THE PILGRIM'S RETURN

In lite silent wntrhtv. of the nlnlii.

Mobbed Hit' earth t all I tv
And thus to Josim did I say
In a btttsMe and rout rite way.
"Jems, Lord, tot the alone
Would I all my sins stttW.
Mv sins are many. Lord of love.
Hidden seems thy fare above.
Mantis of darkness drawn o'er all

Hut my heart is weary, my feel are
sore.
With traveling the paths of wick
edness o'er;
My heart yearns lo Rive thee all
thine own
That I may see thee on thy lieav
enly throne.''
Thus to Jesus did I speak
In accents humble and spirit meek.
And low from within came answering
voice,
"Unto me return. Let heaven rejoice."

A Joint committee consisting of

D C, says, "In the hospitals of the
United States the use of alcohol has
been diminished one half to two
thirds in the past ten years. Some
hospitals have abandoned its use
altogether."
"It is not the one who goes on an
occasional spree and then nbstains
who sustains the greatest Injury.
The one who resorts to alcohol in
small doses daily is being injured to
a greater extent than the man who
drinks to excess occasionally. It Is
the continuous mild Irritation that

Governor Kitchin. of North Caro

legislature said. "Business has ex

a decrease In prosperity. Morality
and industry and frugality have been
to n great extent relieved of one of
