Where shall Il Bar Room BE Kept.

Trial Justice Croft is now considering a
test case brought against Alberry Turner
who is charged with violating the State
liquor laws by selling liquor in q place OBJ
structed from the public view. The liquor
was sold In the bar in the cellar under
Mark 81 Endel's, on Nam street. There
arc no screens or other distractions TO q
view of the inside, but the doors and
windows arc below the level Of the Side
walk and partly under the entrance to
Mark e Endcl's, so that it is impossible for
persons walking on the street to see inside.
A bar room has been kept there twelve
years without objection and the case is q
new and interesting one, involving the
question whether or not II man selling
liquor must find an apartment into which
everybody can see, or whether The rcmova!
of screens and blinds and other artificial oh
structions to the view is n sufficient com
pliancc with the law. Justice Croft has
not yet indicated what his decision will be,
but the matter will probably 20 into the
upper courts anyhow, GrcomrtWe Nc@$.

The You Men of the South.

The idea prevails largely in our cur.
rent literature that the young men OF
the "new south" are full of force and
energy, eager to grapple the difficulties
of their situation, and quite prepared to
wiring success from unwilling fortune.
The picture is not wholly one of fancy.
There are such young men among us.
and they are illustrating what may be
done in the new order of things amid
which they are thrown. But they are
not very numerous-are, in fact, pain
fully exceptional The great bulk OF
our young men are of the opposite
type. They go about business, if they
60 at it at all, in half-hearted way, as
Il they regarded failure as foregone
conclusion, A great many do not en-
gage in any steady vocation, but accent
any little job by which they can earn
few dollars. Perhaps there never
were 80 many men who can not be said
to be pursuing any regular calling. An
ambition to get behind counter or to
secure travelling agency for some busl-
ness house is that which generally takes
possession of the minds of our young
men. There is turning away from
agriculture as If it were not calling
which promises to patience energy, and
industry the very best rewards. We
must own it that the bold, ambitious
young man, who is willing to forego
present ease and display, and who will
not be content with any expedient that
may meet the present emergency, is an
exception among us. There is as good
a chance to lay the foundations of q
fortune now as there ever was, If young
men will only exercise the proper in.
dustry and economy.-Atlanta Sunny

What Doctors Earn.

The list of the incomes received by
the leading doctors in the city IS sug-
gestive as well as q somewhat melan-
choly document, says the Toronto Globe.
1t is an official publication issued under
oath and sworn to by the assessors as
being as nearly correct as they, with all
their care and honesty, could make it.
The incomes mentioned include all that
was received for professional services.
as well as all of every other kind which
had not in some other way paid the city
taxes in full The prizes of the medi-
cal profession are evidently, if one may
Judge from this personal exhibit, mar
velOusly few. The work is laborious,
anxious. and exhaustive, as the pre-
liminary education is expensive and
prOtracted. Surely the workman in
such circumstances is worthy of his re-
ward. Yet there is only one medical
man in the whole of this city who last
year earned $1,000 from his profession,
combined with the interest he received
on his previous savings There is not
one man on the list who had $4,000,
and only four who touched $1,000.
When we come to the comparatively
modest and moderate $1,000, we nat
urally conclude we shall have full
legion. But no, we have only fourteen,
all told, who come up to this figure.
When we come to the ruck between
$1,000 and 81, 900, the number becomes
cheerfully and encouragingly large.
As many as fifty-one of the best-known
and greatly sought after doctors of our
city are put down under their own
hands and seals as having last year
lived and fourished on from 81, 900 to
81, 800. Some of these are professors,
with all the responsibilities and salaries
attached to such offices, as well as to
fully developed carriages and liveried
There remain only the un.
fortunates who worry along with from
$500 down almost to zero. OF these we
are sorry to say, there were last year
thirty-six, and it is to be hoped that
from the increased attention given to
general sanitation, the number of those
thus situated will this year not be
smaller, but rather the reverse. In
sober sadness, all this won't do. II
makes the whole system of income as
sessments a huge farce and huge
fraud as well.

Food Temperature.

The following are the practical con.
illusions arrived at by DIR. Franz Spaeth
A temperature of l04-l22 degrees Fab
renheit generally is the best for all
foods and drinks, and when solid food
is to be masticatcd it should not exceed
95 degrees. Fluids may be borne al
140-149 degrees in small swallows, il
cold solids are eaten with them. The
warming of the body, for which pur
pose hot drinks are sometimes taken,
can be attained ut temperatures which
exceed the blood heat (99.5 degrees
FahrenhciD by 1924 degrees Fahren'
heit, and the danger and pain of high.
or temperatures are needless. People
who suffer from stomach troubles, es'
pecially liberation. should carefully
avoid high temperatures. Children es'
pecially should be guarded against this
dangerous habit. For nursing infants
nature has clearly indicated the proper
temperature. Mothers milk is at 1901
degrees Fahrenheit; therefore. all artiti
cial food should be at this point These
experiments and the practical point'
deducted from them are of the creates
