Tie National Temperance Hospital
located in Chicago, ILL.,, and one of our
most important departments, we are
happy to report, is iii Il very promising
condition. The present building has 43
rooms aud is delightfully."- and health
fully situated. The building is not only
attractive i'll appearance, but admirably
adapted to the requirements of hospi-
tai. Non alcoholic treatment of disease
is meeting with great success--only two
and quarter per cent OF the patients
have died in the past year. Our prlnci-
pics are beiug more generally approved
aud our influence extended by means Of
this noble institution.
The White Ribbon Temple. Five
years have passed since Mrs. Matilda
B. Carse started the subscriptions for
this temple. Now this temple is the
most beautiful Office building in the
world; this fact bias already passed into
pruyelb, and is us freely conceded in
London and Paris as it is freely claimed
in the electric city OF the West. The
building does not yet belong to us in fee
simple, nor did We in the least expect !
that it could so belong when five years /
everything looks hopeful, the stock is !
already controlled by us, and we have ;
ten years III which to laist the money :
that will enable us to call this splendid |
ediice all our own. We have now the !
leverage OF the rentals to help us in the
great enterprise of paying for the tenn
pie. No office building has ever been
more popular among business men or
rented more readily in its first year. Cut

1t he entrance to this beautiful build

Dgly before the world as the home of

Congressman Boatner has introduced
bill authorizing the Secretary of the !
Treasury to issue currency in exchange !
or State bonds and bonds of cities Of

interest is regularly paid. Mr.. Boatner [
xplained this to be a substitute for re-
zeal of the 10 per cent tax on State bank
ssues, which he states meets with
lust be done to apportion the currency
lore evenly throughout the country
nd give more money to the people, is e.,
lear. II it is impossible to carry out the
iank in the Democratic platform which
emands tue repeal of the 10 per cent I
