GOD BLESS OUR DAD.

We happened into a home the other
night, and over the parlor door saw the
legend worked in letters Of red, "Wha;

the room was another brief, God
Bless our Home"
Now what's the matter with God
Bless our Dad" He gets up early,
lights the fife. bois an egg, and wipes
the dew off the lawn with his boots
while many a mother Is sleeping. He
makes the weekly hand out to the
butcher, the milkn.an and the baker,
and his little pile is badly demolished
before he has been home an hour.
IL there is noise in the night, Dad
is kicked in the back and made to 90
downstairs and find the burglar and
kill him. Mother darns the socks, but
Dad bought the socks in the first place,
and the needles ard the yarn after
wards. Mother does up the fruit; Dad
bought it all. and jars and sugar cost
like the mischief.
Dad buys the chicken for Sunday
dinners, serves them himself, and draws
the neck from the ruins after every
body else is served. What is Home
Without father?" Ten chances to one
1t is boarding house; father is under
slab. and the landlady is the widow.

faults, YOU may have lots of them, but
you are all right and we will miss you

GEMS OF THOUGHT.

Germany and Japan furnish the worlc
with two of the most significant tenn.
perance sentences Of the present cen.
fury: The Kaiser declared, The navy
that drinks the least alcohol will be the
winner. A Japanese officer, explaining
Japan's success in the war with Russia
stated. The Russians drank vodka,
we drank tea"
OF the many very remarkable har-
penings Of the great war that fell upon
Europe like bomb from the SKY, none
were more remarkable nor significant
than the surprising attitude of the
military toward drink. The day the Gear
declared war against Germany, he sign
ed decree stopping the sale of vodks,
which returned revenue of nearly
$500. 900, 900 per annum. At first the
order was temporary. Soon the benefic-
ial results became manifest. The best
people of the empire petitioned the
Car to make the order permanent.
October 20, 1914. the following dis
patch came firm the capital Petrograd:
The Russian government will never
again embark in the sale of alcoholic
drinks" The other belligerent nations
adopted drastic liquor reforms. And
the unheard-of thing happened-every
commander en- the European battlefielCs
was leading a sober army.
Up to the outbreak Of the war,
science, business and religion constitut-
ed the triumvirate openly opposed to
the liquor traffic. They now have
mighty ally in the military and naval
forces of the world. The European
war offers. amid all of its cruelties,
losses and hatreds, brightly shining
hope. viz. the destruction of war itself,
and the destruction of the traffic in
drink. If this code comes to fruition,
the war with all its cost in money and
in men will be worth the price.
