John G. Wooley can pack more
truth and terseness, more pith and
pungency, more strength and simplic-
lty into temperance speech than any
man the writer have heard From the
Boston Monday Lecture platform he
spoke as follows:
Great Britain's breweries will brew
more darkness in a day than Gen.
Booths beacon can Danish in decade.

mercial Christendom the same ships

The Christian voter is the harlequin
of politics, white on one side, black on
the other, and never still.
II remember that a convivial Young
friend of mine went home one night,
and this dialogue occurred between
him and his mother:

"Who was with you?"
"Everybody."
"What have you been drinking7"
Everything"

the election.

"For everybody.
"What did he vote for?
Everything.
He voted to abolish the saloon in
Cambridge and to license it in Boston.
He took the floor for righteousness and
yielded it to reciprocity. He stood
and faced political death for a pro-
tective tariff, and fed at the first fire
when he stood for a protected home.
"He has boxed the compass of po-
itical opinion, and signs for more com

The giant strides made by Minneso-
ia in the past decade have been forci-
bly, illustrated b comparison made
with other states in growth of popula-
ton as shown by the new census, and
it is again shown in the increase of as
sessed values. The state auditors re-
port just issued, shows that the state
assessments in 1881 was little less
than s3OO,OOO,OOO. To-day it is little
over S6OO,OOO,OOO. The school fund
was then little less than 100000.
To-day it is over 100000, being
more than double that of any state in
the Union, Texas and Kansas alone
excepted, and much more than either
of them.

Senator PETER, permanent chairman,
said, referring to placard on the
balcony of the hall, Nine Million

be cured. Growing more fervid in
his manner, the speaker said: What

their railroads? No; we'll build our

closed by giving the new party a boom
in these words: "Does this mean a

else are we here for? The prophecy
of the hour is that new party is to be

notice that those who laugh most are
the very ones who never do ANYTHING
themselves. On the same occasion
the archbishop said: Il would make
it an offense TO employ any woman or
girl in any place where liquor is sold.
Far be it from me to close any proper
avenue of employment for women-I
would open more. 1t is just because
of the curse of drink that so MANY
women need employment to-day. But
L would have no such thing tolerated
as the employment of women in
saloons .

women are supplied with the means
of returning to the sunlight of an up-

home, and when their reformation

manent situations are found for them
in good families where they may sup
port themselves. This is the first in
stance the writer knows where women
reformed from evil ways have been
cordially received into families where
they may have a chance in life, but it
is asserted such homes have been
found for a number already and the
success of the reform movement
demonstrated. The Holiness Assecia-
ton tried to do something on the
same lines few years ago, and the
Salvation Army is now raising fund

members of the army are working.
The many attempts at the systematic
rescue of fallen women in the centuries
Of the past have all failed because,
after girl had been induced TO at
Tempt to reform, she found no families
nor friends willing to receive her. The
so-called charitable ladies of wealth
and refinement who began the various
movements with hope and enthusiasm
all stopped short of accomplishment.
The reformed woman cannot pass her
life in rescue home, nor can she re-

it may not be Improbable. The gen,
eral opinion is that they can be kept
as much as four weeks if rightly
handled, but an experience of one Of
our customers with eggs she bought
from us gives us an insight into what
not to do.
This lady bought a sitting Of our
early laying Light Brahma eggs on
March IL, and wrote us. a few days
since that she got but one chicken,
and that almost all the eggs were
entirely infertile; that is, they were
quite clear and showed no signs Of
having been fertilized. Turning to
our record book we found that we set

Z, and 66 more March II. Those set
on March were February eggs that
had been kept about ten days, and
they gave us As chickens, only four of
the eggs being infertile. OF the
second lot, eggs laid Immediately
after those sold to Miss D., we got 5s
chickens from the Sc eggs, and only
three We're infertile. Hefe was proof
positive that the eggs were all right
when sent her, because eggs laid two
weeks previous showed Sc out of so
fertile, and 5s chicks hatehed. We
wrote and asked her how she had
kept the eggs, and she replied that

Poor Joe.s Misfortune.

The great farmhouse is ablaze with
lights twinkliug from every room.
Long tables groan beneath the loads of
good things the busy housewife has
been days preparing.
From the barn comes merry voices;
joyous laughter.
Let us stand unobserved, in the open
door.
What a happy. merry lot of young
folks-stalwart. handsome young men
and healthy maidens!
They are ranged around the walls
with rapidly-diminishing piles of corn
before them. which they husk and
throw upon the golden heap which is
growing in the center.
All! That young man has found a
red ear in his pilei He leaps to his
feet and dashes at one of the prettiest
girlsi A short chase-a struggle
resounding smack-and it is over. He
has kissed her-maybe on her collar
or her back hair; but that doesn't mat
ter; she counts it all the same.
How happy they all seem.
But no. Over there in dark corner
sits tall powerful handsome young
fellow all alone. He speaks to mo-
body unless addressed, and then his
answers are short and sulien.
Ever and anon he casts a piercing
glance at young man of about his
own age who sits at the eud of the
row opposite. chatting with pretty
young girl. His face darkens. There
is murder in his eye. He is in love,
perhaps. and jealous.
The bell rings for supper just as the
husking is done. and the huskers jump
up and scamper pell-mell toward the
house. but The tall handsome young
man remains seated and drops his face
in his hands with something that
sounds like a sob.
For a long time he sits thus alone,
then light, hurried step is heard and
a sweet-voiced girl asks:
Joe. what's the matter? Had
trouble with Mary? You haven't
spoken to her tonight. hardly. Sick?
