Recognizing the magnitude of the evils
which intemperance causes to individuals
and to society, and feeling it to be the
duty of us all to assist as far as possible
in removing temptation from the way of
everyone, therefore we most earnestly
request of each and all whom this appeal
may reach to refrain from offering intoxi-
cants to any who may be their guests on
New Years Day, and thus aid in removing
the blight of intoxication from one OF our
happiest holidays"

A tramp entered police station late

There was nothing uncommon about
this; 1t is a thing which happens in each
police station in the city many times during

carried under his arm what looked TO the
average policeman like little coffin, but
one OF the musical ''coppers'' recognized
that II probably had at some time or other

station thought that it contained at
that moment anything more unusual than
some cheese and bread wrapped in brown
paper and perhaps piece OF sausage and
maybe few other cold victuals.
As the tramp leaned against the golden
rail the surrounding policemen began 10

A communication to the London Photo
graphic association sets forth the fact that
aluminium has much higher kindline
point than magnesium, and consequently
when aluminium filings are blown or dust
ed through an ordinary flame they do not
ignite, as they are not in theflame sufficient
ly long to become heated through; again
IL heated in crucible to white heat
aluminium scarcely oxidizcs, as the meta
does not boil at this temperature and q
very thin film of oxide protects the sur
face. Magnesium would boil and blaze In
white hot crucible, as the vapor would
burn; If, however, the fine powder OF
aluminium be taken and blown or busted
through n flame it becomes heated TO the
igniting point, and, weight for weight
yields a moro powerful light than mag
uesium. Tho commercial aluminium
bronze powders contain, however, u traot
of greasy material, which prevents thu
grains readily separating, and if blown
through u flame or used In an ordinary
lashlight such powder tends to blow
through in clots, and large proportion
escapes combustion, but this grease may
be driven Off or destroyed by heating the
bronze powder to the melting point Of zinc.

GIRLS, AS YOU GO ALONG.


Come, all you fair young housewives and lis
ten unto me
Il mean those lucky ones who are from servant
bondage freel,
And some advice I'll give you in n simple little
song,
with the simple little chorus of-Girls, as you
go along.
Oh. as you go along,
Leave everything where it should be, girls, as
you go along.
You take fancy for cake, late in the after
noon,
And flour. butter, sugar, eggs and milk and
bowl and spoon
And other necessary aids tho kitchen table
throng.
Don't let them stay; clear them away, girls. as
you go along.
Oh, as you go along.
Put each one back In its right place, girls, as
you go along.
And then you'll find how easily a great deal
can be done
Without your being stirred TO death" at setting
Of the sun,
And though sometimes, in spite Of care, things
seem to turn out wrong,
Twill always pay you to smooth the way, girls,
as you go along.
Oh, as you go along,
80 never leave your work behind, girls, as you
go along.

And II, like some winged bird. she cieaves the

And leaves thee spent and stricken on the

That she may know thy valor and thy worth.
Then shall she come, unwilling all her charms,
Giving thee JOY for pain, and smiles for tears,
And thou shalt clasp her In thy longing arms
The while she murmurs music In thine ears
But ere her kiss has faded from thy cheek,
She shall flee from thee over hill and glade,
And thou must seek--aye, ever seek and seek.

sober and conservative manner.
The new plantation will be next
to the Eva Plantation, and if the
soil will give as good harvest as
has the EVA soil the new COM

The proposed stock capital is
81 100000. If the plantation is
to go into operation in 1895 as

THE PHARISEES.

/ The Advertiser devoted CON
siderable space last week in laud,
ing the super natural generosity
OF the missionaries. and as an in
stance we were told that the wife
OF John E. Bush had "sent the
hat around and that the said
virtuous missionaries had res
pended in most generous man
ner. OF course, the saintly flock
felt proud and thanked provi-
dence that they were better than
the rest of the community, but
we sinners did feel little scept-
zeal. Upon investigation we
learn that the only sum received
by Mrs. Bush, who by the way
did not pass the hat around was
$500 from Mr.. W. o. Smith
The muniiieent sum is ready to
be returned whenever the donor
should wish and the depleted
treasury need it. His ExcelIencv
may have been very well mean
ing. but his generosity was mis-
placed under the circumstances |
and the blowing of trumpets in |
