THE GREAT DESTROYER
SOME STARTLING FACTS ABOUT
TIE VICE or lNTeMPERhNcs.

h Fate OF Farmer Giles Should Be
a Terrible Warning-Lost in Sight
of Home Take Caro- How You
Tamper With Drink.
The snow was lying thickiy on the
ground and the evening shadows were
falling, as Farmer Giles left his home
to spend an hour or two at b village
saloon. When he arrived there he
found q group of kindred spirits gath
cred round the bar. Amid jest and
song the drink flowed freely. At clos
ing time Farmer Giles could not walk
steadily. He staggered along, in COM
pany with two others, until he got in
sight of home, when they took a turn
to, the right and left him to pursue bis
way alone. In bidding his companions
goodbye, however, he had turned
round, and so, instead Of going straight
on along the high road, he walked into
a field through an open gate, and wan
dered round and across the field, un-
able to find his way out again.
=. Mrs.%Giles waited for her husband
until 11.3O, and then she decided that
he must have been too drunk to walk,
so had stayed at the saloon.
A man passing along the road in the
early morning was startled by hearing
the cry Lost! LOST" He stopped and
listened, but it was dark and the cry
was not repeated. 1T must have been
my fancy. How could any one be lost
close to the high road?" The man pur-
sued his way, whistling and knocking
his hands to keep himself warm, for 1t
was freezing keenly and bitterly cold
Next morning Farmer Giles did not
return home, and his wife sent to the
saloon to inquire about him. The COM
panions with whom he left were next
visited, and then a search was insti-
tuted, which resulted in footsteps be-
ing traced through snow into a field.
There they made Zigzag paths in every
direction, crossing and recrossing, until
it became hopeless to attempt to follow
them. ..N..
The search party accordingly divided
and went in different directions across
the field, which was a long one, and lay
parallel with the road. Soon a loud
Shout told I that some discovery had
been made, and the rest Of the party
rushed to- the spot. There, seated
against the hedge, exactly opposite his
own door, sat Farmer Giles, stif and
cold, frozen to death. .. ,
At the inquest the man who had
heard the cry in the early morning told
of his hearing his last despairing cry.
So Farmer Giles persisted, a victim to
%drink-lost in sight Of home!
Take care how you tamper with
drink.-National Advocate.

Adroit Rascals.

Some Of the Cinnamon of the Phil
ippines are adroit rascals. One of
their tricks is in removing whisky
from a bottle and substituting vinegar
without breaking the seal. They do
this by soaking off the label and drill
ing a tiny hole in the side of the bot
tie. They then take out the whisky
and substitute a liquid similar in color,
fill I'D the hole and cover it with the
label.

Yet Thou art near.
I feel Thee all around
In love EMBEDDING me;

And from Thy face there shines
A light upon my way;
While thought Of Thee divines
What Thou dost say.
Thy words are silences
That tell of perfect peace;
With heavenly calm they bless,
And troubles cease.
As in Thy love 1 lie,
Yet closer would | be;

For Discouraged Workers.

The pastor went home heart sick.
To MIN it seemed that the Sunday eve
ming sermon had been a failure. d
past week hal been a busy one. a sac
funeral and q three days denominay'
tional gathering away from home had
taken up nearly all the weeks time,
and caused = ariness Of body and
mind. AS a result the evening sermon
was hurriedly and imperfectly pre-
pared. The pastor was not himself,
the congregation seemed listless and a.
few persons slept. The pastor was
discouraged, and felt that the service
was q failure, and was sure that the
people felt the same.
But with God strength is made per-
feet in weakness" He can use the
weakest for His glory, and turn SEEM
ing failure into success. The next eve
ming the pastor had aical. The caller
was a young man, a college graduate,t
who occupied an influential position
as a professor in an academy. HeSha6a
been trying and wanted to be an ear
nest Christian, but because Of perpleN-
ties and honest doubts had not seen his
way clear to unite with a church and
stand out publicly and boldly for his
Saviour. An illustration and a thought
in the sermon had helped him. He
saw that he could be q sincere, humble.
faithful follower of Jesus and a true,
consistent men Der Of the church In
spite Of his ~perplexities and doubts.

church and follow his Saviour In bap-
tism. ~

ing that His WORD shall not return
unto Him void" but "shall accomplish
that which" He "pleases." And the
pastor prayed earnestly for strength to
believe that work for God done. the
best one can do under the circum-
stances, although hurriedly and imper-
fectly performed, Is neverEa failure.
The pastor now gives the incident to
others that it may encourage and
strengthen discouraged faithful pels-
tors and Christian workers.-Standard.

The assessment roll as prepared for

MEXICAN IN LARoRED WHISPERS
TELLS DETAILS TO SURGEONS
Series Of Cuttings in Which Spanish
and italian Residents Are Involved
Worry the PoIiee-DlfficuIt to Arr
rest Principals In These Cases

Pedro Sappala, a Mexican section
hand living at $40 Center street, lies at
the county hospital in critical condi-
tion, the result of a stabbing affray IN
Macy street early yesterday morning.
The police expect to take Sappala's 8
dying declaration today, and in the
event of his death a charge of murder
will be made against his assailant, as
yet unidentified.
Sappala was taken to the receiving
hospital and Police Surgeon e. w.
Cook dressed the wound. He found q
deep cash, which probably punctured
the lung, as symptoms of pneumonia
began before the removal OF the
patient to the county hospital.
The injured man could not talk above
a whisper, but he managed to tell the
attendants that he became involved in
a quarrel with some men on Macy
street early in the morning and one OF
them stabbed him in the breast.
He said he knew the fellow by sight,
but professed ignorance as to his name.
Within the past three months there
have been number OF cutting affairs
and several men have died as the re-
suit of their wounds. The police say
most OF the stabbing ARRAYS follow
drinking bouts.
Several alleged italian murderers are
now at large. although descriptions
have been sent to every city In the
west
Mexicans and italians as a rule hide
the principals In cutting affairs, the
police say, making 1t difficult TO arrest
the guilty party.
