Temperance.
Points for Prohibition.

We are often told that the majority
of drinkers are moderate drinkers,
and that the number of those who
ssmake beasts of themselves" by over
indulgence is comparatively small.
Hence, it is argued, the proper RENE
DIV for intemperance is not to prohlb-
it the manufacture and sale of lntoXl-
cants, but to teach men self-control,
so that they will know when to drink
and when not to drink. Self-control
should always be inculcated and Gull
tivated, but those who propose it as
a sovereign remedy for intemperance
forget that all the forces of the liquor
traffic are in league to break it down.
The traffic, as represented by the sa-
loon, is an aggressive, soulless busl-
ness. The only principle 1t lncul-
Gates or cultivates is 'Drink F!
drink" 1t teaches indulgence, not
restraint. 1t has no standard OF
moderation to propose, and admits of
none. 1t invites, it entreats, entraps
customers. 1t tempts to indulge and
trains in over-indul9 ence. Not one
of its patrons has an even chance to
preserve his self-control. 1t IS
mockery to speak of curing intemper-
ance while the saloon exists to pro-
duce it.
From the class of moderate drink
ers the ranks of immoderate drinkers
are invariably recruited. The whole
tendency of drinking is toward in
temperance. The taste for intoxi-
cants is not natural, but an acquired
or inherited taste. 1t develops by
indulgence, and is strengthened by
habit. 1t is never satisfied. 1t
awakens rather than quenches thirst.
1t steadily undermines the will pow
er. and captures the citadel of self
control. The day of surrender may
be long delayed in some cases; it
may never come in others but it is
safe to say that no moderate drinker,
though he may succeed always In
maintaining his self-control, is quite
the same he would be if he were an
abstainer. We do not advocate pro-
hibition to make men sober, but to
suppress a public business organized
to make them drunk. Prohibition IS
not directed to the drinker, but to the
vender The state may not prevent
man from losing his self-control IN
drinking, but it may prevent another
man from making it public business
to destroy that self-control.-Neao
York Independent.

The resurrection of Christ from the
dead not only prove his Messiahship
and the truth of his doctrine, but is
also the pledge and "first fruits of
the resurrection of all his people. AS
he rose from the dead so will they
rise from the dead. Those that
'sleep in Jesus will God bring with
him." G Thess. iv, 14.) Let all
Christians comfort themselves with

Disappointment.
One thing is admitted by all, that

One thing is admitted by all, that
we are living in a world of disap-
Dointments. Some of our choicest
anticipations crumble to dust on the
very eve of realization, and leave
bitter sting in our aching hearts long
to be remembered. Many of these
troubles and heart-aches arise from q
want of a proper understanding.
While the land is filled with infidels,
who, if an angel of light were to in
struct them, would not be convinced.
There are also many honest souls who
place too much confidence in men
formed dogmas and opinions. To
such we would commend the faithful
Bereans, who when they heard the
apostles, searched the Scriptures
daily to see if the things which the
disciples promulgated were true.
The way of salvation is so plain
that none need err in it, and the rea-
son why so many stumble and fall,is,
they fail to investigate for them
selves. Hence it is always safe for
young converts to religion or for
those who are not established in the
pure teachings of the Bible to unite
with some branch of the church pure
ly evangelistic. There are little sects
and ambitious would-be leaders in
this country who are doing great
harm to the souls they succeed in
leading away from the sure faith.
We should caution the people against
these pretenders. Search the Scrip
lures and see if their teachings be

The toilet which Paul advises the
believer to put on is the Lord Jesus
Christ in the qualities of his charac-
ter, the manner of his life and the
principles of his Gospel. Thus at
tired, the believer will make no :spro-
vision for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts
thereof" (Rom. xiii, IA

That which was to "the Jews a
stumbling-block," and to ''the Greeks
foolishness,' Paul preached as the
wisdom and power of God. What
was this? It was the doctrine of
ssChrist crucifed' for sinners, in
which doctrine he believed, and to
the propagation of which he devoted
the best energies of his life. q Cor.

