From Illinois.

In our own particular field we would
mention in response to a sentiment of
Philadelphia Yearly Meeting (Woman's g
Brancb) that we are endeavoring to do
work in the cause of social purity, one
phase being the holding of "woman's
meeting" of our session during the sit
tings of our yearly meeting, at which
topics pertaining to home life and the
duties of parents, the Importance of
providing good literature for the chill
dren, and selecting suitable associates
for them, the establishing of an equal
standard of purity for both sexes, the
reclamation of erring women, ETC.,
are presented and fully discuss
ed. We find an increasing in
terest in the subject in our society, and
as truth develops in the mind the
equality Of men and women is being
mole and more emphasized, not only in
our body, but in the world.
We see that no home can be so shell
tered as to be sure of escaping the
blighting Influence of the greatest moral
sin of our age, and happy are they whose
parents wisely teach son and daughter
that they have equal responsibilities be-
fore God for purity of life.
We find the more we labor in this line
the more our sympathies are awakened;
the greater appear the needs, and we
realize that In helping others to higher
standard of purity, we are lifting our.
selves still higher, perhaps fulfilling the
sentiment that
"Heaven's gate is shut to him who comes
alone,
Save then a soul and it will save thine own"

One evening of the B. W. T. A. con.

numbered fully five thousand. Lady

the platform were Lady Henry Somerset,
Canon Barker, DR.. W. ]. Collins (char-

Battersea said that the work at Duxhurst
was If an unique character, and if it was
the only outcome of the association to
which she was proud to belong, that
body had justified it's existence over and
over again. Canon Wilberforce warmly
congratulated the association on attain
ing it's twenty first year, and was cheered
when he said that there was no language
which could exaggerate the awful evil of
intemperance. Lady Henry Somerset, in
an eloquent speech, urged that something
more rational and scientific should be
done for habitual inebriates. The Farm
Colony was meant to be an object lesson
of what could be done on totally different
lines.

relative to currency reform and the need
of commission to investigate the finan-

The Tariff bill was passed by the
United States Senate on Wednesday
afternoon by the decisive vote of 3S to 2S,
and there is general rejoicing throughout
the country over the fact, and that the
end of the tariff reconstruction is now SO
near. The affirmative vote was cast by
thirty five Republicans, Jones, of
Nevada, and Mantle, and one Dem ocrat,
McEnery. The negative vote was cast
by twenty-five Democrats, two Populists,
Harris of Kansas, and Turner, and one
Silver Republican, Cannon. Eight
Republicans were paired for the bill
and eight Democrats against l.. The
Senators present and not voting were
Populists, 5, viz: Allen, Butler, Heit-
field, Kyle and Stewart. Silver Repub
licans, 2, viz: Teller and Pettigrew
Following the passage of the bill a reso.
luton was agreed to, asking the House
for conference, and Senators Allison,
Aldrich, Platt of Connecticut, Burrows,
Jones of Nevada, Vest, Jones of Arkansas,
and White, were named as conferees on
the part of the Senate. The bill as it
goes back to the House re enacts the
antitrust sections of the Wilson act,
while the reciprocity and retaliatory
provisions are substitutes for thoss of the
House. One of the most important new
provisions added by the Senate is that
placing stamp tax on bonds, debentures
and certificates of stock. Aside from
these more important changes, the bill as
it goes back to the House has 974 amend
ments of various degrees of Importance,
which must be reconciled between the
two branches of Congress. The Tariff
debate began on May 20. on which day
Mr.. Aldrich, on behalf of the Finance
Committee, made the opening staten ent
on the bill. The actual consideration of
the bill began the next day, when
Schedule A, relating to chemicals, was
taken up. The debate has been con.
tinuous since then, covering six weeks
and one day. 1t is now being considered
by the Conference Committee of both
Houses, and it is hoped that an agreement
will reached in few days, so that the
bill can become law within week at
least.

tain our World Convention in October
is in many respects unique among the
cities CT the world. A Ajournalistic visitor
thus describes it: Toronto is the most
beautiful city in North America. 1t is
as artistic as Boston without Boston's
compression; it is as clean aud open as
Philadelphia without Philadelphip'
diffusion. Its public and private build
ings-its sky scrapers'-have an archi,
tectural unity which Chicago and New
York can not boast. 1t bears no marks
of wear, of use, of crime, of passion, of
poverty; it is city without slums and
without noise. 1t contains one church
for every eight hundred inhabitants-a
greater pecentage than any other city in
the world. Toronto is the center, CON-
mercially, religiously and educationally
as well as politically, of the opulent
province of Ontario. The women of
Toronto" continues this enthusiastic ad-
mirer, ''are the prettiest and best dressed
on the American continent. The
apparently eternal sunshine with which
the city is bathed tempts them out Of
DOORS" The total number of sunshiny
days last year in Toronto was, it is stated,
1856. The average number OF cloudy days
per month is less than five, and for
several years there have been none at all
during the three summer months. We
feel sure that in addition to the regularly
appointed representatives of the National
W. G. T. U. large number of visiting
delegates from our white. ribbon consti-
tuency this side the border will be more
eager than ever to avail themselves of
the privileges Afforded by the World s
