Ho doesn't pause at any of tho lovely residences thntfuco tho principal street, nor docs ho stop to Admlro tho many pleasant object dis played In tho shop window. Not pass ing all these ho atlast turns down a sldo street and enters a misorablo look lag grog shop. 8co him, as ho stands In tho dooi a moment, the lamplight streaming down on his unxlous fucol Ho pushes back tho worn hat, roveal Inga broud whlto forehead and dark clustering curls. Tho gray eyes glance scarchlngly up and down tho long low room, and then ho stops quickly across tho threshold and says to n man bohlnd tho bar: 'MY; Groono, h my father hero?" Tho man nods his head In tho direc tion of a back room, and tho lad (whoso namo Is Walter Luyton) disappears In to tlio mom indicated. Presently ho returns leading a man who walks with tho drunkards stop. Loading his ine briated 'parent to ti soat near the door, ho pushes him into tho chair, saying: "Sit. thoro a moment father," then turning to tho owner of tho saloon, says in clear ringing tones: "Mr. Greene, last week, you promis ed my mother that you wouldn't sell fa ther any moro liquor. You've broken your promise, and her heart, and euro's I'm living, when I get to bo a man I'll bo revenged on you." Tho man hurls a string of oaths nnd shakes his flat at tho boy, but tho men sluing around loudly cheer him. Ho, however, heeds not their pralso but goes to tho drunken paront nnd coaxes him out Into tho street, nnd homoward. It Is all over. Mr. Luyton fills a drunkard's grave. Fortunately for her, Mrs. Liyton owns tho cottago and llttlo place on which they reside. Sho takes In sowing, Walter gets a position lu u Htoro, nnd togethor they earn enough to support themfelves and his brother six years younger than him self. Several years pass away and an eccentric gontlemnn, taking a miicy to "Walter, sends him to nn eastern city to attend bdiool. Ho studies hard, and at tho ago of nineteen, he outers collego Avhero he stays thieo years, graduates with high honors, and now wo seohim sitting at homo by his mother's sldo. Homo for tho first time after flnlehlng hW studies. "Mother where is Theo? he asks suddenly. "Ho went out right after to i, and Its now ton o'clock." "Oh! Walter! I sadly fear that Theo i going tho ramo way your father did, for of lato he goes out every night, and ono ovening ho enmo homo drunk," and Mro. Luyton begins to cry. Waiter, snatches his , hat, sayingj "Whero shall I find him mother?' "Down nt Greene's saloou. Ho don't keep where he used to, but has a find establishment on Fifth Street." I "Oh, my God! has it como to this?' groans Walter, nsho leaves tho cottage.' Onco moro wo see Walter Lay ton hur rying across meadow nnd bridge on his way to a saloon. Presently ho enters tho village. Tho streets nro nlmost de serted. Ho meets ti few men who nro going homo from their work, but soon ho stands faco to faco with a woimn. A woman dressed hi black, and a thick veil hiding her features, but ho knew her. "Eve!" "Oh Walter!" Sho throws back tho veil, revealing a lovely faco with lustrous brown eyes nnd sweet red mouth. "Eve, why nro you on tho street alone, at this tlmo of night?" ho do mands abruptly. ' "No one dares harm the daughter of Harold Greene, Walter, and I was only closing tho eyes of ono of his victims," sho nuswors, somewhat bitterly. Walter looks down in hor faco gloom ily. "But whero are you going, Walter?" In search of my brother." Her faco whitens, sho answers "Oh! 1'vo tried so hard to save him, but In vain; father's so hardenod! but come and I will tako you to him." Mechanically he obeys, nnd together they walk up tho street. They pass tho entranco of the saloon, enter n sldo door, und passing up a flight of stairs eraergo into a brilliantly lighted room whero groups of young mon sit around tho tables playing vnrlous games, with tho wlno cup nt their elbows. Evo looses hold of Walters arm and glidirfg swiftly to tho farther end of the room whero a group of young men sit around a gambling table, touches ono of them on tho shoulder, saying: "Como Theo!" "Ho glaucca up hastily, rises and tho threo leave tho room. Evo's homo Is on their way; as thoy stop at.tho gate Walter bays: "I will bo down early in tho morn ing Evo." morn In tt dawns bright and beautiful. Mrs, Layton and her elder son sit at tho breakfast tabic but they eat llttlo. In the opposite room Theo lies, sleeping off the effects of the wine. Presently, Walter rises, takes his hat and says: "Mother, ten years ago I told Harold Greene, if I ever grew to be a man, I would