Last winter I waa troubled with a moat
unortmfortable itotilngr htuaor affeetlus

intolerably at night, and burned to Intense

ov r them. 1 waa alao a iiinerer from a.

appetite was poor, and my ayitain a good
deal ran down. Knowing tbe veins of
AvsR'a ttA.sAJrARi.uk bf obaervatloa of
many other can, and from personal uss
in former yar, I began taking It for tbe
above-named dlaorder. My appetite im
proved almost from tbe flrat dose After
a short time the fever aad itching were
allayed, and all signs of irritation of tbo
skin disappeared. My catarrh and cough
were also , cured by the same means, and
my general health grrniiv improved, until
it is now neeUeah I fa I a hiuidt-ed par
cent strungei, and i attribute those results
to tho use of the Sau.U'AUIM.a, which
I recommend with all confidence s the

I will give you s little of my experi
ence st s school tesober. Before I com
menced tesoblnf, I aad ptirsosdsd my
self that, ss a tcscber, f Wottlri please
everybody, and cjnsequtsitly could
tasks life a success to tbsl department
But to my greet surprise, sfter com
mencing, I soon found I list sll men
were nol of the ssms misd with me, sr
among themselves. I soon discovered
that a large part of my patrons ware
educated under the old system, folly
indoctrinated mith'otd time views, -snd
bad never been con vt need that say
school books, school teacher, or school
system, were ss good as those of their
early days. Indeed they regarded any
improvement or changes, as innova
tion, unwarranted by law, or Gospel,
and only intended te unlearn the world
of die wisdom that had accumulated,
and been inpsrted all the wey down to
themselves, who, iu their own estima
tion would be the lest survivors ef si)
tbst wss good. In their dsy, parents
controlled the children, sod whipped
the boys, sod girls for svsry offeoce,
even up to mature years, and teachers
did the same whipping for every oflsnee
sad for no oflenoe. They evsn whipped
for want of intellect. This class sd vis
ed me to do ss lbs teachers of their dsy,
so I concluded to be sn old time teach
st, and went to work on tbst Hoe, 1
then discovered, that soother part of
my patrons bsd been educated under the
new system, bad never been governed
eithst st home, or at school, or whipped
at either piece, in fact left to do as they
plsesed, had they governed their homes,
snd run all the schools ibey bed gone
to, believed themselves to be the em
bodiment of right raiding, refinement,
and thorough disciplios, sad leallj the
first generation, since the flood, that
bsd been raised, and educated aright,
they were bringing ut their children
the seme way at heme, aad wished tbess
so treated at school, Some of this class
interviswsd me,repri steaded ras severe
ly for want of ability to teach, declared
I belonged W tbe age in which their .
grand parent bsd lived, said Slomoo, j
who bad eecti the ealutery rffwci of the

aoother clsss. between these two. This ,
m ' w e t ... v .a
class tb-Kight childrea abould be whip
pel wbea shay needed itf aad at no
other time, This view appeared reason
able, aad wss at ouce endorsed by my
better judgment, so i began whipping ,
the boy and girls when they needed it.

I will attempt to plsase ne ene but my

in every instance endeavor to do nstioe
to ail parties, dealing with each as he
deserves, that J will be chief in my

may call me hereafter heathen, barbar

kill me if tbey oboese, but tbsy shsH

The Hall of the House Tueedsy

a chamber In which had been held a

no quorum could be collected for any

iiy Dear Sitters and Friend :
Si often do my thoughts seek tlx m
out, snd my prayers follow afcr th' ;r
patient worker, that T hsve tesoived
to send s Istter of tender rem m'.rar.ce
and Inquiry to svsry W. C. T. U. South
sad West, which it has been my rate
fortune to visit is ths pest four year.
"How goes the battle?' This is a
question always with me. Will not
your Union through some efficer or
member, designsted for thst pnrose,
write me minute replies to thst'grest
question
Especially tell me if you regularly
meet for prayer that God would 1 It,
at tt . m m -
toe unnauan woiX of tin land, to
overthrow the liquor traflic, not by cm
might or power, but by Hie pi,it.
I am also moat earnestly hoping that
you bare gathered the children into a
cold water army Our dear Anna
Gordon ia now aasiatanl surintendent
of this depsrtment of tbe Nalionsl W.
C. T. J.t snd will send you sit porsibfr
hslpasnd suggestions, if you will notify
her of your wish.
Msj I aak also if you are securing
Biblical temperance lesson in the Sab
bath Schools, snd temperance hooks
and papers io the ssme ? The latter
may be bsd without c st to tbe W. C.
T. U., if tbs officers of the school sre
favorable.
Scientific temperance instruction in
the public schools, snd freqtieut srticies
snd items ia tbs nublic nreae. are
s ,
methods of .rest imiorts..ee as vest
know. Pu'Jic meetinc. sermons bv
pastors, priri to tbe children for es
says, all these qui edncationel meth
ods are doubtless pnrsied hy von ao far
as practicable.
I am confident that reeding by eonrre
in tbe society, s book like Frances
Power Gobbe, cn the "Duties of We
mss," (5cts eot. Geo. H. Ellw, Bos
ton, will send it.) would greatly stimu
late thought and increase the intern t
of members.
Now, dear sinters, tell me what yon
are doing and I ahsll learn what
methrwie haws nvlwi twecr mnA K
to help others by your experience. 1
hope you teed our Uriion Signal, which
is s dear bond of union between us

cernlog relief legislation by the present
congress. It is said tost a prominent
western distiller has returned from

Washington with the determination to
devote bis energies toward as much of
a preparation as is now possible for the
crisis in ths whisky msrket. He
agrees that there is now no hope of any
extension of the bonded period.
However, this may be, it will not be
wise or well for temperance people to
relax their exertions just yet. A lul
of sffert on our part ia perhaps just
