The class of men called Commercial
travellers" are supposed to be anything
but prohihs, yet, it is a fact, that there
is an order among them which in
culucates total abstinence. We have
been told by many that commercial
men have to treat, it is part of their
business / personally interviewed
one on the subject and he assures me
that not only is it not necessary, but
that the total abstinence men are hold
ing positions, while the one who treats
and takes treat is being discharged.
The same man was recently in group
of men and was offered cigar, "no
thank you, l don't smoke" We'll, let
us go and get glass of wine or beer?
Thank you, 1 don't drink" What, a
commercial traveller and don't smoke
or drink? Yes. a commercial traveller
that neither smokes or drinks, aud one
that says his prayers every night and
can get up and sells more goods than
any of you who smoke and drink"
Who says such a temperance sermon
as that is not leading on to victory?

Arnold, who was willing to sacrifice
