Fewer Saloons but More Liquor
Made.

Washington, Aug. 17.-According
to the preliminary figures on the in
ternal revenue collections for the
fiscal year ending June 30, 1907, there
was collected from retail dealers in
liquors S96,937 less than in the prev
ious fiscal year. AS the retail liquor
license is s25, this means that there
We're approximately 1871 fewer sa-
looms in the United States at the
close of the last fiscal year than there
were the year before. This is almost
double the number closed last year.
The decrease in the number of IL
quor dealers does not show any cor
responding decrease in the amount
of intoxicants made, however, On the
other hand, there has been an in
crease. There were 1,993,6SS gallons
of spirits distilled from fruit during
the year, which is an increase of 212,-
4Oj gallons. There were 134,142,047
gallons of spirits made from other
products than fruits during the year,
which is an increase of l1,4O9, 25e gal

There is only one way to cure deaf

inflamed condition of the mucous lin

this tube is inflamed you have a rum

when it is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, aud unless the inflamma-

The Kentucky Taylor Governorship
regime got so used to issuing pardons
in advance to self-convicted criminals
while holding offices with mountain
militia, that the custom seems to be
yet advocated by the erstwhile mem
bership. Caleb Powers now wants a
pardon issued to w. S. Taylor before
the latter shall essay to cross over
into Kentucky. For what should Tay-
lor be granted a pardon? Haven't
the Republican leaders and newspa-
pers been telling us for 10 these seven
years that none of the accused conspir
ators to assassination was guilty ?Then
why should one of their number ask
a pardon for w. S. Taylor, the sup
posed leader of the conspiracy? If
Taylor is in no wise guilty, why
should he need a pardon?--why should
he fear conviction?

WHY WE DO SOME THINGS
IT Is Certainly Not Because We APP
pear to Advantage When
Doing Them.

A man does not take Off his
hat to lady because he looks
nicer without it, declares Gilbert
Chesterton, in the Illustrated
London News. The instance of
bald men would be alone suff-
Gent to upset such an explana-
ton.
He does 1t because you must
positively do something when
you meet a lady or your whole
civilization goes to pieces; and
taking off your hat is easier than
taking off your mecktie or lying
face downward on the pavement.
The primary point is that you
must do something; not that you
must do something beautiful.
And as long as cultivated people
cannot grasp this fact they will
find their efforts quite futile In
dealing with what they often
consider the dullness of the mid
die classes, or the vulgarity and
morbidity of the poor.
In SO far as the bourgeois
thinks it more important to wear
a Sunday hat than a. becoming
hat, he is perfectly fight. 1t is
more important; the religion of
the tribe is more important than
the pretty appearance of Mr..
Jones.
IN so far as the charwoman
thinks it more important that
her husband should have a
proper funeral than a pretty
funeral, she is perfectly right.
1t is more important; decorum is
as permanent a human senti-
ment as art, and a much more
pressing one. Any healthy saw
age would understand the char
woman's sentiments exactly, and
perhaps alarm her with demon
strations of barbaric approval.
He would also understand per-
fectly the sentiment of Sunday
hat. ! believe in savages myself !;
] think that in a great many
matters they represent the en-
during common sense and moral
minimum of humanity. There is
nothing which I so sincerely re-
spect in sayages as their wide
spread and generally ascertained
disposition to wear top hats.
