At a recent meeting Of the British
National Temperance League, held
at the Mansion House, and presided
over by the Lord Mayor Of London,
it was stated that temperance
branches have been formed in the
army in a large number ofregiments,
brigades and depots, and that the
number of teetotalers in the service
was about 10000, of whom 5000
were in India, In the navy the
progress Of the cause is equally sat
isfactory. Seven years ago there
were only twenty-four Temperance
branches In the navy but now
there is one in almost every com
missioned ship In the service, and
more than 1000 Of tho men In the
navy are registered Gbstainers,
while Of the 1000 boys in training
for the service, more than half are
pledged to total abstinence. Ad-
miral Sir William King Hall, who
addressed the meeting. said that he
took the pledge about eighteen years
ago, and that he believed there were
now about 10000 abstainers, pledg-
ed and unpledged, in the navy

Farm and Household
The Cost Of SUGAR.

The following is from a late state.
ment of the Commissioner of the
national department Of agriculture
We have paid since the discovery
of gold in California more money
out Of the country for sugar, than
has been dug Of the precious metal
in our own country. Since the dis
covery of gold we have dug ont of
the ground SI,70O,O00,OO0-a huge
sum indeed; but in the same period
of years we paid away SL,800,000,000
for sugar, almost entirely raised out
the United States. Our annual sQ-
gar import would require five YES
sells every day, each vessel of 500
tons burden, to be landing sugar at
our wharves the whole year round.
IF you would put the sugar we con
sumo every year in trains Of cars
they would extend from New York
far beyond Chicago.
I have attempted to make this bU-
reau assist the people to create su-
gar Here you. see around you su-
gar we have made in this bureau,
and are making it every day-some
from cornstalks, some from sorghum
cane. The beet root sugar manu-
factory does not seem to bea success
in America. There are four OF five
mills in the country working upon
it, and one at Wilmington, Del, win
be a succl SIS, I think; but the Ameri-
can people do not like to have them
selves and their children get down
among the beets and pull out the
weeds. They ike that kind Of farm
ing that sits on the reaping machine
and drives the horse, with an UNI
brella over their heads, through the
high stalks. We can make sugar
here ont of cane. Here is a man
who has Just come in to see me from
Cincinnati, whose business is to
make tools for cutting and manu-
featuring sorghum cane, He says
the business has so increased that
he has not got a tool left on the
premises, his whole manufacture be-
ing sold. In the State where I live,
Minnesota, sugar manufactures are
starting up in every direction.

SCUM Carolina.

Inspiriting letters from South Car.
olina tell Of good work done by the
temperance women of the Palmetto
State, in doubling the price of L.
cense.
One Of these says, "Our petition
went to the Legislature wrapped in
a small flag of blue satin, with the
palmetto and crescent handsomely
embroidered upon it, and under
meath these words "It is the wom-
o en- Of Carolina who ask protection
for their homes and loved ones"
Everything was done to prevent
an increase in the price Of licenses.
Lobbyists went up from Charleston,
and money was freely spent, but
public opinion is now thoroughly
aroused in the State, and all plots
against US failed"
This is from a lady of high social
position in Charleston, who also
says 81 have a large cotton claim
of $50, 900, and if I ever get it we
viii have Prohibition in South Car
olina sure" Still another grand
Southern woman writes 81 am
getting sick of parties, and we are
longing here for q combination Of
the best elements Of both parties
to form one purer and better than
either-one not held together by
barrel hoops" This sentiment from
such a source is significant indeed.

On the Subject Of Roads.

The public roads Of a district show the
spirit and enterprise Of the people in thl
district to q certain extent and all viii
admit that good public roads add to the
value Of the land as much, if not more
than anything Of equal cost. 4 bad road
means q small load with great wear and
tear to wagon and team, and bad reads aTe
the complaint generally. Why? First
they are badly drained and not enough
work done on them; second, there is but
little thought given to making SOads aud
the work is often done late IN the fall
third, men plOw and scrape more than there
is any need of, and make . narrow, poor
road when they get. through. 1t is cheaper
to make a good wide road when the land
viii permit, than narrow one, from the
fact that in making wide one you simply
bring the dirt from the bitches upon the
road bed, which should never eplOwed up
OF disturbed. \ public road should be 80
feet from outside 20 outside Of bitches,
highest in the center and curving gradually
to the outside of the bitches. The road
bed THAT is the part between the inside of
the ditchcsl should be . feet wide. The
bitches should be feet wide and one foot
deep on the outside, and deeper, if neces-
saTy, with sufficient grade to draw Off the
water, otherwise there viii be a bad, mud
dy road. Now with such q road The bed is
solid, and the soil scraped on top viii soon
pack and become hard. There is no danger
in being tipped over, and travel is not
obliged to follow in a single rut as it must
in a narrow road. Dry roads mean good
ditcEes. To fill up mud holes without
draining is simply putting in more dirt to
make more mud.

What Pushes our Cause.

lish an extract from the letter Of
one Brother Of the n. C. T. .. be-
cause we want to show what makes
our cause prosper He says:
oI work at my trade-harness
making-and support my little fami-
". I have bought me a home, n1y
little Murphy home, which is the
harness shop, Office Of the Secretary
of the Ohio Q. T. T., and place where
We reside. Brother Murphy has
been here and sat in our old rocking
chair. This home cost me $500, and
1 am paying 500 a year on it, and
spending S65 to S85 a year for the
temperance work, besides all my
work for which Ireceive no compen-
sation. But we must make sacri-
fees if we expect the cause to pros
per"
It is just such sacrifices that the
noble men and women are making
all over this land, the earnest zeal,
the burning enthusiasm and steady
faith in God, that keeps the altar fires
burning. Some of the letters that
come to us are like blessed evangels
of this burning love for humanity
that is nesting down in the heart Of
this nineteenth century.-[H. W.

Parrots.

Parrots are so very disagreeable to most
people who count themselves well regulat-
ed that these probably have no idea how
many Of the sduawIling birds are imported
into the country for sale. Thousands are
disposed of annually. and the demand is
said to be growing. In the large cities, like
Baltimore. New York. Philadelphia and
New Orleans, they find q ready market, and
also in many of the minor towns. New
England is reputed to have a prejudice
against parrots which is hardly eouaIled
by any other section.
The people Of the Southern states gener-
alIvlike them moro than those Of the North
crn states do. but they are flr greater favor
ties with foreigners. as a rule, than thev
are with Americans. The best. or least bad.

rhc Hoy and the Procession.

What would a procession bewithOut the
attending escort? Did you ever see n pro-
cession with no boys leading the advance
or following along by the side oft? Never,
unless it was q funeral procession. But
there is no other procession that he doesn't
take stock in, His proudest position is
right alongside of the drum major, and he
would feel that a kick from that gorgeous
parsonage or a thump from his staff with
the big, gilded knob, would be the highest
honor he could receive. The next most
desirable position is next TO the man who
blows the bass-drum, which he will hold
for squares at the imminent risk of having
his brains knocked out by the big drum
stick. And You can't tire the boys out
either, no matter how protracted the march
may be. 4 few may lag along the line,
cheerfulIy tripping up to soldier now and
then, but their places are quietly filled up
at the head of the column. There they go,
some white, some black, some barelOOted,
some without Jackets and others barehead-
ed. They are iTepressible, and it doesn't
do any good for the marshal to shake his
sword at them. and order them away, or
for policemen to threaten. They are the
self-apointUd advance guard Of the process
sion, and cannot be discharged or dispersed.
