"a high-grade position Of which but

der which it has grown.
s.Of course, tobacco manufacturers
.rdaavor TO use the same kind OF to-
bacco all the time, but circumstances
IT times render this impossible. AS an
illustration, our company had bought

and cigarettes for the year, when an
Of a sudden our storehouses were de-
stroyed by fire and our stock went OUT

TEMPERANCE THOUGHTS
EIevating Influence Of White
Ribbon Workers,


may be no great accomplishments
visible, and some times, TO all ap-
pearances, the organization might
be dead, but where there is an
earnest conscientious white rib
boner there is just as sure to be
influence as there is where the
leaven is put in the meal. The
number of white ribboners in the
Indian Territory averages about
one in every one thousand per-
sons-a small average, but aleaven
nevertheless; for every member OF
the w. C. T. U. is backed by the
best educators in the territory,
most ofthe ministers and some OF
the best newspapers, backed by |
the United States law and the
ant.saloon league. backed by the
national and worlds w. @. L. u,
and when the Lord also is with
them, who can be against themY
The loyal white ribboner may
do nothing more wonderful than
express disapproval or disgust
concerning immoral shows or re-
frain from using whiskey as
medicine in her family, or sign a
petition for the passage OF some
reform bill, or express herself as
being in favor of only moral and
temperance men being elected to
office; yet she is exerting an lnfiu-
ence and creating temperance SEN
timent. Who can judge the work
Of the little temperance bandY
s'Judge not that ye be not judged
There are many people who
could render good service unto the
Lord in the W. G. 7. U. lines Of
work if they only would. Those
who believe children should be
taught the effects Of alcohol and
tobacco, those who desire to see a
higher state of morals among the
young men, those who believe In
q
more intelligent motherhood,
] those who would stand for law
} enforcement, would, if united IN
! a christian temperance band
cause an influence that could be
felt as well as seen. The W. U
