Ignorant Teachers,

Whenever an editor runs out Of
other topics to descant upon, he treats
us to an essay upon the ''alarming
prevalence of divorce" And yet no
man has ever succeeded in showing
where the alarm comes in or what
there really is to be alarmed about.
Suppose you change the divorce
laws so as to compel a woman to con-
tinue living with drunken husband.
What is the result? You condemn
an innocent human being to life of
horror and torture worse than IS en-
dured by any felon in the peniten-
tiary. And what good do you do to
her children, to the drunkard himself
or to any human being?-Columbus

THE Ministerial Association of the
Gallipolis District met last week in
Gallipolis. The following are the res
olutions on temperance:
Whereas the Liquor Traffic has
come to be the greatest source of
crime and misery in our country, and
the chief bar to all moral and religi-
Gus reform, we re-affirm our convic-
tions that its total abolition is de-
manded by every consideration of pur-
.ity and prosperity.
We hail with delight the unprece-
dented progress of the temperance
sentiment Of these times, and we re-
gard the total legal prohibition of the
traffic as the only regulation, or reme-
dy, that will effectually modify the
encroachments of this mammoth NOR
al evil and fully satisfy the demands
of our times.
We are uncompromisingly opposed
to the removal Of the constitutional
bar against license, and we are not in
favor of the proposed amendment to
the constitution disposing Of the
whole matter by placing it in the
hands Of the Legislature, for the same
reasons. Believing as we do that its
license is then made possible, and that
taxation merely, is compromise that
will in effect only postpone the victo-
ry of total prohibition.
And further; we as ministers main
tain it to be our right and duty to use
our utmost influence not only for
temperance in general but for the
success of the second propositiom'' to
so amend the constitution that the
traffic shall be forever-prohibited.

A GOOD many divorces are being
applied for by women in almost
every section of the country, because
their husbands have brutishly become
habituated to strong drink. How
very strange that men, formed
somewhat after the image of God
$50 the book reads) should allow
themselves to become so depraved in
appetite. and yet claim that their
wives are bound to respect them!
Whiskey is causing more separa-
tion between man and wife than all
other evils combined; it is causing
more tears, more cruelty, more
widows and orphans, more crime,
more misery, it causes more deformed
neutrality-suspicious. puny, sickly
vicious, weak and idiotic-than all
the causes known to afflict mankind;
but whisky is nevertheless able to
rule the world. 1t is king indeed.
Its behests are submitted to as a
matter of course. The majority we
fear would count it a lack of virtue
to strike the monster down. 1t must
yet run its course till its victims are
numbered by the millions. Perhaps
there will come a time in the worlds
economy that it must yield to better
views.-MarySUille Tribune.

IT consists off two pieces of hard
wood, each about ten inches long,

Alexander was on trial for murder, at
Easton, Pa. During the progress of the
trial, six of the jurors, accompanied by a

text "Thou shalt not kill" The jurors
listened very closely to the eloquent dis
discourse. then went straightway and
rendered verdict of guilty" just as
they would have done, perhaps, had they
not attended church. Yet the attorneys
have asked for new trial, and will prob
ably get it, on the ground that the jurors
were influenced by the minister. 1t is
not conclusive to the safety of a MUIR
