DOLLY’S EXCUSE.
Five*year-nld Dorothy goes to Sunday
He Is More Harmful Than The Habit
ual Drunkard.
“Oh, I only take a glass now and
then with a frietad, or when I don’t,
feel quite well I defy any man to say
lie ever saw meslrunk.”
And so we say to you, mieguidedjn&n,
tb&t for this very reason, because you
drink but are never drunk, that yon are
the bane of society. Yon, and not tbe
drunkard.
There is no greater snare to tbe young
man just beginning life tban the com
panionship of tbe moderate drinker.
He had better a thousand times have
for bis friend tbe man who lies half the
time dead drunk in tbe gutter.
For your moderate drinker is very
often a mad of good morals, as the
world goes, and he talks loftily of
schemes for raising mankind and puri
fying society. He always puts some
thing in the missisnary-boz, and he
goes to church, and helps to pay the
minister, and he makes speeches at
Fourth of July celebrations and Sab-
bth-fchool pionic, and altogether is
considered a very good citizen, while
his neighbor, who began with “just one
glass,” but had not the will-power to
stop there, and went to the depths of
drunkenness and despair, is despised by
all, and hooted and scoffed at as he
staggers along tbe streets.
But Ur. Smith, the moderate drink
er, knows where to stop, and so retains
tbe lespect of his acquaintances. And
when the young man at the beginning
of hie career of ruin is remonstratec
with by his friends he looks surprised,
and refers to Mr. Smith.
’ “Why, lcok.at Mr. Smith. He lias
always taken a glass when he felt like
it, and I am sure there is no man stands
any higher than Mr. Smith.”
Young friends, such of you as are
taking a pattern by Mr. Smith, pause a
moment and consider. How do you
know that, like him, you ean stop be
fore you leave the group* of safety?
How do you know that your will

HEARING EARS.
Some old suthr has said in substance:
Tbe Lord commanded his disciples to
pluck out an offending eye and to cut off
an offending hand, but he said nothing
about an oilending ear; it is possible for
one to enter heaven without an eye or
without a hand, but be cannot learn tbe
way of salvation without an ear. There
is a measure of troth in all this, for “faith
cometh by beating, and bearing by the
word of God.”
God is continually speaking to the chil
dren of men. The most common icsiru
ment he employs for h.s service is bis
word, which is adapted to all men and to
all tbe circumstances in which any mat)
can be placed. Its promises and threaten-

uses it to call men from sin to righteous
ness, would be to deny some of tbe plain
est lessons of history and cx[erience.

who begin by taking “just one glass”
end by becoming drunkards. How do

Again, we repeat, moderate drinken
are the banfc of society, because theii
example is one full of insidious fasci

realized until it is too late. No man
was ever influenced to drink by the
sight of one of bis fellows lying beastly
drunk by Che roadside.
Think you that any young mao who

to go and do likewise ? Does the sight
make him anxious to become a drunk
ard? Never!
He shudders with disgust, and hur

No, the drunkard never tempts any

i BARROOM FASCINATION.
Men Who Would Rather Drink in a

*' v board.
f Man’s.development gees on and takes
many peculiar forms. A doctor was
tiaying the other day that bars have
peculla fascination for men who are
not by nature born to inebriety that is
most deplorable. One case was cited oi
a man who was free to drink as he
choose, who bad no family, and who
lived alone in handsome apartments.
In bis own room he bad every kind of
choice Uquor. Yet, ext* pt when the
friends oame. to see him, he novel
brought out his liquor, but bought al

is g distinct development of a certain
meral character that is not* uninterest
ing. Questioning a man possessed of
the babi*, I received an explanation that
is suggestive, if not satisfactory.
“I have met many hard drinkers,”
paid he, “who pnf-r_U> shut themselves

The Holy Spirit nses all these instru

make men wise unto salvation. He alto at

sages of Scripture are suggested without
any apparent cause ; great longings after
higher attainments take possession of the
heart; resolutions to enter upon new and
difficult lines of duty are formed ; great
love for tbe Saviour and his Church fills
the soul till it sings for Joy. There are ex

