Well call the attention, of..tho mothers and sisters to the foes, that the Woman's Christian Temper. eance Union meets every Monday tit three o'clock ,sharp, for ono hour, at Alrs.

Kentucky and Texas have at length passed laws requiring scientific temper- ance instruction in their schools. Only Ave States—Indiana. New Jersey, 'Teneessee, Georgia •aiad touthCarolina ,are'without similar laws. The Chicago Leger says: -="Brewer's statistics rove that Amore liquor is sold in Chicago in ona week than dur- ing the whole year in 'Caused, and the consuruptian of liquor in ,one .month in that nity is greater theta the,a;;greeate sales ;for one year in the .ae>7on pro, hition •elates." .e. One .of the most gratifying things we haae seen, as touching the World's Fair, is the complaint of .the ,saloon- keepers in that neighborhood that visitors give them very little custom; One inference naturally is that the great body of such visitors are not of the tort .from which saloons .draw their patronage. * Iowa, in the United Stutes, has had a prohibitory law for about ten years, This law is observed outwardly, at least, in Dos Moines, the capital. The • Inland Christian Advocate refer to it as "the largest city in the world with- out an open saloon." The popch tion is now 75,84(e—a gain in the p sent year of 7,373. The Advocate says with great force :—"The ePrelribitory law is the best enforced in our oity of any place ht the State, and at the same time we are outstripping thein all in growth, and yet our enemies would melte the world believe that prohibition would kill any city." Scene in a Bar Room. A young gran entered a bar -room of s yillage tavern and asked for a drink. No, said the landlord, you have had the delirium tremens once, and I cannot sell you any mere. ' He stepped aside to snake room for. a couple; of young men who had just entered and the landlord waited upon thein every politely.

A great many women take such things, said Mrs. Martin. Yes, and a great many perish by it body and soul. i have a areae who is one of the matrons in a womatt's prison.

Said Canon Wilberforce in his off -band table talk: "Wo always do as we like, we always seek the line of least resistance. For instance, to a good man the line of least resistance is rot+o swear,for the bad man it is to swear. They both do what they like. The Lord bishop of Manchester was fond of fox-hunting; he once went into a hlacksnlith"rl shop to.have his lierse's shoe fastened and mentioned that he was going hunting. Then I cannot go to hear you preach., for I do not think it is right for you to be a fox hunting cleraynaan. Very well, then, I will never follow the hounds again, said the bishop—and he never dad. But I maintain that he did as he liked. A Trifle too Leisurely. She wasn't blessed,with much beauty but she was dressed and had the ap- pearance of being exact. She came into the Union depot and tripped to the ticket office. The big clock on the will said it was exaetly—P. M. What time does the next train leave for Chicago'? she asked. • It will start in five minutes. How much is the fare? Twelve dollars. 1 thought it was only ton. Twelve dollars is the usual fare. Will it be any cheaper .Nota cent. Well, I'll take a ticket ! Here you are. Can you change a five dollar bill? Yes, change a five hundred dollar bill It took here some time to gather up her change and stow it away. Whon she had performed the operation, she smiled and asked : What time did .you say the train went 7 The train is hone. There will be another one to Chicago to -morrow morning. It was then that the woman vented her wrath upon the . ticket seller, but three other people who had been wait- ing in line behind her, and who had also. missed the train, smiled grimly. —Pittsburg Dispatch. to• -morrow 7 The Highest Priced Horse.

Gems of Thought. To think well is the way to act rightly. To delay to du right is to decide to do wrong. In prayer it is better to have a heart without words, than words without a heart. The greatest grace a gift perhaps, is that it anticipates and admits of no return. Envy not the appearance of happi- ness in any man, for thou kuowest not his secret griefs. VVe should not shorten thee present life, which is very short, not negleot the future, which has no limit. Advice, like snow, the softer it falls, the longer it dwells upon, and the deeper it sinks into the mind. The true wealth of a man is the number of things he loves and blesses, and that he is loved and blessed by.
