A COSTLY BOTTLE.

One Of the most cruel things which wicked
men can do is to sell strong drink to ignor-
ant heather saVages. Thousands Of barrels
Of strong drink are sent from Europe and
America to Africa to poison ths benightsd
Africans, and Of late strong drink has been
sold in Alaska to the Indians, and has pro-
ducei most ruiuous results. The Govern
ment prohibited such sale, and now and
then man gets what he deserves. Stephen
Merritt, Of New York, who visited Alaska,
says he saw a man sent to prison for nine
months for selling bottle Of whisky.
ae was fireman on the ship in which Mr..
Merritt sailed, and when he went on shore
in Alaska he took bottle OF whisky which
cost him a dollar, thinking to make some
thing by selling it for larger amount. An
Indian woman bought the whisky and paid
him two dollars, 80 ne made dollar; but he
violated United States law, and soon found
that he was ''out Of a job," and was landed
in Jail for nine months. Mr.. Merritt and
otaers tried to persua1e the officers to let him
,fr with q fine, 30 that he could keep his
place as fireman where he was needed, but
they refused, and so he was sent to jail. II

mvage or the civilized, in Africa, America

CHAPTER Xxx.

There has always been love OF sd-
venture in my system. Many time
during the past has it cropped out, but
never until this night could l say that 1t
had been fully satisfied.
Twas ready to cry out enough, for the
present at least
This night would stand out as q moss
singular event in the ordinary life OF
city physician.
1t was easy for me to see that my conf
panion was exceedingly well pleased with
his escape. -,
AS my hand touched his arm could
feel that he was trembling with excite
ment, although while the impending
peril lasted he had been practically cool.
There had Of late come up some very
important reason when he feared to fall
into the hands Of tho police. 1 remem-
bered that the old detective, Mr.. Ketch-
am, had said there was no special cause
for this mans arrest just now.
Yet the officers seemed going to very
great trouble in order to effect his cap
ture.
One thing alone made me believe 1t
could hardly be for the murder OF Dr.
! Seabury he was wanted. 1t was believed
by the public that the worthy physician
had committed suicide. Few people
knew that q crime had occurred. Then
how could these ordinary police officers
be in full chase after the supposed MUIR
derer when the facts Of tho case did not
even admit OF Mr.. Ketcham's believing
this man to bo the guilty party?
1t was incredible. l could not unite
such antagonistic facts, and yet sullcnly
| held on to the case, not being willing to
acknowledge myself beaten.
Where were wo going now?
That was matter which concerned
my companion moro than myself.
He was walking along with his head
bowed down, rs though in deep thought,
and yet when he turned to look around
him every little while, could see his
! eyes were still shining with the phos-
phorescent CLEAN that had made me

TEMPERANCE.

THE DRINK FOR YOU.
Each flower holds up dainty cup
To catch the rain and dew,
Each bonny gem upon its stem
Lets the light in and through;
The drink of flowers distilled in showers
Is just the drink for you.
The nightingale that cheers the vale
From crystal streamlets flew
On vibrant wings, and when it sings
Its notes are clear and true.
The birds drink should be, think,
The drink for birds like you.
The stars so bright that gem the night,
: Shining like diamonds through
Are sleepless eyes, in sheltering skies,
CHANGING from curtains blue.
They fling their beams upon the streams
That flow with drink for you.
When Hagar prayed for rain and shade
A fountain rose in view,
For unseen hands had scoopsd the sands
And brought the waters through.
She wept and smiled, and gave her child
The drink that's good for you.
Water alone, where the sun shone
From burning skies Of blue,
He drank with Joy. What Of the boy?
"A mighty man he grew"
"Better than gold is water cold" .. B
