Car and Temperance Reform.

The Gar of Russia is said to be
taking a personal inbrest in the
temperance reform in his country
and is lending his influence to modify
and stay the injurious results of the
dram house and to provide counter
resorts. Under his favor the govern
ment is cooperating with temperance
reformers by supporting eating
houses, coffee houses, reading rooms,
and even public places of amusement
in all parts of the empire. One of
the most noteworthy resorts of this
character is the governmental build
ing in st. Petersburg. Some one in
describing it says: Here are numer-
Gus reading-rooms, lecture-rooms, and
a splendid library, and in the garden
outside any number of little pavilions,
summer houses, and places for na-
tional games for grown people and
children. Numerous bands play Sc
lect music. The whole institution
was planned by the young ear, who
very often visits it. The establish
ment is a brilliant success, and to
visit it is real pleasure. No liquor
is sold, no intoxicated person is adj
mitted, not an indecent word is
heard, and the whole place il filled
with happy, laughing, good natured
crowd, enjoying themselves as child

THE GOLDSEEKER.

On tire canvas of your mind
Draw, with cutting strokes and keen,
Er7zeu sky and glistening sand,
-AEzS but scorchng winds between;
ZFf-9w a lizard on a rock,
And a rattler, half asleep,
Where the heat waves writhe and twist
and the hot air seems to creep.
Seey On the horizon line
Eimns a tiny moving speck.
And a vulture in the air
Hanging with repulslve neck
GN0da-ing where rider comes
Lurching like a man in drink
Horse and rider as they come
Seem to shrivel up and shrink.
An the riders eyes are shut,
And he babbes curious things
OF a home and one he loved
Woodland ways, and hidden springs;
And the yellow gold is there.
Weighing down his saddlebags,
Dragging man and horse to death
As the quicksand sucks and drags.
Now the lizard gi6es away;
lazily the RATHER swings
INTO coil, and, argus-eyed,
Loud his battle challenge springs.
IGDt the riders ears are Gulled.
And the steed gives naught Of heed
As the fangs are driven home
Stumbling onward, falt ring kneed.
Now the vulture lower droops
As the molten sun declines,
And the coming of the night
Seems to still the parching Winds
W bile the sultry purple gloom
Hides a shape whose tale is told.
Horse and riGer are at rest
Desert sands reclaim their gold

demon unusually clamorous. At last
the days duties were over, and rest
ing his head upon his hands Gerald
Thorn muttered: my God! has il
come to this? Am | such slave?"
Fate in the person of Fred Mains
awaited him below. No sooner had
he emerged into the open air than
that individual slapped him upon the
shoulder, saying:
Hello, Gerald! old fellow, how are
you?"
When opposite the city drug store,
Fred turned in, and Gerald in the
midst of an animated conversation
followed, without noting where they
were until inside.
Here, Gerald" said Fred, ''as a
druggist, you ought to be able to tell
whether this is the proper thing for
any sick friend, or not" Reluctantly
Gerald placed the bottle to his lips
and tasted.
'All right" he said, giving the bot
tie back to Fred. Where one little
demon had plead before ten were
pleading now. On his way to his
rooms two hours later Gerald me-.
the senior member of his firm and
received a reprimand that well-nigh
sobercd him.
WAS that meeting with Fred ac-
cidental?" he asked himself, remem-
boring Fred Mains admiration for
Mabel Lee.
"Our reformed friend stepped into
the trap slick enough" said Fred
Mains two days later, and then he
proceeded to give a detailed account
of what happened, laughing uproari-
ously as he did so. He did not see a
slight figure glide from the store, on
whose face was written wrath and
Indignation.
The evening following, Mabel Lee
CHANGED to meet Fred Mains. She
was about to pass him with slight
recognition, when he detained her

for Liquor when He Learned to
Depend Upon the Divine Arm.

Don't worry, little mother; it's
not SO bad as you think-theres no
danger of your son becoming n
drunkard! Pride and my social
standing forbid that"
Promise me, Gerald" said Mrs.
Thorn, whose heart had known many
misgivings in the past, promise me
that you will abstain from drinking
in the future"
Kissing the upturned face of his
mother, Gerald Thorn solemnly ut
tered, Il PROMISE" and Immediately
left the room, well satisfied with
himself and with his prospects for
the future.
Joyfully, hopefully, he assembled
the steps of the Lee home, and soon
the question that had burned in his
heart and trembled on his lips had
been asked. And the answer had
come, gently, but firmly: mo.
Gerald; | cannot trust my happiness
to the keeping of any young man
given to strong drink"
Had a thunderbolt from a clear sky
fallen at his feet, Gerald Thorn would
not have been more astonished. He
resented the imputation. Could he
deny it? No.
Looking into those honest brown
eyes before him he knew it was use
less for him to argue; that his only
hope lay in proving himself no longer
guilty. From that moment neither
Heaven nor earth held anything half
so dear to him as Mabel Lee. He
made no promises, nor exacted any
of her. His pride was deeply
touched, and for the first time in his
life he began to question his "sociai
standing"
His mind was made up. He would
quit. \ two months trial convinced
him that to do so he must seek
