DRUNKNESS AS A DISEASE

Much wit was wasted last year upon the proposal to olimit the number of times man could get drunk in one year without some- thing happening to him. Now it turns up again in the shape of d serious report upon which the Board of Estimate is asked to act, outlining a plan for the public treatment and cure of drunkness as disease.
 And why not? We have not been so successful in dealing with this scourage of humanity as to warrant us in saying that some new plan may not be better. We arrest the drunkards. We fine him. which is fining his family; or we lock him up a short time, punishing them without curing him. And the cost is enormous,
 Under the proposed system first offenders would be released without app airing in court at all.
 Their falling is the result of convivality. or overestimate of their powers, or mere carelesness. A warning is in such cases suffi cient. But if the culprit appears in custoday again and again, the certainty grows that he is a vic tim of a diseased appetite. It is cheaper for the community anC better for him that he be cured than left to continue the round between Island, bar and police court until his weakened iron succumbs. For such offenders the new plan proposes an inde terminate sentence to a hospital industrial colony.
 If this system could be success fully used, the city would save money and many excellent mer might be more careful not to get drunk toe often.

Galena and other cities have been without vegetables two weeks. but truck farmers now say fall garden crops have a chance. In northwestern Arkansas, the two days rain broke" two months drouth which damaged oats and hay 9 to 50 per cent. Corn suf- fered much less there and else where in the South and West. Today's rain saved the corn in the bottom lands of Oklahoma. Rains were general today in cen tral Illinois and most of Missouri, ending a disastrous drouth.
 The weather Bureau today re- ported that since May 1, the rainfall at St. Louis has been 4.72 inches less than normal. Only Al of an inch has fallen here this month. The normal rainfall here for this period would have been 3. 15 inches. This is the worst June drouth here since 1864, when 4l inches of rain fell.

TO THE HONORABLE
 SONS OF REST

For the good of the order will say. You are aware of the fact, that we have the largest organi- zationon the American Continent, and only five years old. We are the largest organization in the world doing business without capital. We require no imitation fee, no dues, no assessments, no soliciting. all institutions where the society are the contributors and the other fellow the beneficl- ary willsoon gointo dreary. That is why all other institutions are be- ing absorbed into ours. This Is the only fraternal organization that minis ters will not tackle, due to ours. Being a non dues pay ing institution, we only differ a fraction, they preach rest in the future, we preach it the present and future too We have never had a suspended member. They have the preachers requires, a living of the members. Some wont contribute something for nothing.
 We are now living under new conditions these are the days of idolitary again. it's gas graft, trl- cicles, bicycles, motor-cicles, automobiles. airships, harem- skirts, hobhe-skirt talcicum powder. paint, false hair and teeth. The preachers are fooling away their time trying to control these animals until the season IS over. Iwould have been m the ministry long ago, but l read the history of man fr,t, my concept ion of him IS time thrown away. God said in the Garden CT Eden he was sorry he ever made such a thing, and Eut him out He then instituted preaching to save him. Yet God said preach ing was foollshness. yet it pleas

She over looked the very history she should fami- liarize herself with. 1 would have joined the Woman's Temper ance Union, 1 am in sympathy with them. Man has always had something to drink, the very first history we ever had of man written by Herroditus, man was drinking imported wines. Christ had to turn water into wine while he was here on earth to supply the demand and to pacify. Man told him that they would have drinkin every town wherewhiskey has been put. It was substituted with squirrel tail. cider. Hotshot, just any old thing to be drunk. There is only one shot for a pure unadulterable government, that is to admit Woman Sufferage, all that is pure and holy in this world of the human race is a woman.
 All that has ever been said in behalf of mans grandure, splen- dor, and sublimeness he wrote it himselfD Dor some other man wrote 1t.
 From the remotest days of antiquity woman has never been allowed to extend her influence simply because it would eliminate the damnable symptoms of today. There never was nothing to man God acknowledged in the garden or EQen.

