WHAT 1T COSTS.
Working People Have to Take Care Of
Paupers and Criminals.

The estimate of the cost OF taking
care of the helpless poor and the de-
cidedly vicious classes presents some
startling figures. The figures run
much higher when we count the cost
of buildings, the salaries of officials
and the loss of the productive energy
which ought to be adding to the re-
sources of the community.
The pauper and the criminal, If en-
gagged in honest industry, would be
adding to the common wealth. AS it
is, there is that much which they fail
to contribute, and then the other
workers have to support them at a
cost which sometimes Is felt to be
heavy. Indeed, If men who now rail
at those who seem to have greater
wealth than they were to study the
matter more closely they would see
that the indolent pauper and the Grim
inal are burdens to the poor man.
Directly or indirectly the industri.
Gus working people are required to
help support those who wilf-not work
and others whom it is not safe to have

ever in eating the bread they have
not earned, and so the expenses of the
industrious are made needlessly large
to support the idlers, the incompetent
and the reckless.
In these days, when the wealth OF
the rich excites so much envy, and
when the extravaganza of many calls
out rebukes from the working people
we must not forget that the burdens
or the workers do not come from that
source, or not alone from that source
but from people who have nothing and
who earn nothing.

II They're from London.

In his elegant evening dress the
young man hurried slightly.
These English clothes are very
smartly cut" he said, "but their text
ure Is so light and fiimsy that they
must be pressed after every wearing,
they bag and wrinkle so-and, above
all, there is no warmth in them"
He ordered a steaming drink.
Learn a lesson from mel" he re-
sumed, IF you ever buy evening
clothes In London, insist on a heavy
cloth. a winter cloth. Our town sea-
son, our season for dances and balls
and what-not. Is the winter, and our
evening clothes are made of winter
cloth. The English town season is
the summer, the months of May, June
and July, and hence English evening
clothes are made of summer cloth.

is warned In time, makes summer

DRUNkARD AS A FUN MAKER.
No Longer Are Their Antics Tolerate d
in Decent Society.

There has been quite a change of
late In the tastes of many of the peo-
pie. They are not so much enter
tanned by the pranks and the sayings
OF the drunkard as they once were.
There have been times when the be-
fuddled, staggering. yelling creature
who was trying to get to his home ex-
cited the merriment of the people who
saw him on his way.
His vagaries, as represented by the
comic performer on the stage, were re-
garded as overwhelmingly funny.
1t is very hopeful sign OF the i'm
provement of the public taste, says
Temperance. when we find that the an.
tics and the jests of the drunkard
have ceased to be as amusing as they
once were.
There has been a general improve
ment in the public taste in other d.
rections.
Once the babbling of lunatics and
their erratic behavior attracted peo-
pie to the jails where the mad folk
were then detained.
1t is said that 1t added much to the
joys Of visit to Boston to go over
the old Cambridge Jail and have a
laugh at the odd things the crazy peo-
pie did and said there.
He would be regarded to-day as a
lunatic himself who could find en-
joyment in watching deranged people.
We may hope that the growth Of
good taste, not to speak of any high
er principle. may become so strong
that the drunkard will cease altogeth-
er to be a fun maker.
When you consider the heights from
which one falls when he becomes a
drunkard, and the degradation of his
manhood; when you think of the risks
he runs. not knowing to what awful
deeds he may be tempted while the
intoxication lasts-you will not find
yourself moved to laughter. but rather
to tears, as you look at him.

MILLIONS OF LIVES LOST
The Awful Toll Collected Nv Con-
sumption

If people could only understand
that Catarrh is an internal scrofula-
that nothing applied externally does
much good-they would not need TO
be warned SO often about this fatal
disease, which, when neglected, in
variably ends up in consumption, at
the cost of millions of lives every
year. Yet Catarrh is easily cured if
the right treatment as employed
Catarrh is caused by germs in the
blood which circulate throughout the
entire system. External remedies
give but temporary ease. Although
the effects are often seen In the form
of pimples, rash, eczema or dry, scaly
skin. the trouble Is internal and can
never be cured by external remedies.
Tue only way TO cure Catarrh is by
employing medicine which Is abb
sorbed and carried by the blood to
all parts of the system, so that the
mucous membrane or internal lining
of the body is thoroughly medica ed,
soothed, disinfected of germ matter
and the soreness healed.
We have a remedy prepared from
the prescril ton of physician who
for thirty years studied and made
Catarrh speciality and whose record
of success was a cure in every case
where his treatment was followed as
prescribed That remedy is Rexall
Mucu-Tone We are so positive that
1t will cure Catarrh in all its various
forms, whether acute or chronic, that
we promise to return every penny
paid us for the medicine in every case
where ii fails to cure or for any rea-
son does not satisfy the user
We want you to try ReXall Mucu-
Tone on our recommendation and
guarantee. We are right here where
you live and you do not contract any
obligation or risk when you try Rex
all Mucu-Tone on our guarantee.
We have Rexall Mucu-Tone in two

Drink the Greatest National Menace

Il have been made a teetotaler,"
said a United States senator not long
ago, "by the sight of the hangers-on
of the average saloon. Every average
class saloon has a clientele OF poor
wretches whose appetite for drink has
got the better of them. Many of these
unfortunates have still more unfor-
tunate families dependent upon them.
The total aggregate of these human
wrecks is much greater than the ma
tons standing army. This is too
great a price to pay for the privilege
OF what is known as personal liberty.
II had my way, I would abolish the
liquor traffic, root and branch. II, Is
the nations greatest curse, and no
amount of specious reasoning can
overturn the evidenced truth Of such
an assertion"
