Appetite, Custom, Law

The liquor traffic is founded upon four
great rocks, that nothing can phase but the
avarice, appetite, custom, law. Avarice
touches the vender, wholesale and retail,
appetite touches the drunkard and moder-
ate drinkers; custom touches the frame
work of society and law touches the legisla-
tors and shields the traffic. To remove the
liquor traffic, therefore, remedy must be
pr to snciefUS and te the
makers. License promotes the avarice of
the vender and increases the appetite of
the dr1nker. 1t is for these reasons made
quate; in fact of no value as a remedy
Prohibition is the sovereign remedy, for 1t
controls the vendors avarice, curesthe drink
er's appetite regulates the customs of socie-
ty, and removes the legal props that sustain
the busineSs.-LeUer.

BERKELEY SPRINGS, W. VA.
DEAR FREEMAN:
We found the room we first rent
ed was too small for our increasing
numbers, and while our hearts were
rejoiced at this, they sank at the
seeming impossibility of securing
a larger place. At this juncture,
the trustees of the Methodist Epis-
copal church gerry kindly granted
US the use of half of the basement
of their large church, free of any
rent. Through the help of friends
we have been enabled to repair and
make it large and commodious
room. The notices and Scripture
texts which adorn the walls, add
to it greatly and it does look SO
cosy and inviting.
Now we feel, as Miss Jennie Smith
says, that we've come to stay" We
have enrolled fifty-two members,
and among the ladies are some
timid, but good, true workers.
Among our honorary mbers are
some of the most prominent men
of our town. One who lately
joined, well-known and promi-
nent lawyer, is deeply interested
in the Temperance work, so much
needed In our town and county.
will write you very soon in regard
to Flower Mission day. With many
good wishes,

Press Work.
Read Before the First District W. G..
G. T. U. Convention, recently held
at New Cumberland.

BY MRS. ]. G. JACOB, OF wELLsBURG.
In preparing matter for the press
it is difficult to give any special
directions. More depends upon
the aptitude of the party under
taking it than upon any instruc-
tions how to do it. 1t seems to re-
quire a special faculty of obser-
walton of what is going on around
you and of turning items of
information, apparently trivial, to
the best possible account.
The local superintendent Of
Press Work should be a reader of
the daily press and of Temperance
papers, especially our State and
National organs, the WEST VIR-
GINA FREEMAN and the Union
Signal, and should possess the
power of condensing the impress
sions made. She may clip articles
bodily or alter to suit the time and
locality. Note thoughts that may
occur while attending to other
duties and at a convenient time
enlarge upon them in a tablet or
scrap book kept for the purpose.
Local items should always be
pointed and of as few words as will
express the sense intended. If any
thing occurs where facts are impor-
tant, note them down at once, but
do not depend largely upon memory
for such things, and be careful
about repeating in type what you
merely heard said. Be systematic
in the arrangement of items, but
avoid monotony of subject, style OF
treatment or arrangement. Avoid
eccentricity and exaggerated ex-
pressions, but cultivate natural
ness and simplicity of phraseology.
Very important words should be
italicized. This is done by under
scoring them, thus, whatever IS,
is right" A common mistake
among beginners is to italicize too
much; that is, to emphasize un-
important words. Underscore with
three lines for capitals, two lines
for small caps, one line for italics.
Write plainly and on one side of
your paper. Be very careful
especially, to write all proper
names and figures distinctly,
correctly and legibly, or you will
have many errors to answer for.
Never keep the printers waiting for
copy; be prom pt yourself and they
will insensibly acquire the same
habit and vice oersd.
Watch the newspapers to acquire

Tho Lady OF Lyons" was the play, and

which both amused aud excited the audi.

in McCullough's arms crying ont in tones
of snperlative affection: "0h-h-h-h
