Howard welded an immense influence.
He found the prisons Of England the worst,
and said so, and secured their betterment.
His was a greatness that was admirable,
but not attractive. Il was honest and de-
voted, but heavy, dull and dreary. He
asked himself the question: Are idleness,
debauchery, disease and famine the neces-
sary accomplishments of prisons?' He
proved they we're not. Howard did a work

PoSToFFICE CLERKS PLANT
National Association Issues Pamphlet
Calling Attention to Unsatisfac-
tory Condition of Members,

The National Association Of Postoflce
Clerks has issued a pamphlet for general
circulation showing the condition OF the
employees Of this branch of the government
service, together with the bills which have
been introduced in the house and senate Of
the United States for their amelioration.
The circular says that for fifteen years
the clerks have been asking for a classih-
cation of work and salaries which will give
them living wages and approximately an
eight-hour workday. 1t says that the civil
service laws, after operating to place the
clerk on the eligible list, has little more of
interest for him, as advancement is too
often through political channels, and new
men in the service with powerful friends
will be advanced over equally worthy per-
sons who have no influence; that the men
are required to work eight, ten or twelve
hours as the service requires: salary after
appointment TO a regular position varying
from $500 to $500 per annum, while on the
probationary service the clerk makes but
enough to sustain life; that at this wage he
is compelled to master intricate and
changing postal schemes" and the forms
of the different departments of the service.
The circular then gives the text of the
proposed laws intended to improve the con-
dition Of the clerk. The first law mentioned
is one which provides for classification OF
service with a gradual increase of salary of
all clerks drawing less than 81 900 per
annum at the rate OF $40 each year until
1000 per annum is reached, and that the
salaries Of clerks now drawing $1,000 or
over may be increased at the same rate
until the maximum OF 81, 400 is reached.
These provisions are to apply to Offices of
the first class, while in Offices of the Sec
ond class the maximum shall be 5000 for
clerks drawing less than that sum and
s 1000 for clerks now drawing 5000; no clerk
to draw less than $500 per annum except at
substations.
The second bill limits the hours of labor
to forty-eight during the six working days
Of the week, with as much time on Sunday
as may be necessary for the good of the
service, extra hours to be paid for at the
regular rate OF wages.
The circular says that the officials Of the
Postofice department have conceded the
justice Of the demands OF the clerks, and
quotes extracts from ~ report Of the de-
partments. Under the present condi.
tion," says the circular, at requires but
little reasoning to see that the Postofhce
department becomes a training school only
and loses it's most efficient workers just al
the time they are best. qualified to render
the best service"

Announcements of the Theaters.

The discrimination of Henry w. Savage
in the matter OF selecting stage people
for the casting Of a musical comedy pro-
duction is clearly shown in the prince of
Pilsen," the new opera by PiXley and
Luders Of king Dodo" fame. which comes
to the Boyd Tuesday night for an engage
ment OF three performances. The prince
OF Pilsen" chorus is said to be one OF the
prettiest and best-voiced that ever trav-
eled under a Savage trademark. and this is
a strong endorsement, for the Savage
choruses are far-famed for their beauty
and vocal qualities. Mr.. Savage seems 10
have the happy faculty Of selecting ma
terial which combines pretty faces and
strong. fresh voices. This may be due "a
the fact that he is a staunch supporter OF
young men and young women OF talent,
preferring TO take chances on their devel-
opment rather than to ill his chorus with
familiar faces and voices that show the
effect OF long usage.

SOME HISTORICAL FACTS
which show the Phenomenal Growth
of the Anheuser-Busch Brewing
Association,


