Well, really, now, I have not muU'b to say ? But if you'd called a year ago, and then again to -:clay, No need of words to tell you, marm ; for your own oyes could see - How much the Temperance Cause has done for my dear John and me. A year ago we hadn't flour to make a batch of bread, And many a night these little ones went supperless to bed; J Now look into the larder, marm—there's sugar, flour and tea ; And that is what the Temperance Cause has done for John and me. The pail that holds the butter, John used to fill with beer; But he hasn't spent a cent for drink for two months and a year ; He pays his debts, is strong and well as any Haan can bp; And that is what the Temperance Cause has done for John and me. He used to sneak along the streets, feeling so mean and low, And he didn't like to meet the folks he once was proud to know ; But now he looks them in the face, and steps off bold and free ; And that is what the Temperance Cause has done for John and me. A year ago these little boys went strolling through the street With scarcely olathing on their backs and nothing on their feet ; But they've shoes and stockings now and garments, as you see; And that is what the Temperance Cause has done for John and mc. The oilildren were afraid of him—his coming stopped their play; But now when supper time is o'er, and the table cleared away, The boys all frolic around his chair, the baby climbs his knee; IN And that is what the Temperance Cause has done for John and me. Ah, those sad days are o'er, of sorrow and of pain ; The children have their father back, and I my John again ! I pray excuse my weeping, marm—they're tears of joy to see How much the Temperance Cause has done . for my dear John and me. Each morning when he goes to work 1 up- ward look, and say, P "0 Heavenly Father, help dear•John to keep y `' his pledge to•day !" And every night before I sleep, thank God n on bended knee :For what the Temperance Cause has done for my dear Jahn and me.

A great big man stood listening to the little fellow's vaporings. He merely smiled, until the little fellow said, in a very loud tone: 'Show me an Irishmen and I'll show you a coward.' Then the big fellow slipped up and, touching the little fellow on the shoulder, said, in a heavy, bass voice: 'What's that you said?' '1 said, show me an Irishluan and I'll show you a coward,' said the little fellow, whose knees were shak- ing under him. 'Well, I'm an Irishman,' said the big fellow. y • 'You're an Irishman?

Warranteecl at Chishom'sdrug store. A Girl's View of the Cash System. Irl IDA LEIGELTON, AGED 14, OItANGE- VILLE. There is little doubt which is the better, cash or credit, and that it would be a grand thing if the cash system were the only one in practice. It would make less work and expense for the merchant, so that he would have more time to give to his busi- ness, while the customer would be happier for not being in debt. If the people would only think so, it would be --far better for themselves and everyone else. They would not be always getting into debt and having to mortgage their_ farms and property, and eventually lose them, as they are seized by a man' creditor to pay his debts. It seems less to pay a dollar now and then than to ay a large bill at the end 9f the ear. The wholesale merchants will of wait for the retail merchants. as the latter have to wait for their customers. How then can, the retail merchants be expected to pay for theitoods unless they have private means j eA•seevveryone cannot have that, I think it only fair to everyone concerned that the cash system be established and practised and the credit system be condemned. • Why Not You?

Even in Paris the agitation has spread, and is bearing fruit. Before the Ac tdemy of Medicine, Dr. Lancereanx summed up the results of the great growth in the consumption of alcohol as • follows "A mortality greater than that from the greatest epidemics, the ruin of labour, the steady diminution of • riches, and—what is already start- lingly evident in France — the- ditninution of the very population of • . the country by the extinction of the family."—From the Paris correspon- a ence in the New York Tribune, March 25th.

