Liquor Dealers Seeking to Make Joke
of Constitution.
“The liquor question has ceased to
be a question of personal desire and
has become a question of obedience to
law. If the future policy of liquor in-
lification of the Constitution through
a change in the definition of alcoholic
liquors from one per cent. to as high
as they can get itis sure, then the
Constitution of the United States be-
comes a joke.” So said Col. Dan Mor-
gan Smith, who led the famous “Bat-
falion of Death” in France, in an in-
terview recently with a representative
of the Troy, N. Y. Record.
Colonel Smith expressed himself in
part as follows: “Prohibition must be
| enforced—and not because it is prohi-
| bition, but because it is law. As this
' government years ago set an example
! in abolishing slavery, so now should it
i set an example regarding prohibition,
| that the world may be free from the
| beverage use of a habit forming drug
that has debauched mankind wherever
| it has been introduced.
| «I place the purchaser of the liquor
| in the same category as the man who
i illegally sells it to him, a violator of
{ the law of the country, and fit inhab-
| itant of a jail or penitentiary.
{ “Alcoholism is no less a menace to
| the home, to good government, to law
and order and to the permanency of
American ideals, than was militarism.
«Soldiers fought, bled and died on
the battlefields to uphold the Consti-
tution which guarantees liberty and
freedom from oppression, and liquor
dealers are seeking to make a joke of
this sacred Constitution.”
Clear Up!
Now let us give politics a rest, and
rout and siege and sally, and gayly
shed our coat and vest, and go and
clean the alley. Let’s gather up the
dogs and cats which have this life de-
parted, and let the cans and bricks
and hats off to the dump be carted. In
winter you may voice your views,
which you believe important, and
base long sermons on the news, but in
the spring you ortn’t. Then every
able bodied man should whoop the
“CLEAN UP” slogan, and chase the
old tomato can, the cast-off hat and
brogan. So let us clear our bulging
brows of trifling thoughts and narrow,
and gather up the old dead cows and
work the rake and harrow. The rub-
ish left by careless men, and lazy hu-
man cheeses, will bring a host of
germs again, and they’ll bring punk
diseases. And forty billion flies will
come, as many microbes bearing, and
round our weary heads they’ll hum,
and keep us busy swearing. Clean up,
clean up. On every block let all the
workers rally. No man should stand
around and talk until he’s cleaned his
alley!

ER -—
Clean Up Campaign.
As announced in last week’s papers,
this is Fly Week, the opening week in
the clean-up campaign. This clean-up
should include:
Removal of all rubbish, filth and
trash from every household, school
store, institution and vacant lot.
Stables and pig pens should be
cleaned and sprinkled with borax or
kerosene.
Cesspools should be cleaned, limed
and screened.
Streets and gutters should be clean-
ed. Mosquito breeding places should
be eliminated and oiled.
Clean out rats and their breeding
places. Arrange for the summer care
of garbage: and plan for garbage
dumps. Provide for protecting fruits
and vegetables from flies.
The success of a fly campaign de-
pends upon the destruction of breeding
places. Flies breed in filth, therefore,
filth should be removed. Ninety per
cent. of house flies are bred in the ma-
nure of horse stables and hog pens.
Manure should be removed twice a
week during the fly season. Privies
to which flies have access afford the
double danger of offering a breeding
place and focus for the spread of dis-
ease.
Rules and Regulations of Depart-
ment of Health applicable to fly erad-
ication and protection against fly
dangers:
No firm, person, or corporation shall
expose for sale on any sidewalk or
pavement or other exposed place any

are on elevated stands at least twen-
ty-four inches above the level of the
sidewalk or pavement.

cle for human excrement shall be con-
structed, maintained or used so that

other receptacles for human excre-
ment shall be cleaned at sufficiently
frequent intervals to prevent the con-
tents from overflowing.

crement shall be effected in water-

es. Containers shall be thoroughly
cleansed after each use.
No human excrement or material
containing human excrement shall be

buried or otherwise disposed of where
it is likely to gain access to any wa-
ters of the State, unless subjected to

Plenty of Proof
Know—From
People You
Bellefonte Citizens.
The greatest skeptic can hardly fail
to be convinced by evidence like this.
It is impossible to produce better
proof of merit than the testimony of
residents of Bellefonte, of people who
can be seen at any time. Read the
following case of it.
E. J. BEckenroth, painter, Main St.,
says: “As every one knows, men
who follow the painting business are
troubled more or less with their kid-
neys. Ihave used Doan’s Kidney Pills
whenever bothered by my kidneys and
they have always given good results.
My advice to any one having kidney
complaint is to take Doan’s Kidney
Pills.”
