Saloon Men as Social Reforners.
Editor West virginian: Z Is,
.A day or two sagoafS noticed In d
EFairmont paperan article to the effect
That the retail liquor men Of this city
had formed an organization, the pur.
pose Of which amongst other things.
was to strictly observe our state and
municipal laws; and that they had
signed a pledge to this effect. This
action, thus far, is commendable com.
Ing from this class Of men. But when
we read a little further about one Of
the purposes Of the order It takes on
very amusing aspect, even TO an
observer who never penetrates beyond
the surface. 1t Is stated that feature
and Idea Of the organization Is for Nor.
al and strictly Social Improvement. Can
you let your Imagination take flight
and fancy and conceive OF q body OF
saloon men bonding themselves to.

pose OF moral improvement, Of elevat.

race. OF stamping vice under their
feet and removing temptation from
The reach Of their fellow men? This

Even a Hat Is Used for Smuggling
Alcohol.


Il not for the fear of teaching dishon-
est men how to defraud the govern
ment
"Double-bottomed bottles and other
vessels are common contrivances Of
smugglers. In order not to awaken our
suspicion they are usually filled with
some beverage. beer or wine, and this
is duly declared by the man in charge
Of the vehicle. We have often been
swindled in this way in the past. Now
we are never deceived by double bot
toned bottles, nor for that matter by
hollow horse collars, which was at one
time another favorite dodge Of the
alcohol smuggler.
But have come across even moro
ingenious tricks than these. In snug

Paris it is not at all necessary to have
a vehicle and bulky cargo, A single

under his spotless waistcoat and white

SMUGGLING LIQUOR
SOME QUEER WAYS OF SETTING
ALCOHOL INTO PARIS.
Despite All the Efforts Of the Police
Thousands Of Gallons Of Con-
trahand Alcohol Gets Into
the City.

Alcohol without a doubt is the arti-
Gle most often smuggled through the
gates Of Paris, and this is due to the
fact that the tax upon it has steadily
increased during the past few years.
Naturally, increased taxation means
higher profits on contraband goods
and therefore quiekens the ingenuity
Of smugglers.
Under our very eyes, writes an Of
ficer Of the Paris custom house. in the
Scientific American, these men an
nually pass thousands of gallons OF
valuable .9irits into the city, where it
is readily disposed Of at high prices to
makers of perfumes or to liquor deal
ers. who use It for adulterating their
goods. Yet we keep a sharp watch on
all who pass through the gates OF the
capital. None can enter until he sat
isles US that contraband articles are
not hidden on his person. no vehicle
Is admitted until it has been thorough
" searched and every cask of liquor
must be declared before the owner Is
authorized to pass on.
4 can assure my readers that 1t is
well worth while to smuggle alcohol
into Paris. The dues on each liter or
quart amount to four francs 15 cen
times. say 66 cents. Imagine the profit
to be derived by any one who succeeds
in smuggling several thousand gallons
Of alcohol a year. Among the thousand
and one methods employed by Snug
glers some very curious ones have
come under my observation during the
20-odd years that have been connect
ed with the service. In the warehouses
Of the Hotel de Vile are stored all
sorts Of ingenious smuggling appa-
ratus. They are SO numerous that
! quite museum could be formed, were

TAKING Up CARPETS.
Some Little Hints That Will Make sao
Task Easy.

Taking up carpets IS one Of The
most disagreeabIe Of housecleading
tasks usually, lor the simple reason
that the majority Of persons do not
properly perform the work.
To prevent the usual cloud Of dust
when removing a carpet, first loosen
the tacks, picking them all up as
drawn, which viii prevent accidents
and take only few minutes Of time.
Do not move the edge Of the car
pet until all the tacks have been re-
moved, then begin at one side and roll
the carpet carefully to the other side
Of the room.
TWO or three persons can roll 1t
better than one alone. Lift it care
fully at both ends and the middle at
the same time. and carry 1t out Of
doors and away from the house to
be cleaned Begin at one side Of the
room again and roll the papers with
the dust on them. taking only few
at time. and being very careful not
to disturb the dust.
Carry the rolls out as they are made
and pile them on the ground where
they can be burned.
When the papers have all been re-
moved there viii be no dust on the
floor or in the air. and mopping
Of the floor with a clean mop and q
good suds will make it fresh.
II there was no paper under the car
pet the tacks aa1 carpet should be
removed in the same manner and a
lot Of bits of newspape. we'll damp
ened should be scattered over the
dusty floor Stir the paper gently
about with the broom so as to gather
the dust; then take it up in little piles
on the dustpan.
Scatter another lot OF the dampened
paper and sweep It gently together,
then mop the floor with the good suds.
