Cherry be wily liana that from his Pectoral curse of drink But he Unto Fourth my I was n route for San Francisco to spend few weeks with friends I had working too hard win ter and bad Been recommended an entire change of scene and A long of the journey had been accomplished when a slight ac cident and were obliged to stay for a day at a small coun try town I my way to the ladies waiting room and picking up A newspaper eagerly scanned its columns to sec if there was anything going on which I could pass some waiting lime Good fortune awaited me for 1 soon found a notice to he effect that a meeting would he held at three oclock that afternoon I could imagine how welcome I should be a white from Chicago the home of our work as it were and doubly so because the recent of our beloved leader Miss Wilfaxd from her year of rest in England- Three oclock found me at the of meeting end I quickly in troduced myself to my sisters of the White Ribbon and a enjoyable noon had there were so many bright animated women present and such a good work seemed to tic on in this country union Hut no face present interested me so much as did that of a young girl about twentytwo or three years of age it was a face once not soon for gotten The girl rather below the medium height not particularly good figure beautiful black hair framing a dark and at first sight an apparently plain face broad full fore- bead well shaped brows but with the blue it has been my lot to ever see So large and- clear so darkly blue- I found out the ladys name to be joined to an odd chris tian name shortened by her friends into Dane She had a somewhat peculiar manner when in conversation standing perfectly still looking straight at the speaker but with a far away look that gave one the impression that she was not hear ing a word of what was being said when suddenly something would be mentioned with which she was fully in sympathy how the face changed it became with feeling the eyes flashed and dilated the mobile lips quivered her hands clasped and unclasped nervously her voice low and distinct gave utterance to words that gave new life to the subject un der discussion and I noticed that when Miss did speak it was much to the purpose and she was listened to attentively My eyes returned again and again to the half foreign face and as soon as the meeting closed I asked Mrs Varney one of my newly formed friends asked me night with to introduce to her This she did and we had a few words of pleasant chat and then we parted Walking down the street Mrs said I sec that my niece Miss attracts you I have asked her to bring father haw tea with us so you will see her before doing so however should like to tell you a little her if you would care to have me do so I said how pleased I should he if she would so Her great grandfather was an Episcopalian clergyman in a little village in England He was as great a drunkard as could well be imagined so much to that in the end his gown was taken away from him and not long afterwards he died in delirium tremens He had two children a son daughter j these grew up as they best could with neither education pro fession nor trade The daughter married a welltodo farmer living In a neighboring village the son also became a farmer and on marrying rather late in life emigrated to America and eventually came to settle in this town He was a fine handsome man farmed well and lived a Chris tian life j he really more than any one have ever known lived Christ liquor of any kind never crossed his lips and he instilled Into all bis eleven children strong temperance principles With the exception of two I need say nothing of the other children of these two one is myself the other Danes father Cornish and in spite of he Christian Temperance which he was brought up he had in- the fatal arrived he about sixty yean of j age tall fine looking but about hi thin stooping figure hung an of frailness as if perfect health was an unknown blessing to him It was touching to witness the affec tion that existed between father and daughter she watched over him with almost motherly care Miss Darrell was taking an Arts course at St College and in two years hoped to graduate I had a molt pleasant evening both Mr and daughter being good conversationalists and wc aid good night regretfully but with the mutual hope that we might meet again in the near future Next morning I proceeded on my journey and reached my destination safely and a most restful and happy summer Some two years and a later again visited little town of Can- this time it was on a short visit to a friend who had gone there to live On my arrival needless to say I quickly made enquires for the Did you know them said my friend Mrs Bertram I was not aware you had ever been here before I told her how I hid been detained by a railway accident and had spent a day and a night with Mrs Vanity And said Mrs Bertram there not one of the family living in the town I uttered a startled exclama tion Not dead surely Yes was the reply Mr tis true died eighteen months ago somewhat suddenly of heart disease Mr and Mrs Varney left for New York six mouths later where the former had been offered a good lion and Dane She died just five months ago Dead Dane dead Yes was the sad reply even now can scarcely bear to tell the pitiful story but as you liked her so well I would rather you knew all it Dane was of a very nervous excit able disposition For four years she had worked very hard at col lege and the sudden death of her father of whom she was passionately fond was a great grief to her She then took up her abode with her aunt Mrs Varney and after they removed to New Dane went to a board ing house till her college course was ended when she too it was fondly planned would follow them and nuke their house her home As the time ofthc final examination drew near nerves and health both to give way and the mental si rain upon her was intense Her friends began to fear the result you see there was no one to watch over her health or forbid her studying into the early hours of the morning However she got through examina tion week then she came here for a weeks rest I was a comparative stranger to her I had met her sev eral times and as with you she had made a great impression I know of no one that had so much personal magnetism She left one Monday evening returning her boarding place for a day or two to pack up for the New York journey An invitation to a patty at the house of a school mate awaited her Dane had hitherto lived loo bus a life to have attended many parlies but she decided to go to this it would in all probability he the last she would have the chance of going to in Cannington It was a very hot night a number of young people had gather ed together and lemonade and kin dred drinks were in great request Dane was standing near an open window talking to her great college friend Kathleen Irvine when a young fellow came up to her and asked if she would not like some lemonade Indeed I would she replied laughing ly I am very thirsty She drained the glass to the bottom and then feverishly held it out to be refilled A sneer crossed the lips of the young man and he cast a significant glance at the bow of white ribbon Dane was You can guess what my answer was as the end I could see was fast approaching The evening paper came looking through it I saw the list of successful students at the Col lege examination and there heading the list was the name of Miss She had reached the goal of her am bition she was a A but alas at what a cost Next day she died just before she made Mr Varney and myself both promise that we would do our best to establish in every Union with hicli we might be connected a Department of Heredity and Hygiene so people may be taught the in exorable laws that govern nur nature for she continued she had no doubt that it was an inherited craving from grandfather Jhich when aroused and fed Lad led to tier death It can never fail to be so and is only a literal fulfillment of the old Mosaic law The sins of the fathers are ra ited upon the children unto the third and fourth generation I will only add that Mrs Mrs Bar tram and myself have obeyed the wishes of Dane Djr- with regard to the Department of Heredity and Hygiene- York County SECOND TUESDAY Various and ports wore read- A special committee composed Meiir Stokes

