Down on Card Playing, Too.

ECltor ARGUS.
MILAN, Feb. 16.-There has been a
great deal said OF late about dancing and
dancing's boon compauion-csrd playing
has been let escape. Now we think
there Ia much need OF sermon on card
playing. for IL certainly is the greater
evil OF the two. A great many say there
10 no harm In q social game of cards
Such one plays and they are in the up
per tens; In nv estimation they are not.
/ do not think that christians ever want
10 dance or play cards. and l think that
church members who allow cards played
in their house are committing great sin.
l pity the man who goes TO town and can
scarcely wait till he gets his team In the
stable until he goes to some saloon and
plays cards. AS the lady that gave bsl
views last week In the ARGUS said we do
not expect one sermon TO choke out card
playing, but let II be proclaimed FROM
every pulpit In the land until 1t Is choked
