"See that old fellow over there?" pointing to a gray-haired, stal wart-looking man, "that's Colonel Blank, whose fortune runs In the seveu figures. He has a curious habit of carrying a memorandum book around with him and whenever he spends any money be Jots down the figures. One day I got talking to him about It and be pulled the book out of his pocket to show me. What was my amote ment on looking at It to discover thai not one of the pages was totaled up. I asked him, naturally, whether he never added the columns to find how much be was spending. He told me that he did not and never had; the practice was too discouraging. A sense of duty Impelled him to put down the Items, but there he stopped. An Inter esting man, althougb a trifle eccentric." She Baked a Million Pies.

For some time workmen have been engaged In excavating the up per square and causewaying it with whlnstone. In the course of the op erations they came across certain well-defined foundations, which so far as can be ascertained, were not known to the present generation. The re mains are directly In front of the por tion known as the Chapel Royal (which has long been UBed as an ar mory), and they take the form of two lines of stones, each line being about three feet In width. Nothing has been done to destroy the remains, the po sitions of which have been Indicated by the linear arrangement of the sets hii.. them. Several local archeolo- glBts express the opinion that the twj lines of stones lorm part ot tne foundations of the original Chapel Royal, supposed to btve been founded about 1107. V Long Way To "How far," asked one automoblllst of another as they met at a turn In the road, "Is It from here to the next town where there' a repair shop!"

In the temperance education cam paign now being vlRorously curried on In all parts of the country a special ized system is advisable. Dr. Wells Andrews, In Chicago Dally News, puts this suggestion Into words that are well worth passing on. Tell the lumber men of Michigan, he says, bow many thousands of drinking farmers will shingle their homes and barns or build new ones as soon as they "quit their meanness." Te'l tbe shoe manufacturer of Massachusetts what it means to take all the bare feet of drunkards' children off tbe ground. Tell the Iron men of Penn sylvania that new stoves will be need ed In 100,000 homes when tbe saloon keeper ceases to get the money, and tell the miners they will have work all winter through getting coal enough to put into those stoves. Tell the wool growers of Ohio that everybody In this country Is going to be wrapped In woolen and slet-p under blankets when the blizzards blow, and the men so longer heat up with "liquid fire" In or der to exterminate their families with atmospheric cold. Tell the cattle rais ers of the West and stockyards men in Chicago that there U going to be beef on thousands of tables, where now there are a few cold potatoes. Tell the grocer he can sell for cash and say gooU-by to bad debts when the dimes no longer go into the saloon till. Tell the farmers there Is going to be an unheard of demand for flour and meal, butter, cheese and eggs as soon a beer drinkers cease fostering that In dustry and begin filling out the hoi low cheeks ot wives and children. ALCOHOL, SHOT AND SHELL. The Reformer, a paper of Western Australia, writes of the effects of in toxicating drinks In the expeditionary force of that state as follows: A little time ago 20,000 troops were medically certified as sound in wind and limb. Then alcohol began to pat in Us fine work, and in a short time 2,000 of them, either for behavior or sickness, were dismissed. Their places were soon filled, but neither the citizens nor the soldiers had learn ed their lesson, and bo whisky or beer was still regarded as the bond of , good-fellowship, and the test of hospitality. Then came along pneu monia, that dread daughter of alco holism. It was pneumonia In tbe camp, pneumonia at Albany, pneu monia on the sea, and pneumonia be neath the shadow of the pyramids. Some tardily recovered, others were laid beneath the turf or the wave be fore ever they saw the flash of Turk ish sword or heard the burst of Ger man bomb. Alcoholism and pneumonia indeed can scarcely be separated, and the foremost physicians of England now are saying that they look upon the previous alcoholic condition ot a pa tient as- the arbiter ot his life when attacked by pneumonia. This first blood in our war was drawn, not by the bayonets of the enemy, but by the folly ot ourselves. The foolish hospitality ot the people and the drinking dens of the state joined bands in destroying our defenders. A NEW FAITH. Although Maj. Dan Morgan Smith of Chicago was never personally ad dicted to the use ot strong drluk, yet be was for several years the able gen eral counsel of the Model License league. He la now a zealous advocate of temperance, and thus writes: "Ar guments that once seemed so plaus ible have failed me; for the founda tion of my faith and the corner stone of my arguments was the failure of regulation and the success of prohibi tion. My faith Is gone and my corner stone Is displaced, my structure bas fallen, and It remains for me to help build another, founded on a new faith, with a corner stone as enduring aa the truth, and that faith shall be called Temperance, and the corner stone shall be Annihilation. I shall never make another speech In behalf of the Model License league. I am through with the wet side. My Intel ligence insists upon It; my conscience demands It." FOR THE SAKE OF OUR BOYS. A mother having expressed her re gret at the Iukewarmness ot a certain preacher on the prohibition question, received the reply, "But, my doar woman, It Is not necessary to urge It It Is right and Is sure to come. It may be twenty or, perhaps, ten years, but what matters a few years, more or less?" "What matters a few years?" replied the mother with deep feeling. "If your boy or my boy are to be among those who will be ruined In the saloons in these ten or twenty years, It would seem a mattter of Infinite Importance how soon the liquor traffic was exterminated." LIKE-MINDED. The Worth Brothers Steel Mills company, the Lukens Iron and Steel company ot Coatsvllle, Pa., and the Florence Iron company of Florence, N. J have prohibited tbe delivery ot beer, whisky or any other Intoxicat ing liquors to the homes of their em ployees, and all agents of breweries are prohibited from soliciting upon the premises.
