bishop of Liverpool has requested girls
who are candidates for confirmation
not to wear hatpins, as they prick his
hands in the act of laying them, on
When Doctor Creighton, the late bishop of London, was asked some time ago
low he solved a similar problem, he
replied: "I confirm all the boys personally, and transfer those young porcupines to my suffragan, who is an ojd
vareity oarsman, with the east-iron
hands of a blacksmith."—Youth's Companion.

An 0 pen Letter
Mr. Editor:-
In the issue of the Observer of the
2nd .inst., may haye been seen an
"Open Letter'* to the worthy president
of the W. C. T. TJ. of Saline, in which
with expression of satisfaction were
mingled those of disappointment at
the seeming lack of active work being
done by that powerful organization for
temperance reform.
An article in the Free Press of last
week headed and leaded, "A NOTE
OF WARNING SOUNDED," against
the domination of the D. A. R., Daughters of the American Revolution, I
feel is equally applicable fur the W. C.
T, U. and should be sounded loudly
wherever the organization exists. In
this article great fears are expressed
that the national power of their board
will bring their organization dangerously near the political interests that
dominate the C.tpital. The article
says, "It is "our firm belief that the
.welfare of our order, and even its permanent existence demand the entire
elitnination of politics in any and every
form."
Now! Politics is the great danger
power that to-day threaten the permanency of the W. C. T. U. All reforms that have become powerful in
number haye been looked upon with
greedy eyes by outsiders, and every
means within the ingenuity of man or
within the power of money or even the
church have been used to get control,
and if obtained the existence of the reform movement is frequently ended, it
is drawn into the vortex of tbe whirlpool and swallowed. There seems to
be no doubt that the leaders of the
W. C. T. U. are to-day under the influence of'such outside power and are
doing many things, open to criticism,
that are clearly wrong; often times I
may say foolish, being against the professed obj -,ct of their organization and
the wisest counsellors of the nation.
Now' I unhesitatingly charge the
W. C. T. U. of being the direct or indirect cause of more drunkenness to-day
than any other cause known, and I
really hope that our Saline organization of fearless lady workers -will investigate this charge; if found false
denounce it as such, if true then take
such action as may seem necessary to
s*op tbe tidal wave of drunkenness.
M*iy the same boldness be seen that
characterized their action against the
unlawful proceedings Qf Mrs, Carrie
N.ilion infusing* the hata'net and smashing the dQQrs und windows of liquor
saloons pf I^ausas a few weeks since.
Wb vmn\ no iQqre ftf the Nineteenth
Century Temperance Societies. We
want no more societies whose work for
temperance is all on paper. We want
.more tban a Hood of literature labor.
We want solid, honest temperance
workers having only the good of the
cau>e at heart, the prevention of intemperance and yice. and the salvation
of mankind. We want the Rum Seller
engaged in some res-pecttible calling,
and their hell-boles turned into comfortable homes for the families of those
they have wronged.
Now, ladies! Give no more of your
valuable liqfe in qpho'^iflg an institution tl*.at "--as evidently hat its day in
doing bit i§ now in the hands of political sharpers with an army of paid
literary flatterers with false reporter
at their heels. N. P. S.
Mr. F. D. Arnold, Arnold, la., writes:

about three years. Hap", .to get up

for over a year," says Henry ,R.

no relief until I used Banner Salve,
After using one-half box, I was perfectly cured. I cannot' recommend it
too highly." Unterkircher's drug

The Sreat Scourge
Of modern limes is consumption.
Many cures and discoveries from time

to cure all cases in the early stages and
always affords comfort and relief in the
very worst cases. Take no substitute.

tfpe^3 vyom out, about ready to give
up, whenl began to use* Electric Bitters, but'six bottles completely cured
me and made mi's feel like a'new man."
