CONGENIAL WORK

Like many other girls alone in a

For breakfast It was mush, greasy
meat, soggy cakes, black coffee, etc.
AFTER a few months Of this diet I
used to feel sleepy and heavy in the
mornings. My work seemed a ter.
rible effort, and I thought the work was
to blame-too arduous.

Bismarck, Feb. 25.-Did the prohibi-
ton people weaken when it came to
the final test? Were they sincere
when it came down to the abolition Of
the druggists permits? These and
other questions r being asked today
as a result of the report Of the house
temperance committee on the McCrea
bill, 283. This provides for the con
tinuance Of the drug permit system,
but removed the power Of granting it
from the county to the district judges
and places the limit on the sale to n
one person any n day at a half pint.
Members of the legislature had ex-
pressed favor for the Macarthur bill,
wiping out drug permits entirely, till
the arrival of the W.. C. T. U. and
other temperance workers, and they
appear not to want the boards swept
clean. The change to district judges
is thought to be a wise provision. If
the permits are to be continued.
The house temperance committee
also reported f%avorably on Gardens
bill, 331, which prevents giving liquor
to Indians.
