'And wii a curw to Aslidale that
bar has been, O vivanl !"
No wonder Mrs. xtV was over
come by ler feelings ; no wmj- stiui
add that the bar liad been a curse, itn
years before, as site stood beside her
young husband, she had the proudest,
lutppiest heart in Aslidale. Siuce then
ai;ts ! none was so humbled ami grief
stricken ; for in that bar her loved and
honored husband had trailed his man
hood in the dust of a debasing sensual
ity. Then, Edward Pratt a kinder-hearted
man could not be found. . But he
"had neither a decided will nor strength
of purpose. The current in which iii
life-boat happened to be usually bore
Mm along ; and even when conscious
that it was gliding towards a danger
ous sea, he opposed to it only a slight
resistance.
Very soon after their marriage, Mrs.
Pratt discovered in her husband a fond
ness for - stimulating drinks. A
prompt yet gentle and loving remon
strance accomplished all she had hoped
to gain the dangerous tempter was
banished from their house. Ail would
have been well, from tliat time forth,
had not the tavern of old Killigrew,
ihe only in Ashdalei stood directly on
the way along which Mr. Pratt daily
went to the store wliere lie was em
ployed as a clerk.
Often, in returning home, he would
Ie in company with young men who
never passed - Killigrew 's without a
word with the companionable land
lord, and a taste of his well-mixed
liquor. It was not in the amiable and
compliant Mr. Pratt to say "no" on
these occasions.
Soon his wife became aware of the
temptation tliat was in his way, and
of Ills almost daily yielding to its en
ticements. She talked with him so
Iierly, yet gently and lovingly as be
fore, ller words aroused no impa
tience no anger no stubborn self
will, lie loved her too well to pain
he with even a frown.
I'll not darken old Killigrew'
door again if it troubles you, Sarah.
I don't care for his liquor. . As you
say it does me no good."
1 sliall be so happy !" sobbed Mrs.
Pratt, hiding her tearful face on the
breast of her husband. Tlierc is
nothing else in life to trouble me."
On the next morning, as Mr. Pratt
was passing the tavern, old Killi-grewT-who.
if Hot behind the bar

was sure to be at his door watching
out for customers called out : v
"Hey! Neddy, my boy! Wliat's

'never raw hira when I thought he'd

must have a weak head."
Killigrew apoke .contemptuously.
Pratt felt the landlord's sneering man
ner almost a3 much as if it had been
applied to himself. It cost him no
Jlirht effort to say Good mooring,"
and passed on witliout takings dtluk
at the bar. ...'--' - , '

had esvsiped them but it was iiot so.
They were in the tavern porch as he
came along, and having taken their

fearcd'to lose a customer, assailed him
with influences tint he had not

as merry as a fiddier." I
From that time the weak young man I
stopped almost daily at the. tavern to j
drink. The feumfation was in his wav, I
he had not sultieien strength of pur-
pose to resist its allurements. This
was con tinned for months, until under
the gentle, yet often tearful solicita
tions of his wife, he again resolved to
stand up firmly against the pressure
of a current tliat" was too steadily
liea ring him onward to the sea of des
truction. And he did stand up lirmly
for a time. Hut, in this contest, the
odds were against him. Old Killi
grew saw the struggle that was going
on in his mind, and took a wicket!
ple:isnre. apart from his love of gain,
in assailing the young man's goot
resolutions on every occasion that was
presented. Sometimes, after allur
ing him into his bar either through
personal influences, or by means of
gay young men who frequented his
house, Killigrew could not induce him
to take anything but a glass f water.
Oftener, however, he gained his pur
pose more fully, and maddened the
young man's brain with hi fiery po-
tatiom.
. And so the work went on. There
was a pitfall in Pratt's way, and ever
and anon lie stumbled tlierein. Ah !
if the pitfall could only liave been re
moved. It served to no use whatever;
gave nothing to the common god ;
was a constant source of annoyance,
injury, aiul loss to tlte people, of Asli
dale. It had liccn digged by Killi
grew, and was always kept deep and
dangerous by him, in order tliat he
might profit by the weakness and in
juries of those who weakly or unwari
ly stumDJea over the halt-concealed
brink.
44 Why did not the people of Ash
dale cause the pitfall to be closed up ?
Why did they not remove this man
trap?" is asked in a tone of surprise.
They had no power to do mo, we
answer.
Xo power!"
You may look surprised, but it is
even as we say. Killigrew liad the
law on his side.
44 The law!"
Yes. for all you seem so incredulous.
The law of the State in which Asli
dale was situated, provided, by sje
cial enactment, for the digging of just
such man-traps as the one maintained
by Killigrew. And any person, not
liaving the love of man nor the fear of
God before his eves, could, bv the
lKiyment of a few dollars into the
State treasury, obtain the rinht to
make for himself such a pitfall in any
highway or street, in anv villa.-v.
t
1 ward Pratt. How strikiny the chanm
in all around him ! Worn out furni
ture was renewed ; abundance of good
clothing for children as well as parents,
gave! ail air of thrill and comfort.
Cheerfu, happy faces were seen, where
before was sadness, pallor, want and
tears.
Three years of solcr industry! How
in that short time, had the wilderness
been made to blossom as the rose!
One day about this time, Mr. ...Pratt
came home with a serious countenance
and a dejected air. His wife noticed
the change, but said nothing at first
waiting until her husband should speak
of what troubled him. . He seemed to
recover a little at . the tea table, and
talked pleasantly, but after supper,
witlHfrewlo himVJfJ nntl sat most of
the evening in deep thought, "with his
head resting -on; bis bosom. 'Several

