A CHILD OF SORROW.


Ont IN the street. with TAXED feet,
saw the drunkard's little daughter,
Her tattered shawl was thin and smaii;
She little knew, for no one taught her
Heart broken child, she seldom smiled
Hope promised her no brighter morrow
Or il It's light flashed on her night,
Then up came darker clouds OF sorrow
She softly said: s,W have no bread
No wood TO keep the fire a-burning.
The child was ill; the winds we're chill
Her thin, cold blood TO ice was turning.
Rut men well fed and warmly clad.
AND ladies ROBBED in richest fashion.
Passed on the side where no one cried
TO them for pity or compassion.
That long night fled, ana then the ligAt
OF rosy day in beauty shining,
Set dome ana spire and roof on ire
And shone on one beyond repining-
Asleep--alone-a cold as stone,
Where no dear parent ever sought aef'

Was found the drunkards lifeless daugn'

DRINKING MEN NOT WANTED.

The Feeling Against Them Growing
stronger in business and Society.
The progress of barring out from POI
sitions of trust and profit all men who
indulge in intoxieants is becoming
more widespread every year With
some occupations it is almost an abso-
Lutte rule that drinking men are not
wanted. All the leading railroad COM
panies OF the country refuse to employ
men who drink. and this practice is ex-
tending even to street-car lines. A
short time ago. the Fourth avenue
street-car company, of New York city,
one of the principal ones in that city,
issued an order to all its conductors and
drivers notifying them that it would
thereafter be considered sufficient
cause for immediate dismissal for any
of them to visit saloon at either end
of the road between trius. The officers
of the road frankly said that the mott
fcation was issued to insure discipline
among the men. some of whom were
in the habit of leaving their cars
and horses unattended while they loi.
tered in saloons at one end or the other
of the line. The men themselves got
up some little excitement over the or
der and even talked of organizing a
strike to have il rescinded: but wiser
counsel prevailed. when they reflected
that there were plenty of men in the
city who were perfectly willing to take
their places, and who did not make a
habit of visiting saloons.
The growth of the feeling can also be
seen IN many secret societies which
condemn the liquor traffic and exclude
liquor sellers from membership. In
this case the objection is to the mans
occupation. One who makes it his sole
employment to minister to debased
appetite among men is not considered
worthy of fellowship with the gentle
men composing the order. 1t will be
remembered that the grand lodge of
odd fellows of the state of Indiana re-
Gently decided hereafter to exclude all
liquor dealers from the Organization.
Similar action has been taken by the
masonic order. and by the Knights of
Pythias, in different states. Every such
action reveals the deep-seated condem-
nation among the intelligent masses of

the POWER OF EXAMPLE.

| A Practical Illustration of Its Bcnefcen1
Influence.
A we'll known Christian merchant OF
this city not long ago had an urgent
telegram calling him to see an old
friend residing in suburban town.
When he arrived at the house OF bis
friend he found the latter very i'll and
only expected to live for few hours.
The friend asked to see him alone,
and when by themselves, said: My
doctor tells me that | can live at the
most but twenty-four hours ! want
ed once more to see you and say to you
something that have never told you.
In early life, as young men, they had
met in this city in business relations,
and il was at that period that the
close bond of personal friendship was
formed. They went much together in
society. and had great happiness in
eaca other. The one who was about
to pass away had in their young man
hood cousin, beautiful young lady
in this city. in whose society both these
friends passed much time. On one
occasion she gave I'D elegant party,
at which both were IN attendance.
During che evening when refreshments
were served, she came to the friend of
her cousin and asked him to drink
with her glass of wine. Very fond
of her the young man was sorely per
picked. but finally declined, saying:
u will do anything for You that l
properly can, but | eannos drink the
glass of wine-- Turning from him
with somewhat of an air OF iispleas-
ure, she said; well, I will go to-"
(her cousinD. '-he will drink il with
me" She crossed the room 10 her
cousin. extended the invitation to him
with the air OF confident expectation,
but he also declined, greatly to her as
constituent. and not little to her cha
grin In this last interview, many
years after the party in question. one
thing which passed between these two
old friends was the statement OF the
one who was about 10 die, which he
wished to make as something OF a con-
fession, to the effect that he was at
that time an observer across the room
of what transpired with his cousin, and
although he had never before thought
of abstaining from Intoxicating bever-
ages. to the social use of which he had
always been accustomed, influenced by
the example of his friend IN declining,
he also determined to decline He
wished now to make acknowledge
ment of his gratitude for this eventful
incident in his life. which he had no
doubt had saved him from excuses and
ruin which, in his case. would have al
most certainly followed the eontinu-
ance of the drink habit
In this incident may be seen a prac-
teal illustration of the power of right
example. Its influence is sometimes
more potent and farreaching than words
of counsel alone, however good they
may be- May every one. young and
old, realize in the light of this dying
statement of one friend to another, the
great value and Importance of the alb
stainer's example to others. National
