The Reciprocator thresher will win
every premium in contests this fall; and
while it sells for the same price, is
worth 100 per cent more than any other
machine, in durability, economy in saw

can prove it by the operation of the ma

Te,Operance Notes.

Eighty per cent. of the crimes COM
mitted are chargeable to the effects OF
liquor.
John B. Cough, being asked the other
day if he noted any improvement for man
kind in the matter Of intemperance, re-
piled: "Why. yes; every way; things
are nothing like so bad as they were
when I was a boy, and they arc going to
be better yet"
If q man who has been drinking for
number of years wants to know what
effect it has on his system, let him stick
a small hollow tube about the size OF
darning needle into his flesh, and then
hold lighted match to it, until the gas
which passes out from the tube ignites'
he will find that it burns blue blaze
which will have q sulphurous odor.
In localities where the decision OF the
question OF licensing the liquor traffic is,
either entirely or in part, subject to petit
ton, the temperance people will worry
the liquor men, and will be assisted in
gaining their point by giving notice that
they will publish the names of petition
crs for saloons, as well as Of those who
may 90 on the bonds Of saloon keepers.
Wherever this plan has been tried it has
worked well. it prevents underhand
work by saloonists, and compcls every
man to show where he stands.
1t appears to rs as slnSlarly unseem-
ly. and even iniquitous, that the general
government should grant licenses to sell
liquor in States which have prohibited
that sale. The Federal license does not
enable those who take it to sell against
.hc laws of State, but the licensed
persons take their chance Of being able
TO circumvcnt or defeat the law OF the
State, and at any rate it sounds we'll for
the distillers and brewers to be able to
show that large number of these con-
tingcnt licenses arc taken out; and they
and the papers that advocate the liquor
traffic, never condesccnd to State that

such crime as treason asaint the Fcder-

John Newton and His Bible.

The Rev. John Newton, who was
minister Of st. Mary Woolnoth in Lon
don. spent the former part of his life
at sea. lie was, as he tells us himself,
great sinner. From his youth up he
had often had convictions, but never
deeply felt his danger till in home
ward voyage his life hung in doubt
before him. The vessel was in such
peril that every hour seemed as if it
would lie the last. The supposed near
ness of eternity filled his mind with a
solemn dread. TO die happily, he felt
he had a need, great need, he knew
not of what. Filled with trouble, he
remembered that his mother was a
great reader of the Bible, and that she
often spoke with delight of what she
found in ir. He remembered also that
she had given him Bible when he
went to sea, with entreaties that he
would often read it. He thought he
must still have the Bible somewhere,
but he could hardly be certain.
Down he went to his chest, and at
the very bottom of it found his moth
er's kind but long-neglected gift. He
opened it with eagerness, and the first
words that caught his eye were these
IF ye then, being evil, know how to
give good gifts unto your children,
how much more shall your heavenly
Father give the Holy Spirit to them
that ask him I" It came home to his

that he wanted. He resolved to cry
earnestly for this gift. He did cry,

The School and the Saloon.

The National Journal Of Education
says: "Outside of few favored dis.
tricts, ne Boston boy can 60 to school
without passing liquor-saloons enough
to destroy the morality of every pupil
in that particular district. The very
heart of New Boston on any summer
night is pandemonium of liquor sell-
ing, the streets swarming with noisy
men and vicious women, with multitudes
Of half-grown boys and girls looking on.
Boston expends million and half Of
dollars annually to school the children
and, in spite of certain defects incident
to graded school-life in a great city:
these educational opportunities are not
gu. passed by any community on the con-
tinent. There is no such concentrated
force for practical morality among these
four hundred thousand people as the
public school system as now han
died, and henceforth public instruction
will be given on the effects of alcoholic
stimulants. Yet with strange inconsis-
tcncy the same city government thrusts
vile den of pollution into the face Of
every school child, and seems to mako
no effort to keep these children off the
streets rccking With drunkenness and
lewdness, an Il resounding with profanity.
