BETTER STOP DRINKING.

Why? For your own good. What
does that mean? IF fellow wants
a drink, he wants it.
Yes. but just look at yourself
minute. See how the color of
your face is changing; how red
and watery your eyes are getting,
how your hand trembles. and how
unsteady your limbs are. Look at
your clothes, seedy and threadbare,
ragged Look at your associates,
look at your pocketbook; look at
your reputation among men; look
at your condition before God, and
see if you had not better stop
drinking for your own good.
Why? For the sake of your
home. Go into it and look about
you. See the sad face of your
wife; the spoiled faces of your
children; look at their clothes, at
the table spread for them with such
scanty fare; the beds they lie on
and the lives they must live; the
kind of men and women they must
be if they follow you; and then
think that you and the drink are
responsible for it all; you are re-
sponsible if your wife should com
init suicide, if your boys should be-
come criminals, and your girls fall
into lives of shame; and under these
circumstances do you not think you
had better stop drinking? Why
should you not stop? What has
strong drink ever done for you that
you should love it? What has the
saloon ever done for you that you
should contribute of your hard
earnings for it?
This it has done: robbed you OF
your strength, your good name,your
money. your good clothes, your Pc
sition, your home, and left you like
a stranded hulk on the shores of a
desert island, with no hope of man
hood here or OF heaven hereafter.
And yet if you will stop drinking,
sign the pledge and accept the sal
walton of Christ,you shall be made
a new creature, with a right to a
new world, a new life, a new name,
and eternal JOY. Therefore, "cease
to do evil; learn to do we'll" "If we
be willing and obedient We shall eat
the good of the land. Work al
Home.

fered with the federal authorities would
be called out if necessary to secure them

heads of the postofiice department as
to what should be done in the matter
Inspector McKelvey tonight notified the
police of three precincts that mail
car would be started tomorrow morn
ing, and instructed the men to be in
preparation to see that the car was not
