"Now the serpent was more
subtil than any beast of the field
which the Lord God had made.
And he said unto the woman,Yea,
hath God said. Ye shall not eat of
every tr.* of the garden!
Aud the woman said unto the
serpent, We may eat of the fruit
of the trees of the garden.
But of the fruit of the tree
^hich is in the midst of the garden,
God hath said, Ye shall not]
eat of it, neither shall ye touch it,
* lest ve die. (
A.d the serpent said unto the
won.-: n, Ye shall not surely die:
tor G. d doth know that in the
day ye eat I hereof, then your eyes
gt shall be opened, and ye shall be as
Jjj| . g'wis, knowing good and evil.
And when the woman saw that
cn woe iTAiut fnr fruvl ?nil
IUV % IW n MO ?*vrw? *
gfe./ - that it was pleasant lo the eyes,
and a tree to be desired to make
one wise, site took of the fruit
thereof, and did eat and gave also
unto her husband with her; and
fj, he did eat."
s - We have written out the above
fcrvnot
to show the sorrow and death
brought upon the race by the vio'
li'tion of this first prohibitory law,
but to bring out the peculiar chars'
acteristics of the devil when
?* ', tempting men to do wrong. He
^ dosen't nund setting the word of
God at naught and telling a positive
lie. "Ye shall not surely
fa, y die," says he, and then goes on to
show the good things in the tree,
[>,' "good for food," "pleasant to the
y-> ' eyes," "to be desired to make one
I wise." The Devil succeeded so
well that he uot only continue|
the plan, but by long usage he
~ Ii-is improved the language.
Through his agents, Frank G
Tullidge & Ca,of Cincinnxti,Ohio,
he sends into this State the following
description ot his goods
nod says it (ican be had at your
dispensary:"
"Popcorn whiskey is the most
r wonderful whiskey that everdrove
lie skeleton from a least or paint61
landscapes in the train of roan.
It is the mingled souls of wheat
and corn. In it you will find the
- sunshine and the shadow that
chased each other over the billowy
fields; the breath of Jnne;the
carol of the lark; the dews of
ught; the wealth ot summer and
autumn's rich content, all golden
v with imprisoned light. Drink it,
' and you will hear the voice ot
men and maidehs sing the "har&
vest borne," mingled with the
laughter of children. Dr nk it,
*- and you will feel within your
blood the star-lit dawns, the
dreamy, tawny dusks of many
perfect days. For many years
this liquid joy hA been within the
happy staves of oak, longing to
p-' touch the lips of man."
John Gough gave his exper
f ience after taking the liquid he
thought was "longing to touch the
| lips of man," in the following lan
' * . fiuage:
"For three days I endured more
lljjjagony than pen could describe.
even were it guided by the band
of 6ante. Who can tell the hor
rore of that horrible malady? Hideous
faces appeared on the walls,
>:' * and on the ceiling, and on the
doors; foul things crept along the
P bed cloths, and glaring eyes peer'
ed into mine, i was at onetime
surrounded by millions of monstrous
spiders, who crawled slowly,
slowly over my every limb, whilst
beaded drops of perspiration would
start to my brow, and my limbs
. would shiver until the bed rattled
azain. Strange lights would dance
before mv eves, *nd then sudden?

would appall me by its dense
gloom. All at once,whilst gazing

ISON, Editor. ^
at some frightful creation of my
distempered mind, I seemnd struek
with sudden blindness. I knew a
caudle was burning in the room,
but 1 could not see it. All was so
pitchy dark. I lost the sense of
feeling too, for I endeavored to ,
grasp my arm in one hand, but <
consciousness was gone. I put J
my hand to my side, my head, J
but felt nothing, and still 1 knew
my limbs and frame were there. (
An then the scene would change. ,
1 was falling?falling swiftly as an
arrow far down into some terrible
abyss; and so like reality was it
that as I fell, I could see the
rocky sides of the horrible shall;
where mocking gibing, m; wing,
fiend-like forms were perched,
and I could feel the air rushing
past me, making my hair to stream
out be the force of the unwholesome
blast. Then the paroxysom,
sometimes ceased for a few mo
ments and I would siuk back on my
pallet drenched with perspiration,
utterly exhausted, and feeling a
dreadful certainty of the renewal
of my torments."

stuff; believe the Devil's beautiful
lie, take in enough of it, and <Tod's

' Prohibition won't prohibit, and
you'll have the drinking without
gelling the money you might get
out of it. The liquor is good to
make one strong; it is pleasant to
the taste, and to be desired to

your personal liberty and don't
touch prohibition."
This is the last issue before the
Convention. Come all you prohibitionists

Several days ago the railroad
company put in a standard steel
crossing for the trains of the Mallard
Lumber Company to cross
their roads on, so that now the lum

without danger ordelay. All trains
on the Central road have to come to
a halt for the crossing, but as it is
near the depot there is not much
time lost by it.
