A NATIONAL EVIL.
An znia"ity "Ant Could he Put Away
Ii All Its Enemies Were
United.

Drunkenness is the greatest evil
Of this nation, and it takes no logical
process to prove that a drunken ma
ton cannot long be free nation.
Drunkenness is not subsiding, GER
tainiy it is not at a standstill, but it
is on an onward march, and it is a
double quick. There is more rum
swallowed in this country, and of a
worse kind, than was ever swallowed
since the first distillery began its
work of death. Where there was one
drunken home there are ten drunken
homes. Where there was one drunk
ards grave there are 20 drunkards'
graves.
If we could gather all the armies
of the dead drunkards, and have them
come to resurrection, and then add
to that host all the armies of living
drunkards, five and ten abreast, and
then if we could have you mount a
horse and ride along that line for re-
view, you would ride that horse until
he dropped from exhaustion, and you
would mount another horse and ride
until he fell from exhaustion. and
you would take another and another.
and you would ride along hour after
hour, and day after day. Great hosts,
in regiments, in brigades. Great
armies of them. And then if you had
voice enough stentoran to make
them all hear, and you could giveh he
command: Forward, march," their
first fra Nyn1,lI 10
tremble. Whichever way you look in
the community to-day, the evil is in
creasing.
Sermons setting forth the perils
that threaten tho destruction of our
American institutions would be verv
poorly planned sermons if they dol
not speak of drunkenness. Is it a
state evil, or is it a national evil?
Does it belong to the north, or does
it belong to the south? Does it be-
long to the east, or does it belong
to the west? All there is not an
American river into which it's tears
have not fallen and into which its
suicides have not plunged. What
ruined that southern plantation?
Every field fortune the proprietor
and his family once the most affiuent
supporters of summer watering
places. What threw that Sew Eng
land farm h'to decay and turned the
rDseate cheeks that bloomed at the
foot of the Green mountains into the
rallor of despair? What has smitten
every street of every village, town
and city of this continent with a
moral pestilence? Strong drink. o

SPIRITUAL SIGHT.
Only an Artist Sees the Sunset Tints
and Only the Pure in Heart
See God

One may easily carry 100 pounds if
the burden rests on his back, yet a
grain of sand in his eye will rob him
of sight. When the Master said that
the pure in heart see God, He did not
mean a time in the future; He meant
vision, now. How slight thing dims
that vision! The reason we do not
purer. Having eyes, we do not see;
something has blunted our eyesight.
When the old priest went into the
temple he saw the Holy Child; he
saw what others did not see-for his
heart was pure. There were many
blind eyes in the temple that day;
and the grief of it is they did not
know they were blind. You do well
to give some attention to spiritual
sight. You cannot expect to see God
through the opaque lenses of world
illness; it takes rare vision to see
Him.
81 never saw such tints in a sun
set," said a shallow critic to an art
list as they stood before the canvas.
Don't you wish you did?' was the
searching reply of the artist. No,
that man never saw such tints in
sunset; he was blind, and did not
know it. 1t takes rare sight to see
the changing hues of a summer sum
set. Only the lenses of a pure heart
ever bring the glory of God into TO-

no license carried in Richland Gem
ter, Wis, at the recent election, for
the first time in ten years. 1t was
adopted also in Grantsburg, Echo,
Cashton, Viroqua and Wyocena.
A curious effort in behalf of tenn
perance is noted on the part of the
Belgian government. a prize has
been offered for the best picture
showing the evils of drunkenness.
There is at least this to be said to
the credit of whisky: 1t never looks
you up; it will let you alone if you
let it alone. Gossip hunts you up,
whether you are in the game or not.

Mayor Leonard, of Waltham, Mass,
has issued an order to the police to
stop public whist parties. The craze
for the game has grown to such pro-
portions that residences have been
practically turned into gambling
halls.

Whether you live in Brooklyn or
New York, or Chicago or Cincinnati,
or Savannah or Boston, or Topeka,
or in any of the cities of this land,
count up the saloons on your own
| street, and see they are far out of
proportion to the increase of the
population. You people who are so
precise and particular lest there
should be some imprudence or rash
ness in attacking the rum traffic, will
have your son some night pitched
| into your front door dead drunk, or
your daughter will come home with
her children because her husband has,
by strong drink, been turned into a
demoniac. The rum fiend has de-
| spoiled whole streets of good homes
in all our cities. Fathers, brothers,
sons on the funeral pyre of strong
drink!
The dram-shop is a great caldron
of inquiry in our time. Anarcharsis
said that the vine bore three grapes;
the first was pleasure, the next was
drunkenness, and the next misery.
Every saloon above ground or under
ground is a fountain of iniouity. 1t
may have license and it may go
along quite respectfully for awhile,
but after awhile the cover will fall
off and the color of the iniquity will
| be displayed.
We might in this country - this
traffic perished-have less revenue,
but we would have more happy
homes, and we would have more
peace, and we would have fewer peo-
pie in the penitentiary, and there
would be tens of thousands of men
who are now on the road to hell who
would start on the road for Heaven.
Thou shalt speak my words unto them,
whether they will hear, or whether they

James was an only son,
A bright and noble boy,
A widows trust and pride,
a doting mothers joy.
He was at home and school
Both dutiful and kind,
OF honest, open heart,
OF bright inquiring mind.
The mothers wealth of love
She lavished on her boy;
To whom she fonGly chung,
Her only earthly joy.
Without his fathers hand,
Its guidance and restraint,
Sad change in time she saw,
Ard heard her sons complaint,
That home was not as bright
As scenes upon the street,
Where folly's songs were sung,
Hard by the scorner's seat.
Corrupt companionship,
With evil leaven fraught,
In body. spirit, soul,
Its subtle poison wrought.
The voice within at first
Condemns the lighter drinks;
Yet reason as he may,
He through indulgence sinks.
The mother patient bore
The folly of her child;
Her haart tie ooopv
Suppressed to accents mild.
She summoned all the strength

with the news that another day was

And the 9unners of Tigne woke to
reluctant life, and grumbled them
selves into uniform and pipe-clayed

gladness in two rough, honest hearts,
for shadow had rolled away with the
