WATOH TUUR WORDS.
Keep watch on your words, my children.
For words aro wonderful things;
lncy arc sweet, like tho bees' fresh honey
L'Vo bees, they have terrible stings;
They can blcsa llto tho worm glad sonshlno,
And brighten tho lonely lite;
They can cut In tho atrtto of nn jer
Like an opon two-edged knlto.
lt them pass through your Hps unchallenged,
It llielt errand bo truo and kind
If they come to support the wcai,
To comfort 4ud help the blind;
It a bitter, revengeful spirit
prompt tho words, let them bo unsaid;
They may flash through tho brain like lightning,
or fall on the heart like lead.
Keep them back It they're cold and cruel,
Under bar and lock, and seal;
Tho wounds they make, my children,
Are always slow to heat
May Christ guard your lips, andeTer,
Prom tho time ot your early youth,
May the words that you dally utter

Prohibition In Maine,
a iruviar.ii kinds from kxpeuiknce
THAT IT IlOKS NOT EXIST,
A ooiToapotuiont of tho Phllnilolpbia
J'ress tells hia experionco in Maino iu
tlio following letter :
It f.ceniH rather gtalo to talk nliout
prohibition in Maine. That Bubjeot
gets so thoroughly overhauled during
every political campaign and ia men
tioned bo often that at first thought it
would seem hard to add anything to
tho qucatiou. Yet, aa a matter of fact,
Maine's prohibition in its practical,
ovory-day aspects, is not known to tho
pubho to any extent. Ultra-temperance
writers produce figures to show that
there are few if any saloons in Maine,
and that it is so hard to got a drink
here that drunkenness is practically an
unknown offense On tho other hand,
tho anti-prohibitionists havo produced
figures showing how many saloonb
really are in oxistenco, showing the
enormous increase in prescriptions for
spiritus frumenti of lato years and tho
added number of criminals in tho jails
and penitentiary. Both sides orr, while
tho latter aro more nearly correct.
It is not necessary to go to drag
stores for a drink, becauso there aro
plenty of accessible bar rooms. It is
practically as easy to get a drink in
Portland as it is in Philadelphia.
There aro screens to tho saloons, but
not screens that deceive the observer.
Those who know tell mo what is trne
here is truo in all tho large towns
and in nine-tenths of the villages
throughout tho stato, and I don't doubt
i. There was a prominent Newarker
in company with me when wo arrived,
and he proposed, after supper, that wo
test for ourselves tho accuracy of the
reports we had so often heard. We
were at a leading hotel, where it is im
possible to evado the law openly, and
whore a spy could walk in andsee all
ho wanted for detectivo purposes in
two minutes. Yet no precautions were
taken. Wo were directed to the bar
room at once and others were bound
thither without any directing. They
had been there before. Tho Tar was
large and spacious, well lighted and
with an exit directly to tho leading
thoroughfare of the city. The bottles
wero displayed with all the brilliancy
of the average saloon. A lino of males
wero in front of the bar disposing of
various beverages., No questions were
asked and no suspicions were manifest
ed. You got what you asked for and
no bones wero made about it The
man in charge talked freely on the sub-'
lect, tie nam notntng could suit tbe
liquor men in Maine better than the
Prohibition law. Tboy sold as openly
and freely as ever and had no license
to pay. They got all tho benefit of
freedom, while, the state got none of
tbo revenue from tho restriction that
license always produces. Others said
thesame thing. You need not go a
block here in any direction before hnd
ing a saloon. Yet a Prohibitionist,
whom I ran across this morning, near
ly told me I lied when I said liquor
was plentiful. He said a man couldn't
buy ix drink hero without resorting to
tue rmeest suuteriugo.
I ran down to Old Orchard Beach
from hero. It is the Ocean Grove of
Maine. People in New Jersey, who
told mo so much before I left and
know so little, said no matter what
tricks might bo played in Portland and
the large cities, you couldn't get a
untile at uia urcnard. "well, as
newspaper man, about the first thing
1 investigated was mat statement.
Walking into the largest and most con
spicuous hotel an utter stranger,
asked one of the bell boys where the
uar-roora was. lie answered very
promptly: "Fourth door to your right,
sir, down that oorridor." I went down
tho corridor to the fourth door, opened
it and found mvself in a neat and
natty bar, with all the paraphernalia
ot the protessiou in lull bloom and the
regulation coterie of imbibers scat
tered around tbo room. That wasn't
all. In the few moments I was there,
drinks of the various sorts, lemonade
excepted, were put on trays and con
veyed publicly through the corridors
and up stairs to tbe rooms ot cucBts.
Old Orchard bad all the liquor it needed
and it was bought right and left
without any concealment or apparent
evasion, in tact, my preconceived no
tions about prohibition in Maine were
annihilated inside ot an hour. 1 never
havo believed that prohibition could
prohibit, but I really thought there
was somo pretense m that direction up
here, but tuore isn t.
It is a mighty good thing tho mana
gera ot tho 1'rohibition party nevor
bring any of their oonvcrta to Maine
and allow them to ask for tho nearest
saloon. If they did they would loeo
every mother's son of thera. It's all
very nice to sit on a cushioned seat aud
hoar a rose-colored picture about tho
way prohibition prohibits in Maine,
nud how all that is needed to banish
tho bottle and the bar is to mako tho
Maine law national, but you musn't
take too muoh for granted in this age,
It is apt to givo you a worse than eleo
trio shock when you happen to oomo
to Maine and tumble against a saloon
in full blast beforo you have learned
tho name of tho street you are on.
L S. M,
Olffarette Smoking.
One of tbe most abominable habits
which a person can acquire and es
pcoially a youth is that of cicaretto
smoking. Thoso who aro addictod to
it not only injure their health moro
than they realize, but they also render
themselycs unpleasant to almost overy
ono thy meet while practicing it, for
not ouo person in a hundred likes tho
.smell of a cigarette, and to tbo major
ity of the people it is simply intolcra
bio. Tho general impression is that
cigoretles nro tiarmlepe, wlioreas they
aro a n Hunt source of evil. Tboy aro
so dry, the nicotine ix thrown oil from
tho moment tho tobacco begins to burn,
aud tho smoke being inhaled and com
ing in contact with tho delicate lining
of the air passages, the poison is at
once absorbed, and produces an im
mediate effect, which can be felt even
to tho tips of tho fingers.
A Noblo Btanil.
Tho tcmpcranco cause in tho town of
M was in Us infancy. A very
fccblo infancy, too) for thoro was a
drinking saloon at almost ovorv .cor
ner, and tho reeling, intoxicated men
wore so common in tho streets that no
ono ever glanced at them. Tho liquor
sellers boasted that more money was
paid by them for licenses than in othor
towns three times tho the of M .
No drinking man sank in publio esti
mation unless he lost his credit, and
had no money to stand treats.
A terapcronco lecturer, n very ejo
quent man, found his way to M s
and tho people liatoned, langhed, ond
at tho oloso of his lecture, hooted him
oil tho stand. But a band of noblo
women, tho wivos and mothors of somo
of tho prominent citizens of M ,
took np tho work, and set forth on a
hopolcss crusado against tho demon of
intemperance, who had Bot his mark
on tho forehead of tlioir friends and
relatives. Thov wero too well known,
too high in position, for tho pooplo to
treat tbom as they had dono tho lcctur
on but they failed as signally in reform-
g their bearers.
Thorn was a larcro uartv given in
M , whoro all tho young pcoplo of
both sexes had assembled. Among tho
refreshments served were, aa usual, a
variety of wines. A sweet-faced mod
est girl, a great favorite with hor com
panions, lUKHlgll WIUU I.IOO, iuid liuiu