THE LAST MATCH.
I icmember (and I donut know" v 11 >1
it was a legened or not) that a m issioi si
party were passing over the prairi e, wli
one of them exclaimed:
"See, see that red glare; what is it?”
They looked and watched, and one old
trapper, shading his «)e8with bis right
hand, cried out.
"The prairie is on fire, and it is spreading
at tbe rate of twenty miles an hour. It
will destroy us, and nothing will be left
a few charted bones to te!! of the party
passing over tbe prairie.”
“What shall be done?”
Tbe trapper cried:
“We must fight fire with fire. Work!
work! Pull up the grass; make the circlt
larger, Quick, qnickl I feel the heat upon
my brow 1 Quick, for your lives! pull up
tbe grass! puli up the grass! Now for tbe
matches!”
They searched and found two. Hastily
laden flat oi barge was lashed upon each
side of tbes'eamer.and tbe steins of these
vessels projected beyond the deck of the
steamer tight and left.
The decks of the barges were only three
feet above tbe water, and the tiger, alarmed
by a shout from tbe helmsman, made a
leap from the rudder to tbe nearest vessel:
In an instant all was confusion. The
terrified natives fled in all din ctions before
the tiger, which having knocked over two
men during its panic-stricken onset, bou-
ded off the flat and sought security upon
the deck of the steamer alongside.
Scared by its nt w position and by the
shouts of the peopie, it darted into the
first bole it could discover. This was the
open door of tbe immense paddle-box.
Tbe captain lushed to the spot aud closed
the entrance, thereby boxing the tiger
completely.
The door being well secured, there was
no danger, and an ornamental air-hole in
the paddle-box enabled the captain to ob
tain a good view of the tiger sitting upon
one of the floats. A shot through the head
put an end to bis career, and as the men
who had been knocked over were more
frightened than hurt, the affair was con-
'cluded in a way to satisfy ail parties—ex
cept the tiger.
PIGEONS OF WAR.
To one not previously acquainted with
the facts the amount of scientific study
that has been devoted to the birds known
as homing pigeons must appear surprising.
Tbe tiue homing pigeons are not identical
with tbe ordinary carrier pigeons, but are
almost all descendants of a specially
trained and developed race of birds in
Belgium, where they are called passenger
pigeons, or traveller pigeons—les pigeons
voyageus. These pigeons have been en
rolled, so to speak, in the armies of Europe
of which they form really important mem
hers. A map recently published in La
Nature shows the many lines of pigeon
communication running from tbe frontier
fortresses of France, Germany, Italy,
Spain and Portugal to the capitals of
those countries.
Pigeons are kept trained to fly along
these routes, and they could carry tbe news
of an invasion wnen all the telegraph lines
The ability of a pigeon to find its way
back home across many hundred mites of
country is frequently ascrib d to instincet
But Mr- W. B. Tegctmeyer, writing on this
Shbjict in Nature points out tbat this the
ory has been entiieiy disproved by the
pigeon races tbat have taken place between
Rome and Belgium, The distance is eight
hundred or nine hundred miles. The
pigeons used had been trained to fly from
the South of France to Belgium, but about
half oftbe country lying between Rome
and Belgium was unfamiliar to them,
Hundreds were started from Rome bat
taace; leaping with its forked tongues
through tbe dry grass at twenty miles an
hour! Only one match!
Tbe missionary baring his bow, said:
“God, help uf; for thy great name’s sake,
help us in our extremity.”
Every heart prompted the words, and
the lips uttered “Amen.”
They struck the maten; it caught fire, and
tbe grass was ignited; and as tbe fire
framed them in a circle, they marched on
t< inmphnnt, exultant, victorious.
Oar instrumentalities, whatever they
may be, ate as feeble as that one match,

If the trip is made to Denver, many
points will be visited which are of in
comparable interests to all American
travelers: while the trip to Sa l Dit gr
will be one of rare enjoyment
In either case the trip will be an in
structive, pleasant and enjoyable one.11
Arrangements now m process of per
fection for this excursion, will b8 com
pleted in a short time, when it will be
definitely announced how long it will
require to make the trip, and the ap
proximate cost of the same for each
person.
The ladies are expected to acco npany
the editors on this trip.
No person can go as the representa
tive of a paper except he is th i propr -
etor or editor of the paper he re
sents, and is actively engaged upon tbe
same.
All papers represented mus) be tmm
hers of the Association in go >d stand

