In conversation concerning the growth
of the drink appetite an old citizen, a me-
chanic, gives an incident in illustration.
While at work on building in town a
fellow-workman, noticing this mechanic
drinking copious quantities of water, in
formed him that by a certain process he
could cure himself of this habit of excess
i've drinking. 1t was to go and take a
glass of beer, and eat piece of bologna
sausage, and rye bread. The mechanic
was induced to try the remedy, but, al
though it quenched the thirst, and sup
piled the temporary want, the dose had to
be repeated about as often as the water
process. The gentleman shut down on
the habit, and went back to water again.
and he was right. The whole drink sys-
tenn is a snare and delusion. 1t satisfies
no appetite, strengthens no failing faculty.
1t is a fraud.

down and began to pray for the poor,
misguided man. Just as she finished up
the prayer, the man who was supposed to
be dead drunk raised up and said: "Well,
I'll be d if that haint good!'

was expected yesterday that Hon. Mills
Gardner would be here to address the
Temperance meeting tonight. But let
ter was received from him, stating that
he was detained by his private business,
and could not possibly get here. At the
meeting tonight there was large attend
ance. Mayor T. A. Jones first addressed
the meeting. Mr.. Jones is quite young
man, and seemed slightly bashful at start
ing but soon got down to work, and made
good speech, listened to with close at
tention. DR.. J. W. Laird followed, at
some length. The Doctor always strikes
hard, and his speech was filled with tell
ing blows at the horrible liquor crime.
After the speaking numcer came for
ward and signed the pledge-some of
them men who have been in the habit of
drinking to excess. 1t is earnestly hoped
that all good people will assist these men
in successfully battling horrid appetite.

that a short time ago he entered Jack

pocket, and never left the den until he
had spent it all but nickel. Next morn
ing, being dry and sick, he went in and
asked the doggery-keeper for drink, and
that worthy objected because the mans
money a0crs gone. Boys, that's the size of
a doggery-keeper. Keep away from them.

Fell from the joy of the world above
tender touch OF celestial light,
To teach our souls of the Fathers love.
tiny flower in beauty grew,
And sweetly boomed for 4 feeting day,
Where Heaven baptized, with refreshing dew,
And cast the trials of earth away.
But the merry light in the home grew dim,
And the storm hath bliGhted the tender flower
And the rude Death Angel, dark and grim,
Hath mown it down with his subtle power.
Yet through the veil of the gathering night
message falls, in an angel tone:
Il take this flower, pure and bright,
To deck with beauty the Fathers throne.''
beyond the power of NOR tai thought
Is the tender yearuing Of love divine;
That precious flower to you brought
To love was yours, to keep is mine.'
