never before has there been a time
when both men and women stood so
firm against the one great curse in
Georgia. The good women were pow
erless to do much within themselves,
but being daily in touch with the great
power house they lined themselves up
with the godly men, and we are re
joiced to say from the bottom of our
hearts that every time the sword of
a godly woman was raised it brought
forth blood from the side of the liquor
traffic. Prayers have gone up from
hearts that desire life instead of death,
and the sledge hammer has been used.
And now the bung has been knocked
out of the barrels of the deadly poi
son and as soon as the sun comes out
with its heat from behind the clouds
and drives away the scent we will, in
deed, rejoice to live in a free and
happy state, even for the short time
spared us here on earth.
And now, Christian workers, let’s
not stop; but realizing that God is on
our side to strengthen us, let’s drive
some of the other evils from our
state —for there are many others yet,
and it rests upon our shoulders and
ours alone to fight them in the service
for the Master. To do this we must
have courage, and if we will consult
First Corintians 15:58 we will get
just the encouragement needed:
“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be
ye steadfast and immovable, always
abounding in the work of the Lord,
for as much as we know that your
labor is not in vain in the Lord.”

FOUR YEARS OLD.
This is my birthday—l’m four years
old;
Papa says I’m worth my weight in
gold,
And I fancy it must be because I am
four;
But mamma says I’m worth a great
deal more;
She gave me a ring that she used to
wear
When she was little with curly hair,
And with that and a ride and a party,
too,
I’m so happy I don’t know what to do!
And the morning is only just begun —
Oh, having a birthday is lots of fun!
Were you ever four years old, like me,
With a ring and a ride and a birthday
tea? —Olive Leaf.

A PLACE FOR HIM.
“Oh, say, Mr. Bradford; are you in
a hurry?” panted bright, rosy-cheeked
George Ellis, running up to the sleigh
from which that gentleman was alight
ing.
“In too much of a hurry to stand
long in this snowy air. Come into th e
store if you wish to speak to me.”
“Thank you, sir,” and picking up a,
basket the driver had set upon the
curb, he opened the door of the large
general store and held it for the pro
prietor to pass through.
“Thank you,” said the gentleman.
“Now, what is it?”
“My mother slipped and broke her
ankle—”
"Yes, yes; I heard of it. Very sorry!
Hope she is doing well.”
“It takes time, of course, sir, and
it is so hard for her to lie on the sofa
all day, I came to ask if you would
allow her to use that wheel chair in
the back store for a few weeks, and
let me work for you to pay for it.”
“Did she send you to ask this?”
“Oh, no, sir; I thought of it myself!”
“What could you do? I never have
had a boy about the place.”
“I know it, sir, but I can see things
that might be done. The plants here
in the front window will lose their
leaves if they are not watered pretty
soon.”
The gentleman stepped to the win
dow and glanced at the plants before
he replied: “How did you happen to
notice them?”
“Mother has taught me to care for
hers. These are fine ones. Every
time I pass the window I wish I could
arrange them so that they would show
better.”
“I dare say they have been neglect
ed. I bought them to make up an as
sortment. Fix up the window to suit
yourself. I will send up the chair the
first time the delivery wagon goes that
way.” .
“Oh, thank you, sir!” and the lad’s
mittens and coat were off and he was
at the other side of the store after
water before Mr. Bradford had even
turned toward his desk.
George found real delight, as a
genuine plant-lover, in seeing the
thirsty green things drink up the need
ed refreshment, and noting how quick
ly they responded by an added ap
pearance of freshness and luxuriance.
He then polished the plate glass
window, spread down green straw car
riage mats to resemble grass, grouped
the plants tastefully upon them, and
then pushed a green-covered lounge
around so that it had the effect of a
mound of moss, and disposed a large
landscape upon an easel as a back
ground.
Being near the entrance, he politely
opened the door for every lady who
came up the steps, and when Mrs.
Nevens drove up with a portfolio of
pictures to be framed, stepped out and
brought them in for her.
Mr. Bradford, from his desk, could
not help noticing this spontaneous an
ticipatory service, and was interested
when the lady said: “I am so glad
that you have George Ellis here. I
am afraid he and his mother are hav
ing a hard time to get along. He is
in my Sunday school class, and the
brightest, most obliging lad I know.
Did he arrange that window? I might
have known it. It is a perfect picture,
or what is better, a bit of summer.
No wonder that every passer-by stops
to look at such a delightful contrast to
the world outside.”
Mr. Bradford, whose store was
known as the “Old Curiosity Shop,” or
“The Museum,” had never felt so com
placent over his surroundings in his
life, and was now most pleasantly sur-
soon.”

prised by an acquaintance coming in
to ask the price of the land
scape in the window and by his
purchasing it at once, saying, “My
shut-in sister has been asking for a
picture of green fields, but I didn’t
suppose I could find one in town.”
“That picture has stood near that
window all winter.”
“Well, 1 never looked in your win
dow, and if I had I could have seen
nothing for the dust, but your show
this cold morning would attract any
one. What’s up?” and the man went
off laughing.
“Where is George? He must find
another picture to replace that one,”
said Mr. Bradford.
“And what then, sir?” asked the boy
respectfully.
“Anything that suggests itself to
you.”
“Oh, thank you, sir! There are so
many nice things here, your store
should be the prettiest in the vil
lage.”
“And it’s only a lumber room; but
I give you liberty to make whatever
you can out of it.”
At the end of a week the front of
the store was so pleasantly and artis
tically arranged that every customer
had some complimentary remark to
make, and two drummers running in,
one exclaimed, “I thought I was in
the wrong store. I have been describ
ing your ‘Old Curiosity Shop’ to my
friend here, and telling him he could
buy anything from a humming bird’s
nest to a second-hand pulpit, but —”
“But, although order is being
brought out of chaos, I have the same
variety,” and he told the story of how
it all happened, adding: “I have not
the least particle of order about me,
and I never yet employed a clerk who
had interest enough in the business to
do anything except what he was told,
until this lad came in.”
“That is just the kind of a boy we
are looking for. There is always a
place for that kind of a boy. You’ll
have to pay him well or you won’t
keep him long. There’s our train. I’ll
run in on my way back and have a
talk with the fine little fellow.”
“Fine little fellow, indeed!” said Mr.
Bradford to himself. “Think they can
get him away from me, do they? 1
guess not!” and, calling to George, he
said: “Here is the balance of what you
have earned over and above paying
for the rent of the chair; and tell your
mother I am coming in this evening
to see about your staying on with me
for a year out of school hours. A lad
with your head for business mustn’t
neglect school.”
“My head for business is following
mother’s way—doing whatever is to be
done, and doing it well. You are very
kind, Mr. Bradford,” and the boy’s feet
kept pace with the' wind as he flew
up the -street to tell his mother the
good news—that he was sure now of
steady work, and she needn’t worry
any more, for he could take care of
them both.
It is Bradford & Ellis now, and you
wouldn’t know the place; but there
are always picturesque effects in the
windows and Mr. Bradford is never
weary of telling how his young part
ner made himself a necessity in the
business.
