The Battle for Ohio.

In The Circle Magazine for April,
Hugh G. Weir, presents fairly both
sides of the temperance fight in Ohio.
Some will ask, writes Mr.. Wier, how
can a law which is not equitable be
enforced without strife and rebellion
and even blood shed ? And, again,
this-will not a State unsettled as
this would be react against business
sta oility and prosperity? Will 1t not
deter new investments and limit old
ones? A formidable circle of ques.
tions these. What facts will the cate
chism show A State, part saloon
ridden, part saloonless-and that State
one of the largest in the Union from
the triple standpoint of industry, pop
ulation, and area-what has been the
effect, what will be the effect of this
division?
The most logical answer is the APP
parently contradictorYstatement that
the very fact of the division is the
lever which will eventually force Ohio
into the ranks of prohibition. A
county which sees its neighbor reduc-
ing its tax rate by one and two and
three mills while it's own is, perhaps,
increasing, which sees its own crime
records grow TO double those of the
county next door with less than half
of its population, which sees the busi-
ness of the town twenty miles away
increase by 80 per cent. while its own
with difficulty maintains its normal
level-such county is very apt to in
quire into the reason for the differ
ence. And the answer is given in one
word-saloons. Its neighbor has
eliminated the sale of whisky. Will
prohibition then produce these re-
suits
Mr.. Weir then proceeds to give
statistics showing that in the coun-
ties where the saloons have been voted
out that the tax rate is lower and
fewer crimes are committed than in
counties where there are saloons.
Also that the per capita wealth in
the "dry" counties is larger than In
the wet" and that business men uni
versallV report business improved
after the saloons have been voted out.

Frazler's Feathered Friends.

Mr.. Orange Frazer, who deVotes
quite good bit of his spare time to
the study of ornithology, has two very
good photographs of a black cap
chickadee, which he made recently
at his home on East Main street.
During the past winter he has patient
lY tanned the little bird to eat morsels
of nuts from his hand, and so accus-
toned to being fed is the chickadee
that he will fly to the window of Mr..
Frazer's room, perched upon the win
dow sash and peck persistently until
the desired food is Forthcoming. One
of the photographs shows the bird
sitting on the sash pecking the glass,
and the other shows the feathered
pensioner busily engaged at pecking
bit of food from between Mr..
Frazier's thumb and finger, with
apparently no more conceen than If
eating out in the Wilmington
Democrat.

Automobile association even went so

Library Slip Plan.

Many of the largest manufacturers
in this country are now using what Is
known as the Library Slip Plan. In
each package of their product is
placed a coupon having value de-
pendent on the priece of goods. These
coupons in purchasing books, maga-
zines and papers are the same as
money.
We have Just entered into a con-
tract with the Magazine & Book Co
of New York city, whereby we have
the exclusive privilege of this plan
for this city. Commencing with next
week we will publish coupon which
will be worth one-half cent. At the
same time will appear list of all
products in which will be found

The irrepressible land hunger of
the past decade, would appear to be
on the increase the past month or
two. In this portion of the state,
activity in land movement is particu-
larly noticeable. North and south and
west, where the demand grows more
and more excessive, the prices con-
tinue to mount. There are most
substantial reasons for this activity
in land. During the past ten years,
the earning capacity of the farm has
been largely increased by strong de-
mand, which Lhas made an excellent
market and there does not appear to
be any likelihood of over production
and any serious market break. Then,
the wealth of this country is lncreas-
ing at rapid pace and as this occurs,
opportunity for investment safe and
promising Is more difficult to find.
Land, well bought, is the best security
of all, and offers the surest guaranty
of accumulation.

Highland Terrace Notes.
MARY's LITTLE FIRM.

Mary had little farm
As level as the floor
She placed on 1t fancy price,
And struggled to get more.
She kept the land until one day
The country settled up,
And where wilderness had been
She grew bumper crop. y
Then Mary rented out her land,
She would not sell you know,
And waited patiently about
For prices still to grow.
They grew as population came,
And Mary raised the rent;
With common food and raiment now
She could not be content.
She built her up mansion fine,
Had bric.a-brac galore
And every time the prices rose,
She rose the rent some more.
What makes the land keep Mary so, I"
The luckless people cry;
"Why Mary keeps the land you knowp'
The wealthy ones reply.
And so, each one of you might be
Wealthy refined and wise"--
If you would only buy some land
And hold 1t for the rise.
Moral--Buy lot and build a house
in Highland Terrace.
