There is much evidence of lavish use
of ribbons, laces, braids-gold, per-

match the dress materials.
Taffeta bands are also to be used
very much, and there is still evidence
of the wide braids on the skirts, and
the narrow ones for the blouses OF
jackets. Taffeta is still seen more as
trimming than as dress stuff.

THE DRINK PROBLEM.
The Surest Cure Of the Evil Is in Ex-
tinction of Drink Traffic.


At recent public meeting under
the auspices of the Scottish Temper.

the solicitor general for Scotland, Mr..
Alexander IRE, NJ. c., NJ. p, the prin-
cipal speaker. said IL IL were practic-

extinction of the drink traffic alto.
gether; but he was a practical poll
tcian. He regarded the problem not
as a vice to be extinguished, not as a
crime to be suppressed. but as a ques-
tion of the habits and the customs of
the people. Now they were powerless
to effect change in the habits of a
nation unless they had at their back
the vast overwhelming mass of public
opinion. In his opinion 1t would be
impossible to command at the present
moment an adequate force and volume
of public opinion to absolutely prohibit
the drink traffic in all parts of Scot
land, and it was now universally
agreed that If prohibition was to be
carried at all 1t must be by very sub
stantial majority, and the minimum
that had been suggested even by ex-
treme temperance reformers was a
two-thirds majority of the electors vot-
ing, or a clear majority of the electors
on the roll. Now, in favor of absolute
prohibition they would no doubt be
able to count upon a generous esti-
mate ten per cent of the electors to
give their steady support, but in order
to carry absolute prohibition they
would require to reinforce their ten
out of 100 by 81 out of the remaining

ABSINTHE CURSE.
Increased Consumption Causing Anxl-
ely in European Countries.

Increase in the consumption of abb
sinthe is causing some uneasiness in
Europe. In Belgium. law has lately
been passed forbidding its manufac-
ture, importation, transportation or
sale. similar measure was adopt
ed in the canton of Vaud, by a popu-
lar vote. The Catholic congress Of
Fribourg passed resolutions approving
this Swiss initiative. In the Journal
des Debats, DR.. Daremberg states that
in 1884 France consumed absinthe to
the amount of 49,335 hectolitres; in
1894, 125,07S, and in 1904, 207 ,929. 1t
is said that the absinthe habit pre-
walls especially among the younger
literary folk; but it is spreading rap
idly among business men. The habit
increases the liability to tuberculo-
sis, for most patients in the consump-
tive hospitals in France have been alb.
sinthe drinkers. In this country,
says the New York Post, during the
last 20 years, there has been con.
siderable increase in absinthe drink
ing; it is usually taken in the form
OF vermouth, which is an infusion OF
absinthe in white wine.

A COSTLY DRINK.
How an Inheritance Slipped Through
the Fingers of an lnebriate.

Evidence was presented recently in
the probate court of Des Moines, Ia,
OF an act which changes the owner
ship of an estate. A wealthy citizen
of Des Moines made a will bequeath-
ing one of his farms, said to be worth
about $4,000, and legacy of S12, 900 in
cash 10 a citizen of Bethlehem, n. Y,
who married a relative of the testator
The one condition attached to the be-
quest was that the beneficiary should
become sober man and should con-
tinue sober for specified time. The
time was approaching for a settlement
of the estate, says the Christian Her
aid, ald the executors were preparing
to install the legatee and pay over the
legacy when news reached them that
he had INDUCED in a protracted drunk.
An investigation was made and the
news was confirmed. They according
ly laid before the surrogate the evil
dence of forfeiture and the bequest
was declared cancelled. How the
man must reproach himself for the
weakness and evil propensity which
have entailed upon him so heavy a
loss in money and property. 1t ought
to prove a lesson to him, and lead him
to reform, lest still more serious
calamity befall him, as the apostle
warns: "Know ye not that the un-
righteous shall not inherit the king
dom OF God? Be not deceived; neither
thieves, nor covetous, nor
drunkards shall inherit the
