SIMPLE LIFE MISSIONARY 41- rY XAX i j ' "i t " DRINK STATISTICS. Figures showing an Increase since 1904 of three gallons per capita in the nation's consumption of alcoholic drinks need a footnote. While the average consumption for 1913 was 22.68. the average in 1907 and again in 1911 was 22.79. This gives the Prohibitionists a fair argu ment for the success of their labors in at least preventing an Increase. What Is more, the actual consumers of alcohol are estimated to be about 25.5 per cent of the total population, with an average of 89 gallons each. Of this 25.5 per cent It would be inter esting to know what proportion do the heavy drinking. If bard drinkers drink more but grow fewer, while the number of those who drink little or nothing keeps fair ly steady, totals and averages need not cause much worry to temperance workers. New York World. A SOBER NAVY. "No drinking In the navy" is an or der everywhere respected, says Miss Ellen Stone, formerly of European Turkey, whose capture and ransom at great cost some years ago is still vividly remembered. "The naval of ficer is a splendid type of manhood," she continues; "To him an order is an order. Americans now need never fear to see on shore a jackle or ma rine from an American battleship in an intoxicated condition, which brings disgrace to the country whose uniform he wears. W'ith shame and sorrow I have seen men from the bat tleships of other nations, in the streets of Saloniki, Jeered at by TurkB, Jews and others of that an cient city. Wondt-r of wonders that the ocean should go 'dry!'" THROWN OUT OF WORK. An anti-liquor man asked his neigh bor the other day what he thought about prohibition for the state. "I don't believe in it," replied the neigh bor, "so many people would be thrown out of work." "But," said his friend, "Just count the people you know who are out of work because of the drink." "Well, I guess you've got it right; I hadn't thought of it in that way," was the answer. , EVEN THE PUGILISTS. Joe Shugrue, the popular Jersey City pugilist, is a total abstainer. The sportin? editor of the Chicago Tribune says of him: "To fce banqueted and lauded by high city officials has not fallen to the lot of any New York boxer, but Joe holds this distinction. . . . Shugrue Is not only a teeto taler but frowns upon the use of liquor by the young men who are proud of his acquaintance." BETTERMENT OF HUMANITY. "Every movement for the better ment of humanity," saya Mr. John Cunneen, the labor leader, "has been fought by people who said it would throw somebody out of work. It was so when oil came to displace candles, gas to supplant candles, and electricity In place of gas. For every man out of work by voting the saloons out, the faloons, if they stay, will pnt ten out of work." 4 ; i?
