SOME TEMPERANCE DOTS.

Maine as whole, is dryer than al
any time in the history of tae State.
There are only two cities that have
not adopted stringent measures to
suppress the liquor traffic, as a result
of the passing of the Enforcement
bill which Governor Cobb recently
signed.
The man who drinks cannot hoid
an appointive Office under Governor
Hanly, of Indiana. He declares that
large corporations rule against men
who have formed the LIQUOR habit
and that this policy will be adopted
In respect to positions within the
gift of the executive.
One distillery company in Ken
lucky turns out every seven DAYS
1000 barrels of sweet mash whiskey.
The output for year would be g.
400 barrels. The cost of all this to
the manufacturers may be fairly es-
tlnlated at 1874, 400, and they re-
ceiye from the wholesaler a profit of
from 81 to 50 per barrel. The gov
eminent comes in for q nice little
rakeof, but the fellow who has to
pay it all, including transportation
charges, government and loca |
license fees, salary of barkeeper and
rent of buildings is the man before
the bar, aud for these SO, 400 barrels
OF booze he lets go of $24,76I, ,67S
and then goes home and beats his
wife because supper isn't ready.
DIR. Charles Richet, of France, one
of the best authorities in the world
on the psychological action Of alcohol
says in substance what other author
tiles confirm, namely, "that alcohol
even in small doses, over-stimulates
the memory, the Imagination and the
association Of ideas. At the same
time 1t depresses the judgment, con-
science reflection and will. While this
unbalancing process is going on, it is
attacking the base of the brain
over-exciting the animal impulses of
the man, and by as much as the
higher faculties are depressed the
lower faculties run riot in the man s
body. so that under the continuous
habit of drink, he comes to act more
and more under his impulses and
less and less under his Judgment,
conscience and will" This, DIR.
Taylor said, was unquestionably the
most serious statement that can be
made by any man on the temperance
question today, because it accounts
IN a scientific way for the harm
wrought by drink. "Iu no other
way can We account for the fact that
nine-tenths of all the crimes COM
mitted are the result Of liquor drink
ing," added DR.. Taylor.

Sometimes, a flaming city is saved by dyna-

times, a cough hangs on so long, you feel as II
nothing but dynamite would cure 1t. z. T.

her; so she took DR.. Kings New Discovery

cured her." Strictly scientific cure for bron-

In the 100 pounds above, only a
fraction over 35 pounds of phosphoric
acid exists in the bag, the remainder
being useless, so far as the farmer is
concerned, and is simply so much
"fller," for which the manufacturer
is not responsible, and to get rid of
which would add too largely to the
cost. If the phosphate is acidu-
lated 1t does not help the mat
ter, as it does not get rid of the
"6ller." The same with bone. Nat
ure adds the "filler" and the bag
of phosphate contains nearly Go
pounds of useless material. The
same with nitrate of soda, which
contains 81 pounds of "filler" to l6
pounds of nitrogen, the .'filler" being
beyond the control of the manufac-
turer. All the potash salts, sulphate
of ammonia, and other raw materials,
are composed mostly of "filler," and
the man ufacturer does not have to
add it to the plant foods. In fact,
he is only too anxious to discover
some method by which he can get
rid of the ''filler" in the bags.
While the manufacturer is COM
PEELED to sell "tiller" that is imposed
on him by Nature, aud which takes
up valuable space in the bags, there
are some who are continually harp
ing on the subject of "filler," as
though it were added to the bags,
when the truth of the matter is, that
the manufacturer gets nothing for
the useless material, yet must handle
100 pounds of such in order to sell
16 pounds of nitrogen.

1t is easier to believe Christ divine

said in any other way.
| believe Christ has earned the title
of Prince of Peace-He brings peace
to the individual.
The man who seeks wealth in order
TO get peace spends the first half of
his life in trying to get money from
other people, and the last half of his
life in trying to keep other people from
getting his money-and there is no
peace for him.
Thou shalt love thy neighbor as
thyself'-that was the platform of the
Prince of Peace, and no political plat
form can be written which is not found.

There can be no just settlement of
any public question unless in harmony
with the platform of the Prince of
Peace.
That also is the platform to settle
differences between nations.
feel it is a shame to the Christian
nations of the world when thousands
of men are dying on Asiatic battle
fields and these nations stand by with
only one query-whch side will get
the most out of it?
No deed done for the right is done
without avail.
