OUR-CKUSE.

" The recent election settled who is to be the occupant of the Presiden- tial chair at Washington for the next four years, hut it did not settle the far more important question as to how much longer the rum oligarchy is to retain its seat of power in the nation. It did not decide how much longer the people of this nation must be taxed to support the vast army of criminals and paupers for which this drink traffic is responsible. It did not decide how much longer we are to continue to pour our three or four hundred million dollars a year into the cruel and voracious maw of the drink monster. It did not decide how many thousands more of the help- less and innocent, of suffering wives and starving children, are to be sac- rificed to the greed of the same monster. It did not decide how much longer our homes are to be ruined, our young men debauched, our peace destroyed, and our safety imperilled by the satanic agency of the rum- shop. All these questions are still before the people.

" The grand work of the temperance reformation is still before, not far, we trust, but still before. This is not the time for those who labor in this cause to lay their weapons down. The legions of the enemy are still in the field, as active, as vigilant, as merciless as ever. Equal activity and vigilance should be theirs who are fighting the battle for the home, for God, and for the peace and happiness of the land. Theirs it is to con- tinue the work of educating public sentiment on the drink question; theirs it is to continue the work of besieging the legislative halls of the States and the nation for more effective and repressive temperance laws ; theirs it is to take advantage wherever possible of the existing laws to bar out and crush out the rum traffic ; theirs it is to work and pray and pray and work, to be laboring in season and out of season for the complete and final overthrow of the liquor power in all the nation."

It is not brave when the world goes

And the sins we hate abound, Lwronoi To weakly sigh for the better land,

Where sin is never found. I'd scorn to sail for a quiet shore

While a brother met the storm, I'd rather be the smallest crank

That moves a great reform.

Then lend a hand as the world moves on

In the work for truth and right, Nor sigh for rest till we can shout,

Our land is free from blight. A host will sink 'neath the waves of sin.

Set afloat the temp'rance planks ; Perhaps some ransomed soul at last

Will praise the Lord for cranks.

Shouting the cry of Prohibition ; We'll sing our song of triumph, Thro' the East and thro' the West, Shouting the cry of Prohibition. Cho. — Our country forever, Hurrah, boys, hurrah ; Down with the wine cup, Up with the cross; While we rally round our cause,

Boys, rally once again, Shouting the cry of Prohibition.

2 We are standing by the Home, We are standing by the Right,

Shouting the cry of Prohibition ;

We have 'listed in the war, And we're ready fo^ the fight, Shouting the cry of Prohibition.

3 The foe is strong and mighty, And sustained by Uncle Sam,

Shouting the cry of Prohibition; But with God, our chosen leader, We'll drive it from our land,

Shouting the cry of Prohibition.

4 Three cheers for Prohibition, For the cause that's sure to win,

Shouting the cry of Prohibition; And then we'll bid farewell To whiskey, beer and gin,

Shouting the cry of Prohibition.

'Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging ; and whosoever is deceived thereby

is not wise."— Prov. xx> i. j^ q^ Taylor.

1. Wine is a mocker, and strong drink is raging, For so does the Bible declare ;

2. Wine is a mocker! Tho' seems it socharming,Tho'some call it wholesome and good ;

3. Wine is a mocker! it leads into sinning The thousands who perish from drink ;

4. Wine is a mocker! The social glass, shun it ; Oh, linger not where 'tis in sight !

3 You see, I was treated for true friendship's sake,

But oh, 'twas the curse of my life, I'd rather he'd struck through my innocent heart

A murderer's death-dealing knife. They said 'twas a costly and generous treat,

They praised as they passed round the bowl, Who'll reckon the cost? what's the worth of a life ?

Who'll tell me the price of a soul ?

4 I would'nt have gone to the bar-room alone,

And called for my first glass of wine, But, urged by companions, for friendship I took

The treat that I could not decline. There're thousands who never to drink would have learned

If treating had never been known, So, if you will drink what kills body and soul,

I pray you to drink it alone.

Could you see your tinselled pleasures Are but masks to hide despair, Would you not then turn to Je- sus While it still is called to-day? Turning off from false companions, Dashing down the poisoned bowl, Would you seek the way to heaven? Would you not for pardon bow?

You would heed when others warn you, List - en to their earnest prayer. Ask him now to take and keep you In his blessed, holy way. Would you seek your mother's Saviour, Ask - ing mercy for your soul? If you knew — but oh, why ling- er ? Come to Jesus, come just now.

SUGGESTIONS,

Those who have charge of an enter- tainment are generally the best judges of details of preparation. But perhaps to some a few suggestions may be helpful.

The stage would be appropriately decorated with growing plants or ever- greens.

Queen: dressed in white; crown of flowers. A small, fancy cane tied with ribbon would answer for wand.

Rill A: white dress decorated with water lilies (very pretty ones can be made of paper.)

Bubble : white, decorated with ferns.

Pitter - patter Company : fancy suits of cheap, grey material, dotted with spangles. Small Japanese um- brellas, carried closed, as rifle. Various

movements can be executed with these in the umbrella drill, such as change and present arms, opening umbrellas and holding as shields, etc.

Merma : white dress, with aqua-ma- rine ribbons.

Arch : a parti-colored dress, or white trimmed with ribbons of the rainbow colors.

Officers : plain clothing, with white stripes down the pants, and stars of office

Mixie : grotesque suit of pale, sickly blue.

Pixie : white suit, slashed with yel- low and red.

Other Fairies: girls dressed in white or light shades, — Nile green, sal- mon, pink, etc. Boys with white shirt- waists and fancy neck-ties.

THE QUEEN'S WELCOME.

Faithful subjects, welcome, all ! Welcome to my palace hall ; Speak, my fairies, first and least, Afterward the joyful feast.

Know ye all your mission true, — Mirrors of the sky's clear blue,

Of the sunshine sparkling bright, Of the moonbeams' tender light ?

Blessings must ye ever be, Busy in love's ministry ; Now your Queen awaits to hear Your reports, please, for the year.

[ While the prelude to the next song is being played, all but Rilla courtesy and retire to seats prepared on the stage. Rilla advances towards the Queen, bows, and sings .]

I have an echo song to-night,

To please your majesty, Borne hither on the swelling voice,

That rises from the sea. For as the waters rolled along,

They touched at "Ocean Grove," And caught, from thousands singing there,

These notes of faith and love.

Pixie, to mark your degradation,

Still worse must be your condemnation ; Till penitence shall set you free.
