whom he needed In bis office. In an
swer to his advertisement a great
many applicants called. He rejected
the first because he would not look him
in the eye. 'The second man." said the
merchant, "was armed with a double
barreled recommendation from his pas

ness ability and good character; but,
though he looked me in the eye, l saw
that we could never hope to get along
well together, and so dismissed him.
The third interested me the moment he
stepped inside the door. He was poor

 For some time past it has been to many of our village people serious problem as to the reason why number of the young boys of our village have been able to procure intoxicating liquors. Instances have occurred where of late in this place these minors have procured intoxicants in some way and induced boys of tender years to indulge, and even going 30 far as to coercing them when they refused. We think that it is the privilege of every person to drink intoxicants if he choose 30 to do, but we deprecate any effort on the port of any one to induce any of our younger generations to become chained to the evils of intemperance. Parents should awaken to this fact and see as to whether their boys are permitted to be. come companions of any who would offer to child the taste of fluid that can and often does awaken in the child the dormant passions of intemperance which may exist and which if not awakened would in time be eradicated by the influence of nature itself.
