WHY MEN DRINK.

What is it that prompts the average
drinking man to continue his induI-
gence though fully conscious OF the
fact that his ruin is being brought
about?
The old theory that 1t Is a liking for
the taste of liquor is now thoroughly
exploded. Probably not one man in
ten who may properly be considered
as coming within the category OF ex-
cessive users Of alcoholic stimulants
experiences any pleasure in the taste
itself. In fact, there are many to
whom whisky, gin or brandy is pos
itiyely nauseating and who partake
Of those liquors only with conscious
effort.
Many drink from desire to relax the
nerves and escape for a time from the
cares and worries Of their lives Conviv-
iality may be cited as another cause or
excuse for drinking, but the drinking
man is not always with his associates.
Nevertheless it figures as big factor
in the formation OF the craving for
alcoholic stimulants.
While the evils Of drunkenness have
long been recognized, the method of
Its cure has only been solved within
few years. 1t Is now treated as a
disease, and as such can be overcome
by specially devised remedies. Logic
ally and scientifically speaking, the
only way by which the inebriate can
be cured is by removing from him the
craving for liquor. which is the root
Of the evil, and by bringing his
nerves into such state that they will
no longer demand alcoholic stimulant.
Such treatment is administered at the
Oppenheimer Institute, New York city.
and is accomplishing excellent results.
On the advisory board Of directors OF
the Institute are Bishop c. Fl. Fowler.

]. Hughes, Paulist Fathers, New York:
Major General H. G. Corbin, U. 8. A.,
and many other equally well known
and distinguished men.
The treatment 10 very simple The
desire for alcoholic stimulant is re-
moved within forty-eight hours and
the patient restored to normal health in
few days. There need be no cessa-
ton OF the usual business while the
treatment is being taken nor any one
the wiser. A request to the Open

Parson Carter was In little better
case. New men, methods, measures
had crowded him from the place he
loved so well. Now, for two years past
Miranda's bounty had maintained him.
He knew the source OF it, although he
never mentioned her name. She was
no mere dancer. but an actress who
had conquered her place In the world.
Landon had lived up to his word-he
had made her rich and famous, albeit
he had been unable to make her love
him.
Why, he could not understand. Tom
Brfxton might possibly have enlight-
ened him. 1t was. Tom who kept Mi
randa In touch with what went on in
the little brown cottage, and when he
said simply Gomez she knew some
thing Of what to expect.
But not all. No fancy could paint
for her the mother face, wan and full
of mother longing. or show the father,
thin and bowed, with yet something Of
soldier fire in his faded eyes. Grand
father Carter was pitifully aged. The
good man had lived so sparely he was
almost bloodless.
Miranda came in to them, not a
creature OF silk and lace. but in the
same stun fr0ck she had worn upon
her outgoing. As she looked from one
to another her heart rose in her throat.
Instlnctively she ran and caught her
mother in her arms, kneeling to lay
her head upon the thin breast and sob
out, II am never going away again
If you will let me stay"
No, she isn't going, whatever you

HORSE Thieves

Stock Inspector Geo. w. Hall of
this city and John B. Lea of Shelby
and officers of the Canadian mounted
police are now engaged in the collect
ing Of evidence that will result in a
few days in the arrest of several men
who are accused of having stolen
many horses in Montana and Alberta.
Some of the accused men have fled
southwark, but they have been lOcat-
ed and are nov under surveillance,
and others will be arrested at their
homes in ChOuteau or Teton counties
and across the international bound
airy.
The officers have been working on
the case for several weeks, and they
have at last secured the evidence
that will Justify them in making the
arrests as soon as the necessary war
rants may be procured.
1t appears that the thieves have
been doing business Oh wholesale
scale, stealing horses on either side of
the line, selling the stolen horses in
Montana and those stolen in Mon
tana across the line. a large number
of the stolen horses have been recOv-
cred and others located, and it is ex-
pected that several men, who have
borne good regulations will be accus-
ed of completely in the thefts when
the officers act. Some of the horses
have come as far south as Beayerhead
county and some as far distant as
Winnipeg.
Lucke is opening another large line
of sample shoes, especially for bargain
seekers. These goods, while they are
better than regular stock goods, can
