practical war on Drink.

hood will be as universally responded to
as the appeal of the employer who says,
''Take drink now and then draw $1OO
month, abstain from drink and draw
$110" Employers would be entirely
within their right in inaugurating such
plans, and union labor would doubtless
favor the innovation, as the extra pay
is distinctly bonus to abstainers and
in no wise affects employees who do
not wish to participate. The value of
the employees who do not drink is, as
rule, fully 10 per cent. more than that
of the employee who takes a drink
when he wants it." Life insurance
companies are recognizing the fact
that mans chances of long life are
better if he is an abstainer, and plans
are afoot to underwrite the lives of alb
stainers at lower rates than can be OBJ
tanned by other men. Let the youth
of the land know that abstinence will
be repaid by higher salaries and lower
life insurance rates, to say nothing of
better health and longer life, and the
cause of temperance will rally more re-
cruits than can be mustered by any

Gen. Stoessel, the unfortunate COM

agter making a defense the stubborn
ness and brilliancy of which won the
admiration of the world, has returned
to his country without receiving the
enthusiastic reception that was un-
doubtedly due him. Very few army
and navy oficeas met him at the rail-
road station, and his reception by the
Russian people was decidedly cold.
This experience is very much what all
men who have done their full duty, buv
lost, must expect. The world claims a
victor no matter how doubtful his true
title tn distinction might be. but it has
little in the way of praise for the van
pushed general, no matter how heroic
his achievements may have been. I'm
partial history will do Stoessel Justice,
and will give him a place among the

probably to that accorded NoOi the

There's none to fill her place.
One of sweet affection,
One we love so dear;
Was loved by all connection
And all who knew Thee here.
We miss Thee. Yes we miss thee.
At morning, noon and night,
We miss Thee here and everywhere,
Thy sunny face so bright.
We miss the silvery prattle,
When evenings hours have come,
And long for Thy dear presence
To cheer our lonely home.
Miss Thee, yes we miss Thee,
But in Heaven Thou art at rest;
No angel there is brighter
Among the pure and blest.
No sounds of sweeter laughter,
Or Angels, pure and fair,
Are found in the hereafter
Than are Lenna who is there.
So grieve not, father, mother;
In Heaven where all is well,
She comes with the first to greet us,
With joy their tongues 60 tell.
Of joys more pure in Heaven,
Of love the Savior told,
And how the Angels Learken
To the lamb within the fold.
So we must spare our darling
To God, and Angels fair,
No soul more fit for Heaven.
Than our Lenna who is there. X
