HOW THE COUNTRY IS GOING
DRY"

| In the past two years, and especial
ly In the year 1907, the country has
awakened to realize that we have a
"Prohibition Wave" Not until
Georgia and Alabama had gone dry
and prohibition had become the
main issue In the tangled politics OF
Kentucky, did the public in general
perceive It. Now, at the beginning
OF the year 1908. nearly one-half the
area OF the United States is dry; and
more than one-third OF our people
are living under prohibitory laws.
The movement has gone further and
faster in the South than anywhere
,else but II is unfelt only In the
Rocky mountain region and In the
central staes OF the Atlantic coast !.
Georgia is dry: Alabama has passed
a prohibitory law: Mississippi has
followed just as this article goev to
lpress. In Tennessee one can buy
llqour in but three small districts.
Kentucky has only four wholly wet
counties; Florida only a fringe along
lthe seacoasts: Texas Is more than
half dry; Missouri and Arkansas,
community by community, are fali-
ling into line; the election OF Janu-
larry II in Shreveport finished the
fmanufacture and sale" In the north
lern half OF Louisiana; II is highly
lprobable that within two years one
OR both OF the Carolinas will vote
for statewide prohibition Starting
from the seaboard at Georgia. one

.,orado or New Mexico and cross in
passage only one narrow strip OF wei

After the defeat and flight of Charles
I. the daredevil Duke of Buckingham
disguised himself as mountebank,
set up a stage in the heart Of London
and for days laughed in the faces of
the stern Puritans, who were thirsting
for his life. One. day when his own
sister, the beautiful Duchess of Rich
mond, was passing the jocular duke
set the mob on to drag her from her
carriage. They forced her to witness
the pranks of her brother, whom she
recognized, but could not betray.

Tho Widows Dover.

II is certain that DOVER" the estate
for life which the widow acquires at
her husbands death, was not known
among the early Saxons. In the laws
OF King Edmund the widow is directed
to be supported wholly out of the per
sonal estate. Dover is generally as
cribed to the\ e\Normans, but 1t was first
introduced into the feudal system by
Emperor Frederick H., who was con.
temporary with the English Henry Ill.
