REFUSING WINE WITH
WASHINGTON.

In these days no weIl-bred person
shows surprise when anyone refuses
wine. 1t is only the vulgar and un-
refined who significantly lift their
eyebrows or make sneering remarks
because a comrade shows his temper
ance principles. Perhaps this has
always been true. At any rate the
following clipping from the Little
Christian shows that Washington
was as gentlemanly as was great.
Towards the close of the Revolution
ary War an officer in the army had
occasion to transact some business
with General Washington, and re-
paired to Philadelphia for that pur-
pose. Before leaving he received an
invitation to dine with the General,
and, accepting, found himself in
company with many distinguished
guests, among whom he preserved a
modest demeanor, taking but little
part in the conversation. Before the
close of the dinner General Washing
ton, calling him by name, requested
him to drink a glass of wine with
him. "Will you have the goodness
to excuse me. General?" replied the
officer. 81 have made it rule new
er to drink wine." All eyes were
instantly upon the young officer with
surprise and indignation-mayhap a
few with approval. That a person
should be so unsocial and so mean
as never to drink wine was too bad ;
but that he should abstain from it on
an occasion like that, and when
offered to him by Washington him
self was intolerable. Washington at
once saw the feeling of his guests,
and promptly addressed them "Gen-
tlemen," said he, ''our friend is
right; / do not wish any of my
guests to partake of anything against
their inclination and certainly do
not wish them to violate any estab-
lished princi in social intercourse
with me. l honor my friend for his
frankness, for his consistency in thus
adherimg to an established rule
which could never do any of US harm
if we adopted it,"

OUR SUNDAY MORNINGS.

Sunday should be the brightest
and best day of the week, when the
specks of rust can be cleaned from
our moral armor and our weapons
FURNISHED for the work that is before
them day for pure thoughts, for
high resolves, for the keenest and
most delightful exercises of the in
tellect, as well as of the even nobler
powers of the soul a day full of ac-
tive deed-doing, with every faculty
in fine and clear working order.
Much can be accomplished on Sun
day in the way of practical useful
ness to our fellowmen, our ''neigh-
bors," which the business engage
ments and cares of the weekdays do
not permit. OF all days this sweet,
joyous Seventh is the last to be vast
ed, to be dozed away in thick, slug
gish legarthy, which not only devours
time itself, but clogs the energies OF
mind and body till nightfall. In the
silvery, pure hours of the morning,
while the day is unshadowed by the
cares and passions, the little envies
and worries that gather about the
fairest human lives. when hnrt minds
have been soothed by the balm OF
sleep, and the tired body refreshed
and strengthened for good work
then let us be wide awake, with eyes
sparkling and lungs filed full with
that sweet, sun bathed air which
only the early hours know. The
birds are awake and all futterine
and singing with the joy of new life
every Sunday morning. Can we no
be sparrows for awhile p Willis B
| Allen.

HEAVEN ON THE SHELF.-As John
Elliot was once calling on merchant
he saw in the counting-room ledgers
and account books on the table,
while some religious and devotional
books were laid upon the shelf, and
remarked to his friend: - f9st
ssSir, here is earth on the table,
and heaven on the shelf. Pray do
not think so much of the table as to
altogether forget the shelf"
We are prone to put heaven on the
shelf, and SO busy ourselves With this
world that we forget the next. But
the things that are seen are tempo
raj; and how soon they must all
pass away. A little while and every
earthly delight and possession will
have passed forever beyond our
reach and there will be nothing left
for us except the unseen. and the
eternal. Let US then occupy our.
selves most with the-things that are
enduring. Let us lay up our treas.
ures where they cannot be stolen o.
destroyed let us seek first the king.
dom of God, and his Righteousness
knowing that all needed things will
be added unto us.-THe Christian.

