Standing a Treat.

But since my first day rs m Office hand

When the office IS closed, II you will all

And there We can all have something to
drink
The boys were delighted to get me at
last.
And many sly Jokes to each other we're
passed.
The office wos closed at the usual time,
And said i, Come, boys wen have a
drink that is prime.
They followed me, wondering at my
change OF mind
/ led on in front, they followed behind.
Stop where are We going ? cried one
in dismy.
Why straight to my tavern. and this is
the way
In startled surprise they tsirly did
jump
As l stopped right in front Of the cold
water pump.
Now, boys, here We are, IN stand treat;

In the silence that followed not one
voice was heard.
But they all skunk away Without even

They have leased me no more. nor
have asked me to treat,
Though I fear they considered it rather

Itkink they viii never forget their sur
prise,
And hope they in future will learn to
be wise"
And that father was proud of his noble
youne son,
Who bravely a victory for Temperance
had won.

Literature.
BY MISS SUE JOHNSON.

OF all our various departments
of work. that of Literature is,
perhaps, the most important.
Is the Union small ? This
work can be successfully carried
on. In thinly settled communi-
ties, isolated from towns, rail
roads, and the busy centers of
life, there is it seems the greater
need of work in this line. Not
having the money to secure the
bright gifted speakers who would
educate our people in the truths
of Prohibition, we have but to
employ the printed leaAet and
the papers treating of this sub.
ject. For only a small sum of
money these silent but convinc-
ing messengers are in our hands
and we send them out as we will.
That mother who isindifferent
to this nightly enemy of her
home, may be won by putting
into her hand one of our mothers
leaflets.
Every man who is not working
for the home, against the saloon.
needs to beawakened to his duty
on this question. How better
reach his conscience than by
enlightening him through our
department of literature. Put
into these homes for a few
months Tor years. a prohibition
paper. Will not indifference give
place to active interest
People are bound 10 read some
thing, shall not we see to it that
they read in the upward direc-
tion /:
The spoken word heard once
may be soon forgotten, but the
printed page read in the quiet
resting hour will likely be re-
membered. In these thoughtful
moments truths make the deep
est impressions. Those who
will not go to hear a prohibition
speaker. win read the strongest
arguments.

Two Young Prisoners stolen by q
Mob at Essex Market.

Mrs Emily Leiberman. OF Orchard

property from her store this morning
and brought them to the Essex Market
Police Court. where she found the door
closed. The street In front OF the
courthouse was crowded with people.
The two boys were crying and pleading
to be set free.
The policeman stationed at the door in.
formed Mrs. Lieberman that Justice
Slmms had ordered the doors closed. and
that she should take her prisoners to the
nearest police station. As Mrs. Lieber-
man started to go away with her pris.
oners two men suddenly sprang before
her and tore one Of the boys from her.
He darted away amid the cheers of the
people who also rescued the other one
at the same time almost upsetting the
woman In the street.
The cheering was so great that Justice
Slmms. who was still listening to the
cases brought before him. raped loudly
for order. Two officers of the Court
Squad chased the crowd away. No ar
rest was made.
