The guessing contest at the Water,

Miss Margaret Laws and to John
Lindstrom, boy, who lives at 23s3
Cedar street. The prize Of beautiful
doll was offered to the one that guess
cd nearest to the number Of shot IN
a tumbler. In the tumbler were 2063
shot; Miss Laws guessed 2036, and
the boy guessed 2060, his guess being
within three of the number. But in
looking over the written slips an err
ror was made in relation to his guess;
he had written his street address more
prominently than the number Of his
guess, and hence by inadvertance his
street number was taken as his guess
and the prize awarded to Miss Laws,
Later the error in the Lindstrom
guess was discovered and then he,
too, was givena prize,

he is better without it. In medicine
the tendency is to give dry powers
rather than solutions of medicine in
alcohol.
Where the mother uses alcohol
to any extent, 80 per cent of her chill
dren are born ~epileptics, and so per
cent where the father is subject to
alcoholism. A life insurance company
showed by statistics that the percent
age of death among those who did
not use alcohol was so per cent less
than expected, while on the other
hand with those who used 1t the per-
centage of deaths was much more
than they had calculated.
One or the great troubles about
alcohol is the social feature of it
the tendency OF regarding it as manly
to tai a drink or taking a drink just
to show you r a good fellow. This
Is the way many begin who would not
otherwise have started up"

THE DANGER FROM
DRINKING LIQUORS

DRINKING LIQUORS.
From Ell Paso Daily Herald.
At the Westminster Presbyterian
church Sunday DIR. F.. P. Miller adj
dressed the Young Peoples Society
OF Christian Endeavor on the subject
of how to promote total abstinence.
He said in part:
IF you AXE an egg and subject it
to the vapors of alcohol and then
Cause it to be Matched the chicken
will be deformed. fl you take frogs
eggs the same is the case, and so
on through the whole animal kingdom
1T is said that a man is brighter
from using alcohol and that his mind
is clearer. 1t is true that his imag1-
nation is stimulated, but his mind is
weakened. Notice the tremor OF the
subject of alcoholism when he is
about to write. It is a mistake to
give beer to a person thinking it will
improve his physical condition, for