inflated braves were becoming more
and more weary and maddened under
such goading provocation, when one
day there came sudden Interrupt
ton. After more than ordinarily
heavy meal, which had been varied
by copied draughts of fre-water,
Wo- bo-shang was taking his usual
parade along the beach. The cowed
braves shrank back, for his path was
zigzag, and the fear of him was UNI
abated. Wing-wee, a little black
headed Pottawattamie, who had just
arrived in the camp the day before,
alone held his ground. He did more !;
running out to the well-worn path
of the giant, he planted himself,
arms akimbo, right in the way of the
approaching Goliath.
"Me Wo-bo-shang! big Injun !!
much fght!'' howled the latter, glar-
ing contemptuously at the pigmy in
his path.
"Can Wo-bo-shang fight Wing
WEEP" piped the voice of him who
had now become the magnet for ev-
cry eye in the encampment.
"Ugh! ugh! me Wo-bo- shang p
roared the great bully in voice of
thunder, striding on, as if he would
trample down the audacious midget
in his path.
Bending low his little head, hard
as a rock, Wing-wee shot like bolt
straight at Wo-bo-shang's stomach.
The great giant fell like lump on
the sand, while universal shout
arose from the wigwams. Wo-bo-
shang tried to rise again and again,
only to be butted sideways, in front,
and in the rear, until he finally fell
into the water of the lake. This
sufficiently sobered him, but it did
not bring back his courage. Start
ing up, he began to run for his life,
with Wing-wee in close pursuit.
Up and down the beach, in and
around the wigwams, they ran, the
terrified bully pursued by the terrible
little battering-ram, while the whole
Indian village shouted and roared
and whooped at the fun.
1t was the last of poor Wo-bo-
shang. Darling into the depths of
the forest, he forever lost himself to
the tribe.-Ha1per's Young People.

WHAT ALCOHOL WILL Dot may
seem strange, but it is nevertheless
true, that alcohol, regularly applied
to a thrifty farmers stomach will
remove the boards from the fence,
let the cattle into his crops, kill his
fruit trees, mortgage his farm and
SOW his fields with wild thistles. 1t
will take the paint off his buildings,
break the glass out of the windows
and fill them with rags. 1t will take
the gloss from his clothes and polish
from his manners, subdue his reason,
arouse his passions, and bring sorrow
and disgrace upon his family. 1t
will do this TO the artisan and capt.
talist, the matron and the maiden, as
well as to the farmer for, in its en-
nifty to the human race alcohol is no
respecter of persons.

LIQUOR AND LABoR.-A cores
pondent of John Swinton's paper,
the organ of the Labor Unions, calls
attention to the claim of the brewers
that they give employment to $780,
900 men, and says: "Think of this,
workingmen Half a million men en-
ployed in destroying food, in rotting
grain, &C., turning it into a poison
that makes men fiends, wives wild
ows, children orphans, the indus
trious lazy, the intelligent numbskulls
and sends women and children to
work in place of men, thus filling the
land with tramps and loafers for the
workers TO support. If it is true that
every person who produces nothing
beneficial to society is no better than
a pauper, then all labor employed
making, handling or selling such
drinks, Is labor wasted. The objects
of temperance are the abolition of
crime, poverty, disease and prema-
ture death"

TWO KINDS OF TEETOTAL-

Curry was a speaker at the anniver-
sary of the Westminster Broadway
Society. One of the committee OF
that society was not what is called
orthodox in his religious views, and
Mr.. McCury during his speech had
labored to show how much the world
was indebted to the Bible. The
skeptical member who was on the
platform took exception to this teach
ing, and went on to say ''that in his
opinion the man who had invented
gas had done more for the world
than the man who had circulated the
Bible" OF course that was fire.

much uneasiness, and threatened to
beget disastrous results. Mr.. E. G.
Campbell who was on the platform,
and was in his day the idol of the
London temperance meetings, and
never failed to arrest attention and
please an audience, rose to pour oil
on the troubled waters. In doing sc
he said: ~

"WO-BO-SHANG."

Sixty years ago, when the Potta-
wattamie tribe of Indians were still
numerous in southwestern Wiscon-
sin, there was a long line of wig
vans at certain point on the shore
of Lake Michigan, midway between
the present cities of Milwaukee and
Racine.
Among the braves here gathered
was a certain giant red man named
Wo-bo-shang. who by his great size
and bullying conduct had won
great influence over his tribe. Con-
cious of the fear he inspired, Wo-bo-
shang was led to impose on the
rights of all his companions, and his
ugliness grew with each day. Every
morning, after full breakfast, Wo-
bo-shang, arrayed in all his war
paint, his feathers, and his wampum,
was in the habit of disporting him.
