II is very elaborate bottle contrl-
vance. Anyone seeing II wEl perceive
at once that It has been turned our
by some factory IN large quantities.
for the purpose for which II has been
used
More missionary Work Of the Same
4 Sort.
Every little while more proof OF the
same sort regarding the utterly diabii
ical character Of the liquor traffic IS
brought to our attention.
For example, the Anti-Sa'con Lea
que was furnished recently with
sample OF nursing bottle taten from
a boy, which was being distributed by
the saloon named on the tar. rms
was taken from a small boy ON Fourth
street Cincinnati Ohio, about Feb
ruary Is, 1906, by man who does
not want his name revealed. All the
howls that the saloon hell can raise,
together with its friends and abettors,
will not secure the name Of this man.
We exhibit IN this connection photo
graphic views of this bottle, which IS
lin our possession. 1t may be claimed
by the saloon that it was simply made
for general distribution and was not
intended for the hands Of
boys. 1t may be claimed that il was
Isimply an advertisement of this par
ticular saloon.
We would like to know how it is
that we discover these things only in
the hands of boys And will somebody
kindly inform us If this particular sa-
loon Is in the habit Of having glass
ware made for its OWN private use, and
that no other saloons use anything OF
the same sort We rather guess not.
| The very fact that there is such a
contrivanee at all shows that II IS
made for the trade. That II was taken
as late as Feb 5, 1906, shows il was
mot used at Christmas alone. The one
we got at Troy was not used at Christ
mas It was long after Christmas
that numbers were found in the hands
lot Troy boys

usually caught by such small devices
It is a thii,g calculated to tickle the
