The question fe, whose boys? My boye, your boys, or our neighbors* boys 'will become the first victims, and since -i all are is danger of gliding into the mau- ^-1 traps, an enlightened statesmanship will suggest the closing up of the dead-falls !<>'• forever. / How ctwi to grind up mother's boy,' ' fan<vwif and confiding! I hate the Bar loon, for its hands are red with the blood of mother's darling boy. His footsteps are dogged night and day. He is first , plied with lemonade, then a few drops of damnation afe added! Gildeds aloons, charming pictures, enchanting music, tt&d the "scarlet woman" finish the al- : isremente into this hole of death. How " much is mother's boy worth? what's ; : tiie price? To bring him into life, she irent down into the very jaws of death. Tluxragh weary years, in sickness and in - health, her earthly hopes culminated in •Bother's boy. At mother's knees he was early dedicated to God, but the strain of temptation was too great. In an un guarded hour he fell into the meshes of the saloon infamy, and hope giving way to despair, the doting mother wishes he fed never been born. From cottage and from mansion is tt&fted on the breeze the bitter cry: -Where » my boy to-night?" The an swer: "In dens of infamy, licensed by «• votes of Christian fathers I" O, fatal delusion! that for the sake of lk«« parity e&peuieucy, will make lawful tfce --ay that leads "Mother's boy' to death and eternal ruin. vffi- :• ? ^ ELECTRIC BITTERS. ft* This remedy Is becoming so well known i '• and so popular as to need no special mention.
