The Fashionable Wine Glass;
Some years ago the editor of the Advo-
cate while pessing through one of the worst
districts of New York saw &woman emerge
from a dark narrow alley. It was early in
the morning. She looked haggard, pale and
filthy; was bare -headed and almost bare-
footed. She was a pitiable object. That
night she had spent on hard stonee. She
passed ou and entered a low grog shop.
Placing some pennies on the counter she took
in her trembling hand the glees and drank,
then passed out and with uneven steps went
down the street. A policeman on being
spoken to said she was a common drunkard,
that like as not she wotild be in the station
`house ere night, and that night she slept
there.

Proved her ruin. She sipped,ehe drank, yet

She left the place, mute to New York,

door and open it to see the bright, eager
face of a ten year old boy. He wants our
boy and in the freedom of a conference on
the porch he tells one of the girls that he
is in search of help to drown out a wood-
chuck. In return she tells him that our
boy has been keeping two bumble -bee's
nests until such a time as they could join
skill and hats in the struggle and share the
risk, fun and honey secured.

Christian Endeavor Budget.
A FAMILIAR LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
OE HURON COUNTY C. E. UNION.
HENSALL, November 306, 1897.
Dear Fellow Endeavorers,-The year that
closed with the convention held in Clinton
in August last was the most successful in
the history of our Union. The excellent
report of our indefatigable secretary told
of large accessions to our ranks, increased
liberality to missionare and benevolent ob-
jects, and what was better than all, deepen-
ed spiritual life in our members. Like Paul,
when he met the brethren at Appii forum,
we were filled with gratitude and courage.
What will be the record of this year?
What will the report for this year show?
Our Union holds an honorable position in
the province. Shall we maintain that hon-
orable position? The answer lies with the
Societies of the Union. Knowing something
of their spirit I fancy I have their prompt,
united and enthusiastic reply. "Let FOR-
WARD be the watchword."
•CURIED IN
37° 5 NIGHTS
If progress is to be made,each Society and
every member of each Society will have to
begin earnest, systematic, praetical work
and begin at once. Every Endeavor So-
ciety should have a revival this winter in
the congregation to whish it belongs. Let
the congregation feel in the most practical
way that we are going to do just What
Christ would have us do." Then let us do
it, not dream about it, not speculate' or
theorize about it. Paul said This one
thing I Do." Try that. He started some
historical revivals right along that line. We
may do the same.
Let us live near to Christ that we may
get Paul's passion on souls. Let us
study our Bibles diligently that we
may be wisely guided in winning them. Let
us be much in prayer that we may lose our
pride and selfishnese and narrowness, and
bi filled with the Spirit. Then shall our
light spring forth and our work will tell for
Christ and the Church.
Etrery Endeavorer should remember that
loyalty to our own Church is one of the car-
dinal principles of Clhristian Endeavor. Be
true to the cangregation to which you be-
long. That, for the time being, is where
your work lies. Do not be a grumbler or
faultfinder, but a worker. If things are not
what they ought to be, lend a hand to put
them right in the Spirit of Christ. Let
your pastor feel you are with him in his
work, talk him up, not down, pray for him,
Paul said "brethren pray for me." Yoar
pastor may not be a Paul. All tire ' more
does he need your prayers, fill up the seats
at the prayer -meeting and Sabbath sers
vices. There is no inspiration in a lumber
pile. Give your name to the office -bearers
as one willing to enter any door of oppor-
tunity God may open for you. Be true to
the best your church stands for. This
will not make you a narrow -minded -sec-
tarian, but a broad and Liberal minded
Christian. True inter•denominational fel-
lowship presupposes denominational loy-
al tar.
Infidelity is striking a fierce blow at our
Christian Sabbath. We are not prepared
for a continental Sabbath with all the evils
attending it. Every Endeavorer should stand
strong and firm against all encroachments on
the sacred day of rest. We can give
valuable help to the Lord's Dey Alliance in
their noble efforts to secure the better
observance of the Sabbath. We can be con-
scientious in our observance of the day.
Example tells. The standard is not the
. i
sentment prevailing in your community.
The law of God is our rule. "Remember
the Sabbath day to keep it holy."
The liquor traffic is still strongly en-
trenched behind unrighteous laws. a sickly
temperance septiment and a Christianity that
has not yet learned the sacred obligation of
the ballot. Every effort to destroy only re-
veals how firmly the evil is rooted in our
land. How many more millions will it
waste ? How many more homes will it
wreck? How many more lives will it ruin
before it is destroyed ? The literature sent
you weekly can be used very effectively in
creating a healthy public sentiment in favor
of temperance reform, especially if it is
backed up by earnest personal work. Or-
ganization for the coming plebiscite Should
begin at once. Enthusiasm counts. Six
thousand young hearts aflame with the love
of Christ in this county should mean some-
thing both for church and state.
• Yours in the work,
J. S. HENDERSON.