bo revenged on him for the wrong ho has heaped on us. Now I begin my work." "Leaving tho cottage, ho walks rap idly to tho resldonco of Evn Groeno. Whilohoand tho saloon keepers daugh ter aro forming plans to exterminate tho liquor evil, I will toll yon someth ing moro about her. Her mother hav ing dlod wlillo sho was qulto young nnd leaving hor n largo amount of prop erty and money, but arranged so Mr. G. could not uso It, ho naturuly lookdd for some profitablo business by which to maintain himself. Prompted by tho devil, ho set up a small grog shop in tho village. Not wishing to bo encum bered with tho euro of tho child, ho put Iter under the earn of a good old lady, who sont her to school and taught her to despiso tho business that hor father followed. Evo had heard Walter's threat ten years before, now, at tho ago of eighteen, sho was ready to help him carry it out. Sho had tho town on tholr side, for ovory ono loved beauti ful, accomplished Eva Greene. Now let us seo what they do. Their consul tation lasts long; they talk earnestly. At last It ends. Walter hurries to tho printing office; Evo dons her walking suit nnd goes on some errand of lovo to her father's victims. About eleven o'clock, ns Harold Greene sits by tho door of his saloon, pulling a cigar nnd glancing up nnd down tho long elegant room, n boy en ters with a roll of papers on his arm. Tho lad passes him and hands a paper to the men and waltor-J, who aro stand ing and sitting around; then returning, hands ono to Mr. Greene, nnd quickly disappears. Tho saloon.koepor glances at tho first sentence, thon gives utter ance to a tremondous outli. Supposo we read what ho did: "LEOTUKK TO-:;iGiin AT OltKY'ri HALL. Kubjtto: : Tnrc devil's nit ink.'

Grey's Hall Is directly opposite Greeno'd saloon, and tho keeper walks to tho door nnd looks across at tho building. Yes, tho dnors arc open and 8mo men nro taking a piuno up tho 6teps. Ho watches them u minute, UiLAkETTE FARMER, then hiighing Ironically, says: "Thoy can't dl much that way, that young cub is aodl to try it. Night comes clear aud pleasantly cool. With ninny imprecations on tho head of WnJterJ Layton, ho watches tho crowd enter prey's Hall. Ho walks up the stairs into tho room that Is generally full or'young men; thoro nro still many there, but several nro gone, among them Theo Liyton, who was such a splendid singer, and drew others In. Maddened moro nnd more ho steps out on tho front piazza. A sweet voico floats out to him from tho opposite room; it is Eve's. 'Tho girl Is ngalnst mo, nnd I am helpless!" ho mutters. Tho noxtdny ho hears pmlses every where. Praises of Walter, praises of Eve. Evo is to lecture that evening her subject Is: "My Father's Sidoon." "Moro, desert tliatsaloon.and ho takes his place of tho previous ovening, nnd listens to his daughter as sho eloquent ly, yet sadly relates tho misery and ruin that hor father's liquor store has brought upon the village. In thrilling tones she relates tho incidents of diff erent horrible crimes such ns theft, inurdor, and suicide and many olhers too common where tho demon drink rages. Not u family, not a mini, is left out, nnd sho paints only too truly tho horrors of Intemperance. "The girl ruins my business, but sho tells tho tho truth, nevertheless!" ho says, drawing his breath hard. Tho work goes on day after day.nlght after night, uutll Harold Groono comes with thcrcst aud signs tho pledge. Sovon years havo passed away since Walter begun his revenge. Tho cot tago across the brldgo has boon consid erably enlarged and Is now a. handsome villa. Mr. Greene, and widow Layton sit on the porch conversing pleasant ly. Two children piny In tho shady walk, or run to the gato to seo If papa or mamma nro coming with Undo Theo, who has boon studying for tho minis try and is now coming homo to spend vacation. Presently a cnrrlago is seen approaching, nnd it soon pauses at tho gate; thon a lady nnd two gentleman alight. They aro no other than Evo, her husband Walter, and brother-in-law Theo Layton. They kiss the little ones Arthur and Nellie thon they ore greeted by the couplo on tho porch. Oh! What a happy family they aro. No sleepless nights and weary days spent in watching, caring and pray lug fur, tho loved ones who sip tho dainty wine! No drunken brother nnd son's, no saloon right in tho heart of tho thriving town. No! in the pluco of that saloon stands a noblo hull dedicated to temvkuanok. Would to God there was a temperance hall in tho place of ovory liquor saloon or grog shop in our land. BREVITIES.

