DRY GOODS SALES GIRLS
WILL HAVE CHANCE TO REST
Success of Efforts of Ladies of w. C..
T. U. in Their Behalf.

Several months ago the ladies of the
w. c. T. L. began a crusade in the
interest of the sales girls in the dry
goods stores of this city, the object be-
ing TO provide them facilities for rest
when not actually engaged, it being the
opinion of the ladies that physical in
jury would result from continuous
standing on the feet for a period of
from twelve to fourteen hours.
Lately a committee of the W. c. T. L.
called on the leading merchants and
were courteOusly received and were
promised the cooperation of the pro-
prietors who will provide chairs for
the girls.
This will be accomplished with some
difficulty in most of the stores which
are already suffering from lack of
room, but the proprietors of the Bos-
ton store, NJ. Goldwater & Bro and
the New York store said that they
would do the best they could for the
present. Mr. Korrick of the New York
store said that in the construction of
his new building he would make ar
rangements for affording the employees
rest when not engaged in waiting on
customers.
All the merchants agreed with the
committee that the reform would not
only be a relief to the girls but would
also result in better service to the
stores. On the theory that a clerk who
has been refreshed by rest will per
form better and more satisfactory work
than one who is weary.
The w. c. T. L. ladies have come

other way-prOviding those of them
who have no homes with rooms in the
dormitory of the W. c. T. L. building
at actual cost. These rooms of which
there are not a great many at present
are reserved especially for working
girls who are thus given as much of a
taste of home life as possible. 1t is
the hope of the members of the or
ganiZation that this relief may be
further extended by the construction Of
a larger dormitory so that the girls
may have facilities such as are en-

1t isn't the fault so much of the
judges or the politicians that there is
SO much corruption in the judiciary
and other departments Of the govern
ment. It's the fault of the people who
do not attend to their own affairs.
Calls for initiative, referendum, recall
and commission government are like
the clamors of a sick man, who goes
to the drugstore for a stimulant or a
sedative, instead of trying to live a
natural and healthy life. The people
have recall enough now and do not
need commissions. What they need is
to take a live interest in their public
affairs, to scan the character Of the
candidates and study laws. to go to
the polls and vote for the best men
and the best measures, regardless of
party yOkes, to see that the laws are
enforced instead of leaving them to
enforce themselves, that good men are
kept in office until better men offer
and that dishonest and incompetent
men never have a second term. AL
these things the people can do if they
will, and until they do they will never
have ideal government. And govern,
ment should be ideal-the people car
never attain a full measure of pros
perity until it is.

At this writing, it is impossible to
tell whether prohibition has been re-
pudiated in Maine or not. But 1t
doesn't speak very well for the law,
that, after a sixty-four years trial,
nearly if not quite half, if not more
than half, of the voters OF the state
are in favor Of the repeal II the law
had been what it should be, or as ac-
ceptable to the people. it would have
been almost impossible to obtain an
election on the question, let alone have

Important and Efficient Work at the
state Capital by Lady from

In the office Of Comptroller a c.
Groom, at Tallahassee, is a bright lit
tie woman who, through efficiency and
ability, has made herself one of the
most valua BILE employees Of the state.
In fact, she has done more for the
benefit of Florida than did the last
Legislative session of sixty days.
The young woman in question is
Miss jefferson Bell. who first became
interested IN affairs at the state cap
ital through her newspaper work, in
which she met with marked success,
her writing on political subjects be-
ing unusually interesting. She is now
in the pension department. and is the
toast of Floridians who have dealings
with that department.
One can ask Miss Bell a question
with reference to any one of the hum
dreds who draw pensions from the
state and she'll answer the question
without hesitancy. Then she'll pro-
ceed to verify her own statements,
which are always correct. Her power
for memorizing is indeed wonderful.
The biggest thing ever done for the
state by this modest woman. though.
is to save the taxpayers just about
$500, 900 annually. Although the fact is
not generally known. Miss Bell drew
the pension bill now in effect, which
cuts off scores who We're on the pen
sion roll for years, drawing money
from the state unjustly. All states,
north and south, have suffered from
these imposters, and they have proven
a problem to the legislatures and
Congress. Miss Bell, however. seems
to have solved the problem to a great
extent for Floridians, doing what
noted politicians and lawyers failed to
do.
Truly this weaker sex business is
moving toward the "can't-come back
class-JackS onville Metropolis.

Alcohol a Brain Poison

Every poison has selective af1n-
above all others. For instance the
poison of lead likes the muscles of
the wrist; mercury the salivary
glands: magnese. the liver: tobacco.
the heart; arsenic, the coating of the
stomach: strychnine, the spinal cord:
whereas. alcohol likes the brain the
best. This places alcohol at the top
of the list as the most serious poison
of all those mentioned, because it has
the strongest affinity for the brain,
part of the human body, the home of
the mind.
The nature of alcohol, not eXclu-
sively the overdose, unbalancing the
guiding faculties of the man and I'M
duly awakening his emotional nature,
accounts for the fact that there are
more moderate drinkers in the penal
institutions of this country who have
committed crime under the impulse OF
liquor than there are of habitual
drunkards who have committed Of
fenses while drunk. In the state of
Massachusetts there are twenty-four
thousand men in the penal institutions
who have committed crime while un-
der the influence of liquor, four thou
sand Of them are registered as abit-
ual drunkards, while twenty thousand
are registered as moderate drinkers.

Though proudly the victor comes,
With iuc'ring f1ags and prancing nags
And echoing roll of drums.
Still truth proclains this motto.

UNTIL IT IS SETTLED RIGHT
Tho the heel Of the strong oppressor
May grind the weak in the dust.
And the voices Of fame with one ac-

Let those who applaud take warning,

Let those who have toiled take cour-

Tho the enemy seemed to have won,
Tho his ranks are strong, if he be In