been mixed with whiskey and for the first time in her Dane knew the taste liquor She told afterwards that at the first mouthful a fierce overmastering craving for more took possession of her She was simply powerless to resist it Kath leen became alarmed at the almost mad glitter of her friends- eyes and gently led her away but the horrible craving would not be stilled More of the stuff she must have Hercom- anion innocent of all blame not what had been put into it fetched a pitcher full of the lemonade and drinking most of it Dane be came oh bow shall 1 tell it hope Women with pale or sallow

Dane was born and gradually alter this he travelled the downward road and in spite of childish prattling and wifely prayers he became a drunkard They never had but one child and when Dane was six years old her mother died but young as she was she had been trained to hate the sight and smell of liquor and though her father drank so much Dane never knew and never has known the taste of intoxicating drink Mrs Darrell- left a charge with her little daughter who much Wed her In character to carry on her work of doing all in her power to get the husband and father to give up drinking Our Union was organized about this time I was its fust presi dent we in connection with it what we then called a Childrens Dane quickly joined and proved one of lis most useful mem bers and I am more than glad to be able to say that from the united efforts mother and daughter and it may be from the prayers of the mother go ing on even though she had left the world Cornish is today one of the most earnest workers In both the Temperance cause Soon reaching Mrs Virney Mr and his daughter never drank Intoxicated dawned upon was pitiful to The at last Kathleen Her grief see to that her hand had

unfortun ate girl In and brought her here Coming as did on top of mental worry and work and great neryous excitement no wonder that brain fever ensued and ended fatally Days of suffering and delirium