There is no salvauon, according to the
scriptures, but through him who by the
shedding of his blood “entered once into
holy place, having obtained eternal re
demption for us.” The central ordinance
of tbe Lord’s Supper Is unmeaning with
we “have no life abiding in us.” Men may I va - 1<i3 from twenty-seven to fm ty-seven
say tbe doctrine is mysterious; so be it, for
“gie&l ii the mystery of goal ness," but
the fact is there at1withstanding, and
dear as Uu* Lord’s Ressnrrt ction. The

Savannah the Second Cotton Port arid
• First Naval Stores Depot In The

I propose to discuss tbe advantages of
each Eontbern Atlantic port to be the
j mint of entry for direct trade fr m
foreign countries, and will begin with
Savannah.
Savannah is the only fresh water port
south of Philadelphia on the Atlantis
as vessels in navigating salt water get
barnacles and sea weed on their bot
toms, and fresh water destroys th^ra,
the saving of expense and time in dock-
ag: is an advantage.
Savannah is the leading coast terminal
of the railway systems of the south.
The Central rail way & 3,oC0 miles of
tract reach into Georgia, South Caro
lina, Alabama atd Tennessee, connect
through with great western syt terns,and
open up to Savannah the vast produc
ing centers beyond the Mississippi, de
veloping coal, iron and marble of Geor
gia, Tennessee and Alabama and cover
ing of the sniitheru states with a net
work of railways.
The Plant system, with 2,0C0 miles,
pierce Georgia, Florida a d Carolina
and Alabama, and, connecting with
Mississippi and Louisam-, bring thous
ands of bales of cotton, naval stores,
phosphates and fruits and ▼rg-uables
to Stvacnah for shipment. Tbe Piant
•system connects by tteamship with the
West Irdies.

open new fields to the F« rest City.
The suburban and street railways of
Savannah have seventy miles of feeding
' nts.
Savannah is near to Memphis 672
miles; Few York, 1,159; Savannah is
807 miles from Lilt e Rook, and New

Savannah is 889 mile* from St. L-mis
nd New York is 1,048; Savannah is
,303 miles from Omaha, and New Yo k

tnhate enough to secure the passage of
bill directing the superintendent of
the census to secure from unincorpor
ated companies similar information to
that which is required from incorpor
ated companies.
The house then went into committee
of the whole—Buchanan of Virginia, in
the chair—on the postoffice appropria

A feature of the bill making appropri
ations for the sdpport of the agricultur
al department for the fiscal year 1893,

strictly to a statement of the percent
age totals by states and foil total,
without comment or argument; that it
shall be submitted to the secretary of

FOR WHAT IT IS WORTH.
The Story a Negro Man Told Yester
day.
The Ba nnkr reporter ran across some
thing of a curiosity yesterday morning
while making his rounds.
Two negroes were standing in front
of the council chamber engaged in
v< ry animated conversation. It was
religious discussion and free grace an
predestination mixed in considerably.
After it was over one
the darkies, . named
Jack Muckle, told a story that i> given
below for what it is worth.
He8aid tbat he was a son of Nathan
Muckle, who died at the age of seventy
odd years down in the lower end <
Clarke ooubty several years sine
Jack said tbat be had fifty brothers and
twenty-five sisters, and ,was bimsel
the father of fourteen children. H
offered, to bring proof to the establish
ment of this statement.
Now let suite newspaper r»p r'er
beat that story if he can.

You would not suspect it
from the taste; there is cod-
liver oil in Scott’s Emulsion.
It looks like cream; it is
like cream. Cream is bits of
butter covered with some
thing else—you do not taste
the butter. Scott’s Emulsion
is drops of cod-liver oil cov
ered with glycerine.
Cream is an easier food
than butter, because it is in
bits. 'Scott’s Emulsion is cod-
liver oil made easy; the
drops are invisibly fine; they
do not resist digestion.
Will you read a book on
it ? Free.
