from taxation and immune from
prosecution in dry territories.
In giving out the opinion of u e
Court, Judge Festus Walters de-
clared that, no matter what tie
percentage Of alcohol held in solu.
tion in a malt beverage, it lie still
a malt liquor and therefore it's sale
is prohibited in dry territory
Certain dealers in Temperance
beers" were arrested in Ports
mouth and fined by Judge A. Il.
Blair, an appeal being taken from
his decision.
Judge Walters holds that the
constitution Of Ohio does not
legalize the liquor traffic, and that
the Rose law expressly forbids the
sale of liquor in Scioto County.
That law is constitutional under
the police power of the state to
regulate the traffic.
He quoted q decision of the Au-
ditor Of State compelling Dayton
dealer in "near beer" to pay the
Akin tax. the Supreme Court
having ruled that the matter of
alcohol percentage had no bearing
upon malt beverages. In that in
stance it was successfully proved
that the stuff was non tox ca ting.
In one of the cases before the Cir
cult Court it was shown that one
of the defendants had taken out a
Federal license, the possession of
the same being prima facia evil
dence under the Rose law that b e
was selling Intoxicating bever-
ages.
Considered from all viewpoints
this ruling would seem to extin-
guish the last hvpe of the "neer"
beer dealers to continue in busi-
ness.
The State Dairy and Food De
partment liquor tax inspectors
have not been paying any atten-
tion to this class of fluid described
that containing less than one
half of one per cent of alcohol
This ruling will therefore cause
change.
The same Court reversed Judge
Blair's finding, in question of
agency, that has an important
bearing. One Abraham Mayer, of
Portsmouth, took two orders for
whisky, signed by fellow residents,
and forwarded them to Cincinnati
wholesale house, together with
the money. When the whisky
was shipped to Portsmouth Mayer
received it in bulk at his place
The purchasers were notified and
came and took it away.
Judge Blair held that he was an
agent for the seller and found him
guilty under the Rose law. The
Circuit Court finds to the con-
trary, holding that the statement
of fact shows Mayer to be the
agent of the purchasers, as he had
no title or profit in the transac-
tion, and was, therefore, not a
traflicker.

THE HOME CARE OF MILK.

One of the placards displayed in a
dairy car of a demonstration train in
California was as follows:
The most perfect milk can be
quickly and easily spoiled.
The first matter of importance is
that our milk should be kept at a uni
formly low temperature from the mo-
ment it is received until it is used,
preferably at about forty degrees
Fahrenheit.
No milk can be properly kept with
out the use of ice in hot weather.
1t is never safe to open milk and
cream, and after removing part Of it,
leave the jar uncovered, expose the
milk in open pitchers, or return any
that has been exposed in pitchers
again to the original Jar.
1t is never well to keep milk or
cream that has once been opened in
a refrigerator that contains other
foods. -.
1t is never wise to expose milk or
cream to the usual air of the kitchen,
the pantry or the nursery, except for
such time as is necessary to obtain
what is needed for immediate use
1t is very unwise to put milk into
any vessel or pitcher that has been
washed in dishwater and wiped with
kitchen cloth. Vessels to be en-
ployed for milk should be boiled in
clean water and left for use unwiped.
Selected.

WHERE THE LIEGE BALKs.

Miss Florence Allen was surprised
because a husband who called at the
Woman's building at the exposition
could not describe his wife, says the
Seattle P.-I How many husbands
can describe their wives? An opin-
ion in two words may be ventured,
Not many.
Certainly the average man could
not tell what kind of dress or hat his
wife wears, and probably if he at
tempted to do any such thing, his
wife would contradict him when she
found out what he said; the husbands
description of the wife's habiliments
couldn't be anything but cold slander,
from the wife's standpoint.
OF course he might say that her
eyes were blue, or brown, or black,
and had the light of heaven in them;
that her voice was soft, seraphic, and
as musical as the orioles; that her
hair was far or a Spanish jet; tina,
her form was so divinely fashioned
that both Psyche and Venus should
be at her feet; but not many women
would recognize her from the hus-
bands description, even if they lib
orally discounted the persiflage, for
they could never fit such language
to a beefy blonde of a cadaverous
brunette.
Not many men can accurately de-
scribe their wives, for their descrip-
tions must be marred by overpraise,
in some instances, and underpraise In
others, at least from the standpoint OF
those who might be called upon to
identify the picture.
And the prudent husband, who val
ues the peace of his own hearthstone
and the hair of his head, would not
attempt the hopeless and dangerous
task Of describing the kind, cut or
color of his wife's dress, hat or other
exterior adornments. On all such is-
sues prudence will commend the ag-
nostic's answer to life's greatest rid
die.

GOOD NEWS FROM PANAMA.

The latest official report from Pam
anna gives some very reassuring facts
regarding the question of seepage Of
water through the ground in the
neighborhood of the Gatum dam. 1t
will be remembered that in the con-
trovery over this dam, NJ. Bunau-Va-
rilla and others claimed that the head
Of eighty-five feet of water in the
Gatum dam would probably produce a
heavy seapage, If not through the body
of the dam itself, then through the
underlying material of the valley bot
tom on which the dam was built. The
engineers of the canal, on the other
hand assert that not only will the body
of the dam itself, which is to be de-
posted automatically, be so compact
as to preclude any possibility Of seep-
age, but that the subsoil in the valley
is naturally impervious or practically
so, to water.
Partial confirmation of the engi-
neers' statements is now afforded by
the conditions which have developed
during the excavating of that portion
of the canal which lies between the
Gatun locks and the sea, where one
of the steam shovels has reached a
depth of 32 feet below sea level. The
excavation in which the shovels are
at work is kept dry by four 8-inch
pumps, and ordinarily these pumps
are not run at their full capacity
When It is considered that dixie, q
few feet in thickness only, keeps the
water in the old French canal from
flowing into the trench; that the sea
is within two miles of the excavation;
and. Furthermore, that the Mindi riv-
err flows within a few hundred yards
Of the ditch, we are quite in agree
ment with the engineers that there
has been surprisingly little seepage
into the excavation since the work
was carried below sea level" Dur
ing the latter part Of June, the shovel
on the lowest level was obliged to sus-
pend for a few days on account of
the inability Of the pumps to throw
out water that was coming in this,
however, proved TO be onlny a tenn
porary condition, and the shovels
were soon able to resume work. It
does not take an engineer to under
stand the significance Of these facts
as bearing upon the security Of the
Gatun dam Scientific American.
