The National TcmieTancc Society celebrated its twentieth anniversary at the Broadway Tabernacle; on Tuesday evening. General Clinton B. Fiske pre siding. A large assembly tilled the Tabernacle, and the meeting was ono of the most enthusiastic and i aspiring that the society lias held for years. Mr. J. N. .Stearns, Secretary, read the unuual report, ol which the follow ing is an abstract: Much effective work has been done to promote the more thorough enforce ment of restrictive and prohibitory laws. Three additonal Slate Legis latures (Oregon, Rhode Island and Tennessee) have voted to Kiibmtt Pro 'hibitory Constitutional amendments to the people. More fully than ever be fore the suppression of the li juor traffic has ootne to be recognized as one of the foremost issues in local. State and National politics. Nearly every Legislature in the Na tion u h oh has been in session during the year has agitated the liquor ques tion. Kills of every variety have lecn presented for eonstitut'onal prohibi tion, local option, kcal prohibition, scientific temperance, high licence, pro hibition, .anli-treatinir, sis well as for amendments to existing laws aim 8t without number. '1 he liqtior interest has been strongly Tepre-ented at every cap tal to secure licence lor their busi ness with few restrictions and to op pose all legislation which interferes with I heir trafhe. So far as heard from no adverse legislation has been consum ma'ed. The Tutted States Senate again passed the lull 10 provide for a Nation al Comm.sMon of Lnquity ronrcrning the a'coholic liquor trailic The House of Represent all vrs paed a bill in creasing the li ftior-licenso fees in the District of Columbia. The.disttllurs aud whisky speculators secured from the late Secretary of the Trea-ury a riding in their special interest, the practical effect of which was to extend the bond ed w hisky period for shyqix months au extension which the previous Sec retary of the Treasury aud Con gress had declined to authorize. To evade the payment of the already overdue reenue tax, whisky has to some extent beca withdrawn and shipped to forcgn ports, and returned aud placed on the market us imported whisky. The present Secretary of the Trea-ury has thwarted this speculative scheme by directing that the customs officials fiall turn over to the Internal Revenue officers all such re-imported whisky for the collection of tho in-terual-roventie tax. Thus in various ways the liquor question, in its national as- evt, assumes steadily increasing prominence and importance. During the year the receipts from memberships and donations have been $.,095.81; legacies $ 1284. 57; invested funds, $1,51U7. making a total of SSSDr.Oo. The total missionary work of the society has been over $12,000. During tlte past year there have been published 132 new publications, six of which have been bound volumes for Sabbath-school libraries, 1G pamphlets and 110 tracts, lesion leaves and mis cellaneous publication. William 1. Porter. Esq., treasurer, re ported tho entire rece pts of the year to bo $60,218.14: total expenses, G0,239t 77. Cash on hand Mav 1. lSSo. $36.64.

'It does seem as if some people liave more than their share of trouble," said Mrs. Hilton, in a despondent tone, as she held out a thin, toil-worn hand to Mrs. Bowen, a neighbor, who had stopped on her way 'down-town" to iqqu.re after her health. "It docs seem hard that you shauld be laid up in this way, that's a fact," said Mrs- Bowen. sympathetically, as she drew a chair to the bedside. ''The mother of a large family can't very well afford to treat herself to -the luxu ry of a broken limb." 'I don t know bow ihey are all going to get along without nfc." said Mrs. Hilton. "My hands have always been full to overtlowinir, and now, of course, everything will be at a stand-.till. It makes me sick at heart to think of it" "You mustn't think of it,"-fl.tid Mrs. Bowcn. "You mnst keep quiet and tranquil if you want to get well fast. FretLng is sure to give vou a fever." "It is very well to tell me to keep tranquil," said Mrs. 'H Hon. the tears r'sing to her eves, "but how can I help fretting when know that I shall prob ably have to lie here six or eight weeks utterly ttuable to do anvthmg. Tne doctor tells me that tho house will get along somehow, but that is cold com fort. If I only had a sister who would come here now, how thankful I would be." "'But there is Eleanor," said Mrs. Bowen. "She is nineteen, I believe; certainly old enough to take charge of the house for a few weeks. You must have torgotten her." "Indeed, 1 -often do forget her," sighed Mrs. Hilton, "I see so little of her. She stays in her own room day in and day out Eleanor! I might as well have no one m charge as Eleanor. She is of no use. Tlie door opening into the adjoining room was ajar, aud the mother's words were heard distinctly by a young girl who was standing listlessly at a win dow, looking ont on the garden below. She started, und her face flushed pain fully. "Of no use," she repented to herself in a. low voice. ' How unkind of moth er to say such a tiling! And how un just" Unable to repress the angry tears which rose to her eyes, and fearing dis covery, she left the room. and. runn ng down" to this library, threw hetself on tlio well-worn lounge, burying her face in the patchwork cushion. "I wonder if my own mother would ever hao said such a cruel thing. ' she thought, as her tears tlowed freely. .-wc wouiu nave iotiua me 01 some ttse, I know." She could not remember her own mother, who had died many years be fore, but heretofore she had had no par ticular fault to find with the stranger who had taken that mother's place. The second Mrs. Hilton had been warned, both by relatives and frieuds, that the position of a step-mother was a dillic.ilt one to 1 11 acceptably, and she had, from the first, been very cautious in her treat ment of Eleanor, telling herself that the child should never le able to say that she had ill-treated or made a servant of her. This feeling had become almost morbid, and when Eleanor returned from boarding-schooL she was treated with the consideration usually shown a guest She had one of the best rooms in the house, and was nevercalled upon to assist in any of its duties. She spunt her time as she liked; read, embroid ered, crocheted, made calls, and went to entertainments without, suggestion or hindrance from her step-mother. And. having no especial duties to per form, she found life very dull aud weari some. "If I only had some particular talent that I could turn to account," she often thought "TJien I would have some thing ttfwhich I could look forward. ana the days would not seem so Jon".' Many an idle hour did she spend' in foolish dreaming of the future and what it would bring her, and the sight of the iernctually over-flowing stocking-basket on the window-teat bv her mother's chair did not suggest to her mat mere was plenty or work close at hand if she only chose to take it up. She did not know that she was leading a sellisii, aimless life, wasting time that God had intended her to use for tlte good of those about her. She felt very unhappy as she lay on the old lounge, and told herself that she was unappreciated and had beo very much maligned. She thought she cou.d never forgive her step-mother, or feel kindly toward her again. " I wish I could go a war some where." she sobbed hvatericalfv. "Of course, slic wocld be glad to get rid of iie. since I am of so use." Just then she heard Bridget's voire m the next room: 'What have ye got oa ver b&t ja.: iur. 000.- inia ain't ao thne to fee trearuV out ye best clo'es wid ve ma lying in bed wid a broken leg; " -1 tore mv everr-dm- UoK swered Bob, ""and of course I'll aare to wear tak i)c ri'ht alon mow mother's sick and cant aiend the an- mL y- ,lont y Miss snr to tend it?

