In smiles of sweet content.
And shame should roll athwart your
soul
For all the growls you’ve spent.
Captain Jack is a thorough demo
crat, as witness hds verses “Satisfied.”
I care for neither rank nor creed,
Nor dignity nor pomp nor pride,
Nor race nor pedigree nor breed —
I with myself am satisfied.
Because the best of every class,
The best of every creed and race,
Are mirrored in my soul’s clear glass
When I am with them face to face.
And yet should I commit a crime
’Gainst God or man of nature’s laws,
In word or thought or deed or rhyme,
As thick as cloud or thin as gauze,
I on my mirror fix my eyes,
Witr contrite heart my soul I scan,
Then hold communion with the skies,
As heart to heart, ’tween God and
man.
And. brother mine, misunderstood
And persecuted day by day,
And branded bad because you’re good,
Go to your looking glass and pray;
“From jealousy and selfishness,
Intrigue, deception, keep me free,”
If wrong, be honest and confess —
Make peace between thy God and
thee.
So what care I for class or creed,
Or pedigree or pomp or pride,
Since God’s own Son by fiendish deed
Os kingly power was crucified?
Though cradled in a manger, He
MONEY OR YOUR LIFE!
Some folks seem to value money more
highly than their health from the way
they sacrifice the latter for the former. If
you ever experience the agony of Eczema,
Tetter or some other tortuous skin malady
you will appreciate what a little thing
money really is compared with health.
But remember, 50c worth of Tetterine wi4l
relieve the w’orst case of skin disease on
record, quhckly and permainently. 'Nd
use to spend more, 50c at drug stores or
by mail from Shuptrine Co., Savannah, Ga.

right of the whole people, majority
and minority, to put or to keep a
saloon anywhere.
We stand on the declaration of our
Supreme Court, “No legislature has
the right to barter away the public
health, the public peace or the public
morals, the people themselves cannot
do it, much less their servants.” On
this rock we will build our reform
into the national constitution and the
gates of hell shall not prevail against
it.
The conclusion is irresistable; the
one remedy for the criminal saloon is
to cast it out of the nation, with the
state as the local unit, to announce
that as our program and battle line,
take every concession offered by the
enemy in the meanwhile, fall into
line when there is a local fight on, but
keep our eye on Washington as Jesus
steadfastly set His face to go up to
Jerusalem. And Mark records, “that
as they were going, Jesus went be
fore them.” He took the lead, he
was in the advance, he went on ahead
and they were amazed and follow
ed after.” It is our business to go
on before; to take the lead with our
faces steadfastly set on the capitol at
Washington. Whatever is less desir
able than that; whatever is obtainable
in part prior to that, can be more
quickly obtained by our demanding the
whole. “Not a hoof,” said Moses.
“Go/ said Pharaoh, get you up and
begone; and bless me also.” Accord
ing to our faith it shall be done.
Men, brethren and fathers, harken;
let me deliver my soul in this onl last
word; I am with you heart and soul
for a Constitutional Amendment, but
be it known unto you, a Constitutional
Amendment is not the final step, for
nothing will be final that does not
bring the legislative and administrative
function of a government into har
mony of action toward the criminal
liquor traffic.
Only one thing can save us from a
fearful reaction; we must capture the
administration of the law, we must
possess the power of the government to
enforce the verdict recorded in the con
stitution; we must make our rulers, “a
terror to evil doers, who heareth not
the sword in vain, an avengge to exe
cute the wrath of God upon them that
do evil.
We must capture this givernment
from the hands of the rum power
wherever it is entrenched; we must
strike at the root, at the brewery and
distillery; entra-state and interstate
transportation and foreign importa
tion, and at the domestic manufacture
for exportation, as entrenched in our
great cities, where in the absence of
prohibition triumphant in national gov
ernment as well as at the sale. Let us

true with church societies and literary
clubs. But those of more social dis
position and frivolous nature prefer
something more for pastime than serv
ice, so dominoes forty two then cards
and other games, fill the time that
was once given unselfishly to the needs
of home entertainments many have
come to love better than regular every
day home life and are sweeter every
where than at home. This is one of
the evils of the society rush of the
present day.
Some of these parties have come to
be of very doubtful character. So of-
ten Christian women violate a tender
conscience to please Mrs. So and So
by attending one of her “charming
functions.”
Be that as it may, much time is
spent and money used that might help
in relieving the sick, administering to
the needy or sending the Gospel to
the heathen.
The ladies of our cities could easi
ly build institutions for far reaching
good with the money spent in the sel
fish and useless pleasures of society,
and get far more joy out of the work

NEW HEAD OF SOUTHERN
(Continued from Page 8)
Mobile and Ohio Railroad, and Vir
ginia and Southwestern Railway.
Resolutions deploring the death of
Mr. Finley and paying a high tribute
for his work for the railways he head
ed and the territory they served were
adopted by the board of directors of
the Southern Railway, the Mobile and
Ohio Railway, the Alabama Great
Southern Railroad and the Virginia
and Southwestern Railway. These
resolutions will be printed throughout
the South. Immediately following his
election, President Harrison gave out
the following statement:
“I am in entire accord and sympa
thy with the policies of my lamented
friend, Mr. Finley, under whom I
have worked for seventeen years. I
hope to continue to build the South
ern as he built it by promoting and
enhancing its usefulness to and its
cordial relations with the people of
the South. I count on the support of
the entire present working organiza
tion of the Southern, rank and file.
Having grown up in the service with
most of them, I know how to value
them and I am proud to believe that
they are my friends.”

cess. These machines have been ad
vertised now less than two months, and
yet there are a large number of sales
recorded, and a number of people have
written in testifying as to the splendid
quality of the machines.
It is not the intention of the mana
gers that these machines shall go into
any homes except where they are want
ed, and when they are wanted, it is not
the intention that anybody shall ever
send back a machine for lack of qual
ity. The market has been searched -
thoroughly so that it is known these
machines are of the best possible qual
ity, and anybody buying a sewing ma
chine will find it extremely advanta
geous to buy one of these.
The fact that the Club is willing one
should go into your home for a thirty
days trial shows what is thought of
them.
The terms on which these machines
can be bought are so simple and so
easy that any one who has not inves
tigated the subject ought to write at
once for a catalogue and the terms.
If the machines are what you want
they are certainly offered at very low
prices, and if they are not what you
want you must be hard to please, be
cause they are the very best of the
kind, and the higher price machine,
$27.80, is as good as any machine
made.
