Temperance Cause.

Temperance Cause.
Rev. J. T. Mastin preached an eloquent
and vigorous sermon at Trinity Metho-
dist church Sunday morning from the
Scriptural text, Look not thou upon the
wine when 1t is red. &c. lie discussed the
subject in its several aspects of moderate
drinking, social drinking. the injury 10
ones self by indulgence In the cup. and
the harm to his fellow-man by example.
the duty OF total abstinence. and the re-
sponsibility of the Christian people for
any neglect OF opportunity to diminish
the great ravages of intemperance. lie
contended that the duty of total absti-
nence is clearly proven by Scripture. and
that no Christian has a right to subject
himself to such temptations as the wine
cup offers. nor to encourage by his ex-
ample a practice which enures TO the
dstrlment OF his brother nor yet to pa
tronize with his money a traffic which Is
