GsnerOsiiy and Gall.

Among newspaper men, the bor-
rowing and lending of money is no
unusual thing, and the man who has
a few dollars is always ready to
share them with the fellow who is
hard up.
One afternoon a middle-aged man,
who looked seedy and hungry, and
who had not had shave for four
days, leaned against the wall near
the entrance to big newspaper
building in St. Louis. When
young man came out of the door,
the older called him, and said:
Dick, lend me half dollar. I'm
all in, and 1 need something to eat %
IN sorry, Barney" replied Dick,
but / haven't a cent. I'm just on
my way to pawn my watch for
fve-spot."

on the mahoganies Of the licensed

on the mahoganies Of the licensed
saloons.
Whiskey is the most dangerous
and expensive thing in the world to
fool with, and next to whiskey
comes one Of it's most noxious fruits
talk.
Talk causes more trouble and
leads up to more destruction than
any one thing in the world. The
person who thinks talk is cheap,
should think again and for. their
benefit we ask them to count the
dead ones that used rash and insult
ing talk without considering the
cost. Estimate the number of fool
ish family quarrels, that separate
wives and husbands and break up
the homes. Take into consideration
the number of persons who go to
prison, and the thousands who lay
themselves liable to term behind
the bars, through talk, every day,
and you will have to admit that
talk comes pretty high.
Talk is not to be considered cheap
in any instance. If it is the right
kind, it is priceless, otherwise it is
worthless and dear at any price.
Think twice before you speak," is
a good rule, and always bear in
mind: A reckless expenditure Of
hot air is about the most expensive
thing that person can indulge in"

Talk and Booze
B.. s..

Talk is cheap, but it takes mon
ey to buy whiskey." We have all
heard the above expression many
times; and, probably, let it slip by
without branding it as lie. Most
Of us know that a greater falsehood
was never uttered. So, let us brand it.
1t takes more than money to buy
whiskey. It takes away from wives,
children, mothers, fathers, sisters,
brothers and loved ones, many of
the good things that money will
buy; and even then, in some cases,
you have only started TO pay for it.
Individually, we all know what it
has cost us; and we know what it is
liable to cost millions of others as
long as the decanters sit temptingly

Temperance Movement
Continued

Continued
generations that are to come, and it
would seem to be much easier task
for those who would benefit human
ity, if they would change their at
tack upon the liquor interests and
instead of trying to drive the saloon
out of business, endeavor to secure
such laws, that the injurious effect
of such places, which in the past
have caused so much misery. will be
reduced to a minimum.
The saloon under present condi-
tions is one of the great evils that
exist in this country, but firmly be-
lieve that the saloon is a necessity,
at least while strong drink continues
to be manufactured. And through
a general reform movement launched
throughout the nation, which un-
doubedly would meet with the hearty
approval and earnest support OF all
true citizens who are interested in
the welfare of all the people, the
saloon would, in the not distant fu-
ture, be placed upon a basis that
would be satisfactory to the most
rabid temperance advocate.

Strength Of Character
Young Steady

Three travellers sat on lofty hill,
1t the foot of which clear stream ran,
And each asked the other this question grave:
what is Gods best gift to MANI"
The first one spoke, after bordering deep,
Upon the size of his golden heap;
His God it was and he loved it for
The luxuries it brought to his earthly store.
Forgetting such tribute is Caesars pence,
Said Gods best gift is dollars and cents.
The second man thought of home and wife
And children who added joy to his life;
So he said forsooth, though he had no gold,
Still he found in his home joy untold;
And those dear ones he blessed with prayer
AS Gods best gift to his love and care.
The third man said, no wealth have /,
Or loved ones to cheer as the days go by;
All these will desert you and bring but pain,
Instead of the joy you strove to gain;
Unless Gods best gift in that strength you find
To make your character pure loving and kind"
And SO say to those who would heed,
And turn their minds from thoughts of greed:
The strength to stand for the just and true
Is Gods best gift to me and you.

Or. Prevention Versus Cure
Lmogsuu,y Dialogue Betz0een the Old ScAo0I %
Prison Discipline and the Nes0:
OLD SCHOOL
He who takes what isn't his'n,
When he's caught he goes to prison;
That's the rule go on.
Flog him till he roars with pain
Then half starve-then fog again
Next day starve-and so on
NEW SCHOOL
He who infancy neglected,
Faculties all msdirected,
Into crime may lead him;
May be yet reclaimed from sn
Hopeless outcast! take him in.
Teach him; clothe him; feed him.
OLD SCHOOL
Take him into prison, yes
Clothe him--aye with prison dress!
Teach him-aye, with scourging
Feed him-yes, with prison fare
Naught but wears jail-like air;
Thus his guilt be purging.
NEW SCHOOL
Set before his youthful mind
All that's holy, just, and kind;
Let him feel he's human.
Rouse in him his self-respect;
Show him we cen yet expect
He'll live to be a true man.
OLD SCHOOL
Let him herd with felons old,
Swinders cunning, burglars bold
All their arts they'll teach him.
Let his heart be hardened till
knowledge of what's good or i'll
Never more can reach him.
NEW SCHOOL
Though vagrant from his birth,
Though stain on Gods fair earth,
Not on him the blame be.
Taught to steal soon as walk,
Taught to lie as soon talk,
On our heads the shame be.
On our heads-for we have stayd
Hands which should be stretched to aid
Shielding from temptation.
Jals instead of schools we've tried;
Scourges hangmen, provide,
Stead of education.
OLD SCHOOL
Hangmen, jails we'll all employ,
When to manhood grows the boy,
Savage, hardened, callous.
Terror to his fellow men,
Naught can save us from him then,
But at last the gallows.
NEW SCHOOL
MOI The hangman's day is DER;
Terror now shall reign more;
Kindness, care attention,
Will be found means more sure.
Long you've tried in vain to cure;
Now We'll try prevention.
