TO provide for their removal and the re-,

on ordinary occasions It Is probable
that the disciples would perform this
humble Office by turns where there was
no slave to dischargesit for oil. But on
this evening. when they gathered for that
last supper, all took their places at tho

OF the disciples betrayed the slightest
knowledge OF the fact. or that any such
custom existed Why was this?
We are told ''there had arisen among
them a contention which OF them was &c.

Heated then, ana angry, and full OF
resentment and pride, these men hustle

We are distressed that some OF our re-.
marks on the LIQUOR question seem, to

Boston News which replies at some length
to recent article contained In The
Times-Dispatch. commenting on a letter
OF President Davis on the subject Of
prohibition. Mr., Davis said that the ev,,
resulting from alcoholic drinks was IN
the abuse, and not In the use.' The
South Boston News contends, on the
other hand. that the only way to pre-
vent the abuse OF alcoholic drinks Is to
abstain from the use OF them. and asks

Certainly not. Total abstinence Ia one
way, and the safest way to prevent the
abuse OF alcoholic drinks, but many men

drinks to their comfort II not to tha,
benefit without abusing them,
II Is nonsense TO say that no man car
use alcoholic liquors without getting
drunk, without injury to himself or Il
others, And because It is nonsense ane
because It is not true, we have contro
yerted the statement. It never does an,
