THE SECULAR PRESS
which few years ago was almost
silent on the temperance reform,
has during the past year, from Bos-
ton to San Francisco discussed the
subject onder conspicuous head
lines and given columns of editorial
and Unprecedented space in their
influential columns to the good
cause.

the popular delusious in regard to
the harmlessness and healthfulness

is not stimulant, but a narcotic
poison; and leading physicians are
giving startling facts to show its
dreadful effects in the production
of disease.
THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH
has always given clear and ringing
deliverances against the drink hab-

LIFE FUNNY PROPOSITION.

An exchange solves the problem of
life in this way: Man comes into this
world without his consent and leaves
against his will. During his stay on
earth his time is spent in one continu-
GUS round of contraries and misunder-
standings by the balance of the species.
In his infancy, he is an angel; in his
boyhood, he is the devil; in his young
manhood, he is everything from to-
lizard; in his dotage he is fool, if he
raises family he is a chump, ii he
raises small check he is thiei and
then the Jaw f1ises the devil with him.
If he is poor man, he is bad man
ager, if he is rich he is dishonest, if he
is in politics he is Il CRATER, if he is out
of politics you cart place him and he
is an undesirable citizen, if he is in a
church he is h'Ipocrite, if he is out Of
church he is sinner and is damned, if
he donates to foreign missions he does
it for show, if ne doesn't then he is
stingy. When he first comes into
the world everybody wants te kiss him,
but before he goes out they all want to
kick him. If he dies young there was
a great future before him, if he lives to
a ripe old age he is simply trying to
save funeral expenses. Life is funny
road, but we all like to travel it just
the same.

How to Keep Honey.

Honey should always be stored in a
warm place. II kept where it will be-
come cold it often graduates or, as the
process is more commonly described,
candied. Amateurs often place the
produce of their hives In cool location
and are surprised at the result. When
liquid honey has graduated, says Sub
urban Rife, 1t may be restored to its
former condition by placing the re-
ceptacie In which 1t Is contained in a
dish of hot water. Many people who
buy liquid honey at the stores believe
that the honey has been adulterated IL
they find 1t graduated. As a matter
of fact, this is one of the best tests of
its purity. A bottle of so called honey
which has been largely adulterated
with glucose will granulate but very
little. OF course it does not follow
that because the honey is not found to
be graduated it is not pure. for If kept
In warm place honey will often con-
tinue for long time perfectly clear.
AS matter of fact, under the new
pure food laws there is comparatively
little danger of purchasing adulterated
honey. Comb honey has never been
adulterated. in spite of the assertions
to that effect which often have APP
peared in print The food value of
honey ought to be better known. 1t
can be used TO great advantage In
cooking and can be especially recon-
mended as substitute for sugar. as it
places almost no tax on the kidneys.

EDUCATIONAL MISTAKE.

Madison Democrat: President W ood-
row Wilson is candid and, withal, SEN
sible when he points to some of the mis-
takes in the modern educational system.
1--WE are allowing ourselves to be con-
fused with a multitude of differing
tasks and are following no single stand
ard. = Also he notes the tendency in
the schools, especially in the Universe
ties, to vary with the passing breezes,
to do everything by starts and nothing
long, for he says again: 1.-The courses
provided in our public schools and in
our colleges have become a perfect
miscellany without order and without
standard. 1t is not possible with our
crowded curriculum to give real disci-
pine in any subject in any school"
This de".a alton by so notable an au-
thority is refreshing in it's frankness.
When educators arrive at the point
where they discover the defects of their
system there may be assurance that
methods win soon be changed. Ger
tainly there is great confusion at the
present time. A period of transit
seems to prevail and uncertainty con-
trolls. The old school, the persistent
grind of facts, has given away some
what, and philosophy seeks larger
place; but with the transition has come
a bewilderment that President Wilson
is wise to recognize. The unfortunate
condition applies not to the universities
and higher institutions of learning
alone but to the public schools, partic-
ularly the high schools; and it is whole
some indication indeed when prominent
educators become conscious of the situa-
ton.

GREAT is WISCONSIN AND HER cows.

