Masons And Liquor.

That men return to boyhood prin-
ciples is often shown with startling
force. The recent decision Of the
Knight Templars of California that
they will not hereafter have liquor
served at their banquets is credit
able. The liquor traffic, OF better
term, the American saloon" may
think that its power is on the in
crease, but it is not true. The
healthy boy never thinks of liquor,
never desires it. Men come to mid
dle-age suddenly recognize the evil
in its abuse and turn back to the so
called Ignorance of boyhood in their
refusal to make it a part Of public
functions. The Oaks recognizes the
futility and absurdity of prohibition,
but it admires and sustains the man
or body of men who will deliberate
ly say that they do not need liquor
and will not use it. In business, in
society, in labor, the man who drinks
has by no means the standing that
he possessed twenty years ago. The
age demands sobriety.-The Oaks.

Simplifying Homework.

Perhaps the most interesting Of the
recent movements in the direction of
simplifying housework is that in favor
OF sun dried underwear. towels. bed
a,sen, etc. This stands for anothcr
working together for good When life
became complex. we begun to be-
grudge the time necessary for ironing.
and sometimes. If we thought we could
use our time more profitably than In
ironing we used our clothes rough
dried" But now we no longer speak
of rough dried" clothes, because hy-
gienists have told US that articles
which contain In their meshes fresh
summed air are more healthful than
those which contain the impure air OF
kitchen or laundry. They have told
us, also, that because air is a poor con-
ductor of heat and because clothes
which have not been pressed contain
more air thln those which have we
can get more protection from a given
weight of underwear which has been
sun dried than from the same weight
of that which has been ironed.

Joseph Pulitzer Opposed to Roosevelt.

Joseph Pulitzer, publisher of the
New York World, is in many re-
spects remarkable man. In a. re-
cent article speaking of his own ,n-
dition he uses these words; "or
the past sixteen years have been
unable to read the paper or goto the
office, having suffered the loss of
sight, Of health, of sleep, although
continuing the burden of response
bility for the conduct and character
of the paper, to which give every
moment of my waking time"
On the 30 ult. he cabled an edi-
torial to his paper from Hamburg,
from which we extract the following:
To appeal to national vanity and
pride in favor Of our holding some
wretched, far away islands by mill
tary brute force is undemocratic,
since the people there, if not equal
American citizens, can only be serfs
or slaves, and if government de
rives its just powers from the con-
sent Of the governed" we can only
hold them against their will by
strain and stretch of the Constitution
and in violation of the Declaration
of Independence. For it is true, as
Herbert Spencer has said, that he
who holds slave by a chain be-
comes himself the slave of that slave,
and in this attitude we must endan-
ger our own liberty and lose our
sense OF humanity. To prate about
war, fighting and a bigger navy, or
the biggest navy, is neither demo-
cratic, nor dignifed, nor moral, and
the ranting Of Presidential declara-
tions on this theme is an appeal tc
Ignorance, prejudice and passion.

How He Ii Worn Out In the Service

The prancing, high stepping hack

the rich are often driven the pace that
kills. In Horses Nine" Sewell Ford
tells the story of such horse and his
mate and how they were worn out.
The author says: Seeing them come
down the street, heads tossing, pole
chains jingling, the crest and mono
gram of the house of Jerry glistening
on quarter cloth and rosette, their pol
ished hoofs seeming barely to touch the
asphalt, you might have thought their
lot one to be enyied. But Bonfire
knew better.
He curved his neck and threw his
hoofs high, whether his muscles ached
or no; in winter he stamped to keep
warm. in summer to dislodge the flies

Airing Beds.

The directions for airing beds given
in a domestic training school are worth
noting. Place two chairs with seats
together near an open window. Fold
the counterpane neatly the long way
and lay over the tops of the chairs, al-
lowing the middle to sag down to the
seats Fold the blankets next and
place over the counterpane, allowing
space between each for the circulation
of air. Proceed in the same way with
the rest of the bedclothing, Beat up
the pillows and place them where they
will get the air.
