MISS wILLARD's LECTURE.

Congress Square church held q large congre-
cation last evening to listen to lecture on
Personal Liberty, by Miss Frances e. Willard !;
the President of the National Womans Christ
ian Temperance Union. The usual devotional
Rev. Henry Blanchard
Miss Willard began her address by referring
to the action of the liquor dealers of Wiscon-
sin, who organized an association under the
title of the Personal Liberty League of Amer
ica." 1t was her object to show what true per-
sonal liberty is. Quoting from the New Tes-
lament the words, "The truth shall make you
free," aud "where the spirit of the Lord is,
there is liberty" She showed that liberty de-
sired by the Wisconsin liquor dealers was far
different thing from the liberty of the disciple
of Christ There can only be liberty, when
men are governed by law. If an individual
could live like Robinson iCrusoe he might do
exactly as he pleased, but in society there
must be concession and service. The liberty
of the individual must be subordinate to the
liberty of the nation.
She then showed how the home, the school,
the social circle, the church, all teach the in
dividual to regard the rights of others and to
know the value of government by law. By
way of illustration, she gave au imaginary con-
versation between citizen of the Republic
pueGerman emigrant. He might think in
coming to free country he could do as he
pleased about clothing, and business and house
but he would find that he could not Law
would enforce its regulations. The liberty of
the individual must be determined by the we'll
being of society.
Prohibition is only one means which society
uses to protect itself. She gave some account
also of her journeys and conversations in many
of the Western states. In some of these, there
is high license craze Against this, Christ
ian women should utter their protest. In
Washington Territory she had met judgewho
thought, even though he used liQusr himself
that no Christian should aim at anything less
than prohibition. She hoped to see this in
Maine put into constitutional amendment.
Prohibition must have time to accomplish this.
Like education, like civilization, like Christi
anity, it must have time to grow. At present
it is the youngest agency of God to redeem the
world.
The West looks ever to Maine. May she
keep her standard high. May the words of de
Tocquevlle to Sumner be always remembered.
"Lie is neither for pleasure nor pain; it is a Sc
rious thing to be entered upon with courage
and self-sacrifce."

ADVICE TO MoTHERs-MRs. WINsLow's
SOOTHING SYRUP should always be- used when
children are cutting teeth. 1t relieves the lit
tie sufferer at once; it produces natural, quiet
sleep by relieving the child from pain, and the
little cherub awakes as "bright as button"
1t is very pleasant to taste. 1t soothes the
child, softens the gums. allays all pain, relieves
wind, regulates the bowels, and is the best
known remedy for diarrhea, whether arising
from teething or other causes. Twenty-Five

thorough repairing if it is to be used for dane
ing. 1t is understood the settees will not be

outrage on the public to sell six seats on
settse which only holds five people Of the
average size. 1t would also be we'll to remove
the gas brackets at the rear of the stage, as
foot-lights should be employed altogether to

st. Louis Post Dispatch.
A very fair joke has been going the rounds
of the press of late to the effect that Ameri-
can dried apples are being exported to China
and Japan, and that Americans is thus
''helping to swell the population of the Ori-
ent." This is fun, but the facts of which it
is an index are even more instructing than
the joke itself. During the past year about
3,500000 pounds of dried apples have been
sent abroad from this country, some going
to China, India, southern Africa,
Australia and also to England
and Scotland, where trade has
been established some years. Four-fifths
of those exported go from the port of New
York. The exporters gather them up from
all parts of the country, the best coming
from North Carolina, where they seem to
have a superior flavor and to be better dried.
This may be treason to the Western Reserve,
whose dried apples are famous, but it is new
ertheless the fact. Few apples are now
dried by the old process, the more recent
system of evaporation producing results
much more satisfactory. A curious fact is
developed in this connection, that the cores
parinss and other refuse of the evaporating
establishments are purchased in France, it is
supposed for use in changing the favor of
certain brands of wines.

irving at Bulun July 3. They took in the
stores left by Engineer Melville and fitted
out four parties with native boats. Lieu

from day to day, the difficulties experienced
from shoal water and the impossibility of
procuring native guides. They were fire.
quently compelled to wade and drag their
boats for miles On the morning of Aug. 81
they reached Matrai, visited the tomb of
Lieutenant Commander DeLong and
companions, and put four heavy
bolts through the standard
and arms of the cross, in accordance with the
request of Engineer Melville. Thence the
search was continued to the northward. and
on the 31st they reached the spot where
Lieutenant-commander DeLong and party
were found. A search was made to see if
anything remained hidden under the snow;
nothing of consequence, however, was found.
Returning the party reached Bulun on the
10th of September. Here the Jeanette
party was placed in charge of Ensign Hunt.
The search was continued by Lieutenant
Harber and Mr. Schultz on seds. Lieuten-
ant Earber then gives an account of the
points visited and the distances travelled,
notes their return to Bulun on the 9th of No
vember and adds: Il regret to state that no
trace of Chipp or his party, or his boat, has
been seen by us or any of the natives. 1t is
probable that l communicated with every
native Of the delta, and with those who were

A few days ago countryman who was
riding up Ninth street, New York, gave the
conductor of the car dollar from which TO
take his fare At the moment the dollar
was given to the conductor the car ap-
preached Willow street, where locomotives
cross Ninth street every few moments. In
order to make sure that the track is clear
the conductors of the line alight from their
cars and run ahead and signal to the drivers
whether to approach or stop. As the dollar
was dropped into the conductors hand he
suddenly wheeled around, ran to the door
and jumped upon the street, followed by
the big, burly countryman, who roughly
seized him by the coat collar and in a loud
voice exclaimed: you goldurned scoun-