"Friends," sho said, in a firm, clear
vnlr.p. "wo havo all of us boon brought

hearers.
"AVell, then, I say wo have a com

and throwing its oontents out of an
ODen window. "This niglit I tako my

young people took the pledge.

what has become of the saloons and
tho topers. Thoso who wero too old
to reform are no longer found reeling
through the streets, a wholesome shame
keeping them within doors. Popular
opinion, led by the onthusiastio young
reformers, was too strong for them.
All this was tho work ot ono young
girl of eighteen, neither very handsome
nnr exceptionally intelligent, but filled
with a high purpose, and a fervent
faith, and tho magnetism of youth to
influence hor young companions. esei.
A Mew Use Tor a Dog.
rASSENQKB WHO WAS WIM-INO TO BE
TUT OFF THE TRAIN WHEN
HIS DOO WAS.
Tho other day a man got aboard of
a train on tho Detroit and Lansing
road, accompanied by a big dog, and
in duo courso of time tho baggago man

allowed to ride in passenger cars."
"Well, we'll wait and hear what tho
conductor says. Ho is a friend of mine,
and if be says tbe dog can t rido ncre
that will settle it.
It was half an hour later beforo the
conductor, accompanied by tho bag
gage man, got around to tbe man.
"That dog must como out o norei '
announced the conductor.
'For why! lie isn t hurting any
body."
"Because no dogs aro allowed in the

