: < • > ' . ? * O, •1RTMKHT _ NoMw# under the above head , l»v th« Ladies of the W.O T. U • claims no part or credit for the T*» Night Ufa of Tonne Hen. f One night often destroys ft whole life. The leakage of the night keeps the day • forever empty. Night is sin's harvest ;^ime. More sin and crime are committed |n one night than n all the days of the week. This is more emphatically true of the city than of the country. The street ; lamps, like a file of soldiers, with torch in liand, stretch away in long lines on either ^idewalk; the gay colored transparencies ^jfcre ablaze with attractions; the saloons And billiard halls aTe brilliantly illumi- •Sated; music sends forth its enchant­ ment; the gay company begins to gather to the haunts and houses of pleasure; ihe theatres are wide open, the mills of destruction are grinding health, honor, Jtappiness, hope, out of a thousand lives. The city under the gaslight is not the Dame as .under God's sunlight. The allurements and perils and pitfalls of Y*\\; sight are a hundred-fold deeper and , darker and more destructive. Night life In our cities is a dark problem, whose depths and abysses and whirlpools make f * us start back with horror. . * 1 * Young men, tell me how and where yon •pend your evenings and I w|ll write out . tj chart of your character and final des- with blanks to insert names. It *- SBems to Hit au appropriate text would " :1, be: "Watchman, what of the night?" What are the young men Of the city do­ ing at nigjjt ? Where do they spend "^ their evenings? Who are their asso- deftes ? What are their habits ? Where do they ga in and what time do they «ome out ? Policeman, would the night f / Ufe of young men commend them to the Confidence of their employers? Would it be to their credit? Make a record of the nights of one treek. Pat in the morning papers, the ^ iliames of all the young men, their habits jf; i»nd haunts, that are on the street for ' «inful pleasure. Would there not be iihame and confusion ? Some would not dare go to their places of business; some Would not want to look their mothers in face again. - - We beg of the young men to be care­ ful and never spend the night in such a toanner, that the bare thought of going lome, will fill your heart with pain and Sorrow, and your whole life with repen­ tance for what you have done. - ' 9-v ACME BLACKING is cheaper at 20 cents a bottle than any other Dressing at 5 cents. !A LITTLE GOES A LONG WAYS because shoes once blackened with it tan be kept dean bv washing them with water.