Men, especially when successful in

the world were wholly a matter of

One of the old writer's says that
''Christ is Gods great ordinance in
the salvation of the world" This
one fact ought to settle all questions
and end all debate in respect to the
wisdom and sufficiency of this plan
for the salvation of sinners.

TO reach that charmed limit the present

A Rumseller's Experience.

A man named Stacy, the owner OF
a splendid drinking saloon in New
York, signed the pledge and closed
his house. Hearing that company
of lads had formed themselves into
temperance society, he gave them
his experience as rumseller:
81 have sold liquor said Mr.
Stacy 'for eleven years-long enough
for me to see the beginning and end
of its effects. | have seen man take
his first glass in my place and after
wards fill the place of suicide. L
have seen man after man, wealthy
and educated, come into my saloon
who can not now buy his dinner. L
can recall twenty customers, worth
from 100000 to $500, 900, who are
now without money, place or friends.
He warned young men against enter
ing saloon on any pretext; he stat
ed that he had seen many a young
fellow, members of some temperance
society, come in with friend and
wait while he drank. No, no, he
would say,'I never touch it. Thanks,
all the same Presently, rather than
to seem churlish, he would take a
glass of cider or harmless lemonade.
The lemonade was nothing" said the
rumseller, 'sbut | knew how it would
end. The only safety for any man,
no matter how strong his resolution
is outside the door of saloon
Postmaster General Wanamaker
gave utterance to the following, re-
Gently: sEIt is your duty to make il
as difficult to get liquor as to procure
poison. License means that the
state and the saloon-keeper shall GO
into partnership to ruin men, to build
up jails, almshouses, hospitals and
houses Of correction, and to keep up
the taxes"
There are twenty-five millions OF
moderate and immoderate drinkers in
the United States, and the indications
are that the sentiment of the MAORI.
ty of voters is in favor of keeping the
ranks well recruited. /. M. Y. j.

US see. All the distillers and brew
ers, all the liquor-dealers, wholesale
and retail, all the patrons Of the sa-
loon, with few exceptions, all the

against prohibition, and were jubilant
over the result. On the other side
were the Governor of the state, most
of the ministers, large proportion

excepting possibly two or three de-
nominations, the Christian educators
in large part, and not few lawyers,

How Rockets are Made

Rockets are made for three pur-
poses: for signaling; for decorations
OF celebrations,or as projectiles in
war. For signals, the charge con-
sists Of II parts of inter, of sui
phur, and 3 of charcoal. The orna-
mental, or decorative, rocket is the
one we see used on the Fourth Of
July, and the composition of which it
is made comprises 122 parts of meal
ed or finely pulverized powder, 80 of
inter, 40 of sulphur, and 40 of cast
iron filings.
The main part of the rocket is a
case, made by rolling stout paper,
covered on one side with paste,
around wooden form, at the same
time applying considerable pressure.
The end is then s'choked," or brought
tightly together, with Irvine.
The paper case thus made is next
placed in copper mold, SO that a
conical copper spindle will pass up
through the choke, and the compost
ton is then poured in and packed by
blows of mallet on a copper drift
or packing-tool made to fit over the
spindle. The top of the case is now
closed with layer of moist plaster
| q 1otz 10
with a small hole for the passage of
the flame to the upper parton spot. "
The pot is formed Of another paper
cylinder slipped over and pasted to
the top of the case and surmounted
by paper cone filled with tow.
The "decorations" are placed In the
pot and are scattered through the air
when the flame, having passed
through the aperture of the plaster,
reaches small charge of mealed
powder, placed in the pot. The
stick is a piece of pine wood, taper
ing, and about nine times the length
| OF the rocket. LII is TO SulQe Tile
rocket in its flight. The decorations
in the pot may be "stars," ''ser-
penis, "marrons, . 'sgold-rain, and
so on. "Marrons" are small paper
shells filled with grained powder and
pinned with quick "Serpents'
