People are getting to know more than

the fashion to make all sorts of claims
for medicine, and wind up by asking
the reader to go to a drug store and buy

November was good day for the
government. In the weeping vic.
tories of prohibition and anti-salOon
forces the workingnnn's vote was q
big factor in the result. II has long
been known that agricultural COM
munities are generally for prohibition
on the 800 saloons in the eighteen
counties, voting in Illinois oh Mo-
'vember s. the majority were in rural
sections and 220 of those saloons
will, as result of the election, be
closed. There were however, some
notable victories in manufacturing
|centers. In Williamson County the
vote of the coal miners closed for
|ty-five saloons, and in Jacksonville,
ia manufacturing center of over 15,-
900 population, the working mans
vote closed thirty-two saloons. Close
students of the problem find behind
these facts an economic reason. Tbs

the line of opportunity in all-raths

with the question. "Shall I drink

One of the most drastic measures
recently passed in any body is that
of the Finnish Diet, which, on the

prohibiting absolutely the manufac-

survive thS cxars scrutiny is yet to
be decided. 1t will interfere some
