Rattle of Alma.

Sixty years ago soldiers of Britain and France, fighting side by side, achieved one of the most brilliant vic tories in the annals of war. Never has the valiant fighting spirit of the British troops been better shown than when, on September 20, 1854, they waded through the River Alma, amidst a shower of bullets, fought their way up the precipitous banks on the other side of the river and, hay ing burst through the dense under growth of vineyards, drove back the Russians, who were led by Prince Menschikoff.
 The British troops were led by Lord Raglan and the French by Marshal St Arnaud. Three thousand three hundred of the allies were killed and wounded, a heavy loss when one con- siders that the British forces num- bered only about twenty-seven thou sand and the French thirty thousand.

POOR ADVERTISEMENT.

Our town offers especially strong inducements to men with growing fam. flies who want to raise their children in the atmosphere of the saloon; nc town offers better opportunities for ed. ucating the youth in the habit of drink, ing; we boast of ten saloons, one on almost every corner"
 No one ever saw an advertisement like that and never will" says the Kansas City Star. There is not a town in the world that bases it's prosperity on the number of it's rum shops. VII. lages. towns and cities advertise their good points, not their bad points. They have this and that opportunity for employment. The climate is more or less wonderful. The transportation facilities are told of Good neighbors are a valuable asset The town has sC many churches and so many schools If it is without saloons, that good point is made much of as an appeal to men and women with families to come there. But if it has saloons there is never a word about it. That is hidden covered up"

MUST BE TRANSFORMED.

Our trade cannot afford to longer oppose an aroused public sentiment" says Comforts Wine and Spirit Circu
 lar. Tt would be like Belgium stand ing alone against the German empire" :" And the editor says that in order to defend the trade successfully liquor leaders must make war on those things that breed pposition-must demand whatever changes are neces. sary to adapt our affairs to the de. mands of public sentiment" The w. C. T. U., through it's mouthpiece, the Union Signal, informs "the trade that it is @ change in nature, not in method, which public sentiment is de. handing, and reminds the liquor inter, ests of the declaration of MT Me. Donough, former president of the Ma, tional Liquor league. to wit: This talk of reforming the saloon sounds well in the form Of a resolution, but it is all rot" The change necessary to adapt the wine and spirits trade to the demands of public sentiment is nothing less than a transmutation.

Troubles of a Pronhet.

In a certain town the local fore caster of the weather was so often wrong that his predictions became a standing joke, to his no small annoy ance, for he was very sensitive. At length, in despair of living down his reputation, he asked headquarters to transfer him to another station.
 A brief correspondence ensued.
 Why" asked headquarters, "do you wish to be transferred"
 Because" the forecaster promptly replied, the climate doesn't agree with me. e.'-Pittsburgh Chronicle.