"And if I don't tako him to tho bag

Change in the Style of Watches-
There has been a great change in the
style of watches. Years ago big
watches, with all tbe nowering mat
could be got on tbo cases, were tho
stylo. Tbon camo tho opposite, and
plain watcbes wero tho demand, ihe
lady watch came, a neat, delicate little
thing, and then tho men thought the
little watcbes wero tbe- no plus ultra
And the jewelers began to bedeck the
oases with pearls and other stones, and
tho articles brought big pricos. After
a time the neat silver watch got its
hooks in, and it was all tho rage.
rncea for watches have fallen re
markably in the last ten years. I re
member when people paid 8250 and
$300 'for a hunting-case gold watch,
that you now oan get for S50 or SCO,
and sometimes for less. Tho change
in price is due to tho effect that the
makers, after a time, found tboy could
make oases much cheaper than thoy
had beon doing. Tho works were made
much cheaper by the use ot machinery,
and ot courso tbo price ion, being help
ed along by competition.
Remarkable Longevity.
A remarkable caso of family lon
gevity, and ono that is said to be sup
ported by indisputable records, is re
ported from New Holland, Ohio, a
milo and a half south of whloh place
lives Mrs. Margaret Arnold, who was
110 years old on the 4th of July. She
was born in Augusta county, Va., July
4, 1777. Her maiden namo was JJar
gartt Kiscr, aud 80 years ago bIio was
united in marriage to Henry Arnold,
who is as sprightly aa a man of fower
years. Whllo Mrs. Arnold ban the np
poaraoco of being remarkably old, yet
klio is well preserved for one of her
years. During the last month, how
over, sho has been failing, and gets her
ago and othor matters considerably
mixed up. Sho has two sisters living
in Iowa, ono of whom Is 110 years
old and tho other, 107. Tho combined
ago of the throe sisters, therefore, is
880 years, or an averago of 110 yoars
each,

A nractico of HOino Wcstorn farmors
Is to apply petroleum to thoir seod

Often tho sore shoulders of a horse
aro occasioned by lumps and ridges in
the collar, resulting from a laok of at
tention. Horse collars should be oc
casionally washed and pounded, to
keep them soft and clean.
Tho best manner of accumulating
phosphate of potash, an invaluablo

Experience teaches that the earlier

sorted to the better it is, both for its
vigorous health and rapid growth.
Thus will the best returns bo secured,
whether the animal bo intended Tor

Farmers would find it to their ad
vantage to corn mutton in a weak briuo

from sausago and spare-rib.
There is no economy in keeping a
cow that does not mako good butter
and plenty of it. It costs as muoh to
koop a cow that will make but six
pounds ot butter a week as it does ono
that will doable that amount. Any
suggestions as to whioh sort should bo
kept is unnecessary.
Horses put to hard work will almost
surely show puffy spots under the har

Scours can generally be cheoked by
shutting tho sow np and feoding-dry

and a teaspoontul given morning and

In gathering encumbers thoy should
novcr bo pulled, but out instead, as one
reason why so many vines die as soon
as they begin to boar is that tho vines
are injured in cultivation or in gather
ing tho fruit. Cut freely and often,
for as soon as tho seeds begin to in
crease in bizo, the flowers cease to set.
It is this early training in labor and
responsibilities that gives to those who
passed childhood and youth in farm
houses an advantago in tho raco of life,
it explains why so largo numbers of
thoso who win the highest positions
are thoso whoso early training taught
them that whatever is worthy ot ao
quisition demands effort, and is tho
prize ot earnest, persistent labor,
It may hurt tho cow somo to cut off
her horns, says the United States
Dairyman, but bo do her horns hurt
others when sho goes at thera full
drive. It is doubtful if the pain of de
horning is greater than the hurt of
having a pair of sharp horns run into
the side. In caso of dehorning there
is only ono hurt; but there is no end of
hurts from hooking when tbe horns
are left on.
A Minnesota farmer has been ex
perimenting on tbo cost of koeping
sheep, and concludes that they aro an
exceedingly profitable adjunct to his
farming operations. He says that it is
safe to say that the increase of his flock
will cover tbo cost of keeping it, leav
ing tho wool for dear profit: or tho
keeping may bo charged against the
wool, which will not exhaust it all,
leaving tho lambs clear profit.
Tho remedies for the protection of

A farmer was for a long time at a

When tbo hoofs of a horso aro hard
