Anti-Saloon League of the State.
lie is a forceful speaker," and
gave his audiences seme fact3
concerning the progress of the
work of the league that was not
generally known. In opposition
to the thoroughly organized for
ces of the liquor interests, the
league now has on its side ninety-eight
per cent, of the railroads
of the country, seventy-five per
cent, of the manufacturing con
cerns,, and practically ninety-five
per cent, of the traveling sales
men of the country. Recently the
leaders of labor organizations in
vestigated the cause of distur
bances that occur during strikes,
and they found that in every in
stance, the man or men who
started the troubles were under
the irlluence of liquor. This has
led organized labor to take steps
to effectively abolish the liquor
business. P.ev. Stone insists that
the time will be short until Penn
sylvania will join the "dry"
states.

Nothing adds more to the refinements of home than
good music. To have good music you must have a good
instrument. There are good bad and indifferent instru
ments, and to the unskilled eye they look much alike.
The unprincipled dealer is likely to make you pay a
first-class price-for a fourth-class instrument. I have
lived in this county since my birth, I am a taxpayer and
in a position to make good any business transactions.
Buy your piano, organ, or victrola Irom me and if it is
not all right you can come back at me.
There are families in every part of this county that
have purchased instruments from me.- Ask them about
me.
Perhaps you want to trade your organ for a Piano,
or Player Piano; or your Plain Piano, for a Player. See
me. Let's talk it over.
