Belle Elmore, DR.. Crippen's missing

years later they came to live with mo

TOAST TO PRESIDENT.
Mrs. Stevens Sees No Objection to It II
Intoxicants Are Not Used.

Portland, Me, July 31.-A dispatch
from New York last night states THAI
Ambassador Whitelaw Reid, United
States minister to the Court OF ST.
James advocates the adoption in this
country of the custom of drinking to
the health Of the sovereign, and fol-
lowing the form of exclamation used in
England, The King, God bless him"
repeat. "The President God bless him.
Mr.. Reid is reported as saying, we
cannot deny that toasts to the two
great heads of the states of the English
speaking world are coming to be drunk
with the same loval and patriotic hope
for the continued sovereignty of the
law"
Relative to the suggested adoption
of the custom in this country, Mrs.
Lillian VI. n. Stevens. president of
the National w. c. T. L., and who as
vice president at-large of the World s
w. G. r. L., presided at some of the
sessions of the recent convention in
Glasgow. in an interview last evening
gave out the following statement:
"I certainly think our President is
entitled to as much honor and as
much good health as the king or queen
of any country. | should depiore
the introduction of the custom of
drinking to the health of the President.
unless II were to be done without the
use of intoxicating beverages. 1t man
ifeetly would be out of place to drink
to the health of President Taft in
alcoholic liquors since he has himself
set the example of total abstinence at
public functions. Very likely Mr.. Reid
did not have in mind alcoholic drinks,
for | know that some of the King s
subjects in high positions are true to
their total abstinence principles. and
] have never heard that royal dis
pleasure has thereby been encOurag ged. ."
