Having yost caught a glimpse of the way of sal . vatios, and begun the study of the Bible, sse must give up the counsel and prayers of her beloved teacher, the tweet songs of praise, the precious Bible lessors, the Christian education which would pnt tbe new light in her dull ! eyes'and enrich ber mind, and go back . toa prayerless, wretched home to men . ^--Oatas? spiritual darkness, all because .giris and boys io a Christian land, with free schools and happy homes filled with every comfort, are too careless, too forgetful, yes. too selfish, to lay aside a little money, every week, that these may be helned.' As Mrs. Brown waited a moment, and Ella said socking, but looked very * thoughtful, she continued : 'Now my : dear, that you may feel your responsi b???ty in this matter, you must not ask say one for money for yoor bank this tone, but see what you can do yourself to make sp for this carelessness.* The next morniog, at breakfast, Ella exclaimed, 'Oh, Fm so glad it is Satur .. day ! Papa can ? have fifteen cents to go to the roller-skating rink V .Yes, and here is five for candy/ re? plied the indulgent father. As she was " pasing through the parlor, she spied the neglected bank, which seemed to be reproaching her by its presence. For a few moments she stood fingering toe two dimes she had just received, . iben slowly walked to the mantle, drop? ped them in and went up stairs. The mother's heart rejoiced as she noticed it, but she wisely refrained from saying .'.> anything, and waited to see if this spirit . f ^xSTooWlast. : On Sonday the bank was observed V by ber brolber Charlie, a very generous p-boy. who pot in a quarter, saying. * Wish ( had more? sis, but that will beSpja linio/ <J^ "tt?siry. Mrs. Brown wishing an j ?$one k another part of the city, j ^ayoE?ia two. car-tickets, as the walk? ing was baddy. 'Please give me two five-cent pieces instead,' said the little girl. Her mother smiled and gave her the change. 'I can ride one way and walk the other/ thought the child. But just at dark when the family were beginning to feel anxious, a couple of very muddy rubbers were taken off at the back door, the chink, chink of two pieces of money was heard tn the bank, and a rosy cheeked girl, with unusually bright eyes and a very good appetite, sat down at the tea-table. ^ Tuesday and Wednesday passed with no additions to the back. ?Dear me!' sighed Ella, 'only fi?y^[ five cents, and I mustn't askjtfr any money.' Thursday she wrfcoed anx? iously all day for a^femce to save or earn a penny^-?ttTaU in vain. 'Oh, how hard^ ?t is to get a dollar !' she sa&Tas she went to bed and lay think? ing of the Armenian girls having to go back to their wretched homes just as they had caught a glimpse of better things, and might have become teachers or Bible readers*. Friday morning she chanced to wake earlier than usual, and looking out . of the window, saw that snow had ?alien daring the night Hastily dressing, she took ? broom and began to dead the paths. Being unac? customed to such work, her arms and back began to ache, and her hands to smart, and when it was done, large blisters were visible on the inside of her hands ; but she bravely determined not to complain, but to ask her father for ten cents for the job. The hired girl told the story, however, to her parents before she appeared at break? fast; and when, a few minutes later, her father called her to him, looked at her hands, and gave her twenty-five cents and a hearty kiss, her eyes over? flowed with tears though her heart was very light. When she returned from school, Friday afternoon, her mother said : ?Benny wants to go to the mission band with you, and I have told him he might if he would put half his money ia your bank. He has forty-four cents.' As Benny finished putting in his money, and the grand total of one dol? lar and two cents was announced by the joyful little girl her mother asked : 'What lesson have you learned this last week, Ella V and the answer came quickly: 'Never to put off my missionary money till the last of the quarter, but to think of it ali the time, and lay aside a little every week.' - * ? ti It Pat Him ia Prison. - The giving of intoxicating liquor as a medicine has often produced life? long- disaster. A gentU^^^Garfe on an influentialfnendj^ffiiand said : 'I wis^ vmiJgcHflM^) sind see my son rho is in prison*' id vas surprised that there need for such a-request son is imp n's td bet "would rath prison and to whom he _;ly what brought you hen 'Well,' h? answered. 'I have been robbing my employer.' 'What made you rob him V eI wanted money for theatres, cigars and brandy, and as my salary was not enough I took my master's money. . 