faith In the belief that the destiny OF
persons born in certain months was gov
erned by the gem Of which the month

them:

nifying repentance and Innocence.

In love.
June-The agate, symbolizing good
health and LONG life
July-The agate, signify.ng cure Of

Keep Your Distance

Distance has a magnetic power OF
lending enchantment not only To a
mountain view. but also 10 our mental
attitude toward our friends, says the
Philadelphia Bulletin.
To match the old saying, out of
sight. out of mind. there is that other
and truer saying, Absence makes the
heart grow fonder."
When we are with those we love their
faults annoy US. and in our irritation
we sometimes entirely lose sight OF our
affection.
But a little separation refines away
the sharper edges. Thinking upon him,
the best qualities of our friend stand
out clearly. The little faults and van
tiles fade away. With a new tender
ness we dwell upon this more perfect
picture of our friend, as he seems 10 us
now In fuller perspective. All the early
springs of affection revive; and il some
times dawns upon as that We had TO
go away from our friend in order TO
And this is precisely what we have
10 DO. As rule, We stand too close 10
people. Probably, outsiders see the
true proportions of the members of our
family circle a great deal more dc
curately than we see them,
Some persons we can never know right
until we remove ourselves proper
distance from them. Near at hand We
get only partial View. The sOrdid and
commonplace shut out all else.
You can get so close To a mountain
that YOU are able 10 see only a Jew
yards of dirt and scrubby bushes. You
have to keep far enough away if YOU
want &c behold the divine grandeur OF
its gigantic form.
There is no need to quarrel with
our imaginations If absence makes our
friends seem more dear and loVable
than we found them IN the flesh Let

distance nor call it a false idealiZauOn

X Fighting the Patent Medicine Scourge
Ieton Q
Great Movement Extending Throughout the Country
to Drive Alcohol from the Cover of
the Medicine Chest

~AAS0S
patent medicines is rapidly assuming
national proportions. AS a result of in
vestigations made by the prohibition
press during the past few years, many
leading daily papers throughout the
country are revising their advertising
requirements and are cutting out thou
sands of dollars worth of the more no
torious patent medicine publicity adj
vertising. Frauds, like Duffy's Malt
Whisky, are getting in real danger of
being excluded from reputable news
paper columns, and what the news
papers are doing is being supported in
enthusiastic fashion by many weekly
papers and monthly magazines A new
rule of Golfers Magazine cuts out all
advertisement of beer, whisky or alco-
holic liquors, while 'McClure's and the
Ladies' Home Journal, have al
ready announced similar prohibitions.
Although the fight in the New York leg
islature resulted in temporary defeat
for the anti-alcoholic medicine forces, it
served the purpose of bringing to public
view the terrific aggregation of capital
which is even now attempting to buy up
wholesale the country press of the
United States. The American Proprie-
tary Association claims that $4,000
600 worth of advertising is used by
them every year, but this fact instead
of proving an argument in favor of the
patent medicine conspiracy, has acted
like a boomerang in the progress of
events.
DR.. J. N. Mccormack, secretary of the
Kentucky State Board of Health and
representative of the American Medical
Association, declares that the news
papers are not going to be bought or
bullied into sanction of the fraudu-
lent practice" of these proprietary alco-
holic medicine quacks, and is making a
strong appeal for the concerted support
of the ministry throughout the country
to awaken the people on this subject.

tempt at gag law, authoritative evidence
has been secured that thousands of let