Here is a story of a schoolmaster who promised a crown to any boy who should propound a riddle that he could not answer. One and another tried, and at last a boy asked : "Why am I like the Prince of Wales ?" The plaster puzzled his wits in vain and finally was compelled to admit that lie did not know. "Why," said the boy, "it's be- cause I am waiting for the crown." Strawberry Layer Cake. Half pound of butter, five eggs, six ounces of flour, quarter teaspoon- ful mace, Half pound of sugar, two s ounces of corn starch, one teaspoonful o vanilla, two tablespoonfuls sherry, It one teaspoonful of baking powder. tl Beat the butter to a cream, adcl the m sugar gradually, beating all the a while ; then add the yolks of the eggs, then the well -beaten whites ; then the flour, corn starch, and bak- ing powder. Beat well, add the flavorings, mixing well, grease three deep jelly tins, pour'in the cake and bake in a moderately quick oven 'fifteen minutes. When clone, remove carefully from the pans and stand them on a towel for a few minutes to :cool. Strain the strawberries. Beat the whites of two eggs lightly, add; gradually, four tablespoonfuls of powdered sugar, and then beat vigorously until stiff enough to stand alone. Put a layer of this over the top of one cake, then a layer of. berries ; stand another cake on top of this. • Put the remainder of the white filling over the top of this cake, •then another layer of berries;. Now place the retraining cake on, top of this, press down lightly, dust .tete top over with powdered sugar, and it is ready for use. Advertising sake ruffling, Did you ever see a fellow lislii off' the end of some old coal wli• just where a sewer emptied? life has taken It day from. work catch some fish for a Gut. See him, he baits his hook, as we as he can for the rust on it,, with, soft and odorous clavi he found ou side a fish market. , Te throws over into the dock mud, Yanks up, Throws again, Throws to th right, to the left, forward and back balances and swings to partner, at least swings it around his head and lets it fly out as far as he can His bait is now water -soaked, if no all worn off the hook, but so long he can smell it, he keeps it going Finally he_pulls in his line, `winds u and goes off empty-handed, grumb ling that fish don't bite. Now go out to some little fishing village with a hard-headed, old salt water dog of a fisherman, lie take a dory and goes to the fishing grounds. He has a little box; there' a smack in it for a midday meal He has a big tub—there's bait in it He selects a good, strong line, with stout, clean sharp hook on it ; puts good, generous bait on, and jus drops his line down easy! In a iittl while he pulls it up. Bait is hal torn off. "Good!" he says. Off comes the bait. A new bait. a ittle larger, a little nicer bit perhaps, s put on carefully, Down goes the ine,, Ah! there he hauls, easily hand over hand, and into the boat he umbles—a bis honest, codfish!! The first fellow was fishing,—for fun, and didn't get any. The man hat was fishing—for fish, is making is living at it day after day. And so the man who does a little esultory advertising, as a rule, owes off empty handed, while the dvertiser who makes a business of dvertising ; whose strong line is his eputation ; whose stout hook is esirability of article; who uses fresh bait in every advertisement, ands his fish as a matter of business, ecause that is his business.— Printer;' Ink. Salt In Foods. Salt, as an aid in feeding animals, eems to be very advantageous, but my when employed in moderation. assists digestion by stimulating ie sluggish secretions of the mucous enrbranes of the mouth, stomach nd intestines. But if given in excess it will naturally produce thirst, or rather a greater consump- tion of water to slake it. Many 1 farmers in France believe that excess; of drihk produces, in the case of doiry cows, an increase in the yield of milk. This is an error; the extra water 'passes directly into the blood and is etlineinated by the kidneys as urine. Milk, is a secretion from special glan'd's;, , fed in their own physiological wAs , indirect from the system of circul'atipn. But here is a curious action of common salt. On the table lands among. -the Pyrenees mountains, - sheep herds'+'of. 3,000 to , 12,000 ase"'striven up ,from • the valleys to feed down the herbage during the suthiner. The soil is characterised by a total absence,of sodium and the salt breezes from the, Bay of Biscay do not reach such high latitudes—nearly two miles. :The sheep are invariably divided into two groups, the one for fattening, the other for breeding. Now both are feel on the sane land, yet one group is ever lean and has to be maintained so for reproductive ends, while the other group is invariably fat—the latter are supplied with salt, e other not and that makes the whole difference. ng mut a to 11 a t- it it e Or t. • P s s i a a t e f 1 1 t t h d c a a r d h b The ]'eminlne Imagination. The increase in bicycling travel is something like phenomenal on all hands, but the number of' women who are of late engaged in it, is th specially remarkable. Is this to go on until it becomes a generally recognized method of the fairer sex? There would be implied in this a remarkable change in the hands of society, yet it only requires a few mole women bicycle riders to set the fashion in order to make it nearly as common in the 'one sex as in the other.' We see no reason why, in the advance of what are known as woman's rights in various directions, her right to ride a bicycle should not be recognized not only as reasonable, which it is already, but as fully sanctioned in the customs of society. —Boston Herald, One of the saddest sights in this world is to see the crabbed man try to smilc when he meets the preacher, Applicant ; 1 ask for the hand of your daughter.

A certain schoolmaster occasion- ally compares the achievements of his pupils with the work of noted men in their boyhood days, much to the sebolars' disadvantage.
