T. L- li ungues. We notice this sentence in news paper report: "Nearly eery church is represented in the W. O. T. TJ." nieauiug in the local onion nnder dis cussion. That is as it should b. This also should be: The W. C. T. U. represented in every church. A church iu which uo white ribbon is ever seen is a place for W. C. T. TJ. missionary work. We wonld sug gest that local unions make lists of churches within their vicinity sol find ont how close or how remote is the tie between the churches and the W. O. T. TJ. Having ascertained these relationships clearly, it will not be difficult to find ways and means to establish stronger ties or strengthen those that alrnadv exist. The W. C. T. U. stands firmly on the rough hewn but solid platform on No-Compromise. Tbey do not be lieve that a city is benefited by ser vice paid for oot of the wages of sin, money wet with tear and red with blood. We see no reason why a city, being bnt an aggregation of indivi duals, should be less brave than a man or a woman who, facing need, turns not to questionable ways and means for tnpply, but waits npon God's promise to supplement right-doing by an allowance of material needs. God waited npon at the ballot-box in un compromising votes: God waited np on in the pulpit in uncompromising sermons; God waited upon every where in an onoompromising front to the liquor traffic, will lead at last to God's end which is oars its destruc tion 1 And to onr worthy crntom porary w. would say that better than man's invention of ways and means is God's living promise: "Commit thy way unto the Lord, trust also in Him and He eball bring it to pass." We do not realize the importance of the unoonscioos part of onr life min istry. It goes on contiqaallv. In every greeting we give to another on th4 street, in every moment's conver sation, in every letter we write, in every contact with other lives, there is a subtle infleence that goes from us that often reaches farther and leaves impression than the 'things them selves that we are doing at the time. It is not so much what we do in this world as what we are, that tells in spiritoal results and impressions A good life is like a flower, which, though it neither toil nor 'spin, yet ever pours ont a rich perfume, and thns performs a holy ministry.