poor woman she could not have sunk I
down more gloomily. If a death pang !
had entered her heart, the groan from j
her lips could not have been more ;
j fraught with agony. j
i " He o k;ii.s to-morrow," said Pratt,' j
i in a boding voice.
j The unhappy wife arose, and mov
j ing to the side of her husband, flung
i her arms around him, saying as she
did so : "Iet us go from here."
Where?" was responded, gloom

4 1 have thought it over. Sarah,"
replied the poor victim, sadily. We
cannot go anywhere and be free from
the curse. The law sanctions the evil,
and under tin protection of law it
throws out its allurements every where.
Oh, that I was strong enough to resist.
Heaven knows how earnestly I have
sought to overcome this fatal desire ;
but the moment I come within sight
of the accursed tempter. my whole
Iieiug is inflamed, lieason is aliseur

pent." Oil, what a night was that; spent
watchfully in prayer and weeping a
night, the anguish of which 3-ears
would fail to cover with the dust of
forgetfulness ! Morning dawned at
length. To one condemned to die
it scarcely liad broken more drearily.
44 I will strive to be a man, Sarah.
I will look up for strength," said Mr.
Pratt, as he pressed the luuut of his
wife and parted from her at the door.
44 Pray for me."
Tears were in his ej-es as he turned
away; and her cheeks were wet. The
voice of Pratt was not confident. He
spoke ratlier to assure his wife tlian his
own heart. He felt tliat he was too
weak for his enemies.
And he was too weak. Evening
brought him home with all his bright
manhood obscured. One short mouth
sufficed to do the work ot ruin. Then
his poor wife stood pale, tearless and
lieart-broken jsbove the grave ! He
fell so low that he made 110 effort to
rise again and died in drunkenness
and despair.
Tlie jKor widow was not long from
Ids side ; and now his children's home
is the almshouse. Tlie 4man-trap" In
Aslidale is open still. And for the
privilege of scattering ruin and death
around him the new owner pays the
State fifty dollars a year ; aiid the
State takes the money with an eager
Iiand, and seems to think her bargain
a good one.

Swift was walking on the Phoenix
road, Dublin, when a thunder slmwcr
came on. and he took shelter under a
tree, where a party were shelterin.r
aisti two young women and lwo
young men. One of the girls looked
very sad, till, as the rain fell, her tears
fell. The Dean, inquiring the cause,
learned that it was their weddiu"-day;
they were on their way to church, and
now her white clothes were wet. anil
she couldn't go. -Never mind, Pit

took out his prayer-book, ami then
and there married them, their wit

thing complete, he tore a leaf out 'of

wrote and signed a certificate, and
handed it to the bride. 1 1t was as fol

Cut for this pitfall in his way all
might liave been well with Pratt ; but
lil feet were ever stumbling on its
fatal brink. Steadily, for nearly ten
years, luwl he been going down, down,
down ; and at the period when he
came home solier ; for tlie first time
in many mouths, and announced to
hi i wife tlie death of Killigrew, he
wsii almost helplessly in the power of
his adversary. All manly strength
was gone wlien the temptation was lie
fore him. it was in vain that he went
out in the morning strong in his pnr

tlie sight of Killigrew's tavern fired
his appetite to a degree that left him