'But,' said the gentleman, 'you were a Band of Hope boy, and there? fore what did you want with brandy V The reply of the young man was a sad one., ar.d showed that the evil be? gan years back. Said he : 'When I had a fever in my fourteenth year, the doctor ordered my mother to give me brandy ; she did so, and I never lost my taste for it, aud that.' said be cry? ing bitterly, 'has brought me here.' wWhat a sad case ! The appetite formed, then followed him and became his master; made him forget the teachings of the Band of Hope, his solemn promise not to drink, and bronght sorrow, suffering, and shanie to him and to those he loved. And yet this case is only one of many just as sad. Hundreds have been ruined iu body and soul by brandy and wine taken at first as med? icine. Thousands are cured of all manner of sickness and disease with? out them, and some other drugs can be given in place ot harmful, poison? ous alcohol. We have another boy in mind who was likewise taken very sick. His father, who was a strict total abstain? er, was away from home at the time, and the doctor who was called in told the boy lie must take brandy. The boy objected, and said he could not do it, for his father did not believe in it, and the boy had promised he never would touch strong drink in any form, j The doctor urged him to yield to his j advice, for without the brandy he might not live. To this the noble boy replied : 'I will die, then, for I will not drink what my father has taught me is wrong.' , We are glad to say he did not die, but recovered, and without the bran? dy, and is to-day more firm in his be? lief that liquor drinking is wrong than he was then. We want more of such bu J'S. Wily Aosiey Gray Became a Prohibitionist Hon. Ansley Gray, the Prohibition j orator, in a recent lecture told why he became a Prohibitionist, in the fol? lowing words : 'Immediately after 1 graduated, I was sent to the legisla- j ture in Wisconsin. The next year I ! represented Burleigh County, Dakota, j in the territorial house. My early education led me lo oppose any laws that trenched on 'personal liberty.7 A local option bill was introduced in j the Dakota legislature, and 1 prepared j a speech against it. I had the Amer- j ican eagle, the star-spangled banner, j the goddess of liberty, and all that j mixed and mangled in magnificent j rhetorical confusion, and expected to annihilate the bill with wind. The W. C. T. U. appointed a committee to wait on me and urge me to vote for and talk for the bill. They pre eentei their case strongly. It was a new view to me. I acknowledged its force, and promised not to speak against the bill. They thanked me and withdrew. Shortly after a little Jew, a fellow who had a wholesale whiskey house in Yankton, came into my room and asked me if I was all ready for my<> speech. I told him I had had an interview with some ladies representing the" W. C. T. U., and had promised not to speak against the bill. This made the little whis? key seller mad. He jumped up and said: 'Gray, it won't be ten years before we have so confounded many churches, so confounded many school houses, and so confounded roany w men, that we will have Prohi That was enough. '-Toledpjflade. A Boy's Effete Speech. An esteemed clergyman writes thusj^Pery recently a boy in my only six years of age, was 'sent by his mother to fetch his father home from a public house. Ile found his parent drinking with some other men ; one of them invited the little fellow to take some beer. Firmly and at once the boy replied : 'No, I can't take that, Pm in the Band of Hope.' The men looked at one another, but no one was found to re? peat the temptation. The man then said: 'Well, if you won't take the beer, here's a penny for you to buy some candy.' The boy took the pen? ny and said : 'I thank you, but I had rather not buy candy ; 1 6hall put it into the savings bauk.' The men looked at one another, and for some moments were entirely silent. At length one of them rose and gave utterance to his feelings in these words. 'Well, I think the sooner we sign the pledge and put our savings in the bank the better.' The men immediately left the house. Such was the effect of the two speeches of a boy six years.old. IIovv many old ] people have made much longer but less effective speeches !

Solomon Douglass, a farm? er who resides a few miles from Aiken, in the Clear Water neighborhood sustain? ed a serious accident which may produce a fatal result, it appears that Douglass who was in a helpless state of intoxication had laid down io the lot back of Mr.C. K. Henderson's store and that the wagon of Mr. F. B. Henderson which was be? ing driven out with a load of furniture passed over his leg and head, he not be? ing observed by the driver in the dark? ness. He bled from the ears and seem? ed seriously hurt, and was taken to the office of the Doctors Wyman for treat? ment. At this hour, half-past nine P.
