Cardinal Gibbons an Advocate Of High
License.

BALTIMORE, May Cardinal Gibbons
! is an earnest advocate of high license.
He said yesterday: II AN decidedly op-
posed to prohibition as means of pre-
venting intemperance, because it does not
prohibit. Experience has shown in those
States where prohibition has been tried
that it is not an effective means Of pre-
venting the vice of drinking. There are
many ways of evading the laws, and often
the law officers connivc at the evasions.
Prohibition is to be discouraged also be-
cause it confounds the drunkard with
those who use liquor in moderation, maxi
ing out sin where there is no sin. The
only places where prohibition might be
enforced are thickIy settled country dis
tricts. am very strongly in favor ef
high license as a means of checking in
temperance. regard high license with
moral sanction as the most efficient way
of diminishing the drinking vice. | am
in favor OF severe police Sunday law
prohibiting the sale of liquors OH Sun
days, and wonld have that law rigidly
enforced. Drunkenness, whilst always
sinful, is au aggravated crime when com
mitted on Sunday. 1t is scandal0us and
leads to the violation of other laws.
More crime can be traced to intemperance
than to any other source"

Was there ever such a history as tia
of the cotton seed says the Banke,'s
Monthly. For seventy years despised as Il
nuisance, and burned and dumped as gar
bage, then discovered to DC the very food
for which the soil was hungering, and re-
luctautly admitted to the rank of utilities,
shortly afterward found to be nutritious
food for beasts, and thereupon treated
with something like respect. Once ad-
milted to the circle Of farm Industries it
was found to hold So gallons Of pure oil
to the ton, or $40,0O000 for the whole
crop of seed. But then system was de-
vised for refining the oil up to valne Of
81 per gallon, and the frugal Italian
placed cask of it at the root OF every
olive tree, and then defed the borean
breash of tho Alps. And then experience
showed showed that the ton of cotton
seed was a better fertilizer and better
food when robbed of its So gallons Of oil
than before, that the hulls of the seed
made the best of fuel for feeding the oil
mill engine, that the ashes of the hnils
scooped from the engines draft had the
highest commercial value as potash, and
that the refuse of the whole made the
best and pnrest soap stock, to carry to
the toilet the perfumes of Colgate .or
Lubin.

Poor ~ulustrations-

Idon't claim for myself any ability as
an artist, but I am familiar with history,
and with the characters so prominent
and picturesque during the chivalrous or
knightly age of French and English
history; and 1 chargesit is a foul imposi-
ton on the rising generation for a school
board to accept an edition Of history or
other book of instruction In which the
illustrations are not as authentic and as
s~crupulously correct rs the writings
themselves. 1 have seen q school history
with a picture representing Sir Walter
Raleigh-"a paragon of proudest mem
attending court attired in a costume be-
longing to a period 900 years before his
time. I refer to this by way of illustrat-
ing my meaning; but this grotesqueness
is not confined to history. 1t Is to be
found in every school book, from the
primer up, and 1 know that the evil thus
founded in beginning an education can
never be obliterated by after learning

Undoubtedly q great many people over
work, but there are a great many sins laid on
the shoulders OF work which ought to be
bound on the back of friction. Friction kills
ten men where overwork kills one; friction
destroys FRESHNESS, wastes energy, spends
courage and induces failure. Except In cases
where personal adjustments are absolutely
necessary, friction is pure waste, serves no
purposes, accomplishes no result and is 50
much capital of health, strength, high spirit
and good working power thrown away. II
is safo to say that nc great power ever sue
ceeded In which friction was not reduced to
the minimum, because friction involves nee

friction is a permanent element is a carica-
