SUPERSTITION.
become sou.

Superstition is long word. You
cannot cut it out with your knife,
but if you have keen edge on your
brain you can divide it into two
words. The first half is the Latin
word Super" meaning over, and the
second half is STARE" meaning
stand. Superstition is something
that has been left to stand over. If
a box came to you and you did not
know it was candy you might let it
stand over until it spoiled. Super
stition is a truth that people do not
understand and let it stand over un-
til it Spoils. Spoiled truth is super
stition.

A WORD ON ECONOMY.

1t is never safe to be economical
at table, and this is the form of
economy which attacks most people.
Because they are poor, they think
they must not eat. They save in one
direction and pour it out in another.
The doctor gets the money, and they
have the discomfort. A liberal diet
is form of economy-especially in
the kitchen. Underfed servants
nRve1 do good work. You don't get
youI moneys worth, and they are
never satisfied. Servants are very
bad subjects on which to practise
economy-they never understand. a
locked cupboard savors of meanness
and prompts petty thefts.

FED CROSSES ON THE MENU
cyspeptic Thought They Designated
Dishes That Had Been Approved
by His Predecessor.

The dyspeptic who gives prayerful
thought to every bite he eats sat
down at restaurant table and
glanced obviously over the French
menu card on which dozen items
were marked with cross in red ink.
ITO my untutored mind" said he,
those things sound all right Some
other fellow with a stomach has
been here ahead Of me and has
marked off the few things that a
Christian can eat without inviting
sudden DEATH"
In his delight at finding the din
ner problem thus providentially
solved the dyspeptic ordered six of
the red cross dishes. They were I'M
pronounceable and unacceptable,
but they tasted good and the man
liked them. When the last crumb Of
the last course had disappeared the
dyspeptic said genially to the waiter:
Rum old chap that must have
been that ate at this table ahead Of
me-"
Eyes, sir" asserted the waiter.
"He was one of them diet cranks
that drive restaurant people crazy
by marking up the bill of fare with
red danger signals before the dishes
that nobody that amt got sound
digestion dares to trife with"
Good Lordl" said the dyspeptic
and bolted for the nearest doctor

Fines Don't Cure

all CLUES OF Vne country ludI uhlilB
men for being drunk does not
contribute to the support of the
drunkard's family or hasten the re-
form of the man who is a victim of
an evil habit. A report says;
"Not long ago Police Judge
Stewart of Toledo passed a sentence
of two years in the workhouse on a
prisoner arraigned before him on
the charge Of habitual intoxication.
An erect figure with flashing eyes
strobe up to the judges bench with
the crisp statement: No man
should he arrested on the charge of
being drunk. He should be sent to
sanitarium, not to a workhouse.
He is suffering from disease, and
he won't be cured by being treated
like criminal.
"The speaker was Perry d. Knapp
who is chief of the Toledo police
department, and his words illus
tratts mother phase of the awaken
ing of the American city. Toledo
and Cleveland are only two of the
communities that are coming to see
that the 100000 arrests for drunk
enness in the United States every
year are neither decreasing the APP
petite for liquor nor in the majority
of cases adding to the protection of
the community"
There are men who indulge in
rowdyism and dissipation who ought
to be fined, but the average man
who is arrested for drunkenness is
the poor, hayward victim of re-
morseless habit, the abandoned piece
of drlftwood that has been tossed
upon the current.
If he has family and must pay
a fine they suffer more than he; if he
is to be imprisoned they will suffer
for the sin.
If he is disgraced by sentence
that puts him on the rock pile the
disgrace descends upon the boy who
bears his name, and the humiliation
is shared by the poor woman who is
the mother of that boy.
OF course if man is vicious, and
drinking is mere aid TO his vicious
ness, he ought to be fined and i'm
prisoned, but If he is the poor, un'
fortunate who surrenders his man
hood to his appetite he is already
punished enough by the pangs Of
remorse, and if there is any way tC
redeem him and make a new man oil
him it is the duty of the courts tc
provide that way.
And there is way.
1t has been demonstrated.
Even at the convict camps in
Pulaski county, where no treatment
is given, the very fact that men are
taken away from the places where
they got liquor and kept at good,
hard work, fed wholesome food and
restrained from INDUCING their APP
petites, the effects have been won.
derful.
What might no be accomplished
if the state had an institution where
this kind of men could get medical
treatment to restore lost nerve forces,
lost will power and manhood?
The sanitarium for the cantirmed
drunkard is becoming popular idea
in the cities of the country, and it
will not be many years until the
poor unfortunate wretch, victim of
habit and desire, will be treated for
the disease rather than made vic.
tim OF the laws mistakes.
