THE scouRGE OF CENTURIES.
BY B. s. RUSSELL.

Away up among the Catskill mountains is
drunken sot who, in his palmy days, was {.
senator
Southwark, on the Chesapeake strands, is
drunkard's grave that holds the remains of
brilliant young man, the son of Methodist
preacher, for whom in our boyish enthusiasm,
we pictured glorious future.
At Marlton, in this state, | saw tavern
keeper seventeen years ago take the last ten
cents from the most hideous wreck of man
that have ever seen. His hand shook like
palsy; his eyes were the color of red taaanel,
his skin was scarcely less lighter. His rotten,
dirty clothes were past description, while his
hair stood ont like bristles, and yet that hair
covered one of the brainiest heads N Bur
lington county and he was once reckoned
among the greatest educators in New Jersey.
Wine was mocker and social glasses and
party temptations started him down the in
clined plain of joyless prodigality. He never
mingled with drunkardss and seemed to show
dignity in misfortune / thought as gazed
on that big, broad forehead How hath the
mighty fallen f"
Intemperance has robbed every generation
of men who might have become immortal. 1t
has driven genius away from thespring where
Homer drank and Virgil slaked his thirst
1t enters our colleges and asks for its valedic-
torians. 1t crosses the Threshold of the rich,
the cultured and good and thrOttles their first
born and binds the sons Of premise. 1t
floods its ilgotten gains in the Legislatures
and defeats justice. 1t puts iis gag on the press
and cries silence to the pulpit Mast morally
right, righteousness, religion.and philanthropy
stand back while the demon rum vanquishes
the wsrld? No, 1.-THE war is inevitable,
and let it come. We repeat 1T, let II come"

WHY HE VOTED PROHIBITION

A pathetlo reason for a vote was given re-
Gently by voter in Ohio, who supported the
second amendment. He said: ssMy main
reason for voting for prohibition was purely
personal one. AS my fellow-citizens know.
/ am the victim of an uncomfortable appetite
for strong drink. / have repeatedly at
tempted to break the letters that bind me,
but have as often failed. The temptations
thrown in my way by the numerous saloons
that abound are too much for me- and l now
find myself growing old, broken down in
health, self-confdence, self-respect, and poor,
from the effects of the accursed habit that
enslayed me. The bright promise of my
youth is blighted, and l am conscious that
my family and friends regard me more with
pity than any other sentiment. I have no
hope for the future, save in the removal
from my path of the temptations that
now beset me at every street corner As
drowning man catches at a straw, seized
hold of the second amendment, in the hope
that if it carried it might deliver me from
bondage" The poor man had scriptural
reasons for hoping that he would have the
sympathy of all christian men (Hab. 2 49,
-EJchdnge.
The above is one of thousands who are
seeking deliveranee at the ballot-box from
bondage worse than slavery. These poor
bition party as the only human means of de-
liveranee. High license will not save them,
as it only increases the price of drinks; but
what hope have they of success when they see
protesting christians electioneering at the
polls and joining hands with the rumseIer to
defeat prohibition
A fearful responsibility rests upon those
who sacrifice principle to party preference.
The Prohibition party stands to-day where
the Abolition party stood a few years since.
The Abolitionists were stoned and threatened
with DEATH hoping thereby to crush out this
divine principle: but God was in it, aad no
human power could resist its onward mach
The cloud No larger than mans hand at
the beginning soon spread over the land. and
the emancipation Of the poor slave was the
result of human effort, by the blessing of
God. So the manufacture and sale of intSxi-
eating drinks as beverage will crown, the
efforts. of the Prohibition party in the near
future.
Thank God, the prohibition wave is fast
surging over our land. State after state is
falling into line, and the time is fast coming
when our government treasury viii not have
its revenue of millions from the whiskeY tax,
stained with blood money. May God hasten
the day when this stain shall be wiped out

CURING A BAD MEMORY.

Your memory is bad, perhaps, but l can
tell you two secrets that will cure the worst
memory. One is to read a subject when you
are strongly interested The other is not only
to read, but think. When you have read a
paragraph or page, stop-close the book
and try to remember the ideas on that page,
and not only recall them vaguely to your
mind, but put them into words and speak
them out. Faithfully follow these two rules
and you will have the golden keys of know
ledge. Besides inattentive reading, there are
other things injurious to memory. One is the
habit of skimming over newspapers, all in a
confused tumble, never to be thought of again,
thus cultivating habit of careless reading
hard to break. Another is the reading OF
trashy novels. Nothing is SO fatal to reading
with profit as the habit of running through
story after story, and forgetting them as soon
as read. 1 know gray-haired woman, life
long lover of books, who sadly declared that
her mind had been ruined by such reading

KANSAS.

Kansas is remarkable state. It was she
who in the very plenitude of the slave
power lifted up her arm first of ali to strike
it, and within her borders the first victory of
freedom was gained At the present time she
is engaged in hand to hand struggle with
the whiskey power, and actually stands in the
van of the prohibition army in her deter
mined attacks upon the foe. Kansas is chiefly
settled by the descendants of New England,
and upon her brood prairies they seem to have
breathed in an unusual amount of heroism,
pluck and love of liberty. Far-sighted
statesmen have predicted great things for this
state. Here what they say
Kansas, sir, is the Cinderella of the
American family. She will live to defend,
protect and sustain you."-W. FL. Sescard

san measure can be drawn into separate
party organization

san measure can be drawn into separate
party organization.
If each of the old parties shall ignore this
subject both in their platform and candidate
it may be wise for Prohibitionists to nomi-
nate separate candidates for president and
ce-president with this understanding that
when one of the parties has been forced, by
such separate voting, to adopt our cause,
these voters are ready to fall in and vote with
that party Otherwise, effort on that line is
time, money and labor wasted. Vote separ-
ately every time when both the parties force
you to IL; vote with either party through
which you can gain your end. Do this or
the plea of making this a permanent issue is
not sustained. To do this and gain somet1ting
is certainly more consistent and better in
keeping with large professions of devotion to
this cause than to adopt impracticable plans,
waste time, labor and money and gain moth
