A New York Street Arab Sings His Way
Home Again.

"Mister, mayn't l sing in here?" in
quired an urchin as, limping through
the doorway of Madison Street saloon,
he approached the bartender.
"Sing?" gruffly replied the saloon
man. 81 don't care" he continued,
with sheer, and turning to customer,
ragged in dress and rough in appear
ance, he handed glass and bottle.
The boy limped to the rear of the
room, where were seated a number of
men engaged at card-playing. In APP
pearance he was a fair specimen of the
street arab. Apparently he was not
more than twelve years of age. His coat
and pants were torn, his shirt ragged
and collarless. On his feet were shoes
that in times gone by had been used by a
worldly man. His hat was full of holes,
yet beneath its torn rim there sparkled
eyes of blue and appeared face win
ming and beautiful. Leaning on table
in the apartment he began singing 30,
Where Is My Wandering Boy To-
Night in sweetest voice. The twenty
or more men in the room stopped their
talking and playing, and listened to
him. One verse he sang, another, and
still another, and his hearers continued
to listen.
Here dime, runty," said rough
looking individual, breaking the silence.
A number echoed his sentiments and
followed with similar gifts.
"Where yer from, kid?" asked one.

Temperance Items.

LUCY HOOPER, in a recent Paris let
ter, speaks of Edwin Booth as a total
abstainer, and that in spite of hereditary
faint and tendency. She says; "While
still young man he had trampled abb
solutely under foot the fierce dragon of
drink, whose breath was poisoning his
existence and blighting the fairest BIOS
SONS of his budding genius" !
AT A RECENT BANQUET given by the
Prince and Princess of Wales, at MARI
borough House, to the fishermen and
their wives, it was found that one-half
the guests were total abstainers. While
large quantities of the wine and beer
provided were left untouched, the royal
hostess was obliged to send out post
haste for more of the non-alcoholic Oev-
erages so greatly in demand. III as a

A LEARNED JUDGE in Spartanburgh,
S. c., said that probably there was no
Judge upon the bench in the State who
would not hold that any liquor that
produced intoxication was an intoxi-.
eating liquor, and that lager beer would
produce this effect, and he thereupon
sentenced the foreman of the Grand
Jury, who had been found guilty by al
jury of selling lager beer on Sunday at
a summer resort Kept by him, to pay a
fine of one hundred dollars and costs or
to be imprisoned two months.
THE LONDON Methodist says: "The
publicans have fallen upon bad times.
The Temperance movement is growing;
Sunday closing is on its way; public
sentiment in favor of Temperance is
increasing; statesmen are yielding to
that sentiment, and adapting their in
dividual policy accordingly; the antici-
patton of legislation in favor of So

trade " with concern. But the deepest
cut of all is, that the publicans' friends
are turning against them"

spring and pulled her handkerchief
from her pocket in preparation for q
buried on his knees oh, joyP dress
ed in the ordinary working-clothes in
which she always liked to see him.
Her first impulse to make up was re-
strained by the fear that he might be
Sarah's bethrothed. She swallowed a
big lump in her throat and tried to look
very Indifferent, as she said:
Good evening, Mr. Redpath Per-
haps | may congratulate youP"
mo you mayn't either, I've got
nothing to be congratulated for, except
that | made scare-crow out of my
thirty-dollar suit. But it don't seem to
be a success even there. The crows are
as hard on the corn rs ever"
This time the tears came very quickly
to Marv's eyes. She knelt down on the
grass beside him, and said softly:
John, please give me my thimble
again?"
The iron thimble was fished from the
depths of Johns pockets and handed
to Mary in silence.
The momentary stiffness was again
broken by the same pleading voice:
John, please give me my tin needle
case"
The needle-case changed owners in
the same mechanical fashion"
"You look very nice now, John. You
look like man, you know, that one
could love and look up to" said Mary,
at the same time pushing back the
SLOUGH hat and peering closely in his
eyes.
MARY, will you take the gold ring
nowP"
Mary held out her finger and John
slipped the gold ring on just as he had
slipped on the brass ring ten years ago.
''Mary, may kiss you nowP"
She only nodded her head, and John
was timid, after certain adventure the
day before.
"You won't treat me like you did the
other day, Mary, if kiss you?"
Mary laughed, a little confused, as
she answered: Il daren't now, you
know; we're engaged. "
1t was a long while before she made

When they walked home past the
cornfield in which the crows were still
busy getting their late supper, in spite
of the fashionable scare in the center
of the field, John, remembering that
other fellow, who had caused him a
sleepless night, wanted to know who
his formal rival WAS
"He is John Redpath, the farmer,
and want you to be good to him, ="
said Mary, archly. "The fellow
didn't like is Mr.. Redpath, the dandy,
who isn't even successful as scare
crow, you see. Is it any wonder
would have him.
Both laughed, and were happy.