The story of the success of the Anheuser-
Busch Brewing association practically be-
gins with 1866, the year Mr.. A~dolphus
Busch bought an interest in the concern
which was then being conducted in a small
and moderately paying way.
The concern was known at that time as
E. Anheuser & Co. In 1873 1t was incor-
porated under the name of E. Anheuser
& Co.'s Brewing association, with Mr.. E.
Anheuser as president and Mr.. Adolphus
Busch as secretary and general manager.
Upon the death OF Mr.. Anheuser in 1889,
Mr.. Busch succeeded to the presidency,
which position he still holds.
The Anheuser- Busch Brewing association
are the recognized pioneers in the bottled
beer industry as they were the first to
bottle beer for export successfully.
Under Mr.. Busch's skillful guidance the
business developed phenomenally. Year
year after year 1t was necessary to add new
and larger structures to keep pace with the
ever increasing sales, so that now the en-
tire plant covers an area Of about 1875 acres
(equal to sixty city blocks) and consists
of a brew house Of 5000 barrels daily ca
pacity, bottling works OF 700, 900 bottles
daily capacity, ice plants of coo tons daily
capacity, malt houses Of $500 bushels daily
capacity. a cooling capacity of 1850 tons
per day, storage elevators for malt and
barley Of 1850 bushels capacity, stock
houses for l~agering purposes OF AIS, 00O
barrels capacity. a power plant with CO.,
900 square feet OF heating surface. equal
to 1850 horse power, of which 1000 horse
power are transferred to the electric power
plant just completed and is the largest and
most complete plant of its kind of any pri-
vate corporation In the country.
Besides the above the Anheuser-Busct
Brewing association own and operate theiI
W railroad to connect with the terminals
Also tin, carpenter. wagon, paint. harness
and cooper shops.
Three thousand FIVE hundred employees
are engaged at the st. Louis plant. About
1900 additional men are employed at the
associations forty-two branches in the
principal cities in the union.
The buildings are OF most modern ar
chitecture and are built of red brick trim
med with granite and white stone, AND
present q most imposing picture.
Six guides are employed to take care OF
visitors, and 1t Is safe to say more people
pass through this great plant than through
any other establishment In the world.
These figures form an interesting record
of growth: In 1865, 5000 barrels were sold
and in 1901 the million-barrel mark was
passed, the sales for 1902 being 1.1O9. S15
barrels and by far exceeds the output Of
any other brewery.
The trade of the Anheuser- Busch asso-
citation is not confined to the United States
or the American continent. but the famous
"Budweiser," which is justly termed THE
King of Bottled Beers is well known tC
the civilized people throughout the entire
world.

DEATH VOLUNTARY.
Sacrifice on the Cross Forms the Sub
Ject of Communion Sermon.

Ject of Communion Sermon.
The sermon of Rev. J. NJ. Ross at the
Central United Presbyterian church Sunday
morning was a prelude to the communion
service which Immediately followed. He
took for his text the second chapter OF
Galatians, twentieth verse, who gave Him
self for me-" The idea in the sermon was
to outline briefly the teaching Of the Bible
in reference to Christ's sacrifice. The
speaker called attention to the fact hat
that which Christ did was voluntary.
Note again" said the minister. that in
thus giving Himself for us Christ's was a
death OF great suffering. A finely advanced
nature can suffer much more keenly than a
coarse, brutal nature. The cry on the
cross, Why hast thou forsaken Me?' was
not a formal one. And now we here are
able to live happily. hopefully, ~joyously
and usefully because He gave Himself for
us. It is the mystery OF iniquity, the sin
of thoughtless millions that they do not re-
ceive Him For the mere asking they can
be heirs OF God, rejoicing in hope, rejoice
ing in life everlasting, because Christ gave
Himself for us. Let us come unto Him at
this table, giving our great reverence.

He has done for US"

RIGHTEOUSNESS FIRST DUTY
Original Demand of Christ Pointed Out by
Rev. Robert YoSt.
WARNING AGAINST DlsslPATED Il E
Pastor Pleads for Purity of Character,
sobriety of Thought and Action
and Conservation 20
Cod.

Rev. Robert Yost, pastor OF st. Mary's
Avenue Congregational church, Sunday
morning preached on the subject, Reason
able Demands" The pastor wildly re-
minded his congregation that its first duty
lay in the path Of a righteous life; that II
was an obligation which the people WED
their Savior, which they should not shirk
nor forget. In a word picture he painted
the lesson so often seen in the daily walks
Of life where a man. rushing through the
routine Of his business career six days a
week, at last succumbs and is pointed out
as one who has overworked, exceeded his
physical strength, who dies in the flower
Of his youth, while the devoted Christian,
true to the principles OF the church, devout
and earnest in the faith, passes to the end
and Is looked upon as one who has sacri-
need his life in Christian dissipation. His
true worth was not weighed in itS proper
merit and his Christian record was too
soon forgotten.
The one day Of the week which is held
apart for devotion and communion with
Christ was often forgotten through the en-
deavor to make a success Of living, while
the duty we owe our God was more often
not even considered. The pastor considered
It a reasonable demand that we devote the
one day to worship OF Christ, thoughtful
study Of His life and works, which would
tend to assist us in our strife for a liveli-
hood. He also said that mercy should be
more in evidence in our everyday living,
and held that the greatest example of
mercy. with the exception Of Christ's death
on the cross, was the return Of the prodigal
son.
The pastor took occasion to remind his
congregation that he considered II a reason
able demand that they attend church more
regularly, not compelling him to preach to
empty pews.

