DRINKING AMONG EMPLOYEES
Indulgence In Alcoholic stimuIant
flinders Their Advancement and
Frequently Wrecks Bright
Business Careers.

The interest Of the employer should
be the study Of the employee The en-
plOyer depends upon his clerks and
workmen to give his business their
best efforts for success. Failing in this
essential, they not only retard his ven
lures, but Oftener do him great injury.
Employers are quick to recognize merit,
and advance in position and salary
those deserving. The ones left behind
are apt to become jealous and attribute
the advancement of their associates to
fayoritiSm or to some other cause,
when in reality their lack of adapta-
bility or want of attention to their du-
ties, due to personal habits that need
correction, is the reason for their re-
naming stationary.
One of the most prolific causes In the
nonadvancement of the employee Is in
diligence in alcoholic stimuIants. He
may be first class man in every re-
spect aside from his falling, but he
does not enjoy the full confidence of
his employer. He may go to excess in
his drinking only occasionally, but the
fact remains that he is liable to do so
at any time, and in these strenuous
days of aggressive commercial cOmpe-
tition the man in business, whether en-
ployer or employee, who drinks IL

away all his prospects in business,

addiction become necessity to enable
him to accomplish his daily work. The
end can be easily foretold unless the
drink habit is overcome.
This is not an easy task. The drink
er who attempts to stop usually discOv-
ers that the craving for alcoholic stirn-
ulant has weakened his will power to
such an extent that after short period
of abstinence he succumbs to his desire
for liquor upon the slightest pretext
and is soon back again in the same old
rut
What he needs is medical assistance,
remedy that will remove all craving
for liquor and restore his normal
health. The Oppenheimer Treatment
for alcoholism is such remedy. 1t has
saved and is saving thousands by its
means. The craving for alcohol is re-
moved within twelve to forty eight
hours and the patient is restored to
normal health in a few weeks. There
is no interference with the usual occu-
patton nor Is there any publicity. Any
one interested can obtain full informa-
ton from the Oppenheimer Institute of

with which he kept hung around his
neck the little leather envelope, shaped
like heart which contained poison
that was to liberate him In case Of ir-

poison was prepared after recipe that
Cabanais had given to Coryisart. and
after the year 1903 the emperor never
undertook campaign without having

OBJECTS TO SUIT.
Ex.TREASURER GRIMES WILL
PAY WITHOUT coMPULsION.

Topeka. Jan. 22.-F. E. Grimes, ex
state treasurer, called upon Gov
Hoch and told him tLat it would not
be necessary to bring an action
against him to recover any short
ages. Grimes said If the administra-
ton wanted to put the bond brokers
on record under oath as to getting
clipped coupons, it could be done by
affidavits just as well as by their tes-
timony in court He believed that
the bond brokers would all make affi-
davits that they got the coupons, as
their letters state, and that affidavits
are just as binding as testimony. AT
ter these affidavits were secured and
filed, he would make good the re-
mainder of the shortage under his adj
ministration. He said the affidavit
plan would save him heavy costs for
attorney fees and witness fees that
would necessarily follow if suit were
instituted 1t was hard enough on
him to pay a shortage which he didn't
owe, personally, without piling up
lot of unnecessary court costs. He
was willing to waive the statute or
limitations and exemption laws and
give up his home and everything else
he possessed, if necessary. to meet
any shortage that could not be eX-

PAcIFIcATIoN OF BALTIC PROV
INcEs GOES MERELY ON.

st. Petersburg, Jan. 2O.-Two fur-
Their naval battalions were dispatched
to the Baltic provinces to crush the
revolt in the itlands of the coast re-
gions.
Count White received a telegram
from General Sollogub, governor gem
eral of the Baltic provinces, saying
that the pacifcation of Esthonia and
Livonia was progressing satisfactorily
but that it was tagging in Courland.
Over twenty of the principal leaders
of the insurrection, the governor gen.
eral said. had been apprehended and
eight of them executed. The tele-
gram says 1t is reported that Riga is
again unsafe, owing to an influx OF
agitators from the country districts.
The governor general says his judg'
ment in executing the eight leaders
of the insurrection has been justified
by an incident which occurred lately
at Riga. when six armed men broke
into the Waterman and carried on
cash box and several documents.

MRS. FAIRBANKS NERVE.
Has an Iron Endurance Because She
Never Worries.

Mrs. Fairbanks, wife of the vice
president, declares that she does not
possess nerves, and it would seem
that this is no idle boast. Mrs. Fair
banks has an iron endurance, and she
attributes her fortitude, mental and
physical, to the fact that she never
allowed herself to worry over any
thing great or trivial. But she al
ways secures ample rest, no matter
what her engagements. During the
maddening days of the last d. A. R..
congress when several thousand wo-
men would talk at once on as many
different themes, Mrs. Fairbanks
would endure the confusion as long
as possible, and then, giving the ga
vel to another officer, she would go
to a nearby hotel and take a half
hours repose. She always drinks hot
milk when she is going through physi-
cal or mental fatigue.

HAMILTON STATEHOOD BILL TO
BE REPORTED TO HOUSE.
WILL PASS, SAYS GHoSviNoR.
Mr.. Babcock Leader of the "lnsur-
gents" Is AS Confident AS Ever
That Bill Cannot Pass House With
out Amendment

Washington, Jan. 20.-Representa'
tive Grosvenor, of Ohio, said that the
Hamilton statehood bill would prob
ably be reported next Tuesday under
the rule shutting out amendments.
There has not yet been meeting OF
the committee on rules, and the state
hood matter has not been considered.
Gen. Grosvenor's opinion, however is
shared by others close to the throne,
Mr. Watson, the whip of the house,
named the same date in discussing
the situation.
General Grosvenor confidently pre-
diets that the Hamilton bill be con
sidered under the rule and will then
pass the house, according to the
''stalwart" program. Mr.. Watson
said that the bill would be reported,
and if the insurgents wanted to take
the responsibility of defeating the
house program and the statehood Dill
it was their affair - indicating less
confidence than his colleague.
Mr. Babcock was indispoSed and
was not active at the session, but said
tonight at his house that nothing had
transpired during the day to give his
side the least uneasiness. On the con-
trary, he had received reports which
indicated a steady development of the
strength of the opposition and said
the opponents of the Hamilton Dill
would certainly defeat it.
A strong instance of White House
coercion was brought to his attention
during the day, which had strength
ened the spirit of resentment.
He said that some capital had been
made out of the showing of the in
surgents on the Philippine bill, but
unjustly. They had shown their
strength on the William Alden Smith
amendment, polling over seventy
votes on a proposition that differed
materially from proposition to vote
down an obnoxious rule, as they in
tended to do in connection with the
statehood program. The two were
not on the same level. The course
of the insurgents toward the Philip
pine bill had been clearly decided at
a meeting last Sunday and another on
Monday The result, he said could
not possibly afford the stalwarts of
the house any clue as to their strength
on the proposed gag rule. ~
