SEMT-EETOTALISM
A NEW SCHEME TO PREVENT
 DRUNKENNESS.
High English Authorities Approv'
 the New Pledge Against Drink ing Between Meals-opinions of Eminent Men.

London Mail.
 'T solemnly undertake to abstain from all intoxicating drinks as beverages ex- cept at my midday meals" Such is the simple little pledge of which the Rev. F. s. Webster is issuing a stead lily increasing number to would-be semi teetotalers" at All Souls, Langham Place.
 The rector has now seen fit to sever him. self from the semi-teetotal scheme which unexpectedly arose from his chance sug- eestion that those who would not take the pledge of total abstinence should un- dertake to drink no intoxicants between meals.
 MT. Webster's reasons for this step are that he had no idea when he made the suggestion how noteworthy 1t would prove,, that he has manifold duties to perform, and that he feels bound to bend all his energies in forwarding the work of his own temperance society with It's doctrine of total abstinence.
 The work, however, will go on. and ev- cry day there Is fresh evidence that there is a real need for this reasonable and un- denominational pledge.
 Again on Saturday the matter was placed before a number of well-known people, who all expressed their approval of the scheme.
 Criminolog1Sts V1eWs'
 Sir Robert Anderson, late head of the Criminal Investigation Department, was quick to grasp the uses of the scheme
 "It seems to me-" he said, both reas- onable and definite, and is, in fact, very similar to certain rules for drinking laid down many years ago by my old friend Dr. Kidd. He laid 1t down that cer- tain amount of alcohol was good for some people at meal times, but that every man ought to discover what was best for him. self That is a principle which has gov erned me practically ever since. Form erly however, I was afflicted With an unsuitable thirst, not for alcohol. but for water, ginger beer, tear-any fluid, in fact that could get
 50 bad, indeed, was this thirst, that 1 always mapped out my long Sunday walks fin such a way that should be certain of being able to quench 1t. Then by ex- perimenting I became convinced that this thirst was begotten by constantly drink ing lemonade and so on between meals. The more 1 drank the more l wanted to drink.
 'I put myself under severe discipline, md finally never drank between meals. Bo we'll did I succeed that I remember lew years ago, on what the papers after ward stated was the hottest day Of the summer, l LOOK lonB piCJcIe t'ue, anu linen for an hour played tennis with my Hons. who do not allow me much rest on The court But all took for luncheon was one small glass of lemonade.
 "so I got over my artificial thirst and An the same way am sure that the crav- mg for stimulants is artificial Person ally, I never took stimulants while at work, for there is always reaction If one has to continue working. But the case of the man who goes home from his work to his dinner and takes little alcohol is different-his reaction Is the armchair.

You know. most things are marked down after the first of the year, and an extra effort Is made to get rid of the surplus stock in anticipation of the spring sales.
 "It is astonishing how many people take advantage of this state of affairs to do their Christmas shopping cheaply. They give themselves away by making such little remarks as: This will be nice for Alice next Christmas;' or John wanted that on Christmas. so we'll just get 1t and keep 1t for him till next year know an elderly lady who does all her Christ mas shopping at Atlantic City during the summer.

Marketing Live Fish

A Swiss concern has patented an inge- nious device for transporting live fish. which promises commercial value. as well as scientific interest to inland col leges desiring to obtain specimens of ma- rine life for classroom and laboratory work, says Country Life in America. The device consists of a tank of water with a cylinder of oxygen attached. The most delicate fish can be packed in great quan- titles and will keep alive for thirty-six hours, and 1t Is expected that with larger cylinders of oxygen the time will be heightened. Shellhsh and eels could be packed like sardines in a box. The de- vice Is automatic and requires no care during transportation. Large quantities of live fish are now being sent from Switzerland to other parts of Europe by the inventors. This firm receives IS cents a pound for live brook trout delivered in Vienna, while the dead ones bring only 2 cents per pound

 It is neglect and the fear that exists in allowing oneself to think that he or she has consumption that causes so many fa- talities. If every one would pay proper attention to their health and not let the disease germs Turk in their system until the system becomes completely pregnated with them, We would not read reports that B Ia per cent of all the deaths in, Greater New York are caused by consumption.
 Hundreds of thousands have testified that they have been cured of consumption by Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey in .the past forty years. Duffy's Pure Malt whiskey is absolutely pure, free from fusel oil or any other dangerous ingredient. and con- tains medicinal properties which make 1t the g1 eatest cure in the world for con- sumption and wasting diseases of what: ever kind.
