TOFFELJ AT THE EAST SIDE What Has Been Accomplished. There be those who say that the teifl- oerance cause has accomplished nothing. Every intelligent friend of the cause knows that it has done wonders. An oc togenarian writes me as follows: "Fifty years ago 1 made my first move in be half of temperance. I expected then thatf by this time the Work will be nearly com pleted. But I can still say with a good deal of faith: 'Be not fainthearted!' In very many respects a wonderful change has been effected, it auiazes me to think where we should have been to-day with out the temperance movement. The results have been worth a thousand times more than they have cost. The drinking is now done in groggeries, and the time will come, I doubt not, when they will be suppressed." A.
