THE SALOON IN
VIGNETTE

The New York Tribune, in an edi-
toral which is probably not at all in
tended for that purpose, gives start
lingly clear vgnette of the anarchistic
character of the average saloon when
it says:
By deliberately and boastfully dodg
ing the command of the electorate
dealers must bring upon their trade
the enmity of MANY citizens who,
though tolerant toward respectable
saloons, set their faces sternly against
the saloonkeeper who mocks law and
public opinion. When he operates in
a small community, where his meth
DDS and their results are clearly Wis
ible and observed by virtually the
whole population, he invites his best
friends to turn against him. The
strange thing is that he has been blind

themselves drank and furnished liquor
for others to drink The Meas says that
possibly these were brave old days" but
that "a majority of the people of this
country are not so inclined to believe"
1t adds:
The liquor league may prove
George Washington a sot, Abraham
Lincoln a saloonkeeper, Theodore
Roosevelt an inebriate, and all the
other illustrious sons of America the
patrons and supporters of the perver
sion of the liquor traffic, and it will
not change public sentiment one Jot or
title The American saloon must
either reform or it must go.

as much alcohol as lager beer, and sell
it to thirsty people before it gets old
enough to use. That's why Maine has
held on to Prohibition The farmers
have built up hard cider business in
rural communities that is almost as
profitable as a small country saloon
Under state laws of protection they
are doing we'll
This is highly interesting in view of
the fact that according to the returns OF
the United States Census, Maine makes
Ii $40 barrels of cider in year, or about
one barrel for every five farmers in the
state 1t is hardly remarkable that the
writer of the letter concluded to remain
behind the shadow of anonymousness.

THE CHAIN GANG

The Atlanta Georgian, commenting
upon the fact that, while in the old days
Atlanta used to have an average of IT'S
men in the city prison and available for
street work. it now never has more than
forty or fifty, says:
Is there any man in Georgia so low
so depraved that he says: Give us
back the criminals, fill up the cham
gang" Where are you, de
PRAYED one, that mourns the fact that
we are embarrassed by 4 lack of Grim

ABOUT HUGHES

The Buffalo Courier, commenting upon
the efforts of Governor Hughes of the
state of New York to suppress racetrack
gambling, refers, perhaps very unkindly
and with mean animus, and yet very
pertinently, to the attitude of the gov
ernor upon other moral questions. 1t
says:
For other reforms, the correction of
other and greater evils, he has shown
no concern. Mr.. Hughes has not been
heard advocating Prohibition, or local
option, or the closing of the bucket
shops, or even the suppression of that
festive poker game at which a belated
patriot who reached the Senate Cham

FEEDING FOR HEALTH
Directions by Food Expert

A complete change in food makes a
complete change in the body. Therefore
if you are ailing in any way, the surest
road back to health is to change your
Diet. Try the following breakfast for
ten days and mark the result
Two soft boiled eggs, (if you have a
weak stomach, boil the eggs as follows:
put two eggs into a pint tin cup Of boil
ing water, cover and set off the stove
Take out in nine minutes; the whites
will be the consistency of cream and
partly digested Don't change the direc-
tons in any particularly, some fruit,
cooked or raw, cooked preferred, slice
of toast, little butter, four heaping tea
spoonfuls of Grape-Nuts with some
cream, cup of properly boiled Postum
Food Coffee
The Grape Nuts breakfast food is fully
and scientifically cooked at the factory,
and both that and the Postum have the
diastase (that which digests the starchy
part) developed in the manufacture.
Both the food and the coffee, therefore,
are predigested and assist, in a natural
way, to digest the balance of the food.
Lunch at noon the same.
For dinner in the evening use meat
and one or two vegetables. Leave out
the fancy desserts. Never over-eat. Bet
ter a little less than too much
If you can use health as a means to
gain success in a business or in a pro-
fession it is we'll worth the time and att
tention required to arrange your diet
to accomplish the result. Read The
Road to MELVILLE" in pkgs. There, S.
Reason"
Ever read the above letter? A new
one appears from time to time. They
are genuine, true, and full of human
interest.

lieves that the efforts of the liquor in
terests to bolster their tottering fortunes
with the name of Lincoln are not likely
to prove successful 1t says:
The brewing interest has taken the
trouble to secure Photographic and
printed evidence of fact long familiar
to well-informed people that Abra
ham Lincoln once sold liquor in Hi
nois. Although it will be difficult for
anybody to appreciate the value of the
showing, the disclosure as to Lincoln's
early occupation is to be used as IAN
argument against Prohibition
If nothing better than this is to be
said against Prohibition the liquor
trade is doomed root and branch.
1t may be doubted whether all
this will have any effect beyond exas-
peration upon the people who have
their attention fixed upon the modern
saloon and the forces which act upon
it and through it Abraham Lincoln
never had anything to do with an in
stitution of that kind, and the effort
of the brewers to make it appear that
he did is likely to react upon hem, as
have some of their other follies.

NAMES CIDER

The Buffalo Evening Ne10s gives
prominent position to an anonymous let
ter against Prohibition in which the
writer, who INDUCES in mass of other
misrepresentation, says:
Maine farmers are pretty thrifty
people and are able to put much money
in savings banks when, under the laws
of their state, they can convert their
apples into hard cider, containing twice

ARREST MADE IN REID CASE
Charles Burke Seventeenth Person
to Be Taken Into Custody.
Police Say lie Made Remark About
drinking Up Reid's Money
10 a COIOred Woman.

The seventeenth arrest in connection
with the Henry ". Reid murder case was
made last night. when Charles Burke.
col0Ted. twenty-four years old, of 2l5 X
street northwest, was taken into custody
by Policemen Brooks and Stuart, Of the
substation IN Anacostia.
Burke was arrested by the policemen
at Seventh and 0 streets northwest. Yes
terday tho police received information
lhat Burke had mentioned TO a colored
woman that he and a friend had had a
great time drinking up Reid's money"
Whether the man was referring TO money
belonging to some person other than the
murdered saloon keeper is not known.
Efforts were made 10 locate the woman
with whom Burke is alleged to have had
the conversation.
Coroner Nevitt announced that to-mor-
row he will resume the hearing OF wit
Hesses in connection with the inquest, 10
determine who was responsible for the
killing Of Reid. A preliminary hearing
was held at the morgue January q, when
the coroneT's jury were sworn in and an
autopsy performed on the body. AT that
time three witnesses were heard, but
since then the police have succeeded in
locating seven more witnesses, who will
probably throw some light on the case.