terearging of taking on board their car-
goes. The ship nearest us, about two
cable lengths away, Was the British
ship Mahratta, which had come from
Singapore in ballast with a crew of
Malay lascars. It was one day at noon
that, as our ere* lay round under the
awning in.theforecastle waiting for the
order to turn to, one of the sailors sit- •
ting on the capstan sung out:
" mates, just look over to the
-lithe juicer ! They're having some kind
oi a rumpus there. See 'era going. I be-
lieve it's one of .those Malays running
amnck.'
We all jumped to our feet and looked
at the Mahratta, and some of us ran up
_into the rigging to get a better .view.
From the topsail yard I could see Jail
that was going on pn the deck of the
British ship. Amidships -a lascar, naked
to the waist, was slashing and stabbing
at a European officer who had tried to
grapple with him; while everybody else
in sight on the ship was running fore or
aft or taking to the rigging. On the
quarter deck the captain was hurrying
two ladies down the companionway into,
the cabin, supporting in his arms one
of *ern who had fainted.' As the officer
fell lifeless to the deck the Malay
bounded past him, following three sail-
ors who. had run aft, along the port
gangway, upon the poop. . As he ran he
swung before him a long, slender knife,
its crooked blade curving in and. out
like the writhings of a snake. He over-
took the reaemost man on the poop and
scut and • stabbed him, as he had done
with the officer, until the man fell.
.Meantime the'second man leaped over-
board, preferring to take his chances
with the sharks and water serpents to
remaining on board, and the third man
ran across the qtiarter deck and up into
the mizzen rigging like a cat. The man
in the water swain for our ship, and
some natives in a lighter picked him -
up ahead of the sharks.
"The Malay left the man he had killed
and looked around as if for fresh vic-
tims, but he himself waa the only liv-
ing person in view �n the decks. He ran
fore and aft, searching, but /found no
one, and he tried the cabin Oor, but it
was closed fast. Then he vOnt to the
mizzen rigging and started up the rat-
lines after the man who had taken
refuge there. When the Malay had got
as far as the mizzen top, the man he
was after took to the topgallant fore and
aft stay and began to go down it hand
over hand toward the mainmast. The
Malay kept on up to the topgallant
crosstrees and began to follow the man
down the stay.
"There was something frightful in
the relentlessness of his pursuit. He had
got about ten feet down the stay when
the captain appeared on the poop with
a revolver and began firing at him. One,
two, three shots he fired, and the Malay
kept on down the stay. He was two-,
thirds of the way to the foot when at
the fourth shot -the arm that held the.
creese fell helpless by his side, though
his hand still clutched the weapon. He
clung _to the stay by one hand and his
feet and kept on clown it almost as fast
as before. A ftfth and sixth shot, and at
the last the Malay stopped still, then
fell like a, lnenp of putty to the deck,
full 40 feet below. Whether he was
dead when he struck the deck I do not
know, but the mate, who must have
been watching from his room, ran out
from the cabin- to where the Malay was
with a handspike and made sure work
of the fellow before he could rise. Then
the lascars came runnieg from the fore-
castle and down the rigging, and. with
capstan bars, belaying pins and knives
struck and thrust at the dead Malay un-
til if he had hada dozen lives in him
they would have been hammered out of
' his body before the officers could. re-
strain -the excited sailors.
"Our captain got the full story of the
affair from the captain of the Mahratta
the next day. The Malay had been
brooding and sullen for days before,
thoug11 no one kneW what his grievance
was. On this day as the men were pip-
ed to dinner he had gone into the fore-
castle, got the creese from some place
where he had it concealed and had fu-
riously attacked his mates witheut a
word. They raised the cry 'Amuck,
amuck!' and scattered, but not. -until
three of them .had been killed or mor-
tally w_ounded and two more of them
seriously cut by he creese. Running
forward, he had e±icouutered the so.ond
mate, and the ret of the affair I saw.
Five- men dead and two badly hurt by
the Malay and himself killed at the
end was the record of ten minutes'
business in running amuck. Malays in
mine after this? No, thank you." -New

"In four voyages to the East Indies,

but one instance of that native perform-
ance called running amuck. Fortunate-
ly I saw it from a position of perfect
safety, but the sight was enough to
make D1S steer clear of all Malays after-
ward and any vessel that has them on
board," said Erdix Deering, ?who an
boy and man sailed many seas in deep
crater ships. "It was in 1865, when I
was a boy, on any first voyage, on the
ship Harry Warren, which sailed from
Boston to India with a cargo of ice.

Sane Advice to Young Artists.
"Don't give in" was about the gist
of what Sir Wyke Bayliss said to the
English art students in a lecture at the
South Kensington museum. He told
them what ought to be their watchword:
"Do not believe, he said, in the in-
sidious lie that the devil is always
whispering to the soul of the artist
that the golden age of art is past and
that what was done yesterday cannot be
done today, for art is in its decadence.
Such an assertion was the danger of the
time, and he would have theni track it
to its source and kill it there. It had
two forms -'-despondency and tempta-
tion --but he urged them not to be in-
fluenced by either. Let their study be
based upon knowledge, the knowledge
that had accumulated during the ages
and was formulated in what was blown
as academic training, and let their
knowledge in turn be based upon their
own study."
Certainly that is the best of advice,
for what has been done before can be
done again.
