One Good Turn Deserves Another.
"The late curl of Cork was n' very
pious person, nnd extremely solicitous
as to the future salvation of his fellow
men. One day, finding himself In a
crowded railway cnrrlage, he deliv
ered a homily ns earnest as It wns tin
desired, exhorting everyone Immedl
ntely to set about Insuring his hnppl
ness In a future life. Presently one of
the passengers, who had been listening
very attentively to ull that Cork said,
arrived nt his stntlon," says Lord Suf
flotfl in his memoirs. "When he had
got out on the platform he turned
round and, leaning through the car
riage door, said:
" 'Thank you, sir. One good turn
deserves another. You've put me up
a wrinkle In your profession ; now let
me give you one In return. I'm a hat
ter. Put a piece of blotting paper In
side the lining of your lint, nnd it will
last twice ns long. Good-day.' "

Church Is Home for Cats.
The sacristy In the church of Ran
Lorenzo In Florence, built by Michael
Angelo in 1523 ns a mausoleum for
the Medici family, adjoins a cloister
that Is almost entirely devoted to cats.
It contains square light arches leap
ing from column to column, with tho
customary campanile towering fnr
above it Inhabited by pure white
doves. Between the columns of the
cloister is a rfernpet nnd beyond It
a moat four to five feet In depth. And,
this moat, bncked by all tho columns
and the parapet surrounds a kind of
Island terrace, quite out of reach of
everybody. That Island Is tho king
dom of cats, as many ns choose to
colonize there and ns is usually the
case with cuts, their name Is legion.
They nre fed regulnrly through the
charity of someone who long ago left
a legacy for their maintenance.

WILL PROHIBIT HOT BREAD. (
In tho course of the debate on th
bone-dry bill In the Georgia senate
State Senator Pickett asked this ques
tion: "Will you say to the people
next that they won't be allowed to
make hot bread because it hurt their
dlgestionr The Atlnnta Constitution
niude reply in words which constitute
a comprehensive Indictment of the liq
uor traffic. "Ves, Senator Pickett," It
said, "when tho use of hot bread be
comes so general and so abnormal as
to constitute a mania; when craving
for it becomes so great that men neg
lect their firesides and starve their
wives and children In order to satisfy
their appetites for it; when it is prov
ed that men fill up on hot bread and
go home and beat their wives and chil
dren in hot-breud frenzy; when ruffi
ans nervn themselves with hot bread
and under Its Influence kill our citi
zens and desecrate our homes; when
hot bread violates the sanctity of our
firesides nnd debuses and debauches
our young sons nnd pure-minded
daughters; when it leagues Itself with
and Inspires the lowest and vilest sorts
of vice; when it befuddles the bruins
of our boys so that undet its spells
they sign checks and forge names and
go to the penitentiary; when craving
for it becomes so Irresistible that
workmen on Saturday nights cannot
pass a bakery on the roud home, but
go in and squander the week's earn
ings In hot bread, when it should have
been spent In coal, food for the fam
ily, shoes, life insurance; when so
ciety is taxed to provide policemen
to guard men and women under the
Influence of hot bread; when the city
nnd stute are burdened to support
courts to deul with crime committed
ns a direct result of over-indulgence
In hot bread; when our penitentiaries
and almhouses and Insane asylums be
come filled with criminals and human
derelicts and maniacs human beings,
once with souls, wrecked upon tho
rocks of hot bread; when mother's
hairs nre whitened by work through
sleepless nights that fathers and sons
spend carousing In hot bread dives;
when men can no longer find employ
ment on a railroad or in an Industrial
pursuit If ho uses hot bread; when
engineers under the Influence of hot
bread fall to see the signal lights and
wreck their trains nnd slaughter inno
cent people; when chauffeurs fill up
on hot bread and drive their cars
like madmen over our highways and
streets, running down oar women and
children, the aged and tho cripples,
nnd killing them ; when the use of hot
bread shall reach such a pass that it
threatens tho very safety and sanity
nnd life of the state then, the pa
triotic, decency-loving people will de
mand that hot bread be prohibited.

lation was under prohibition, tho In

than SO per cent of tho population was
under prohibition, the Increaso was 75

WHICH IS BETTER FRIEND TO LA
BOR, LICENSE OR PROHIBITION?
ALCOHOL IS ALCOHOL.
The alcohol of beer nnd tho alco
hol of whisky are Identical. Whisky
drinking Is dangerous because of tho
alcohol poison which the whisky con
tains. Beer drinking Is dnngerous for
the same reason. Medical men are,
however, pretty well ngreed that, on
the whole, opart from tho alcoholic
poisoning, beer drinking Is more mis
chievous than whisky drinking.
DOOMED TO DESTRUCTION.
There Is no agency on earth or In
hell strong enough to deliver tho liquor
Institution from Its Just doom. Tho only
power that could strike tho fast de
scending sword of retribution from tho
avenging hand of this republic Is tlw
power of Almighty God. That power
Is on tho other side! Daniel A. Poling.
POORER ALL AROUND.
"It isn't tho saloon that makes a
man miserable It's his poverty," the
exponent of the snloon Is telling the
worklngtnnn. This Is often true. But
you never henrd of a snloon that re
lieved a worklngtnnn of his poverty.'
Every time he comes out of a saloon
he Is poorer than when he went in.
A LIQUOR FABRICATION.
Llquorites have been nssertlng that
Denver musicians are walking tho
streets seeking employment. The La
bor Bulletin of that cltv Is authority
for the statement that the musicians
have secured a wago Increase of $o
per week.
AS A FATHER ALSO.
"The farmer must restore our eco
nomic bulunce." Yes but not the
farmer ns the producer of bread, mere
ly, but the farmer as the father of
boys.
A CANCER IN SOCIETY.
Tho liquor traffic Is a cancer In so
ciety, eating out Its vitals and threat
ening destruction, nnd all attempts to
regulate it will aggravate tho evil.
There must be no attempt to regulate
the cancer; It must bo eradicated, not
n root must be left behind, for until
this Is done all classes must continue
In danger of bocomlng victims of strong
drink. Abraham Lincoln, January 23,
