HOW TO EDUCATE.

HOW TO EDUCATE.
In the temperance education cam
paign now being vigorously carried on
in all parts of the country a special
lied system is advisable. DR.. Wells
Andrews, in Chicago Daily News,
puts this suggestion into words that
are well worth passing on.
Tell the lumber men of Michigan, he
says, how many thousands OF drinking
farmers will shingle their homes and
barns or build new ones as soon as
they quit their meanness." Tel the
shoe manufacturer of Massachusetts,
what it means to take all the. bare
feet of drunkards' children off the
ground. Tell the iron men of Penn
sylVania that new stoves will be need
ed in 100000 homes when the saloon
keeper ceases to get the money. and
tell the miners they will have work
all winter through getting coal enough
to put into those stoves. Tell the wool
growers of Ohio that everybody in this
country Is going TO be wrapped in
wooden and sleep under blankets when
the billiards. blow, and the men no
longer heat up with liquid fire" in or
der to exterminate their families with
atmospheric cold. Tell the cattle rails
ers OF the West and stockyards men
in Chicago that there is going to be
beef on thousands Of tables, where
now there are few cold potatoes. Tell
the grocer he can sell for cash and say
good-by to bad debts when the dimes
no longer go into the saloon till. Tell
the farmers there is going to be an
unheard of demand for -four and meal,
butter, cheese and eggs as soon as
beer drinkers cease fostering that in
dustry and begin filling out the hoi-
low cheeks of wives and children.
