AN UNIQUE FIGHT.

The authorities in New York City
are fighting for open saloons on Sun.
day. The contest 10 waxing quite
warm, and the district attorney. .
very able man. has sent to the iegis-
lature Q brief showing cause why the
excise law should pass. Some Of the
reasons are broad and unique, and an.
CUR q new era Of municipal gov ern-
ment in New York. 1t has been
claimed for some time that one reason
for 90 much corruption, black mail
and vics in the large cities is the
stringent. intolerant laws that are TO-
tally out Of keeping with the spirit Of
the people, and the demands Of the
place.
A few of the attorneys reasons
are:
Under Democratic forms Of gov
eminent Law is not permanently en-
forceable by elected authorities where
q large number Of persons in the local.
ity don't consider the act forbidden ~
immoral in itself, and are unwilling
to yield willing obedience to the law.
I'm Greater New York there are a
large number Of people who don't
consider il immoral to enter o saloon
and take drink on Sunday. New
York is q cosmopolitan city and its
inhabitants. being citizens and voters,
have . right to have their wishes re-.
spected. and their tastes and habits
considered whether they be foreign
born or native born.
1.-THE effect Of the present law 10 to
do irreparable damage to the commu-
nifty by tending to degrade those in
the liquor business and cause them TO
lose their self respect and their respect
for all law. The effect Of the proposed
change would be In an opposite direc-
ton.
IAN unenforcible law 90 herein
above defined always develops black
mail
1.-THE effect on the community
through the debaucbing OF the Pclice
by the present law favoring blaekrasii
is very serious"

ADD UP THE GAINS.

The virtue Of one dose is so
small you can't see any change.
But add together all the little
virtues from all the little doses
and the effect is very marked.
In consumption, as in other
cases, the results secured from
continued treatment with
SCOTS Emulsion come from
the accumulation OF many
small gains. A little gain in
strength each day-a little
gain in weight each day-it
continued for weeks, amounts
to something.
The fact that SCOTS Emul-
sion can be taken for SO long
a time without the slightest
inconvenience is greatly in its
favor as a medicine for con-
sumptives. Such a medicine
gives itself time to do good.

The observation made by Prof.
Starr of Chicago university that the
plant which bears the castor bean-the
ricinus conmunis, or palma Christi
is efficacious in driving away mos
quitoes, is by no means new, but is
valuable in reinforcing the influence
of one made SON time ago. Several
years have passed since it was remark
ed, somewhere in one of the Southern
states, ttsat where these plants grow
about a house mosquitoes were always
absent In view of the demonstrated
functions of the mosquito in spreading
malaria and yellow fever, new value is
given to all means for destroying that
evil insect or keeping it at distance.
The castor bean plant should therefore

tie former driving away the winged

and SO prevent its attacks under cir
cumstances where it would be inprac-

castor bean plant has long been COM
mon garden ornament, liked for its
rapid development to considerable
height, its picturesque foliage and
large -sopieal-looking leaves, with
flowers that. in certain varieties, are
also showily handsome. With its be-

Frog Farming Is Profitable.

United States is doing very well In

Inmates that we catch in this country
about 100000 frogs; that we masti-
cate their toothsome hind legs for the
qualification of our appetites. These
frogs, which have been hopping for
years more and more into the gas
tronomic favor, are sought for in all
parts of the country, furnishing a pay
ing industry not only for the hunters
of them in their natural haunts, but
the scores of persons who have frog
farms and RISE them as they might

frogs mean an annual investment of