Tho following Is Sankey's account of where ho found tho nbovo named hymn: " Whon wo wcro going to tho North of Scotland, after having been In tho Southern part of tho country and tho Northern part of England, and having sung our hymns very much over there. 1 felt tho need of a now hymn. And ono day as wo wero returning to Edin burgh from Glasgow to hold a farewell meeting thero, Just before getting on tho train 1 went to tho nows stand and bought two or threo papers some sec ular, somo religious and in ono of them I found these verses: "Thero woro nlnoly and nlno that B.ifoly lay, In thoMitltorof tlio low," otu. And I said: "That's Just tho hymn I'vo been wanting. I think tho Lord has really sent It to us !" Next day this llt tlo tune or chant that it is set to canto to me. Wo went Into tho noon meet ing, and dear Dr. Bonar, who has writ ten ho many beautiful hymns "I was a wandering sheep, and did not lovo tho fold," and " I heard tho voico of Josus say, como unto mo and rest," ho was there, and tho thought camo to mi', "Wo must sing now th Is now hymn that tho Lord has nont us." Tho tune had scarcely formed Itself In my.' head yet, but I just cut tho words from tho paper, put it lit iron! or mo on tho or gau and began to sing thorn, hardly knowing whero tho tune was coming front. But tho Lord said, " sing it," and as wo wero singing It his Spirit enmo upon us, aud what a blessed meeting wo had ! And away In tho gallery thero sat a l.idy she couldn't sneak to us then, tho mectlnir was so crowded, but sho wroto to mo from Dundee, nnd said: "I thank you for having sung, tho other day, my deceas ed sister's words. Sho wroto them 11 vo years ago. She Is in hoavon now." I wroto to her and said to hor: " Did your sister write any moro llko that?" and sho sent me some other pieces and I havo thorn, nnd ono or two of thorn havo boon sot to music and sung.

IIOIiIjAND. What do you think, young friends, of tlio nunureusor titousanus who nro try ing to cheat ttiemsolvcs nnd others in to tho belief that alcoholic drinks aro good for them? Aro thoy not to be pitied nnd blamed? Do you want to be ono of thoso wretched mon? If wo are to havo drunkards in tho future, somo of them aro to come from the boys to whom I am writing: and I ask you again if you want to be one of thorn? No? Of course you don't! Well, I havo a plan for you that is Just as sure to save you from such a fate as tho pun is to rise to-morrow morn ing. It never failed; and I think it is .worth knowing. Never touch liquor in any form. Trim's trio plan, nnu it is not only worth knowing, but it is worth nuttincr into oractlco. I know you don't drink now, mid it seems to yon ns u you novor would. But your temptation will como, and It probably win como in whs way. you win linti ynurseu. somotimo. wltii n numborof companions, aud they will havo a boltlo or wiuo on tlio table. Thoy will drink, and offer it to you. They will regard it as a manlj practice aud, vory likely, thoy will look upon you as a milksop, if you don't indulge with them. Then wluit will you tlo? Eh? What will you do? Will you say. "Bovs. none of that'MulV for mo! I know a trick worth hiilf-iwlo.on of that?" Or will you tako tho glass with your own common sense protesting aud your conscience making tho whole draught bitter, aud a feeling that you havo damaged yourself, and then go oil' with a shot head aud a skulking soul that at once begins to make apologies for itself Just as tho ho til of Colonel B.tckus does, and will keep doing dur ing all his life? Value of a Trade. Many a young man has boon ruined for llfu because ho never learned how lb do anything. "My father," once Mtld an Intelligent young friend, who found It extremely difficult to earn a scanty livelihood by his pen, "did not think it worth whilo for mo to learn any trado or business." He had been unexpectedly thrown on his own re sources, and, although u man in stature aud years, ho was u more infant in his capacity to earn a living. Thero aro toomanymonofhisclassfioatlngaround tho world men who havo talents, but do not know how to apply thorn. Such cases lead us to look upon tho ctilp.ibili. tp ns very great ol any parents who brings up n sou without having been practically and thoroughly Instructed iu somo way of earning an hoticM liv Iiil' Everv man should have some profession or trade. Then, whether he steadfastly pursues It or not, ho nt least bus an occup ttlou to which, lu an emer gency, ho may resort for tho support of himseifiind others who may bo depend out upon him. Of all men, tho pr.icti eal know-nothing is most to bo pitied. Don't Hun y, Uirls. One of the crying nvllsof thoso times Is tho tendency and disposition of girls to get through girlhood hurriedly aud got luto woiiiuuhoil, or rather Into voung-hidyhood, without wailing to enjoy tho beautiful hcason of glilhood.
