jokes, and all nad the redeeming quali
ty of being new quite a refreshing oc
currence In these days, when faroe
companies all use gags of 1888 vintage.
Mr. Kernell was aurronuded by a

was assuming a very difficult role and
marred his work by resorting to
methods not at all in keeping with tne

perhaps hard to estimate, but we now
know tbat such efforts are futile against
inveterate habit, a habit which has become
a disease. There was a time when it
wculd have been easy to quit, but having
neglected to do so the babit continued un
til oy the constant or fnquenr. use of tbe
poison there was forced a change in tho
nervous system which made it not only
possible to drink, bnt necessary. Then
you could drink a good deal and not seem
to get drunk, but you also found it neces
sary, to keep you feeling good and you
''craved liou.ir" because vmi hail heenmu

good and the pledge oau't be kept, go and
make your resolution good for all time by
