JudE~'s Csussic Comment In sente ncing
Petty Gambler.
New York, March 23.-Threc petty
eamblinu cases were tried before Judge
Cowing and jury in the court OF gen
cral sessions. Two Of the defendants
were acquitted aud the third. an Italian
who ran penny gambling machine in
Harlem, was found guilty. Judge Cow
ing fined him $25 and said:
ut seems to be the opinion OF Jurors
that they should not convict in these
cases as it appears to them. and very
iustly. that it is only the small fry that
are arrested and brought into court Tor
trial.
"In every gambling case and also IN
every liquor tax case brought into this
court it is always some poor foreigner
renerolly a woman with five or six chill
dren. or poor man who is eking out a
hare living for large family and who
has nothing behind him.
"Why don't you. nodding at the lo-
liceman. '.go after the big fellows. who
some Of tho jurors apparently believe
arc making thousands Of dollars-yes'
millions OF dollars, out Of this vicc?"

BUSINESS FAILURE
is Frequently Caused BY the Worry
Attendant On Dyspepsia.

If you would win in the Battle OF Life
you must have clear brain, keen
senses, perfect vigor, shrewdness, en-
ergy and ambition.
Dyspepsia kills these needful quail.
ties. You can't succeed if you are con.
stantly tortured by dyspepsia or indi-
gestion. But you can get rid of dys-
pepsia, indigestion, biliousness, sour
stomach, or any other aili:ient OF stom-
ach or digestive organs by simply
taking one or two of Dodd's Dyspepsia
Tablets after each meal.
With a perfect digestion go strong,
healthy body, a clear, capable brain,
vigor, ambition, determination, ener-
gy, activity, keen. alert senses. Dodd' s
Dyspepsia Tablets ensure all these.
DOdd's Dyspepsia Tablets have new

eases named when they have been

not feel that the risk is so great as TO
Justify placing him under bonds of re-
straint before he has done harm. This
class is DESTROYS of seeing the traffic
placed under such regulations as will
prevent selling to any who would do
harm TO themselves or others, but as
for themselves they consider that they
ought not to be held accountable for
the excesses of others. We are not
undertaking to defend the moderate
drinkers in this view, please under
stand, but are simply setting forth
their position as they see it, for the
purposes of this article.
AS 10 the third class who would buy
liquor-the hard drinkers word will
suffice. They ought not to have it.
Nearly or quite all laws forbid its sale
to them. But, as we have said, under
all laws this is the class that somehow
or other gets it and makes the trouble.
II is to prevent them from securing il
that all laws are devised and ttat law
is most successful which nearest ac-
complishes it. What the world desires
is less drunkenness, logical precursor
to which is less drinking.
How to 50 arrange as to stop the sale
of intoxicants to those who drink TO
excess how at the same time to pro-
vide for the necessary and legitimate
uses of liquor how also to satisfy that
great class of moderate drinkers who
could not well be spared from any COM
munity and how still further to safe
guard the immense, and. glory be, the
growing number who don't drink at
all and have little regard or sympathy
for those who do will continue TO be a
four-sidcd theme upon which the com
ing generation will continue to moral
ize and legislate, as many others have
done before it.

Vermont's gain OF over 1000 in
population during the past decade may
seem small to residents of many states,
single cities Of which have shown a
much greater increase, but it is very
satisfactory to Vermont, under the
circumstances and conditions that
exist. From 1870 TO 1890, the state
made almost no gain whatever. It
was during this time that other states
were growing very rapidly, the result
being that Vermont fell tar down In
the column. Thousands of her young
men went out to other fields, notably
the West. There was a steady de-
population of the farming sections
going on and this was scarcely more
than made good by the increase in a
few of the larger towns, During the
past ten years, all this has been
changed. Though the actual increase
is doubtless wholly due to the growth
of centres like Barre, Montpelier,
Burlington and Rutland, tits apparent
that there was little, if any, decrease
| in the rural communities. In few
states. We imagine, viii it be found
that the strictly farming sections have
held their own better than have
Vermonts. The tide has reached its
flood and may have even turned. II
the farms in Vermont can hold their
population during the next ten years,
the towns can be depended on TO max,
a handsome gain for the state as 4
I whole.