A total of $57, 600, 900 of annual re-

914, 900 cows contributing more than
8, 166, 900, 900 pounds of milk annually to
1925 cheese factories, ereameries and

value such are the figures that give an
inadequate notion of Wisconsin condi-
tons as to the extent of her dairy in
dustry first in the number of cheese
factories, first in the number of cream
cries; first in the combined number of
cheese factories and creameries; first
in the total aggregate for butter and
its byproduets; second only to the Empire
state in the total aggregate for cheese
and its byproducts; second only to the
all dairy products, including byproducts,
with Iowa as third, Illinois as fourth,
Minnesota as fifth and Pennsylvania as
sixth, exceeding the combined total
aggregate Of all dairy products and
byproducts of Iowa and Minnesota by
more than 50, 600, 900 and of Illinois ana
Pennsylvania by more than SIS, 600, 600

RETIRED BUSINESS MAN
FAvORS NEW THEORY
E. III. Lambert, of Everett, Massachusetts,
Believes Stomach the Seat of Life.

One OF the most interesting state
ments made recently concerning the
much discussed Cooper theory, that
has spread over the cCaptry during the
past year, is made by l., VI. Lambert,
. retired business man, whose home is
at 115 Francis Street. Everett, Mas
Mr.. Lambert has this to say in con-
nection with Cooper and his medi-
cines: Some time ago / read an ar
ticle about this man Cooper, in which
he claimed that stomach trouble was
directly responsible for most i'll health.
He went on to say that. although his
medicine did nothing but set the stom.
ach in sound conostion. it wonld, in
many cases, remove kidney and liver
trouble and various other ailments
He argued from this that the stomach
was the main cause of sickness. and
stated that the success he has had
with his medicines was due entirely
to this fact.
Il am now fully convinced that this
theory is correct. and believe Cooper|
has a really remarkable medicine
judging from my own experience.

MORE sIpE.TRAcK TROUBLE.

Since the new Newry siding was put
in the people of that little berg cannot
get any freight there or get the train
to stop at all, so we are informed.
just what the reason is for this we are
unable to state, but it seems that all
the company agreed to do was to put
in the siding and leave it until it be-
came necessary to use it. Whether or
not they will be compelled to stop there
remains to be seen. -Cashton Record.
Wisconsin has railroad commission
that is empowered to adjust differences
of this nature, and there need be no
fear that Newry people win not have
their interests properly and rightfully
protected.

How to Care For the Linen Press and
Its Contents.

How to Care For the Linen Press and
Its Contents.
No good housekeeper peglects the
linen press, and the care of it is one of
the most important of housewifely
duties. The best form of linen press
is a narrow one from front to back, so
that when opened all the contents are
exposed to view, with no second row
of things hidden away behind 1t is a
serious mistake to keep linen con
stantly in a hot air cupboard, for.
though 1t is thus always aired and
ready for use, yet it win become dis
colored and the edges turn brown if
30 kept.
Many people nowadays discard linen
sheets altogether. preferring cotton
ones, while others keep them only for
the summer months, using cotton in
winter. as being warmer.
In mendiug household linen the most
satisfactory way to do is to mend it
before 1t is sent to the laundry, not
when 1t returns starched and ready
for use once more, says the Philadel-
phia Press.
IL thin piece or hole is observed
while the article is in use it should be
put aside and either darned or patched
at the first opportunity.
Tableclotils invariably begin to weaT
at the middle and in the side creases
In which they are folded. When this
is TIE case the edges Of one side of
the cloth should be turned in and neat
~ stitched to form a hem about an
inch In width. BY this means the
folds in the cloth will come In fresh
lines and the place of the old crease
will have a new lease of life.
When n cloth is removed from the
table 1t should be put into press
and tightly screwed down until want
ed
IL a sheet Is hemstitched 1t should
be done at botn ends. If only one end
Is so worked the wear and tear will
come always in the same place, as the
sheet can only be used one way, with
the hemstitching at the top.
Once year 1t is very good plan to
devote whole day to going over the
linen stock and to make renewals
Were necessary.
1t is mistake to allow the supply
of any one article to run too low, for
the replenishing of the entire stock at
one time means a somewhat heavy
item of expense. 1t is much better to
make periodical additions.
When new pillowslips with buttons
are bought, the buttons should be ex-
amined. If these are of metal covered
with linen. remove them at once Use
those made bs folds of linen only
Stor.s which are not in current use
may be wrapped in cloth and placed
on the upper shelves of the press. The
German "hausfrau" keeps broad EN-
broidered bands, which she slips
around her spare sets of linen.