Well, won't mother he surprised when she knows of it!" Eleanor winced. The careless, words cut her like a knife. SupjKjr had been rather a cheerless affair since Mrs. Hilton's accident Bridget had had all the work of ths house on her hands, and had given lit tle thought to the preparation of the meals. Doctor Hilton, driving home at six o'clock, and feeling weary and out-of-sorts, expected to tind the dining room cheerless aud cold, and a hastily prepared repast He was therefore pleasantry surprised to lind a bright tire in the open grate, and Eleanor Hit ting about a well-spread table. " You are late, father," she sa'd, af fectionately. "Yes, and very hungry," he an swered. " That toast look's unusually good, Nelly," with a glance at tho ta ble. " Perhaps that is because I made it father." " J'ou" He looked at her keenly. "Yes, I must be housekeeper now mothor is laid up," she returned, as she rang the bell for the children. The doctor was silent for a moment, then approaching his daught -r he put his arm about her slender waist aud drew her gently to his side. "I always felt sure that yon only needed an opportun'ty to show your noble qualities, daughter,' he said, with a tcndei kiss. The tears rushed to Eleanor's eyes, but she had no time to reply, for the boys came trooping in. and she had to take her phice at the tea-tray. Mrs. Hilton was forced to confess to herself at the end of a week that sho hiul mis judged her step-daughter. The wheels of the household machinery turned a easily and smoothly as when her own hands had been at the helm, and Bridget declared that her young mistress was a "born cook." "You see, I was right in thiukingyoti could derend on Eleanor in th's emer gency," said Mrs. Bowen. one day, as she sat by Mrs. H lton's bedside. "Yes, and I was vcrv wrong in say ing she was of no use,rt sa d the invalid. "She has surprised and delighted me." And Eleanor, happier thau-shehas" been since childho-Kl, discovered thai there might be real pleasure in tho faithful performance of even the homo liest duties; and the days were no longer tluii ana t Uious. Whatever her handr found to do, she did with her m ght and the approbation of her parents wa. all the praise she cared for. Between herself and her step-mother sprang tin a love both deep and true: but Mrs. Hilton never knew that Eleanor had overheard that conversation with Mrs. Bowen, and that it had been the turning-po'nt of her life.

The average man or woman would feel disgraced tf it were known they had eaten liver. Rat.-ethe price for liver to fifteen or twenty-live cents a pound and there would be a rush for it.

Otit in the Atlantic, over twelve hun dred miles from Land's Kml and about six hundred miles duu west from Lisbon, 1 cs the beautiful island of St. Michael's, the largest of the nine islands forming the Archipelago of the Azores. It is beautiful in its variety of mountain, lake and valley scenery, in the rich verdure of its cultivated lands, its equable mild climate and in its won derful thermal springs. The principal commerce ot SL Michaels is the oryige crop. The mode of picking and pack ing remains unaltered since early day. The city Ponta Delgada, the capital of the island, is et in orange garden, and the air in the early mornings or late in the evenings comas laden to you with-the fragrance of the orange blos soms. Either in the town or in the suburbs you see the gates of many orange gar dens invitingly ojen. and you will be politely invited to walk in and help yourself to flowers and fruit. If you are a stranger the "cabeca." or head man of the garden, will bring you a bunch of lovely camellias and a branch on which hang clusters of ripe oranges and invite you to be seated on a garden bench, for though it is the month of February you can enjoy sit ting out of doors. There you" can watch the juvenile toilers sorting the fruit and the dried leaves of the Indian corn. The picker can cat as many or anges as he pleases and take away every evening a bsg or basket full of fmit. that has fallen from the trees, which he sells at thirty or forty for a penny.
