The monthly Gospel temperance
meeting was held last Sunday at DR..
Buchanan's church, corner of Elev-
enth and Louisiana streets. The
growing interest in the cause was
evinced by larger audience than
usual, and the hour seemed all too
short for theme that is now enlist
ing so much attention by all thought
full men and women. Mrs. Lydia M.
Chace, the State president of the W.
Z. L. U. for many years, who has
worked so faithfully TO put the Union
on firm busis in our State, made a
few cogent remarks on work done and
work laid out for the future. Mrs.
Sarah X. Hart, State organizer and
lecturer, made some appropriate re-
marks on scientific instruction inSthe
public schools. She made an earnest
appeal for law compelling the in
struction of children as to the nature
and effects of intoxicating liquors and
other narcotics on the human system.
Twenty-Five States already have such

A Woman's Discovery.

"Another wonderful discovery has
been made and that too by lady in
this county. Disease fastened its
clutches upon her and for seven years
she withstood its severest tests, but
her vital organs were undermined and
death seemed imminent. For three
she coughed necessarily and could
not sleep, She bought of us a bottle
of DR.. Kings New Discovery for
Consumption and was so much re-
heyed on taking first dose that she
slept all night and with one bottle has
been miraculously cured. Her name
is Mrs. Luther Lutz." Thus write

From the President.

TIOIIl LIl0 FI0SluOHL.
DEAR SIsTERs-The State Prohibi-
ton Alliance meets in Little Rock the
29th inst, and Major J. L. Palmer,
chairman, extends a general invita-
ton to all temperance societies to
send delegates, who will receive
cordial welcome. The different
phases of the subjects to be acted
upon will be of great Importance.
May each Union take action at once,
so that some of our ''White Ribbon
ers' may lie here to help in the good
cause.
The great cry that has come to me
has been: "What shall, what can we
do about the native wine men who get
drunk on one glass of that which is
sold as native wine?" [ hope the
petition for the amendment to the law
has been well circulated, and let
mass-meetings be called in the neigh
borheods to endorse this and the petit
tien for Temperance Physiology, or
what science teaches about the effect
of intoxicats and narcotics, and send
the resolution thus adopted to the
Alliance by chosen men and women,
If possible; if not, by mail. The
petitions for temperance instruction
should be sent to Headquarters w. G.
L. T., instead of Mrs. Dunlap, as she
is out of the city now. May we come
asking in prayer the blessed inhu-
ence of the Holy Spirit, and that He
may touch the hearts of our legisla-
ture so they may pass laws that shall
protect the home in all its sacred en-
vironments.
The 10Th Of May our State Conven-
ton is to meet in Van Buren,, and
have the inspiring information that
our beloved National President, Miss
Frances +. Willard, by the earnest
entreaty of many of our members,
will, no preventing Providence, at
tend the conventions of many of the
Gulf States, and take ours in also.
Perhaps it may be necessary to
change the date little, if so the
local Unions will be notified as soon
as possible, and let us, dear sisters,
by organizing Unions or otherwise,
have as many of our representative
women to meet her and each other,
and hear the subjects of our work
discussed and explained.
The presidents of other States are
preparing to give her royal welcome
and | am sure we will not be behind.
The Union Signal is offered SO low
fifty cents year-to a club of ten
new subscribers, our women should
not be without it. See, dear sisters,
what can be done in this direction.
hope the superintendent of depart
ments will get reports from Local
Unions, and thus be ready to give a
full one to the Convention in May.
The Lord bless you all. Lovingly,