Teaching Temperance in the Public
Schools,

Here are few suggestions from no
less a body than the London School
Board, which were issued in 1877 as q
letter OF instruction to the teachers of
that greatest of cities, relative to Tenn
perance teaching in the city schools.
The circular reads, however, as if it had
been sent out by the w. G. T. u, and
is in the main applicable to every pub
lie school in America.
l Whenever the opening lesson of the day
from the Holy Scriptures-suppies suitable
opportunity for the occasional instruction of
children, by examples, warnings cautions and
admonitions in the principles of the virtue of
Temperance, the teachers should avail them
selves of it.
The reading-books and copy-books for use
in schools might be rendered largely helpful
in this direction. Such reading-books and
copy-books are now to be had and might well
be placed on the requisition form.
The picture-cards diagrams and wall
papers illustrative of the subjects of indus
try, sobriety and thrift may be beneticially
exhibited as part of the wall furniture Of
schools.
Songs and hymns, at the selection of the
teacher, on the subject of Temperance,
should be incorporated with the musical ex-
erciseS of the school,
That the board be recommended to grant,
free OF charge, the use of their schools after
the usual school hours, for illustrated lectures.
by well-qualitied lecturers, to children attend
ing the schools, but that the attendance at
such lectures be purely voluntary on the part
OF both teachers and scholars, the lecturers
and their subjects in each case to receive the
approval of the School Management Com
mittee.
That the Works Committee be instructed
10 supply drinking fountain in the play
ground of every Board School.
The board has recently re-issued this
circular, showing thereby that the in
tervening period of six years has not
changed opinion as to the necessity of
this effort. and perhaps also the fact
that the instructions have not been as
thoroughly followed as was desired.
We learn, however, from the Temper
ance Record that one lecturer of the
National Temperance League has de-
livered in the Board Schools no less than
$50 lectures within the past three years.
Still another pleasant circumstance to
note is the fact that one of the London
teachers standing very high in the pro-
fession, but never at all interested in
the Temperance question, was led to an
investigation of the matter by finding
that 240 of his 800 boys had become
total abstainers. 1t is recorded as re-
suit of his studies that she and all his
house" became pledged abStainers.

MISS Emma?

Speaking of Jersey justice, a Rah-
way lawyer declares that New Jersey
deserves all the high praise she gets
for prompt, answering and merciless
Justice to law-breakers. Criminals are
in that State condemned and punished
without difficulty or delay. This is all
the more remarkable, he thinks, when
it is considered that at the ends of New
Jersey lie the two largest cities of the
new world-New York and Philadel-
phia. However, it is to this very fact
that Jersey justice owes its origin.
''For half century," he explains,
philadelphia and New York have sent
marauders into New Jersey. Either as
registering excursionists, lazy tramps,
or professional thieves, they come
ready for mischief. When caught they
are almost always without money or
friends to hinder punishment, the just
severity of which there is nobody but
themselves to dispute. These cases
long ago Infatuated our courts to
celebrity, and that is what led to the
establishment of the undetermined Jer-
sey justice. | don't know that our Of
ficials are better men than the average
in other States, but it is certain that
they do better work from habit. IN.

spend one dollar that his darling Edith
might have a birthday gift. Hence
forth his money should be given to his
wife and children. He went to his
store, and writing a note to his wife,
inclosed in it a five-dollar bill, and call

Edith's mother handed her a beautiful

"Oh, mamma, it's perfectly lovely.

That was all Edith said, but her father
knew by the tears which sprang to her
eyes, by the close clasp of her arms
around his neck, by the kisses she
rained upon his face, that she was the
happiest little girl in the world, and
that his birthday present of Temper

PUT DOWN THE BRAKES, !

~. -
No matter how well the track is laid
NO matter how strong the engine is made
"hen you find it running on downward
grade,
Put down the brakes.
II the demon drink has entered your soul;
And his power is getting beyond your CONTROL
And dragging you down to Il terrible goal,
Put down the brakes.
Remember the adage: Don't tri1e with fire;"
temptation you know is always liar;
IL you want to crush out the burning desire,
Put down the brakes.
Are you running in debt by living too fast?
DO you look back with shame on proitless
past,
And feel that your ruin is coming at last,
Put down the brakes.
Whether for honor, or knowledge, or gain,
You are fast wearing out your body and
brain,
Till nature no longer can bear the strain,
Put down the brakes.
