Takes Advanced Ground.

The eleventh annual convention of
the National Temperance Society held
at Saratoga recently represented
many different temperance and re-
lig1ous organizations, state and ma
tional, therefore a great variety Of
views concerning methods of work
Hence the advanced ground taken by
that organization, as outlined in its
resolutions, is most hopeful and en-
couraging for the speedy formation of
platform, moral and civic,
upon which all temperance and
religious forces may unitedly
stand. Among the points up
on which the convention declared IT
self as heartily agreed" are: the para
mount responsibility of the church,
which Is advised to use only infer
mented wine at communion and to re-
frain from completely with the liquor
evil by allowing its members to make
gain out of the traffic; the delusion OF
license, high or low; prohibition, state
and national, legislative and constitu-
tional, as the ideal toward which we
are continually to strive, the election
to office of those men only who favor
the suppression of the drink traffic;
withdrawal of support from all politi-
cal pas'ties that sustain the evil; and
permission to woman to use her power
to the utmost. politically as well as in
other ways. 1t condemned alcohol as
unnecessary and harmful in the heal.
Ing of disease, and the use of intoxi-
cants on social occasions and In the
preparation Of food declared for the
abolition of the internal revenue sys-
tenn; protested against the sale Of rum
on Ellis Island; and asked that con.
gress allow no national legislation &c
oppose the effort of any district, how
ever small, to protect itself from the
liquor evil by prohibitory law.

A wilder country than that was at
that time 1t would be difficult to i'm
agine. Far apart there were few
wretched United States posts called by
courtesy forts" but the Navajoes
and the Apaches-the latter under the
famed Chief Cochise-made it unpleas-

distinguish that land
Every man In our party walked
with his rife at his back and his pis-

on our blankets at night our weapons
were within easy reach, and our pick
cts were as carefully posted as If we

indeed we might be said to be at all
times, for, though we did not often
catch sight of the willy savages we had
every reason to believe that they never
lost sight OF us.
La Sierra Madre. or the Mother

to think the man was mistaken, and

the steep mountainside, and a glance
told me that the remarkable looking
person on the creatures back was
neither Apache nor Navajo, but a
white man like ourselves.
This riders long hair and beard
looked to be as white as the snow
on the distant mountain peaks, and his
costume was a fantastic though de-
cidedly picturesque cross between the
dress of a Mexican and that Of a
Northwest hunter.

THE EMOTIONAL SLAv.

AffectIonate Impulses.
l was particularly struck by the
frank, unconscious way in which the
Russians of all classes showed their
love or affection for the relatives and
friends to whom they were bidding
good-by, says the Independent. The
Anglo-Saxon, although as faithful in
friendship and as affectionate, per-
haps, in disposition as the man of any
other race, has become so accustomed
to control himself and to check the
manifestation in public that he often
seems cold and unresponsive; but the
| Slav, with that complete absence of
self-consciousness which is one of the
greatest charms of his character, gives
unrestrained expression to his affec-
tlonate impulses, even though all the
world be looking on. No one, it seems
TO me, could have witnessed the part
ings of relatives and friends on the
Mini Novgorod landing stage that
Sunday afternoon without feeling in
his own heart of affectionate and sym
pathetic regard for a people so kindly,
so capable of deep attachment and so
unabashed of their emotions. Directly
under me, at the edge of the landing
stage, were standing two young army
officers in uniform, whom l afterward
came to know on the steamer as Pc
ter the Great" and "the artillery man"
They were apparently recent gradu-
ates from a military school, and had
just been assigned to duty in the army
of the Caucasus. Two richly and taste
fully dressed young women, one OF
them a sister, and the other, thought,
a sweetheart, had come to the landing
to bid them goodby. Just before the
steamer cast off her moorings a gray
haired, bearded peasant, in a heavy
sheepskin coat and top boots evident
ly an old family servant and probably
an emancipated serf-came rushing
down upon the landing stage to bid
the BARN." his young master, good
| by. He was bare-headed, his strong,
kindly face was bathed in perspiration
from anxiety lest he should be too late,
but he was in time. He bowed low
with respectful courtesy to the two la
dies. and then taking the young artil-
lery officer in his arms, he held him
long and closely to his heart, and
kissed him an both cheeks and on the
lips. Then, brushing the tears from
his eyes with the back OF his sun
burned hand, he said "Good-by

