q general revival of trade at Shurtleff's
Drug Store as their giving away to their
customers of so many free trial bottles
Of DR.. Kings New Discovery for Con-

the fact that it always cures and never

THE DECLINE OF A NOBLE on
GANVTATION

Is is always a melancholy thing when
an organization. conceived with a good
purpose, and for a season accomplish
ing noble work, is wrested fIom its
proper activities and restricted in ITS
usefulness 10y reason of reckless and
mistaken leadership. This is what is
happening to the Womans Christian
Temperance Union, This organization
was formed distinCly for a moral and
educational work. 1t aimed to be, and
was, all that its maine implied, II la
bored TO promote personal hadi,s of tenn
perance, TO reclaim the fallen,tO educate
and hold the children, and to diffuse
through the community sentiments OF
adherence for the evils caused by in
temperance. Moreover, in all its exer-
tiOns il was Christian in thought and
spirit. Its PLATFORM was broad. A
clause in its constitution forbade the
discussion of political subjects, and the
Union appealed to and received the sym
pathy and cordial support of men and
women of all shades of religious anC
political belief. To any one who con
| trGsts the earlier with the later history
OF the Union it must almost seem as il
two distinct organizations were passing
under review.
Recently. this noble association o.
women has been sliced in the Interests
of third-party Prohibition and woman
suffrage. Its President has been en-
gagged in campaigning for a poIitica
organization which declare its prim
mission to be the destruction of the Repul
lican party. Its platforms proclaim ad
herence to the Prohibition party ant
pronounce for woman suffrage. The las
step was taken on Monday, when tn
clause of the constitution, forbiddlnI
political discussion, was rescinded b,
an overwhelming vote. This claus
had been dead letter for several years
and its formal removal launches tn
Union as political organizati) On
! Obviously the women who control thl
Union have a wright to do with 1t
they please. But when they restrict 1t
scope and ALLEVIATE its SUI polt, the
must be content to accept the const
quences. As political body, linked t
the cause of third-party Prohibition an
the advocacy of woman suffrage, the
may expect and ought to receive the SUI
port of third party Prohlbtionist5 an
woman sulTragists, but they can no lor
ger urge upon the community at larg
those claims which were valid whe
their Union was moral and Chrislia
force. Local unions and State organic
tons have, in several instances alread
protested against these tendencies, an
have in some places reorganized on a
independent basis. This is the onI
o ernative now open TO Christia
women who want to work for temper
ance without identifying themselvt
with politics or restricting their wor
within political lines, ln.any commuult
there waits for women, who undert TX
this work on the basis which the Unto
has abandoned that CORDIAL support an
warm cooperation whichsthe leaders {
the Union have willfully forfeited.

Poots silently gritted hiss teeth

But the chap wouldn't start for
home. He stayed and stayed, and
they kept billing and cooling until
after midnight Poots' position was
very uncomfortable, squatting be
hind the sofa, and the lovemaking
that was going on did not add to his
ease. There is no knowing how

When they were gone, and all was

into the cellar, from which he escap-

Cough often labored over the same fields and
in the art Of swaying mems hearts the revivalist
was hold to be the equal of the great temper

revived life in decaying congregations and
brought thousands of penitsnt sinners into the
fold.
While in the height of fame and success in
the interior of the State rumors got abroad i'm
plicating him in scandals and the excessive use
of intoxicants. His wife left him and applied
for q divorce He went to Indiana and resumed
revivalist work. It was not long, however, be-
fore charges Of gross immoralitiss were brought
against him there, and after q sensational
church trial he was convicted aud deposed from
the ministry. He was next heard of in Michi-

formed drunkard. At last he was constrained
to seek refuge in the aims house at Paw Paw.

Whether the fatal fall from the window was
