A Woman With a Mission,

She detained with fervid vigor on the
misery of the Digger, cut a most dra-
nlatie figure while lamenting his con-
dition,
And she said the bare Numidian and
the much-tanned Abyssinlan and the
Cannibai and the Guinean overlooked
her with contrition.
And her deep signs weighed the breezes
for those lands where bread nor cheese
is, the Turks and the Chineses, she
was filled with deep emotion;
And her ardent love was greater, all
more she strove to cater to those tribes
beyond the equator or across distant
ocean.
And, like Rachel, that sweet Jewess, she
wept tears as thick as glue is, at the
action of st. Louis and Chicago's
degradation;
And that these towns where such sin is,
such race for golden guineas, might
be made as good as Lynn is, was her
prayer and supplicatlon.
For the wild man of Alaska or of bar
barous Madagascar, she would say, if
you should ask her, that her love was
true and tender;
While her husband, luekless victim,
looked as if the fates had licked him,
and through back streets where they
kicked him, walked about with one
suspender.-Lyya Union.

Temperance.
Tobacco, Cholera and their Contagious
BY GEORGE NJ. POWELL.

The eminent DR.. John Liars says:
During the prevalence of cholera,
have had repeated opportunities OF
observing that individuals addicted
to the use of tobacco are more dis
posed to attacks of that disease, and
generally in its most malignant and
fatal FORM"
DR.. Willard Parker, long at the
head of the medical profession in
New York City, said: "All who
smoke or chew are more apt to die
in epidemics than other people"
DIR. 0. M. Stone of Boston said
"The idea that tobacco prevents di-
sease is an error. A tobacco users
chances of recovery from any malig-
nant disease are lessened fifty per
cent
Capt. G. B. Pettingill, who for
many years commanded vessels
trading between Boston and Cuba,
Mexico and South America, said:
Very few tobacco users recover
from yellow fever. l once lost half
my crew with it in Havana. Every
man who died used tobacco, and
every man who lived did not use
it."
DR.. Harris of the New York City
dispensary, where more diseases are
treated than in any other place in
America, says: at is scarcely pos
sible to cure a syphilitic sore, or
unite fractured bone in a devoted
smoker"
The London Lancet says: "No
smoker can be we'll man."

PuI.at,ops and power Of the Heart. :

The workings of the human heart
have been computed by celebrated
Psychologist, and he has demonstrated
that it is equal TO the lifting of 100 tons
in twenty-four hours. Presenting that
the blood is thrown out of the heart at
each puIsation in the proportion of six
ty-nine strokes per minute and at the
assumed force Of nine feet, the mileage
of the blood through the body might be
taken at 207 yards per minute, Z
miles per hour, los miles per day, 1920
miles per year, or 5,150,s $50 miles in a
lifetime of 81 years. In the same
period of time the heart must beat p
s6q. re. 900 times.

A famous duchess in London recently
went through the ordeal of having
dress made on her own figure. She
stood for three hours while the dress
makers wrought fifty yards of rare old
lace that could not be cut into gown
for a soiree, at the close of which every
stitch had to be carefully cut and picked
out before the lady could disrobe. The
amount of torture that fair woman will
undergo in the name of vanity would
astonish the martyrs. .

1t is said that one of the severest
liquor laws ever passed is that of
the Dramshop Act in Mississippi.
A liquor dealer can only do bust
ness in the front of his shop, and it
is counted a misdemeanor to put up
a screen. There are many and
heavy fines for any infringements of
the law.

in the suburbs of Havana. in a place
where he was repeatedly robbed Of his
food by crows. One day he laid still
on the ground, pretending to be dead.
The crows were allowed TO steal to
their hearts content until the artful
simian was sure they We're in reach.
Instantly he grabbed one by the leg,

orally plucked every feather from the
luclzless bird and then flung it towards

The New York court of appeals
has decided that in interpreting the
law whereby a saloon cannot exist
within 200 feet of a church, the
measurement shall be made between
the principal entrance of the church
and the place in the saloon where
liquors are actually sold. Edward
n. Fitzsimmons, of l141 Second av-
enue in New York, is therefore very
glad indeed, because the entrance to
his saloon is within the 200 feet
limit. The decision shows how in
finitely silly the law can be, and
also how sure it is to be interpreted
in favor of the rumseller. 1t is a
scandal to have such a decision go
on record.-[Springfeld Republican.

Have You a Boy to Spare1

The saloon must have boys, or it
must shut up its shop. Can't you
find one? 1t is a great factory, and
unless it can have 100000 from
each generation for raw material,
some of these factories must close up
and the operatives be thrown upon
a cold world, and the public revenue
dwindle. Wanted 100000 boys is
the notice. One family out of every
five must contribute a boy in order
to keep up the supply. viii you
help? Which of your boys shall it
be?
