating drink
on the table. Men were hardly expected
TO work on the farm or in the shop with
out their regular allowance 1t was kept
IN every country store; was used at all
public gatherings, and, in my remem-
brance, was passed among the attendants
at funerals AS you sat down at the hotel
tables every second man had his bottle or
glass OF some kind Of intoxicating drink.
Now we know that to great extent this
IS changed. Go where you will through
out the country, sit down to the tables of
the great majority of our families, and you
will find no kind of intoxicating drinks.
Sit down in our hotels on the great lines
OF travel and you will not see one person
using strong drink, where, fifty years ago,
you would have seen ten. Had it not
been for the vast increase Of population
from the Old World during the past half
century the results of the great temper
ance movement would have been more
apparent. But those of us who have
watched it feel that its progress has been
most encouraging. | have Just returned
from an absence OF two months, in which
| have travelled through ten States and
over 1900 miles, and | have seen less
drinking and fewer drunkards than ever
before in the same time and distance.
