PROHIBITION.


Prohibition of the sale of Intoxicating L.
quors has had very thorough trial In the
State of Maine. Much testimony concerning
its working has been given. Some of it's
most enthusiastic advocates, like Neal Dow,
have claimed that it was great success,
and that even in the cities it was effective.
But during the last year or two the matter
has been investigated by careful and un-
prejudiced observers. and their testimony
has not been such as to greatly cheer the
friends of prohibition. Indeed, much Of 1t
has tended'to show that there is no real pro
hibition in Maine
Prohibition has also had fair trial In Yer
mont. Vermont had prohibitory liquor
law as long ago as 1852, and it has been
made more severe ever SINCE As it now
stands, it absolutely forbids the manufacture.
sale, furnishing or giving away of any in
toxicating liquor, malt liquors and lager beer
being expressly included. Cider must not
be sold at any public resort, and man is
liable to penalty If In his own house
he furnishes any liquor to minors.
A fine of ten dollars for the first
ofense, twenty for the second and three
months in the house of correction are the
penalties attached to all disobediences of the
law not otherwise provided for. A COMMON
seller may be prosecuted for maintaining
nuisance, his place of business may be sum
mar1ly closed, he may be fined one or two
hundred dollars or imprisoned in the house
of correction for four months, according to
the offenss. A sravsling iquor agent Ia liza

informer and the prosecuting officer. On q
mere suspicion police officers may enter
and search without q warrant any prsni-

has it been effective? Last year the federal
taxes on the manufacture and sale of intoxi-
eating liquors in Vermont amounted to $14-
600. Foar hundred and forty-six places
were found whore intoxicating liquors were
sold, an increase Of twenty since the pre-
vious year. Burlington had no less than
sixty rum shops and scarcely a town in the
State had not at least one Prosecutions are
frequent, but they are invariably for q first
ofense. The relatively small fine is paid and
the business goes along at the old stand as
before
And SO it goes. The truth is that q pre-
hibitory law cannot be enforced until public
sentiment is behind it. The sooner the xadi
cal prohibitionists recognize this the more
progress their cause will make. High license,
in our opinion, is the most effective method
of dealing with the rum traffic that has yet
been tried in this country. II is sensible and

have the habit of putting up milk for the
London market in great oaken cans. 1t is
claimed that such holders are much sweeter
than any made of Metsl. It is the custome in
KiImarnock, Scotland, for men to peddls milk

Many milk sellers go around the streets of

and dipping it out as customers want. 1t is
a curious fact that large number of cswsfo

RECENT PUBLICATIONS.

f'An Endless CHAIN" by ''Pansy," is pub
lishsd by D. Lothrop q Co., Boston. It fol-
lows in the Ester Risd series, some of the
characters being carried over into it from the
last volume, although in incident and story it
is complete in itself. 1t is the authors aim
to show what can be done in the way of Sum
day-school work by perseverance, kindness,
and sympathetic endesvor. 1t shows that
even those who seem the farthest removed
from good influences have yet some door
through which the heart can be successfully
reached. Pansy has peculiar skill in depict
ing such types as are common in all COM
munities, SO that none of them seem strange
or foreign. In that fact lies one of the
charms of her work. In DR.. Everett, the
leading character of the present work, we
have the model Sunday-school Superintsn-
dent, a man of practical Christianity. whose
religion is just the same Monday as it is Sun
day; quick to see and as quick to act; tender
and yet just, and full to overfowing of
that divinest of all gifts, charity. He works
no miracles; he accomplishes simply what
any warm-heartsd, energetic Christian can ac-
complish under like conditions. The other
characters are wildly drawn, and the
story, simply as a story, is one of the
authors brightest and best. For sale in this
