recalls of David's sowing sin. Lastly he
called to memory the Apostle Paul who
Is the author of the words of the text.
Lis sin sowing consisted In persecution
of the Christians, whipping stoning and
killing them. He showed how the epos;
tie himself had reaped a harvest laths
same degree as he had towed.. ' 1

It ii not alwp 71 that yon reap the harvest
yourself. VThe sins of the fathers are
visited opon the children unto the third
andLjrth gener'.lon.- In support of
this augment hs mentioned several act.
ual cases the mose prgmlnent being the
one of Andrew Johnson, who; wat a
drinking man and whose children were
either directly or indirectly . affected by
the liquor curse. J , . ' 1 " '
k'. The evening ' discourse ; was on" the
Bjomp; Digger jrsa remarkably
strong talk and tbat it was appreoieiea
IrsS evident from thS'ltbrms !of applause
that wera heard many times during the
addnas. The speaker ad the wlerfal
art of mingling the humorous wltb tbe
pathetic so that the' teilr,. would follow
laushter or laughter the tear beoause ox
his apt comparisons and Uustratlone. And
thrnn.h it all he would deal some vlgov
trnaaud tellfbg ilowi on the liquor traf
fic.
' He said that be was an American Oltl-
aen as patriotic and loyal aa any other
man but that he could not overlook the
fact tbat thl country ,wa menaced by
some very black and disastrous storm
clouds. He felt that a storm wat Inevita
ble and he felt that he should utter a
warning.'
The first cloud, he said, was Auarcby
the mo'.herof Anarchy Is the saloon. In
th Anarch! t's Uiala ia Cblcago a few
years ago the evidence developed that all
the great crimes end destruction due to
anarchy were planned and concoc ed
In a saloon. The great anarchist, Joan
Most, Is a saloon keerer and the funtly
of the assassin of Pres. McKlnley are
saloon keepers.
The second cloud Is mobism. btriaes
are the cause it mobs and the saloon are
t fomentiei of riots and mobs. It is
always the aim of the Mayor of a .city
where there Is a mob apt to oocur 10
older the saloons closed. This has been
observed many times. Only recently In
the city of Baltimore during the fire the
Mryor ordered the taloons to be- closed
la order to be sble to preeerve tbe
peace. 1
Tbe third cloud wat that ofeleotlon
frauds. There is not., a city, town or
village In this country but what the sa
loon controls the law. making element
and can control the ballot , The Liquor
Dealers Association claim the balsnoe
of power, and they have a capital of
many millions of dollars ta enforce
their claims. " There Is no election In any
great city but that the saloon power has
to bs consulted.; The fourth , cloul is
divorce. ; How often has the demon of
'drink broken up a home.T , Who can not
number among their acquaintances or
friends or relatives , some, home where
divorce Was necessary on acoount of
liquor. It la Said upon the beat author
itr that 65 per cent of the divorcee of
this country are . caused by the saloon
Cloud number five was financial pros
perity. He gave an object : lesson and
showed clearly hew the saloon docs not
pu the money It gets Into circulation
but merely makes it serve its own inter
est. ; He showed how revenues aenvea
from taxes upon liquors were turned to
keep their owa business prosperous and
was not used for the general ptospulty
of the eounirv at alL
The arguments were coootuslve end
forcible In every respect and the speaker
and his cause" won many friends. After
tbe talk s gieat many In "the audience
eame around and thanked Mr Bteuart
for his Umely speech.,'; , ' .m

AT
VTrssrA'crfliy ;
u tamor came on my neck and la a
day or two It was as large as half aa
orange. I was very much alarmed for
fear - It was malignant. My friends
tried to persuade me to consult my
physician; hot dreading that he would
Insist on using the knife, I would not
consent to go." Instead, I got Cutlcura
Resolvent and Cutlcura Ointment. I
took the former according to dlreo.
Hons, and spread a thick layer of the
Ointment on the swelling. On renew-
lng It I would bathe my neck In very
warm water and Cutlcora Soap. In a,
few days the Cutlcura Ointment had
drawn the swelling to a head, when It
broke. Every morning It was opened
with a large sterilized needle, squeezed
and bathed, and fresh Ointment put
on. Pus and blood, and a yellow,
cheesy, tumorous matter came ont. In
about three or four weeks' time tbia
treatment completely eliminated the
tumorj -, The Soreness that had ex
tended down Into my chest was all
gone, and my neck now seems to be
perfectly welLfe;'irti-i.t;i t5 -'
. . About five or six years ago my sis
terhad a similar experience, need the
Cntlcnra Remedies with magical effect.
I am willing you should use my testi
monial, with the farther privilege of
revealing my name and address to ends
persona as may wish to substantiate
the above statements by personal letter
to me." Chloago, Nov. 13, 1902.