TALKS ON GETTING A START
Rev. jerks Delivers First of Series OF
Special m

Rev. Edwin Hart jerks preached at the
First Presbyterian church last evening the
first Of a series OF New Years sermons
upon Getting a Start" HIS theme was,
'"The Man Who Started" and substantially
he said:
1.-THE world is interested in self-made
men; their lives sound for us the Keynote
OF success. They stand in the radiant light
at the top Of the mountain of achievement
and aspiring youth would have a place by
their side. These have been men of pur-
pose and they have had the will to carry It
out to realization. Purpose, alone, ~fritters
away manhood in dreams; the will har-
nesses imagination to effort and man wakes
TO work.
who is the man who started? His name
is legion. Every mar who has a name or a
place in this great world of ours has some
day awakened to the consciousness OF a
power within and has said to himself, I
will apply that power to some achieve
ment.'
Look at our man OF great riches; under
meath that fortune lies the seed Of economy
and a first dollar saved. Look at our great
writer; somewhere is a soiled page over
which a soul has bent in earnest resolve
to be a writer. To make a beginning is
where so many make failures. They are
like housekeeping horses coming again and
again to score, but never plunging over into
the stretch.
Now, in religion the same is true. There
are many who purpose to lead a better life.
New Years comes with its opportunities,
and resolves are made, but no real start.
The lesson Of success is, make a start. But
is there not a great deal Of preliminary
work Of preparation to be thought OF? Yes.
but work. Am I good enough? No, but
start. Let nothing hinder your starting.
II you want to be rich, start by putting the
first dollar you get in the bank. II you
want to be a scholar start at once to get an
education. II you want to be a Christian,
start without a minutes delay and you are
one"

Evangelist Miller, who is conducting SER

while Robert Cuscaden rendered a violin

Mr.. Palmer made an appeal to travelling

so many failed in business was because
they failed to recognize the profit to the
business, which may be drawn from close

narrow limits. Finally, the Sanitorium
must be without flaw.
We are now in position to say that
in erecting sanitorium arrangements
should be made OF such kind that:
Il The buildings are SO situated and
of such nature that the forma ton of

-. The dust. which inevitably col

ton and rivals the outside air in point

'5. The number of recreation rooms
arG other places OF assemblage is linz
tied and everything avoided which is
calculated TO tempt patients to stay in
duors.''
d. Latham makes this further sum-
many:
Il. The bedrooms of the Individual
sexes should, as far as possible, be il
separate blocks.
90 The accommodation for visitors
should be strictly limited
%. No special provision should be
made for exciting amusements, but
well-stoclled library and other forms of
harmless recreation should be provided.

should be easily regulated and of sEch
kind that they do not interfere with
the humidity of the air.

1t is the conviction Of the essayist
that whenever there is active inf1am-
nation in the lungs bodily rest is i'm
perative. Exercise is one of the chief
causes of Il rise of temperature in this
disease, and has in fact been used for
diagnostic purposes. If the more acute
stages of the disease pulmonary rest
can be obtained only by complete bod
lily rest. In this way we allow the dis
eased parts of the lungs time to heal
by natural processes. and the record of
such treatment shows what excellent
results can be obtained. The inf1amma-
tory process gradually diminishes ana
the disease becomes ouiescent. How
ever, just as in the case of fractured
leg there comes a time when massa ge
and passive movements are imperative
so when tuberculous disease has be-
come sufficiently quiescent, exercise in
some form or another must be taken.
It is admitted by all Psychologists that
for the body to be in perfect health it
must be maintained in activity. How
much exercise a patient should take
must be determined by the physician IN
| charge. There can be no fixed rule. but
| it may be said that exercise is pernis-
| sible whenever it does not tend to ex-
acerbate the disease"
DR.. Latham and all the competing
essayists agree that the sanitorium
| treatment, with its regular hours. ex-
ercise, rest, baths, and meals, with its
abundant food of purest quality, with
| its sheltered exposure to sun and air.
and with it's constant attendance of
expert physicians, promises excellent
hope of recovery to patients not too far
exhausted. Indeed, they state that
! recoveries are being recorded in many
places, and that the question now is
| largely how this nature-remedy is to be
| put within reach of all.