world missionary, 500, as an ex-
preston of interest in total absti-
nance work.
Mrs. 0. Z. Curtis, president of the
Hazen Union has been nigh unto
deaths door. She is now better.
Her family and friends are hopeful of
her speedy recovery.
Ntorrilton sends the first petitions.
If every county in the State could
send such list of names, we would
have no trouble to convince the legis-
lature that the people want the law.
The Union at Batesville circulated
a petition which was signed by the
leading business men of the town,
asking the county judge to grant no
license in the county.
The following is from the North
western Christian Advocate: cit is
claimed that license is restriction.
Restriction of what? Politicians
promote the nuisance to restrict re-
striction of the liquor traffic. In the
intent of its friends license is planned
to prohibit prohibition. That is the
express promise of the politicians to
the liquor trade. License is offered
more to disarm prohibitionist than to
restrict the saloon. That is the real
intent of the managers who condemn
opponents of license. AS if license
had been proposed as a halfway
house toward prohibition.
The good work goes on of can
vassing for the petition to the legis-
lature to give us a law by which our
children can learn in the public
schools the effects of intoxicants and
narcotics upon the human system,
whether good Gas our beer-drinking
people say or bad. But so few can
canvass that it makes weary work for
the few. Dear Mrs. Hart, weary and
foot sore from walking, is cheered by
the kindly reception she meets with
and the list of names of men in hon
orable positions-those treating her
otherwise being very small excep-
ton, and, like the dark cloud, make
the silver. lining more appreciate.
Some good news from different parts
of the State, but the wall of indiffer-
ence and opposition from others. The
words of the chaplain at the Army
and Navy Hospital are so true, we
will quote them: "The condition of
our city is deplorable, and more de-
plorable is the public sentiment that
makes such a state Of things possible. !"
The Union meeting was a season of
interest in which the voice of three of
three of the sisters was heard plead
ing for blessing on the work, on the
Indifferent and scornful that they may
see the blessing which would result
from united action to put away the
liquor traffic with some of the multi
tude of evils that follow in its train.
The laws of heredity preclude our
putting away some of the terrible re-
suits which our most eminent physi-
clans say bear witness to the truth of
the third command: 1.-The iniquity of
the fathers are visited upon the chill
dren to the third and fourth genera
ton of them that hate me.u Mrs

An Absent Minded Man.

Cincinnati has the champion absent
minded man. A gentleman iv1ngln the
suburbs went into store on Walnut
street to make few purchases. The
only light in the store was candle
standing on the counter near the money
drawer. After his purchases he handed
the proprietor bill, and after returning
HIM his change the proprietor walked to
the rear of the store to arrange some
thing. when SUI ddenly he was left in the
dark. He started toward the counter,
and grop1ng around it found, not the
candle but the change. It struck him
then that probably the stranger in fit
of Observation-Disclosures had taken the can
die instead of the change. He started
out after him, and catching up with him
saw that he had the bundle IN one hand
and the candle in the other. After apol-
ogizing for the mistake the stranger
took his change and gave back the can
die.

DREAMS OF IRELAND.
BY ELEANOR c. DONNELLY.

Sweet Erin, tho me- er have gazed
Upon thy loved and lovely face.
Nor in thine arms (by poets praised).
Have felt q mothers fond embrace;
Tho all the beauties of thine Isle
Its fields, it's rivers. rocks, and hills,
The oewy skies that DER thee smile
The music of thy silver rills--
To me are like a charming book
Which envious hands have clasp'd an
sealed,
Lest even to casual look
Its wondrous graces be revealed
Yet, do see thee in my Dreams
Thy cliffs, thy sands, thy grey seaboard.
Thy sparkling loushs and singing streams,
The emerald velvet of thy sward,
Are pictured oft in silent nights
In spirit thrc thy woods [ rove,
Aud hear the birds (dear feather'd spritesD
Thrilling their lays in glen and grove;
Or, past the hedgerows wand'rin free,
Mid hawthorn buds and bowers of snow
(The while the salt breeze from tho sea
Blows upward from the shingle low,
Methinks view thy storied shrines,
Cathedrals, conYonts. chapeis old,
Where Erin, Isle Of Saints, outshines
Her iron cross, a crown of gold.
Fair mirage OF a far off land!
How tender-sweet thou art to me!
Fain would touch thee with my hand
MY dreams, a I)le61 reality!
Tho dear tho blood owe thy sons,
Those heroes from thy Northern plulns.
Whose life stream down the ages runs
TO cast it's currents thro my veins.
All! dcarcr far one gift sublime,
My heritage from thee and them.
The fuith OF Christ, which thro' all time
Hath been thy glory's central gem.
And snail be mlno. Ny boast, ny bliss,
Should Ger cross you rolling flood,
TO bear it said: IN pilgrim this