to the shore he took a position where
he could watch the steamer out of

1t is always well for any one to be
eeadfast In anything and everything
that is right, and especially should the
Christian be steadfast in his religion.
He ought to stand firm in his faith. The
believer who is wavering and uncer-
tain in his faith is weak in his reli-
gion and exerts very little influence for
good. Indeed 1t is a question whether
he does not do the cause OF Christian

The editor OF the American Monthly r.
view of Reviews makes some pertinent
comments on the recent shooting of strik-
ing miners by deputy sheriffs at Lattimer,
Pa He shows that the local prejudice
against these foreign born laborers was in
tense, that many Americans who had
worked in the mines before the foreigners
came had drifted into other occupations in
the Pennsylvania towns and villages of the
coal regions, and that the mine owners had
brought in more laborers than wereneeded
which helped TO keep wages close to the
starvation point, These conditions go far
to account for some Of the deplorable doings
at Lattimer.

HOw TO KEEP EMBROIDERED LIN
EMS BRIGHT AND FRESH

That hand work on wash materials is far
more desirable than on silk and velvet, so
popular few years ago, cannot be doubt
ed, yet many women com plain that the
colors fade and dinge so soon that the
work is labor thrown away. But this is
an error, for IL properly laundried, wash
silks may be kept fresh and bright until
the articles they adorn are past usefulness.
This doing of the embroidery is no dainter
work than that Of keeping it in good order,
and only by doing it herself can the tasty
woman have her fancy linens kept bright
and pretty.
When ready to do the work, select
bright day, fill small tub nearly full of
warm water and add little Ivory soap to
make suds, put each piece in and wash
carefully. After each article is clean,
rinse in slightly blue water, to which a
little thin starch is added, wiring and hang
in the shade. When dry, sprinkle, fold
and let stand half an hour. Iron on the
wrong side, pressing down heavily to
throw out the stitches of the embroidery.

The recent meeting of the American
Medical Association at Prohibition
Park gave cheering evidence of a
growing anti-alcohol sentiment among
the medical fraternity. One of the
most important papers read upon that
occasion was that of DR.. ]. w. Gros-
venor of Buffalo, N. Y, on "The Rela.
ton of Alcohol to Preventive Medi-
cine" After stating as a self-eyldent
fact that whatever Injuries health Is
antagonistic to any plans for the pro-
motion of health, the doctor arraigned
alcohol, upon scientific authority. as
an acrid, narcotic poison mot ONLY"
he says, ARE numerous diseases direct
ly traceable to its use, but as an indi-
rect, casual factor alcohol touches
nearly all the Ills to which human flesh
is heir" AS a sanitary measure, he de-
clared, the drinking saloon should be
suppressed. In the discussion which
followed the reading of this paper, .he
anti-alcohol advocates-so say the
newspaper reports-had decidedly the
best OF the argument.

great deal has appeared in the news
papers at different times about aluminium,
its properties and its uses. 1t was recently
announced that contracts had been signed
for the delivery in England of 1000 tons of
the crude metal of American manufacture.
General interest in the subject has led the
American Monthly Review of Reviews to
publish the first complete account of the
discovery Of American process for the re
duction of aluminium by electrolysis The
story of this discovery (Which resulted in
bringing down the price of the metal from
SIG to 30 cents a pouudl and its subsequent
application in manufacturing on a CONNER
cial scale is one of the most interesting
chapters in the recent annals of American
industrial progress. 1t is another instance
of the triumph of Yankee ingenuity and
energy. America now makes as much
aluminium in year as all the countries of
Europe together.
