 We know that stimulants and opiates are sold under legal guarantees which make the government partners in the traffic. by accepting as revenue portion of the profits, and we know with shame that they are often forced by treaty upon populations, either ignorant or unwilling.
 We know that the law might do much, now left undone, to raise the moral tone of society, and render vice difficult
 We have no power to prevent these great iniquities beneath which the whole world groans, but you have power to re- deem the honor of the nations from anin- defensible complicity.
 We therefore come to you with the united voices of representative women of every land, beseeching you to raise the standard of the law to that of christian morals, to strip away the safeguards and sanctions of the state from the drink traf- fic and the opium trade, and to protect our homes by the total prohibition of these curses of civilization throughout all the territory over which your government | extends.

LIFE IN A JAPANESE CITY.

Theletter below copied from theAnsonia kBntinel, is from Rev. Willard l.. Beard,
 ho formerly preached at Staffordville,
 F4he recently married Miss Ellen l..
 inney of Putnam, a former teacher at Btaffordville, the two immediately sailing Tor Japan to enter upon missionary work Sat-, 1O,3O a. m., Nov. 19, '94. Five hours out of Yokohama en route for l Nagasaki, Japan.
 Dear Brother:-We had a great day yesterday, and while it is fresh ill mind m try to give you an account of it. AS the close of my last letter noted, we an- bhored in Yokohama harbor about a.m., yesterday. It is one of the most beauti- all harbors in the world. If you look at good sized map of Japan you will see that the city is situated at the upper end 'i5fa large bsA Before we reach the inlet to this bay, and all the way up it to the aity, the shores rise in 8 series of jagged foeks, high cliffs or gentle slopes, making variety for the eye, and in places the view is really magnificent. The villages gre built close to the shore on little fiat between two high hills, with few of the larger residence part situated part way up the slope.
 The roofs of tile and of thatch add to the beauty of the scene to our unaccus- toned eyes. The trees are much as you eAoo %hoyo in O,,, boroo forootc- +hoA ic part evergreen and part of the kind that shed their foliage annually. The tints are not as gorgeous as at home, however. The harbor is we'll fortified, there being several forts on the bluffs on shore and one large one on an island in the harhor,; while another is in process of constrnc- tion in the channel, and still another further up. The Japs are hnstlers when it comes to war; in fact, war has been their study for the past quarter of a cen fury. When we anchored we were only one of host of vessels and boats in the karbor. You must picture 8 different scene from anything you have seen to form 8 correct idea of this .harbor. None of, the large ships get within a mile of land, but lie off here in the bay like city on water, and each of the ships is sur- rounded by small fleet of native boats called sampans, some waiting to take pas sengers ashore, some with freight for the chips. Last night counted about twen- Ry of these craft of different sizes around

 ABSOLUTELY PURE
Training tO Sneak.

Bishop Wilberforce was noted for the variety of his speeches and sermons, even when they all treated of the same subject. His addresses at confrmations and at missionary meetings were re- markable for their variations on the same themes. A friend who had heard him speak day after day for several weeks in behalf of the Society For the Propagation of the Gospel, expressed his surprise that he could treat the same subject in such a variety of ways. The eloquent preacher replied:
 II owe my facility mainly to my fa- ther. He took pains to form in me the habit of speaking. He would see to it that I thoroughly acquainted myself with a given subject and then require me to speak on it without notes and trusting to the inspiration of the mo- ment for suitable words. This practice strengthened my memory and cultivated the power of mentally arranging and dividing subject.
 The Earl of Chatham trained his son, William Pitt, in similar way. Pitt was the familiar friend of William Wilberforce, the philanthropist, and the father of the bishop. Doubtless he learned from Pitt this method of culti- vating the faculty of thinking and speaking on one's legs. Youths Com panion.
