The Hotel Register Must Go.

The register at some Of the fashionable
hotels will soon be among the unused If
not among the forgotten things. There
is.a movement on foot to abolish il en-
tirely, and sooner or later, like a good
many other things, it will have to 90.
People are buster now than they used to
be, or else they are lazier. Formerly hotel
guests registered their names and the
places from which they came with a GOOD
deal of accuracy and attention. Now
most Of the public men and generally all
lady travellers decline to allow their names
TO appear on the book at all. They simply
give their names and places Of residence
TO the clerk, who notes the same and
sticks the little card containing the in
formation in the Office rack. The real
OBJECT OF the register was to accommodate
the outsider any way, and even in this
respect has fallen into disuse. The
stranger comes in looking for a friend
and consults the book. and nine times
out OF ten if he does not find the name on
the register he turns and asks the clerk If
the person he seeks is stopping in the
house. This is fast age, and the regis
ter seems to be in the way now on The
motel desk.-New York Graphic.

What the Vote Means.


Republican success in PENNSYLVANIA
means the submission of a Prohibition
amendment to vote of the people :
in New Jersey it means the mainten-
ance of the Local Option law in New
York it means the passage Of a liuuOr
restriction act that will reduce Iiquor
saloons, liquor drinking and the of
lenses that result from excess, as it has
done in Pennsylvania. Democratic
success means the reverse Of ali this
more saloons where saloons are now
limited, no diminutiOn where they are
now restricted
As the campaign has proceeded il
became more and more apparent that
the advocates of Protection would not
permit any side issues to draw them
away from the one great question at
stake. 1t has been felt that while
American industries were in danger
other questions must await a settle
ment.
A second reason for the diminished
interest in Third-party Prohibitionism
IS the tact that the course of the Repub-
lican party on the liquor question has
satisfied all sincere temperance people.
The discussions of the campaign
brought out this fact clearly and con
vincingly. 1t has been proved that
practically all that has been done to
lessen the evils of intemperance and to
restrict the liquor traffic has been
through the efforts of the Republican
party. The high license laws passed in
Massachusetts,, New Jersey, Pennsyl-
yania, Ohio, Illinois, Nebraska, Iowa.
Michigan and Minnesota and the bills
vetoed by Governor Hill in New York
all demonstrate this claim.

We generally find that when sunstrolra

No, it is Il Vinegar Bitters lecture. I've
taken the medicine more or less for fifteen
years, and look the world over, you will
not find healthier man than l am.
What Is all this nonsense about old stvle
and new style Vinegar Bitters; are they
different?"
. Yes, the old Style looks like coffee with
milk in, the new style like coffee without
milk. The man who made the old style for
twenty years-a practical chemist-made
milder, pleasaEter preparation, adding to it
here and taking from itthere, until he pro-
duced, my wife says, the finest medicine
ever made. 1t cured her Of constipation.

And to and fro the seaweed bends to me,
kissing the great red rocks along the shore.
But thou, beloved, are not here to see.
The sun goes down in glory in the west,
Bathing In crimson every flower and tree,
The white sails redden on the ocean breast,
But thou, beloved, are not here to see.

God keep thy path as bright from earth to sky.
When I, beloved, am not here to see.
