Evils Of IntemperAnce.

Contributed by the womens Christian Temperance
Union Of Miles City.
The cause of temperance has receiv.
ed an impetus recently In Miles City
which is one of the hopeful signs OF
the moral prosperity of our commune
ty. In December last an organization
of ladies was perfected which Is an
auxiliary to the National Woman's
Christian Temperance Union. One
month ago local society Of the INDIE
pendent Order Of Good Templars was
organized, which already has about
sixty members. The churches, too,
are agitating the question and have
quarterly union meetings, and through
different agencies much good is being
done. The question does not figure
In politics. and perhaps 1t is well II
does not. at least until the..moral sen.
timent of the community is thorough.
ly awakened.
The evils Of intemperance are patent
TO every observer, and SO dangerous IL
the habit of drinking that II seems
that the only safe platform for any
man to stand on Is platform of total
abstinence. The woman's motto is,
"For God and honae and native land"
and this cause of temperance embodies
the highest and truest type Of patriot
ism. 1t contemplates the rescue and
reformation of the drunkard, and tn,
education of youth to habits of sobri
ETY.. The lines are being drawn NOR
closely every year on this importan
question, and we must wish and labo
and pray that Miles City may share IL
the general revival Of Temperance
which Is spreading In all parts Of ou
land.

The REPORTS around that a cour

The reports around that a couple
of Mormon elders are around the
country making converts. They are
quite numerous in northern Wyo-
ming and Idaho but what success
they are having is not known. They
could do we'll on ranch among the
COW ooys and should give the Toys a
trial Of their power. 1t would make q
good test case to catch the first OF
these bigamists who visit this section
and see whether they would make
converts of the cow boys first oil
whether the bow boys would have the
elders herding steers with them.

Probably not. How is it with Sunday
storms Do they keep you from church
and Sabbath schools If not, it is to
be feared that your example is not
generally followed. 1t does seem,
judging by the small number in most
churches and Sunday schools on stormy
Sabbaths, that a Sunday storm is a
fearfully dangerous affair compared
with one during the week. People
have umbrellas and waterprOofs, wraps
and second best dresses and clothing :;
they find them excellent for use dur
ing the storms of the week, but very
unsafe when it storms on Sunday. 1t
seems too bad that the soul should
suffer the loss of so many Sabbath ser
vices on account of the greater dangers
of Sunday storm. And then, too, it
is trying to the minister and to the SUI
perintendent, as we'll as the teachers,
to prepare a good sermon, frstrate
lesson, and have so few to hear and be
prOfited by it. And what II disappOint-
ment to the class when "teacher" is
absent! Would it not be we'll if in
ventOrs could discover some material
that would protect as thoroughly from
IA storm Oh Sunday as any other day
Such an invention would be worth
millions to the man who gave it to the
public. Inventors, cannot you help
the people against their great danger

READING ALOUD.

If yOu ask eight people out of ten
now, they will tell you that they hate
being read to. And why9 Because
from their childhood they have been
unused to it, and used only to such
mOnotOnOus drone as robbed even
the Arabian Nights of half their charm.
The husband, at the end of hard
days work, returns home to pass the
evening absorbed in his book, or doz-
ing over the fire, while the wife takes
up her novel or knits in silence. If he
reads to her, or if he could tolerate her
reading to him, there would be COM
munity of thought, interchange of
ideas, and such discussion as the fusion
of two minds into any common chan
mel cannot fail to produce. And it is
often the same when the circle is wild
er. | have known large family pass
the hours between dinner and bed
time, each one with his book or work,
afraid to speak above his breath, be-
cause sit would disturb papa" Is this
cheerful, or wise, or conducive to that
close union in a household which is a
bond of strength through life, which
the world can neither give nor take
away? l cannot blame them, for they
all read abominably and it is enough
to have endured the infliction of fami
ly prayers, gasped and mumbled by
the head of the family, to feel that
listening to such a delivery for any
length of time would exasperate one
beyond endurance.
But it was not always so. In the
last century even as late as fifty
years agO-reading aloud was regard
ed as an accomplishment worth the
cultivation of those Especially those
who lived in the country with preten
sions to taste and it was, consequent
ly, far more frequently found enliven-
ing the domestic circle. There were
fewer books, fewer means of lOcomO-
ton, fewer pleasures of Winter nights
outside the four walls of the country
parlOr. The game of cribbage, or the
sonata on the spinet, did not occupy
the entire evening after six o'clock din
ner and Shakespeare and Milton were
more familiar to the young generation
of those days than they are now

