NAPOLEON LOVED SNUFF.
And No Punched the Boxes as Well a.
the Punesnt Dust

tire SunaoNf Ouot
Napoleon loved snuff: not only on the
battlefield but at home In the coun-
ell, he had recourse to the dust, esv
pec1ally when his schemes were I'M
favorabiy received and he wished to
hide his uneasiness or impotence. Un-
able to sit still In his elbow chair, he
would try in thousand ways to divert
attention from himself. and among
pther devices, as soon as he saw
members eye fxed on him would
hold out his arm and shake bis thumb
and forefnger, to signify that he wish
ed for a pinch OF SNUFF. Not less than
four, and even six, snuhboxes dis
appeared In this manner during sim
gle sitting, and It was not till he hisd
left the council chamber that he be-
came aware of the larceny. So con-
irmed was this habit that some OF the
councillors, whose snuffbOxes were
heirlooms or presents from foreign
princes, hit upon the expedient of car
rying cheap papier mache or wooden
boxes for the emperor to pocket The
snuffboxes, however, always return
ed to their owners and in doing so
were often found to have undergone
q very pleasant metamorphosis. BY
some necromancy wooden or tor
toise shell box, on coming out from the
imperial pocket, was usually trans
formed into one of gold, set around
with diamonds, or bearing the emper-
ors miniature on the lid.-William

EVERYTHING TO GAIN BY
NO VOTE
Don't Be Fooled BY the People That
Are Anxious to Get Drink and Get
1t Easily.

Excuse us for making the mistake
of putting a YES vote in your hand
and in the hands of your compatriots
when 1t should have been NO vote.
The reason for the slip Is the fact
that YES is a working microbe in the
heart and brain and blood of us (if
the question reads, retained as 1t isl
Brother Gardner can and does trust
the people. So can we-some kinds
of people. We can trust Brother
Gardner and others like him who
would bring no harm to the State,
but would lead it up to higher level.
But we would not trust those to
make our laws who would send our
prohibitory law to the limbo Of dead
and forgotten things that they may
ply their vocation of creating ap-
petites in the rising generation for
their particular brand of goods-the
generation that Is to be the hope or
the despair, the strength or the weak
ness of the nation. Neither would we
trust the making Of the law to those
whose highest aim Is to be getting a
drink and getting it easy. We would
fight those classes to the bats end,
simply because we think 1t right to do
so, whatever others may think or say.
That has not a feathers weight with
The Sun. however logical" he may
deem them, have wrought no change
in us. There Is a law of self de-
Tense. Does 1t apply to individuals
only? May a nation fight for its ex-
| istence only when the danger comes
In a tangible form that may be shot
at and punched? The entrenched sa-
loon is the most deadly enemy that
our nation has within its borders. but
gattling guns cannot be trained upon
it, neither can it be pumped full OF
| lead, and so the nation Is weak and
| helpless and is at the mercy of de-
stroyer that has no mercy. It's
puerile to prohibit and besides, II
would be tampering with personal
| liberty, which would never do at all
it being the biggest thing out. Poor
weak government 1t can handle the
Oil Trust, the Steel Trust, but not the
| Whiskey Trust, the manufacture and
the sale Can you tell the reason
why? Local option is about as weak
and senseless a way of handling the
difficult question that we have seen or
heard suggested even after hearing
/ from Rev. Mr.. Abbott. Buckfield
votes dry, Sumner, an adjoining town
votes wet. The dividing line is in
visible, not a Chinese wall. Bucktield
might as we'll vote wet and the
same with each alternate town
throughout the State, and there you
are-eternally damp, and the sellers
and drinkers and buns are in wet
paradise and Liberty's wing feathers
are full grown. The moulting sea-
son is a thing of the past-and yet
and yet, we are not at liberty to sci
an unmarked trap nor-er-spit on
the sidewalk and such although lib
erty is the greatest thing in the
world the price of which is eterna
vigilance.
