Why Vote No a!

The reason why | think vote of
"No" should be given upon the license
question is that believe that vote for
the best interests of society. For in
stance, the town of Newton a few
years ago voted upon this question.
There was one solitary affirmative vote
and four hundred negative votes.
Does anybody believe that Newton
would be as desirable a place to live in
if the exact reverse had been true, and
one negative and four hundred affirm
ative votes had been cast On the 9th
er hand, the thousands of persons who
daily enter and leave Boston by the
Boston & Albany and Old Colony sta
tions encounter on the various streets
between those stations and their places
of business perhaps thirty licensed liq-
uor saloons. AS we walk past them
do we consider them blessings to the
neighbOrhOOd or great evils, and in
stinctively wish for their continuance
or removal 2 Such tests are practical,
and ought to control our votes, be-
cause we have no right to suppose that
the effect of licensing and withholding
license will be other than what we see
it in instances like these, under OuI
own direct, personal observation X.

The Parallels of Our Lord. B
From the Revised Version. ]

THE WHEAT AND THE TARES.
The kingdom of heaven is likened
unto man that sOwed good seed in
his field but while men slept, his enc
my came and sowed tares also among
the wheat, and went away. But when
the blade sprang up, and brought forth
fruit, then appeared the tares also.
And the servants of the householder
came and said unto him, Sir, didSt thou
not SOW good seed in thy field whence
then hath it tarcs And he said unto
them. An enemy hath done this. And
the servants say unto him, Wilt thou
then that we go and gather them up
But hc saith, Nay; lest haply while
We gather up the tares, We root up the
wheat with them. Let both grow to-
gethcr until the han vest: and i'll the
time of the harvest | will say to the
reapcrs, Gather up first the tares, and
bind them in bundles to burn them
but gather the wheat into my barn.
He that sOweth the good seed is the
Son of man and the field is the world !;
and the good seed, these are the sons
of the kingdom and the tares are the
sons of the evil one; and the enemy
that sowcd them is the devil: and the
harvest is the end of the world and
the rrapers are angels. As therefore
the tares are gathered up and burned
with fire ; 50 shall it be in the end of
the world. The Son of man shall send
forth his angels, and they shall gather
out of his kingdom all things that cause
stumbling, and them that do iniquity,
and shall east them into the furnace of
fire there shall he the weeping and
guashing of teeth. Then shall the
righteous shine forth us the sun i'll the
Kingdom of their father. He that hath
ears, let him hear Matt. l3: 24-3O,

A New York WOman'S Business
success.

An immense business success has
been reached by the prOprietress of the
largest and most respected German
daily paper i'll New York. This lady
was left IA widow with six small chill
dren and little newspaper which she
desired to sell. Only $500 was the
largest sum offered for it, Hoping to
find more generous purchaser later
on, she persuaded its editor to remain
at its head for short time, but no
one wanted the little journal. Its edi-
tor was a clever writer and iudiciOus
selecter of news, and month by month
the popularity of the little sheet grew
and grew, and at last after year or
two, she relinquished the plan of part
ing with it at all. She married the ed .
itor, but she always kept the business
of the publication under her own care,
learning by each experience how to
purchase paper with more intelligence,
employ work people, manage money,
and yet find time to watch over and
direct the education of her boys and
girls. After "A time she became rich,
fell into the habit of driving down to
her handsome and retired Office daily
ut ten o'clock, to return at three p. m.
to an elegant home, from which her ac-
complished daughters were happily
married, and from which her honored
sons went forth to homes of their own.
She has erected with her earnings one
of the handsOmest buildings in New
York. She recently gave fifty thou
sand dollars to an old ladies' home
(German) and during all these years of
prosperous toll she has never been
prosecuted and oppressed by men. In
deed they have not even desired to
rise in her path or stand i'll her way,
and she has never ceased to he lady
of high breeding and sweet womanly
sympathies. Der Stats Zeitung is the
leading German newspaper, and Der
Zeitung building is IA beautiful mOnu-
ment of wOman's capacity to do the
very best bread winning work in the
world, provided she gives her mind,
heart and enthusiasm to its accom-
plishment. This tender mother, who
must needs provide food for her young,
wrought with such materials she had
within reach, and she never cried out
To the world to ask if she might.

Thy Prayers and Thine Aims.

