1T may save your life said good natured
youth as he knelt beside him. Il don't care,
! won't break my pledge replied the lad
These were the last words he ever spoke, for
atterward he died. His death was calm and
peaceful, and the many who noticed the dead
bodies of all the victims, might have noticed
a little cadet with a smile ON his face, as if
he found happiness in dying without break
ing his pledge.-Dioceyan htder.

Winter DnirYinr-

Why one can't see that winter dairying
Is better in every respect than summer is
amystery to me. Butter brings better

trouble keeping the butter in good con-
dition till u tub is filled aud there is a
better yield of butter when cows are fed
grain. If the cows are dry they have to
be fed enough to keep them in good
condition, and they are bringing no
return for it, while if giving milk they

food and good profit besides, and the
increased richness Of the manure adds
extra prctitableness to the land. 1t is

Victory in Great Britain.

The increasing power of the temperance
sentiment in Great Britain is evidenced by
the cablegram announcing that the Govern
ment had withdrawn the licensing clauses of
the County Government bill. This bill pro-
vides that if liquor seller should be refused
license he must be lowed compensation for
his financial loss. The bill met with the
tiercest opposition from the temperance peo-
pie and most of the dissenting churches. as
its adoption would render the liquor sellers
more powerful than they have BEEN and
would compel the people TO al andon all
efforts to prohibit or restrain tho liquor
traffic, or take millions of dollars out of tho
pockets OF the taxpayers. The Government
was at first disposed to pay nc attent on to
the protests against those clauses of the bill,
but 1t became apparent that il they we're re-
tained the entire bill might be lost, and to
save it they yielded. The Methodist Times,
which early called attention to the objection
able character of the bill, IS deserving of
special credit for the removal of what would
have proved to be a bulwark of the Ium-
power.
