Charged With Murder.
Prisoner at the bar.
"Have you anything to say why
sentence of death should not be passed
upon you?"
A solemn hush fell upon the crowd-
ed courtroom and every person waited
in almost breathless expectation for
the answer to the Judge's question;
The Judge waited in dignified silence,
Not a whisper was heard anywhere,
and the situation had become pain-
fully oppressive, when "the prisbner
was seen to move. His head raised,
hie hand clinched and the blood rush-
ed into his pale, careworn face. Sud-
denly he arose to his feet and in a
low, firm but distinct voice, said-
"I have, your Honor. You have
asked me a question, and now I ask
as the last favor on earth that you
will not interrupt my answer until I
am through, I stand before this bar
convicted of the wilful murder of my
wife. Truthful witnesses have testi-
fied to the fact that I was a loafer, a
drunkard and a wretch ; that I re-
turned froin one of my prolonged de-
bauches and fired the fatal shot that
killed the wife I had sworn to love,
cherish and protect. 'While I have no
rometnbrance of committing the fear-
ful decd, I have no right to complain
or to• condemn the verdict of the
twelve good men in this case for it is
in accordance with the evidance. But
may it please the court, I wish to
show that I am not alone responsible
for the murder of my Wife."
This startling annonncemInt creat-
ed a tremendous sensation. The
Judge leaned over his desk, the law-
yers wheeled around and faced the
prisoner, the jurors looked at each
otter in amazement, while the spec-
tatora could hardly suppress their
intense excitement. The prisoner
paused a few seconds, and then con-
tinued in the same firm voice :
"I repeat, your Honor, that I am
not the only one guilty of the
murder of my wife. The Judge on
this bench, the jury in the box, the
lawyers within this bar, and most
of the witnesses, including the pas-
tor of the old church, are also
guilty before Almighty God, and
will have to stand with me before
his judgment throne, where we
shall all be righteously judged. If
it had not been for the saloons of my
town 1 never would have become a
drunkard ; my wife would not have
been murdered ; I would not be here
now, ready to be hurled into, eternity.
Had it not been for these human traps
I would have been a sober man, an in-
dustrious workman, a tender father
and a loving husband, but to -day my
home is destroyed, my wife murdered,
my children -God bless and care for
them -cast on the mercy of the world,
while I am to be hanged by the strong
arm 62 the state. God knows I tried
to reform, but as long as the open sa-
loon was in my pathway my weak,
diseased will power was no match 'for
the fearful, consuming, agonizing ap-
petite for liquor. For one year our
town was without a saloon, for one
year I was a sober mail, for one year
my wife and children were happy and
our little home was a paradise. I was
one of those who signed•against re-
opening the saloons of our town.
One half of this jury, the prosecuting
attorney on this case, and the Judge
who sits on this bench all voted for
the saloons. By their votes and in-
fluences saloons were re -opened and
they made me what I am. I began
my downward career at a saloon bar
legalized and protected by the voters
of this town. After the saloons you
have allowed have made me a drunk-
ard and a murderer,I am taken before
another bar -the bar of justice --and
now the law power will conduct me to
the place of execution and hasten my
soul into eternity. You legalize the
saloons that make me a drunkard and
a murderer and you are guilty with
me before God and man for the mur-
der of my wife. Your Honor, I am
now ready to receive my sentence and
be led forth to the place of execution.
You will close by asking the Lord. to
have mercy on my soul. I will close
by solemnly asking God to open your
blind eyes to your own individual re-
sponsibilities so that you will cease to
give your support to the dreadful
traffic."
The Right Way.
In the Postmaster -General's report
Is suggested that the people writing
letters should sign their full names
and addresses to their letters, and
there would never be a letter but
what could be returned if it failed to
reach the person it was intended for.
The report suggests a better way than
that, too, but one which is a little
more expensive, That is to have a
small card printed on the envelope,
This will cost only a trifle, and if the
letter cannot be delivered to the ad-
dress, or the address should be wrong,
the letter would come back in the
course of five to seven days, instead of
going through the dead letter office.
Total assets of over thirty linitill.on
dollars are entrusted to the custody
of the Bank of Ilandlton.

Missionary Movement.
The Laymen's movement in connec-
tion with Toronto churches, decided to
try to raise this year $500,000; last
year the amount -reached from the
various denominations was as follows :
Presbyterians, $102,878 ; Methodists,
$101,874 ; Anglicans, $61,876.; Baptists,
$55,003; Congregationalists, $1,063 ;
Salvation Army and other societies,
$28,860. Next year the amount sug-
gested that each church should give 1s
-Presbyterian, $120,000 ; Methodist,
$120,000 ; Anglican, $82,000 ; Congre-
gational, $66,000; Baptist, $60,000 ;
Salvation Army and other societies,
$12,000, To show the great progress
made the receipts in 1007 were $175,-
000 and in 1008 $363,700, The objee-
tive half a million in Toronto has not
been attained, hitt all oyes are still fix-
ed on it.

How Zain Buk Brought Relief.
Mr. Julius Glacier. of Denbigh, Ont.,
says ;.-"I was so tortured by piles
that I could not get ease whether ly-
ing down, sitting, or standing. The
ailment robbed me of strength, of ap-
petite, and of all desire to live 1 I had
suffered so long and so acntely that I
came to think there was no ease for
me, but one day I found out that I
was wrong
"I was told that Zam-Buk cured
piles, and that this balm was alto-
gether different to ordinary oint-
ments, scores of which I' had, proved
useless for so bad a case as mine was.
I got a supply of Zana-Buk, and, be-
gan to use it regularly.
"Without going into unnecessary
detail in a few weeks I found myself
cured. I owe my cure to Zsp-Buk
entirely, and I trust 'ray experience
will be the means of leading other suf-
fevers to try this great herbal balm,"
Nothing need be added to this plain,
powerful testimony save ono question
-if you suffer like Mr. Glacier did,
why not get relief from the same
source as he did?
Zan1-Buk, as he truly says -is
"something different" to the ordinary
ointments and salves. It is a power-
ful combination of healing and sooth-
ing herbal essences. No mineral
astringents, or poisons ; no impure
animal fats.
It is a proved cure for inflamed
areas (as in piles) erysipelas, eczema,
ulcera, sores, abscesses, cold cracks,
chapped hands, burns, cuts, scalp sores
and all skin injuries and diseases. It
is the most suitable baler for children's
rashes. All druggists and stores at
50e a box or post free from Zam-Buk
Co., Toronto, for price.
