One period of the decline Of the
Roman empire, you remember, was
marked by the activities Of Agripp1na.
In her second widowhood she. induced
the Emperor Claudius, her own uncle,
to marry her, and espoused his daugh-
ter, though already betrothed to an
other, to her own son, Nero. In or
der to bring the latter to the throne,
she ruined many rich and noble Ro
mans, excluded Britannicus, the son
of Claudius by Messalina, and final
ly poisoned the emperor, her husband
She then endeavored to govern
through her son, Nero, who was pro-
claimed emperor; but her ascendancy
proving intolerable, Nero caused her
to be put to death.
Other women, nearly as detestable
afterward sprang into the limelight
And in due time the Roman empire
fell.
The female of the species in Amer
lea, however, is busy conserving the
forests, taking the child from the mill
and sending him to school, improving
municipal housekeeping methods, bat
thing against the social evil.

II is sad commentary on the
church that the workers of tine
present temperance campaign have
to expend time and energy IN keep
ing church members-protesslng
christians right as to their duty
in the contest,
This is due perhaps to several
Asses, but primarily to the cum
ming and shrewdness of the saloon
people and their allies. They were
assured from the very start that
but few church people could be In
duced to line up as "wets," or in
favor of the saloon-to come
square out against prohibition
hence the nicely sugar-coated
local option pill has been prescrlb-
ed, and some good people are be
ing misled. You may be able to
swallow it without holding your
nose, but the coating is merely pre-
tense-the dose is liquor, and it
will prove nauseating when you
realize the deception.
Freemen have right to vote as
they choose, but your intelligence
and prayers should be called into
earnest exercise in order that yol
do no violence to your real convlc
lions and your profession as 6
member of Gods church.
The truth has been referred to II
these columns, is being proclaimed
all over Virginia: The issue is sim
DIV "for or against the sale o1
liquor in the State, for or against
the open saloon.
The processing christian who
fails to view the contest as one Of
Right against Wrong naturally
does not regard liquor as an evil
IF he does view it as an evil,
wrong, then he has the issue be-
fore him, plain and unmistakable-
