MISCELLANEOUS
W. C. T. U. COLUMN.
Report of the Committee on Tem
perance and Prohibition at the late
General Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church :
"Reaffirming all our former deliv
erances on total abstinence aud the
prohibition of the liquor-traffic, we
submit for your adoption the follow
ing sections:
I.—PROGRESS AND DUTY.
We have ample reason for congrat
ulation that the temperance reform is
engaging public attention as never
before. While some raicds are yet
torpid, not apprehending the vital is
sues, and while, to some intense re
formers, such loitering in the march
of reform seems unpardonable, never
theless a growing multitude of re
doubtable men and women are learn
ing both to wait and to hasten with
Providence. In this great moral ad
vance. we recognize the duty of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, with all
other Christian bodies, to march at
head of the column, to inspire and
direct the movement.
11. TEMPERANCE ORGANIZATIONS.
In response to the memorial ad
dressed to this body by the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union, we
gladly recognize, with high apprecia
tion, their great work, "preventive,
educational, evangelistic, social, and
legal," and the extension of its sphere
through its eminent representees
abroad in the great Foreign Mission
countries. We also tender fraternal
greetings and a hearty godspeed to
the National Temperance Society,and
all other organizations engaged in
advancing this reform, especially to
all who labor upon a Gospel temper
ance basis. We welcome our adopt
ed fellow citizens to these expanding
ranks. We urge a spirit of kindly
conciliation and cordial co-operation
among all temperance workers. We
recommend that the Temperance
Committees appointed by the Quar
terly Conferences in all our charges,
and the Annual Conference Temper
ance Societies, seek to enlist our peo
ple more fully in this great movement
against the drink customs and the
drink traffic which disgrace our civil
xation.
III.— TOTAL ABSTINENCE.
We renew our time honored testi
mony in favor of total abstinence from
alcoholic liquors. The best modern
has irrefragably demonstrated
that there is no legitimate place for
alcohol, not even in the form of the
milder liquors, and in however mod
erate quantities, in a healthy living
organism. This testimony of science
has been independently confirmed by
the impartial demonstration of life
insurance experts critically seeking
sure bases on which to conduct groat
financial interests. Total abstinence
is now fully vindicated as something
more than "a dietetic whim," or a
fanatical craze; and we can accept of
nothing less than this, as security for
personal safety, and as the basal prin
ciple of the temperance reform.
IV. — SCIENTIFIC TEMI'EBANOE IN
BTRUCTION.
We hail with joy the enactment of
laws providing for scientific temper
ance instruction in the public schools
of thirty four States and Territories,
under which six and a half million of
children and youth are being 1 taught
the evils of alcoholic beverages. We
urge that those laws l>e strengthened,
wherever necessary, by suitable self
enforcing penalties. We also call for
the exclusion from those professedly
temperance, but fatally misleading,
text books, wl 'ch directly or implied
ly encourage the moderate use of the
milder intoxicants. We are glad to
learn that that many of the publish
ers of such books have undertaken a
revision, and are now bringing them
to the scientific standard of total ab
stinence. Let the text books, which
are to shape our children's lives,, be
closely scrutinized.
We trust all school boards will
make a note of this.
"Age Cannot Wither Her,"
remarked an old gentleman, as he
gazed fondly upon the comely little
woman by bis side; "but frankly," he
continued, at one time I was afraid
cosmetics would." The silly little
woman, in order to appear youthful,
plastered her face with different va
rieties of whitewash, yclept "balms,"
•'creams," "lotions," Ac. "Yes," in
terrupted the little woman, "I did,
until my skin became like parchment,
and so pimply and coarse " "Well,"
Mid the listener, "what do you une
now? "Use," waa the reply, "noth
ing but common sense, and Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
Common sense told me if my blood
was pure, liver regulated, appetite
good, that the outward woman would
take on the hue of heath. The 'Dis
covery' did all those things, and ac
tually rejuvenated me."
Its thousands of cures are the best
advertisement for Dr. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy,
—A farmer who Las tried it says
to take the bottoms out of tiu cans
and then set them over garden vege
tables is the best protection possible
from bags.
—Barnum says the elephant has
got more sense than the average men.
Yon can't name a drink outside ol
water he will touch, and no one can
lead him into bad company.
—A Michigan postmaster got the
place because he was lume, and yet
because be was lame he couldn't
overtake n robber who wan making
off with all the cash and stamps.
—One of the questions asked a
candidate by the Military Examining
Board is: "What is the weight of a
regiment of cavalry ?" Why not ask
bow many spoonfuls of sand in a
sandbank.
—Uncle Sam never forgets. Some
defaulting paymasters of ISM are
now being sued lor the deficiency, and
a hundred veara hence Capt. How
gate may suddenly be brought to
time.
—The money spent for drinks in an
American city of 200,000 inhabitants
is put down at $25,000 per week the
year round. That is $1,300,000
thrown away and worse, and seven
tenths of it conies from day laborers.
—"Take the poorest and most
wretched-looking hamlet in America,"
says one who has made the tour,
"overrun it with dogs and beggars,
furnish it with 50,000 rank smells and
two dirty hotels, and you have some
thing to compare with one of the
beautiful Italiau villages some of our
folks rave over."
—A train on a road out of Cine!
nati went out seven seconds ahead
of time the other morning, and 32 pas
sengers were left behind. Each one
bad figured BO closely that he would
have been seated in a car had the
train left on the mark.
THEY DID IT.
What? Cured among others the
following. They write:

"What is the most painful position

"Wbv?" "He is always in the
