Such records as the following are not

How He Took the PIedge and Made His
First Temperance Address.

HOW lie Took the rIedge and Made His
First Temperance Address.
1t was in the old town hall, now the
City Hall. 1t was Monday night,
stormy and uninviting out of doors. In
town meeting the gratuitous use of the
town hall had been voted for Temper
ance meetings, which were held regu-
larry every Monday evening. These
meetings were always largely attended.
They were then the great events Of
public interests in the town of Worces-
ter, and the use of the larger hall, the
division then being the east and west
town hall, was necessary for the ac-
commodation of the crowds which uSu-
ally gathered. The night Cough
signed the pledge the storm was so Sc
we're that the meeting was being held
IN the east or smaller hall. On the
opposite side of the street, at Harring-
ton corner, had gathered a number
who had many times found pleasure
IN Coughs singing and dancing. He
found il & stranger a friend who led
him into thatmeeting. Hewas known
to all, for his life had been such as to
make him a conspicuous character.
AS he walked down the center aisle
all eyes were turned upon him. How
well many remember that pale, hag-
gard face, the long, flowing, unkempt
hair of raven blackneSs, which Cough
nervously pushed back from his fore
head as he entered the meeting. His
coat was buttoned at the top only. A
crowd of those who had laughed at his
bacchanalian songs, his wonderful pow
ers of mimicry and his grotesque dane
ing, had followed him into the meet
ing. AS he nervously affixed his sig
nature to the pledge a half-suppreSsed,
sneering laugh was heard by those in
the rear of the hall. Cough heard it
also, and as he laid down the pen he
turned suddenly upon those assembled
with: Why do you laugh? Am 1 not
man?" The meeting was silent in
an instant, and then followed one of
those imprisoned Temperance adj
dresses which in after years made him
foremost among the most effective
workers of the Temperance cause. In
all his after life he never moved an au-
dience more than in this, his first Tenn
perance address. Tears were brought
to the eyes of all, and it was a sight
never to be forgotten by those who
witnessed the remarkable scene. His
reformation was the work of years, and
it was complete, although not until
after he again yielded to temptation.-

TiIlable Lakes.
AEN-T7n
S-.S

Prof. Schwable has drawn the atten-
ton of the Berlin Physical Society to
two interesting phenomena observed
in the gypsum of the Southern Hartz,
viz, the sinking of rivers, often accom-
panied by loud uproar, and the occur
renee of intermittent lakes. The So
called peasants ditch,n near Ross
lau, was, in the last century, as the
contracts between the two neighboring
villages prove, sometimes lake serv-
ing one village for fishing purposes,
and sometimes dry land, which was
then titled by the other village. Sew
eral channels at the bottom of the lake
lead to the interior of the gypsum rock,
yet the water, when it gathered here,
stood for several years at a depth of
from thirty to fifty feet, when it sud-
denly disappeared again. In the years
1876, 1877 and 1873 this lake was filled
with water, and since the last date has
been dry land. Tr1Celer.

To Which 1t Is Hoped to Secure the Namek
of Two NJ Ilions of Women.
Miss Frances L. Willard has recently
issued circular giving plan for a
proposed petition, in favor of the pro-
hibition of the liquor traffic, to the gov
ernments of the world. The plan of
work adopted is: "First-To organize,
sending out accredited and experienced
women to all parts of the civilized
world as rapidly as funds are provided.
Second-To circulate the great petition
according to prescribed method, re-
turning all names to Frances Z. Will
lard, Union Signal office, Chicago, as
the petition will be first presented to
the United States Congress, then to the
Dominion Parliament, then to the Brit
ish Parliament, and so on to the gov
ernments of the world. But one petit
ton will be presented, this being car
ried by a commission of representative
women to every government. Miss
Willard hopes to secure two million
names of women. She calls for sug
gestions for the development of the
plan, and asks local Women Christian
Temperance Unions to send at once
five csnts each annually, to aid in this
special work. The petition, after re
citing the evil effects of alcohol anc
opium, goes on to say: 1--WE have nc

A eigar-box banjo is something which

make. Possibly their older relatives have
ridiculed the home made instrument, and
it has had to contend against prejudice,
which, as we know, is almost fatal
