less tbnn it was in ISOO. There has also
been a considerable falling off in many
of the north cential states and teni

the CJothenbnrg or state

studied iMiefully by marry friends ot
temperance and new information bearing-
upon it is theiefoie always suie of
attention.
The Chicago Itecoid-Heralel, whose
correspondent, William K. Curtis, re
cently made a tour of Sweden, studying
this &stom among other things, and
came away convinced as a result of
his observations and Inquiries tlml it is
tile most s.itisfactoiy and practical
system in existence tor legulating- tiro
liquor business, as a proof that the
s.v stem evidently suits the Swedes,
notes tlie fact that leeently its scope
has been extended. roimoily only
highly alcoholic drinks weie put undet
the monopoly of the licensed company
which, lu flothenbmg, under municipal
lc-sti Ictions, runs all the saloons and

and light wines have been added, with
almost unanimous public approval.

Sweden does not imply that It would
suit everybody. As a. matter ot tact
It does not. It Is bitterly opposed by