were accustomed to hear them read

A COMMUNION ADDRESS.
New Years Sabbath at Pilgrim Church.
st. Louis.

BY REV. C. L. GOODELL, D. d.
The last communion service over
which Dr.. Goodell presided was on
New Years Sabbath. The address
though very short was so rich in
thought that it has been frequently
published aud is given below:
An artist must stand back from his
work, at times, to see how it is shap-
ing up; so need we, at the beginning
of the new year, to look upon our lives
and test them by divine standards.
|. Set up the family altar if down,
rebuild it.
2. Plan to give definite portion of
your income to the Lord.
3. Take Il good religious family
newspaper, and provide fresh and
abundant reading for the household.
4. See that your children are in the
Bible school, and doing well.
5. Let your strength overflow to
the weak.
6. AS you take down the old calen-
dars and hang up the new, settle all
begin duty afresh, "steps up to
heaven"
7. Start life anew with the Week of
Prayer. Draw nigh to God and He
will draw nigh to you.
8. Reserve prayer meeting night
from all OtLer engagements through
the year.
9. See that the Sabbath is honored
by you and in your home.
10. Have IL care for the temperance
question.
ii. Cherish no evil, carry no i'll
will against any.
| II. Open Gods Word and take it
into your life. The continuous study
of the Bible must make the soul and
the future massive and great.
| I3. Take the high, bright side,
trust God fully, follow Him wholly,
and rest your life in His glorious light
IA. We are soon to leave this world,
never to come back. Put your mark
on it for good this year. A monk saw
vision of spiritual beauty, but turned
from it at the call of duty when he re-
turned it was still there, God kept it
for him. We gain whatever we leave
for God and duty.
Coming up out of the valley of the
Jordan, we suddenly caught sight of
our camp in the distance. 1t was a
CLEAN of white and gold, its cords
stretched and its banners flying, all
lighted up by the setting sun. We
said, there is rest and refreshment ;
our hot and dusty march is over. But
we found it weary and hard way as
we descended into the valley that ill.,
tervsned, rock and river, and ravine
and morass, and thorn and precipice,
before the goal was won.
So, on this bright New Years morn
ing, our fair mansions in the skies
seem near but, if God has yet weary
way before us ere we attain, let us go
in a patient and strong faith

| pense of congress. That night con-
gress rose and three days later fed to
Princeton and found quarters i'll the
college.
| 80. Upon what European principal
! ity in the 18th century was humiliat-
ing treaty forced, which bears in the
records of the priucipality the title of
"The PiteOus Peace 7"
This treaty was imposed upon the
inhabitants of Liege in Belgium by
Charles the Bold of Burgundy in l466.
80. What dasIIing young cavalry
officer, who fought under ROchambeau
in America, later, on ascending the
guillotine in Paris, declining to have
his hands tied, said gaily to the execu-
toner, ave are both Frenchmen we
shall do our duty?"
Due de Lauzun.
90. What stole Roman philosopher
mentions i'm his writings the theory
then held by some, that the earth
moved on its axis
Seneca.
81. What Roman historian, who
had been expelled from the list of sem
atOrs, was restored by Julius Caesar
and made Governor of Numidia
Gains Crispus SalIust.
90. What satellites of what planets
are supposed to have retrOgrade
movement?
Uranus and Neptune.

the Junius letters State the grounds
of your conclusion.
The unanimous verdict, is, Sir Philip
