The great evangelist, Dwight l..

At the Bible Institute there are nearly
three hundred students men and wo-

the poor and uncOnverted, holding
prayer services and persuading them
to attend the tabernacle. Missions are
established in the slums where the
multitudes are ministered unto by
these cOnsecrated souls armed with
faith and the Word of God. Soon the
open-air street preaching will begin.
For two weeks the auditorium of Mr..
MOOdy's church has been filled with
thousands of children who flock to the
illustrated lectures of Mr.. Mckay, "A
New York broker. During the after
meetings many little ones have been
led to Jesus. In the Institute Hall
two lectures are given each morning

but people thronged there to listen to
the old, old story simply told: hun

Sunday 10000 human beings collected

Moody. what manner of man is
this:" Plain, direct, dealing out
home truths straight from the heart
that cut and sink and find their lodg-

the common walks of life, he had

4 Truthful Indictment.


We affirm that the saloon is am un-
mItigated moral. social. financial and
political evil. 1t is at war with all the
religious forces which tend to build
men up into better lives. 1t breeds
every social disorder and wars persist

society 1t wastes the living of Deepen
dent women and children aud destroys
the productive energies of the people
1t seeks to control for corrupt purpos-
es political parties. 1t cnslaves many
public men. subverts public justice.
debauches the public conscience, trains
its patrons to perjury. and is the I'M
placable enemy of both church and
State. We declare that every effort to
regulate the traffic by license laws has
been failure. That while the law
forbids any one to engage in the traffic
who is not of good moral character. the
business has drifted into the hands of
the very worst class of men i'll the
country, mostly foreign born. and
without love for American institutions
And. further in the main. efforts to
enforce the provisions of the laws
against the traffic have failed for the
reason that the corrupting influence
of the saloon reaches the inner courts

license system has built up great
monopoly in our midst which is strong.

principles of government and repug-
nant to the spirit of free institutions.
High license we condemn as snare
and delusion. 1t has had only one eff
feet and that is to make the traffic more
powerful and more dangerous. We
declare it to be the only wise policy
for the State to withdraw from all
partnership with the saloon. to put it
under ban of law. to turn the whole
power of the State against it as IA com
mon enemy. not only bad itself but
the ally of all other evils which atiiict

BUSINESS VIA THE GULF.

a gentleman named S. A. Trufant,
president of the New Orleans bureau of
freight and transportation, writes let

say Mcpherson to New Orleans, it is 800
miles, while it is TO New York 1 .53S.
Baltimore 1,406, Philadelphia All, and
to Boston 1868. We quote from the
letter:
1t is only since 1856 that Kansas wheat
has found a market on its own merits
and under its own name in England and
continental ports, and it's due TO the enter
prise OF New Orleans that Kansas wheat
was first introduced under its own name.
This is substantially true, though the
Kansas City Gazstte claims that Kan
sas wheat had no distinct standing in
the market until after the establishment
of Kansas state inspection in 1891. ~
That Is also substantially true as to
the markets herein this country
but it does not disprove the statement
made in the Trufant letter. Evidently
the Gazette is not favorable to the south
ern outlet scheme of charging our direct
expectation of grain and other farm
products. The success of that under
taking means the curtailment of the
volume of that traffic which now passes
through the Kansas City toll-gate, which
in turn means the cutting off of Kansas
City's business and revenue to that ex-
tent.

TO was the initial step and has done
much good, not only in opening new
channels for transatlantic traffic with
the west, but it was an important factor

The Trump Of Fame.

The dignity OF the trumpet is proved
By its association with certain famous
personifcations. Thus, one never sees
Fame, Honor, or Victory without a
trumpet For that matter, great
many mortals are never seen without
an accompaniment of the same kind,
which they blow with might and main
IN order to catch the attention of their
fellows. The trumpet IN this sense is
almost indispensa ole; the bigger your
trumpet, the louder your fanfare, the
greater will be your success. Poll
ticians, priests, authors, actors, pro-
fessors, agitators, philanthropists, all
blowing their loudest in order TO blow
themselves into popularity or pelf or
power, There are men and women
with wares to sell-their consciences,
their pens, their talents-who, by per-
sistent trumpeting, get them disposed
of at their own price. The wares may
be sadly damaged, but the loud adver-
tisement confuses and overcomes the
buyer. Other vendors, with better
stuff to sell, get never a bid because
they can not handle their trumpets or
are too scrupulous TO make use of them.
Sometimes. it is true, the staple is of
such excellent quality that the people
crowd round to buy it without "a -four

hold.
Do not make too many visits, and
where you go be sure that your visit is
a convenient one. Do not entertain too
generously; summer should be time
of rest, and it is difficult to rest with a
house full of guests.
Before going for a midday sale rub
your face, neck and hands with simple
cream, and powder gently with corn
starch. Wipe the powder off, and on
returning wash the complexion well in
warm water and with CASTLE soap.
Camphor-ice and buttermilk both give
relief from sunburn.
Place large dish of water in room
where the heat is very oppressive.
Change once or twice and the temper
AZURE will be perceptibly lowered.
Sponge your babies with cold water
at bed time.
Give your children water to drink
during the hot weather. They need
this to make up for the loss from pres
piration.
In washing summer frocks, if the
colors run put half cupful of salt in
For insomnia in summertime take a
cold bath at bedtime
Press towels, folded as usual, through
your clothes wringer and save your
laundress.
Have mercy on your cook in your ar
rangement of meals for hot days.
Battle daily.
Have your house-gowns made with
open necks and elbow-sleeves.
Save your steps.
Allow double the amount of time in
catching boats and trains that you do
in winter.
Eat your meals slowly.
Drink milk slowly.
To wash summer silks remove all
grease or other spots with soap and
water before proceeding. Make a
solution of a teaspoonful of ammonia
and a little soap in pail Of water, and
in this dip the silk again and again
until the dirt is removed. Do not
