catch-Penny Advertising.

An exchange thruthfully says: "If
business men would confine their ad-
vertising to the legitimate journals of
their town--such as command the re-
spect of the people, and ignore the
catch-penny concerns, that are only
gotten up for the purpose of extor-
tioning money out of their pockets. it
would be far better for the reputation
of their business. Encourage only
papers that are a benefit to your com
munity, and are conducted by practi-
cal, experienced men in their bust
ness-and those whose interest are
identified with the place 10 which
they live. and you will soon see q
mutual benefit, arising therefrom. "
We fully concur in the above sensible
remarks of the writer.

An interesting Meeting.

The Woman's Foreign Missionary
Society of the Presbyterian Church
held its regular monthly meeting in
the lecture room of the church yester-
day afternoon. The meeting was a
most interesting one. Mrs. Dorsey
presided. Miss Taylor read an inter-
esting article on "At Day In Brazil, !"
and Miss Redmond read an appropri-
ate poem on missionary work The
meeting was one Of the most instrnc-
tive and entertaining the ladies have
ever held. The progress of the work
in this society far exceeds the expecta-
tons of the most saDguine. During
the past few months the treasurer for
warded to the general treasurer at
Baltimore something over $14. This
was considered a neat little sum for a
society organized so short q time and
with so few members May the good
work 60 on.

Pn0HIHOu.

lHHN HET oOWe
Mr.. EDfToR: Thanks TO the good
people Of Dakota, for setting their
zeal 70 the act Of Prohibition. This
will be an immense blessing to US
in its religious, moral and civil in
fluence, in which all good citizens
will rejoice.
The following facts in relation to
the origin, and progress Of prohibi-
ton in the United states, l think
may interest all classes Of your
many readers.
The first "Act TO prohibit drink
lighthouses and tippling-shops,"
known to history, was introduced
into the Massachusetts, Legislature
in 1848. The man who drafted that
act still lives, and ID pastor Of the
Free Baptist Church in Norwich N.
Y. Rev. B. D. Peck, now full Of
years, wisdom and honor, is the
man referred to. In 1848 he was q
member Of the Legislature Of Mass
a~chusetts, and on the committee to
which the petition Of 5000 citizens
was referred. The bill failed TO be-
come a law. In 1849 Mr.. Peck was
called TO the pastorate ola church
in Portland, Maine, and Immediate
ly took q leading position in the
temperance cause in con-
nection with Hon. Neal Dow.
A temperance league was or
ganised, which offered It's support to
either the Democratic or the Wing
party, on condition Of a pledge to
enact q prohibitory law. The Demo.
crats made the pledge, and conse-
quently carried the state. The
same bill, with slight changes
which had been defeated in Massa.
chusetts, was enacted in Main in
1851. In 1855 the Democrats chan
ged front, and repealed the law.
For two years liquor selling was at
high tide, but the Temperance
League, Of 10000 voters, held a bal
ance of power, and refused to sup
port any party not pledged to 70
enact the repealed law. The Re-
publican party had been organized
in 1856, and the State convention in
1867 inserted q p~rohibitory plank
in it's platform. It succeeded at the
polls, az the League gave it vigorous
support, and as a result the law was
re-enacted in 1858, and has ever
since remained in force. Messrs.
Peck and Dow were leading spirits
in the contest, and their wise policy
secured their victory. Amajority Of
neither party favored prohibition,
hut the Republicans saw that it was
necessary to have the 10000 inde-
pendent votes to win the election,
and were quite willing to give them
the law in return for the support.
In this way the people got the
"Maine Law" which has proved a
potent educator, not only in Maine,
but throughout the nation. The
benefits of that law have been i'm
mense, both financially and morally,
and have had great influence in
disseminating probibitory senti-
ments in the whole land. Every
philanthropist testifies to its value,
and hopes still larger results will
follow in the future. Had it not
been for this success in Maine, there
is every reason to believe not anoth-
er State which now has the law
would have been able to enact pro-
hibition down to date, and the pros
poets in still other States would
haye been far more discouraging
than they now are.
These statements have been gath
cred from reliable sources and may
be depended upon. Truly,
J.V. HINES.
