"The Commercial Club"

In the manufacture of his latest
brand, "The Commercial Club" Mr.
Schulmeister has made radical
change from other live cent cigars in
asmuch as the tobacco which is used
in the manufacture of the new brand
is worked damp and shaped by hand
and allowed to dry in the cigar, thus
imparting to the cigar those essential
qualities sought after by all smokers;
firmness and free smoking.

As the family Of b s Knight Of
East Erie street are to leave for
Fairfield, Neb., within few days
Mrs Knight gave a little farewell
function to q number OF her lady
friends yesterday afternoon in the
form of u Kensington tea, which
proved a source of much pleasure
to the fortunate guests.
The color scheme was pink and
white. The ladies toyed with
pretty pieces of embroidery, lace
and other delicate pieces of fancy
work, while their tongues made a
merry chatter over the hundred
and one topics dear to the fem
mime heart.
Sumptuous refreshments were
served by Miss Norma Knight,
who was gowned in pink with
white flowers, and Miss Eleanor
Crowder who wore white dress
and pink flowers.
The guests we're, Mesdames
Lyon, Green, Shinkle, Hopkins,
Bail, Barrett, Album, Kendall,
|O'Conner and Schulmeister.
The hostess favored the COM
pany with several selections of
music, both vocal and instrument
al, which were an additional
pleasure to the afternoon which
lad proved SO pleasant to all.
Mrs. Knights friends are very
sorry that Mr. knights business
calls them away from town, as her
acquaintance has been very pleas
ant and genial.

immigration statistics compiled by
q New York newspaper contain some
interesting information. In the six
weeks ending Sunday, May IL, $4,000
immigrants, half of them Italians,
have landed in New York. by the
end of May the steamship companies
b ,oks will show the arrival in the
United States of 10000 persons from
Italy, two out OF every three of them
men. Touching upon the striking
feature of these figures it is pointed
ont that i'm 1895 Italy furnished only
3G,96l Immigrants out of total from
all Europe of 27l ,223. In 1900 she
sent us 100, l35 out of total of 424 700,
or nearly one-fourth of all. Ireland,
Which Ill 1895 contributed a. 1912 i'm
migrants, last year sent only 35,130,
while Germany's 1881 of five years
ago dropped in 19oOto lS.507. Stlll it
is held that the popalar impression
that Italians now lead all other
na.ionalitles as immigrants to this
country is incorrect Austria Hum
gary sent us ll4,s47 people in 1900, OF
over $4,000 more than Italy. Russia
stands close to Italy, having added 9O,-
ISL persons to our population last
year.

TIT FOR TAT.

The braWny athlete builds up It's
sue and keeps in trim on beer.
Advertisement.
No bigger lie will appear in Twin
City papers this summer. Beer doesn't
build up tissue. It doesn't keep any
and more.
Those who favor the abolition of
the canteen are for the most part a
lot of hysterical old ladies who know
nothing whatever about the facts and
with whom it is wholly a matter of
sentiment-St. Paul Pioneer Press.
Mrs. Cornelia Moots, in charge Of
W. c. T. U. work in Manila, and work
ing early and late with and for our
soldier boys, writes, ssThank God, the
canteen is gone!" An officer writes
from the Philippines, "Our canteens
were farce. I am glad they are
gone. In one detachment of fifty men
900 bottles of beer were sold in three
hours" The Manila Ministers Asso-
citation resolved, 'The only effect of
the canteen was to multiply the num-
Der of saloons where the soldiers
could drink. The chief objection to
the canteen is that it keeps under a
mans very nose the opportunity to
drink. If he is a man who drinks
seldom, it tempts him constantly to
become immoderate. The state Sec
rotary of the Y M. G. A. of California
is in touch with the secretaries of all
army posts, both in this country and
in acquired territory. On the canteen
question he says: whenever you
see it stated in the newspapers that
the canteen diminishes drunkenness
or the number of saloons, put it down
as an Internal lie." He said the can
teen is the worst kind of saloon, and
the reason why officers do not speak
out against it is because they dare
not do it.
These are a few of the "hysterical
old ladies who know nothing whatever
about the facts and with whom it is
wholly matter of sentiment"

quickly the papers stopped printing
about prohibition not prohibiting in
Maine, after a genuine Prohibition
sheriff began doing business in Port
