About Tariffs.

Several hundred years ago, on the
southern-most point of the province of
of Cadiz, Spain, there was land is yeti a
small town called Tarifa. Situated at
about the narrowest part of the straights
of Gibralter, it was the northern port for
the trade carried ON between Spain and
Africa. The Moors, who then dominated
Southern Spain. levied tribute on the
vessels engaged in trade. and this exaction,
from the place where it was practiced.
was called a tariff" Hence the schedule
of duties now levied by most nations on
imports. are called a tariff on the same.
Among the important political questions
which have divided the people Of the
United States, since the beginning, the
tariff has always been very prominent.
Protection" free trade" and tariff
for revenue only" have been rallying cries
for our political parties. But there are
other tariffs than these. A schedule Of
rates charged by a railroad for the trans
portation Of passengers or freight between
various points is called a tariff: and some
of them. from the great number Of articles
and the numerous stations reached. are
complicated and bulky affairs. IL you

Tomorrow has no overflow to make
good a lost yesterday" So true is this
little saying that it is enough to star
tie one at the very intensity of its
meaning. How many of us go along
from day to day feeling that duties
which present themselves may be post
poned until more convenient time
and they are left undone until the
time for their performance is past re-
call; and only the consciousness of
sad neglect remains to show us what
we might have done.
In thinking of this my mind dwells
constantly on the work that might be
done for the young children, in all
our towns and country neighborhoods,
happy life" while yet their pure young
hearts are open to all that is good and
true and while no stain or temptation
has come upon their lives.
What labor of love it would be for
any young woman to form Loyal
Temperance Legion and go to work
with and for the children, to lead them
in sure path and have their minds
and hearts so full of the right and the
truth that the enemy could not tempt
them to wander into places of sin and
ruin. While there is much being done
in this line for the children. there is
still sad lack of what ought to be
done for them.
If every mother would teach her boy
to shun the wine cup as he would vi
per and early teach him that God
meant for him to be pure and true,
and in all his life an image of his mas
ter, and let him understand that none
but the pure in heart shall ever see
God, how many recruits from the ranks
of the boys of today would the saloon
or gaming house find?
What fearful thing it is to realize
that the dear little boys who, perhaps.
are innocently flying their kites or
tOcolbS tIlClI Ddiio tothy. WIN liz
thought of sin in their little hearts.
are only waiting for an opportunity to
learn of some evil one, calling himself
man, the way to the gilded saloon,
and through that gate to the very
depths of sin and degradation. The
rum-seller knows that he must have
boys or his business must soon stop.
The poor old men who are wasting
their lives and money for strong drink
now cannot last always and there will
be great need for recruits. Oh! that
every mother in Mississippi would say
by Gods help they shall not take my
boy. Why, our grand old State would
soon be swept SO clean it would be like
a little paradise. Saloons could not
flourish as they do today.
Mississippi leader. (Jackson, Miss.) 1892-1895, 1893-08-15

One of the most interesting items to
be given of the w. G. II. U. work in

MONDAY prayer meetings held at Will

1.-The light of the world from the
first has been manifested in Willard

which are held every day, increase in
members and interest and power. At

how they "happen" to come in.

The president of one of our local

lie was surprised to learn that the
w. c. r. U. did fight against tobacco;
and it is surprising to many to find
that the w. G. r. U. has any special
departments of work except simply
trying to close the saloons. Since this
is the case think it would be well to
take up the different departments OF
work and discuss them through the
column. 1t will be great help of our

One of the finest tributes ever paid
to our organization was that of Mrs.
Mary Lowe DIckinSou'S at the mass
meeting of the w. G. L. L. Sunday af-
ternoon in connection with the We
mans Congress. 1t was this THAT
the Woman'S Christian Temperance
Union sits today sceptcrcd and thron-
ed and crowned at the center of the
worlds cncircling organizations Of Wd-
men, is not so much because its battle
is against the foe of childhood and
motherhood and the home; not be
cause its grand crusade is one of res
cue TO lost manhood; not because of its
hundreds of thousands Of members,
or the multiplied agencies of its nu-
merous departments of human help
fulness, as it is because it has struck
the one chord to which the hearts of
women answer. II made Il Union.
That was great. 1t made Il Temper
ance union. That was greater. It
made "a Woman's Temperance Union,
and that was greatest. But it made a
Woman's Christian Union, and that,
and that alone. made greatness in any
degree possible to all the rest. Nay, |
dare go even further; venture to say
that not even such masterly and mag
nificent leadership as this white.rib
bon army has known. could have
borne its victorious banner to the gate
of every welcoming nation, or have
lifted the towers of yon fair Temple to
the sky. had not the hearts Of the Wo-
men of the world been already the
temples of the living God. 1t was the
voice of Christ that called together
the white haired and white soIled Wo-
men of that first crusade, and it is the
Christ in the union, the Christ in the
temperance and the Christ in the wo
man that has been. in all this move
ment, the secret and source of its sue
cess and power