How often are these divorced, the
one from the other. A certain kind of
prayer is cheap enough. The praying
machines of Ihibet show us one sort,
and the formal, wOrdy prayers of
ChristcndOm are another. They differ
in the machine that is the chief Vari-
alton. Real prayer that goes up as Il
memorial before God, and so abides, is
a costly affair. COleridge pronounced
il So great Il thing, as To he one of the
highest efforts of the human spirit.
This il is that makes me turn cold to
NV very soul Into the real prayer
of faith goes thought, affection, rever-
cncc, desire deep and strong, trust,
conservation. 1t takes hold of the rea-
son, the conscience, the Sensibilities.
1t calls up what we know of God and
his promises III a grand summary, or
t;lstcns upon SOM one attribute or
spoken word, and pleads it, as if to
take denial were not to honor him
whose is the attribute and the word.
Not many prayers are answered save
through the channel of personal en-
dcavor or cooperation. A man prays
-"Thy kingdom come" suppose, and
50 far forgets what the Lord, who
Taught now W pray Stilu ludl
kingdom and the method of its coming,
rs To give himself no further concern
about the kingdom. What mistaken
prayer. Suppose the church of the
Apostolic age, or the Apostles them
selves had so behaved, and allowed
their endeavOrs i'll the behalf of the
kingdom to end with words on Bonded
knees, where had been the Apostolic
church Where the church of the
later centuries
Or, again, taught by the Lord him
self To look abroad on the whitening
fields and to pray the Lord of the har-
vest to send forth laborers into his
harvest, suppose an assembly met to 50
pray, and so utterly to forget the sig
nificance of their gathering and sup
plicatiOns as not to have the inquiry
20 around. Lord, what wilt thou have
me To doG Whom shall we separate
and send Then to retire as if they
had said, Send, only not any of us OF
our children and without an offering
To meet the cost of sending any over,
were there one so minded Did ever
anything like this happen? Prayers

structed latter-day saint, came at this

Personalities and III-Reports.

Keep clear of personalities i'll gener-
al conversation. Talk of things, Oh
iects, thoughts. The smallest minds
occupy themselves with persons.
Personalities must sometimes be
talked, because We have to learn
aud find out mems characteristics for
legitimate objects but it is to be with
confidential persons. Poor Burns
wrote and did many foolish things. but
he was wise when he wrote to a young
friend
Aye, tell your story free, off-hand
When wi 4 bosom crony;
But still keep something to yourself
You'll scarcely tell TO Ony"
DO not needlessly report i'll of others.
There are times when we are compel
led to SAY II do not think Bouncer a
true and honest man" But when there
is no need to eXpressan opinion let poor
Bouncer swagger away. Others Will
take his measure, no doubt, and save
you the trouble of Analysing him and
instructing them. And as far rs pos
sible dwell on the good side of human
beings. There are family boards where
a constant process of depreciating, as
signing motives, and cutting up char
acter goes forward. They are not
pleasant places. One who is healthy
does not wish to dine at "A dissecting
table. There is evil enough in men,
God knows. But il is not the mission
Of every young man and woman to
detail and report it all. Keep the at
mOsphere as pure as possible. and fra
grant with gentleness and charity

A Dreadful Worm.

Who has not heard of the rattlesnake
or cOpperhead ? An unexpected sight
of either of these reptiles will make
even the lords of creation recOil. But
there is IA species of worm found in
various parts of this land, which con
veys poison of ii nature SO deadly
that when compared with it the venom
of the rattlesnake is harmless. To
guard our readers against this foe of
human kind is the object of the pres
ent communication. This worm varies
much in size 1t is frequently an inch
through but as it is rarely seen eX-
cept when cOiled, its length can hard
" be comjectured. 1t is of a dull lead
color, and generally lives near spring,
Or small stream of water, and bites
the unfortunate people who are i'll the
habit of going there to drink. The
brute creation it never molests. They
avoid it with the same instinct that
teaches the animals of Peru to shun
the deadly Cova when it waylays their
pathway. The symptoms of its bite
are terrible. The eyes of the patient
become red and fiery, his tongue is
swollen to an immoderate size, and
ODsJIuCIS HIS ulJtIdutt. anu hClllluli
of the most horrid character quickly
follows. Sometimes, in his madness,
he attempts the destruction of his
dearest friends. If the sufferer has il
family, his weeping wife and helpless
infants are not unfrequently the objects
of his frantic fury. Such is the spell
in which his senses are bound, that no
sooner is he recovered from the paroX-
ysm of insanity occasioned by one bite.
than he seeks out his destroyer to he
bitten again. | have seen good old
father, his locks as white as snow, his
steps slow and trembling, beg i'll vain
of his only son to quit the lurking place
of the worm. My heart bled when he
turned away, for | knew the hope so
fOndly cherished, that his son would
