BUILDING ON THE SAND.

'Tis well to WOO. It's we'll to wed,
For so the world has done
Since myrtles grew and roses blew,
And morning brought the sun.
But have care, We young and fair,
BE sure ye pledge with truth
BE certain that your love will wear
Beyond the days Of youth
For If you give not heart for heart,
Aswell as hand for hand,
You'll find you've played the unwise part
And ''bnilt upon the sand"
lis well to save, It's well to have
A gOodly share Of gold,
And hold enough Of shining stuff,
For charity is cold.
But place not all your hope and trust
Iu what the deep mine brings;
We cannot live on yellow dust,
Unmlxed with purer things.
And he who piles up wealth alone
VIII often have to stand
Beside his cofTeer-chest and own
Ills 'built upon the sand
TITS good to speak in kindly guise
And soothe where'er we can;
Fair speech would blind the human mind 4,
And love link man to man.
But stop not at the gentle words;
Let deeds with language dwell,
The one who pities starving birds
Should scatter crumbs as we'll.
The mercy that is warm and true
Must lend helping hand,
For those who talk, yet fail to do,
But "'build upon the sand"

READ AND PONDER.

Rev. DIR. Justin Edwards gave
the following as some Of the bene-
fetal results when temperance tri-
umphs. His every statement is a
truism:
l, Not an individual would here
after become drunkard.
2. Many who are now drunkards
would reform and would be saved
from the drunkard's grave.
3. As soon as those who would
not reform should be dead, which
would be but short time, not a
drunkard would be found, and the
whole land would be free.
4. More than three-fourths Of the
pauperism Of the country might be
prevented, and also more than
three-fourths Of the crimes.
5. One of the grand causes of err
ror in principle, and immortality in
practice, and Of all dissipation, vice
and wretchedness, would be re-
moved.
8. The number, frequency and
severity of diseases would be greatly
lessened, and the number and hope
lessness Of maniacsin our land be
exceedingly diminished,
Z. One of the greatest dangers of
our children and youth, and one of
the principal causes of bodily, mem
tai and moral deterioration would
be removed.
s. Loss OF property in one gem
Grafton to an amount greater than
the present value of all the houses
and lands in the United States
might be prevented.
8. One of the greatest dangers to
our free institutions, to the perpet-
uity of our government, and to all
the blessings of civil and religious
liberty would be removed.
10. The efficacy of the Gospel,
and all the means which God has
appointed for the spiritual and
eternal good of men, would be ex-
ceedingly augmented, and the same
amount Of moral and religious eff
fort might be expected to produce
more than double its present ef-
fects.
IL. Multitudes OF every genera
tion through all future ages might
be prevented from sinking into an
untimely grave and into endless
torment they might be TRANSFORMED
into the divine image and prepared,
through grace, for the endless joys
of Heaven.
II. God would be honored, vol
unfairly and actively, by much
greater numbers, and with greater
clearness, and to a greater extent
would, through their instrumental
ity, manifest his glory.

This is written before the election,
as this column always goes to press
one week before the paper is issued.
Of course no one knows the result
of the election. Prohibitionists have
had no candidates in the field and no
matter who is defeated it cannot be
Justly claimed as Prohibition de-
feat. The Prohibition Executive
Committee has not had a meeting
since the June convention and Pro-
hibitionists as an organized element
have not figured in the canvass, but
it seems to us that Prohibition, or
whisky, or both have figured IN it
considerably.
Some people say Prohibition and
temperance must not be brought in
to politics. Is politics SO sacred that
it must not be polluted with temper
ance? Then why polute and dilute
it with whisky? ? for whisky has been
in politics for centuries. Or is poll
tics so polutel that fair Temperance
would be sullied by the contact.
Then we had better put into politics
all the temperance and Prohibition
we can, IN order to purify and ele-
vate it. 1t is rather amusing to hear
talk about not making temperance a
political question when it is one of
the most stupendous question of po-
litical economy now before the Amer
lean people. 1t is II politics to stay
for a hundred years. As to whether
it should be distinct and expressed
party issue or not is a question
about which good temperance peo-
pie differ. When people talk about
not making it political question
they usually mean party question.
There is not shadow of doubt that
Prohibition is rapidly becoming a
party question. The Prohibition
lists, whether intentional or not. did
in fact hold the balance OF power in
the last presidential election. "A
large majority of the men who have
worked for Prohibition longest are
taking up the party method as the
only certainly winning one. 1t will
come to that everywhere if other
methods fail.-N. G. Steele.

A Polite Invitation.

Saturday Rev. Sam Jones Was in
Atlanta, on his way to Birmingham,
where he goes to hold a series of
meetings with Mr.. Sam Small. He
brought with him. a letter which he
received yesterday morning. 1t ran
as follows:
Atlanta, GA. Oct. 22.-Rev. Sam
P. Jones, Carterville, Ga.-Dear
Sir: The Prohibition question is
getting redhot in this town. Have
heard that you intended to come here
to lecture. If you want peace and
happiness in yours, you had better
stay away ana let Atlanta people
drink as much as they want. If you
come here we will make it hotter
for you than things along this line
usually get.
You had better get Sam Small
away from here. There are some
people who don't believe in yours
and his kind. Trusting that you
will treat us with the proper respect
&C., we subscribe ourselves,
Respectfully,
WHISKY VOTERS.
Mr.. Jones was asked what he
thought of that letter. He smiled
pleasantly and said:
"Why, that is polite invitation to
come. / will be with you before this
this is over"
"When will you come to Atlanta2'
'eAbout tie 18th Of November. "

also said "that Capt. B. F. Jones

Prohibition was failure here, that
whisky was plentiful and easy to be
gotten.'p 9sMessrs. Jones and