It is not necessary for any woman to take our unsupported word for any statement we make. In fact, she can easily satisfy herself as to the efficacy of Rex all Vegetable Compound, if she will come to us, let us acqualnt her with the ingredients contain ed in this preparation. and then ask her physician his opinion of the treatment.
 The formula, after which Rex all Vegetable Compound is put up. is the same as used by re- putable successful physician in treating such ailments. Sirce 1t has been on the market, the re- liability of this treatment has been demonstrated in hundreds of cases, and today so positive are we of the results one may expect from a treatment of this preparation. that we offer to re fund any money you may have paid us for Rexall Vegetable com pound, if it fails to produce bene 1 ficial results in your own case.

government. Moses and his s,,cceasors were Socialists. Every

government. Moses and his successors were Socialists. Every fifty years they made an equal division of the land. This was called Jubilee year, or the year of Jubilee. In the next fifty years one or two men would have it all again and another Jubilee had to come off or else all the balance would be in poverty. I don't want to fool with any of this fifty year business. If every body would attend to their own business times would get alright.
 If all people had the proper literature and had time to read and improve themselves. you would hear less on the subjet, subjects as people would do their own thinking, all have all that was coming. Nothing but inteli- gence will ever socialize or equal ize anything. And that will never be. Every man or woman who reads the history of the past knows this. The infinite who was and is, and is to be knows the object and purpose of his creation and mysteries connected with it. All hope for a pure democratic government is lost. The possible way we might get pure religion, morality and good government honestly administer ed, would be by woman. If they could and would unanimously agree, on certain duty, sever all relationship with man. until he would reform to an extent that a puredemocratic governmentcould be established, always and means of making liquor destroyed, all federal Judges be put in the peni- tentiary for life it would not be six months until life would be worth living by all. They could use their influence if they would. An extent that it would astound all the intelligence of the world.

Hiqh School Basketball Team
viii be Speedy.

Manager william B~oughton, Of the
high school basketball quintet, expects
his squad 10 have a banner season this
year and surpass all other records of
former crimson and white teams. John
McCreery, captain and star forward Of
the Riverside five, has returned to
school and is a very great addition to
the teams offensive work.
With Davis and MeCreery at for
wards, Schantz and Kaplowitz at
guards, and G~oldberger at center,
Boughton's expectations seem very
probable. For fastness the team can
hardly be excelled, while the machine
work is likely to be superb. The fact
that McCreery, Davis and Schantz have
been playing together for a long time
and the same being true Of Goldberger
and Kaplowitz, practically assures the
success Of many fast plays which could
not be brought through if the boys had
not played together before.
Hard practice has been held by Cap
tain Schantz and there have been
enough candidates for five or six teams.
showing splendid spirit. "Johnnie'
Hunt, who played several games with
city teams last season and showed up a
good shot, will make some Of the lineup
60 faster than usual to hold their posi-
lions. Hunt would make a good guard,
being not only able to guard his man
but also being able to make a long shot
when an opportunity affords itself.
Practice will be continued on the
court in the rear of the high school
building for several weeks and then
transferred to the Auditorium, where
the first varsity tussle will be played
on December /.

LETTER FROM
MGR. BRADFORD
Roosevelt Manager Tells of
Franklin Incident Sunday.

The following IS contributed by L.
Bradford, manager Of the Roosevelt
A. CT
In a game where only two hits
were made by each side, the Frank
Inns left the field in the last half Of
the seventh inning Sunday afternoon
at Roosevelt. In this inning the
RoOseyelts started by Andres driving
a hard n to T. Smith at third,
which he could not handle. Jake
way was walked and Stanbach, run
ming for the Roosevelt pitcher, start
ed a double steal. On a close play
at third base Stanbach was called
safe and the Franklins left the field.
In the third inning Smith, the first
Franklin batter up, was hit by a
pitched ball and stole second. This
play was as equally as close but the
umpire ruled IN favor of the visitors.
Smith scored a minute later on an
error by J. Elk and a passed ball by
the catcher.
1t looked as if Apologize was
weakening from the hard pace and
with a man on third and second, no
n out and the best Roosevelt bat
ter up, they quit with cold feet. The
Rooseyelts are willing to meet them
on a neutral ground, il one can be
secured, for as large a side bet as
they wish to put up. Both teams
must line up the same as on Sunday.
If they had asked for a reverse of
the decision and continued the game
1t would have been far more sports
manlike.
