Every pure and only thought,
Till within our hearts should perish
All that Is with evil fraught,
We should hear tho angles singing
All around us, night and day;
We should feel that they were winging
At our side their upward way!
II 1t were our aim to ponder
On the good that we might win,
soon OUR feet would cease to wander
In forbidden paths Of sin;
We should hear the angels singing

We should feel that they were winging

singular instances in which, at times of ex-
citement, and without any use of intoxi-
cants, every symptom of intoxication is ex-
htbited An unfortunate treasurer of n

free drinker. Hardly less astonishing is the
