MAY COLLECT DRINK BILLS
Wisconsin Saloonkeepers Will Ask
Legislature to Pass New Law
at the Next Sc: sion.

Milwaukee. - Wisconsin saloon
keepers intend to ask the next legis-
lature fer the right to proceed with
garnishment action against delin-
quent customers. according to John
Langan, president of the Wisconsin
Retail Liquor Dealers association.
Mr.. Langan states that the execu-
tive committee of the state associa-
ton has decided to ask the legisla-
ture to enact such a law, and also
TO pass a bill investing the license
granted by any municipality in the
saloonkeeper himself, and not in the
building in which he conducts a sa-
loon, to make it possible for the pro-
prietor TO move, should he so desire,
without asking for a new license.
In regard to garnishment proceed
ings, President Langan holds that
the liquor business is as legitimate
as any other, and that the saloon
keeper should have as much right to
collect his bills under the law as
grocer or butcher. Another meeting
will be held on December A.

OF the Utmost Importance to the
Health and Welfare of All the
Family.

1t is the duty of the housewife to
furnish a we'll balanced diet to the
members of her family. BY taking
something from each group of food
materials she will be able to supply
all of the five food substances-pro-
water-which are necessary. The
correct proportions of each, however,
must be determined by the individual
requirements and peculiarities. Ap-
petite, age, sex, occupation, climate
and season must all be considered
when making a well-regulated diet for
the normal person.
1T should always be remembered
that the ideal diet is that combina-
ton of foods which, while imposing
it with exactly sufficient material to
meet it's wants. and that any dis
regard of such a standard must In
evitably prevent the best develop
ment Of our powers"
The vegetable foods-peas, beans.
lentils and nuts, particularly peanuts
that may in a measure supplant
meat should often be found on the
table The peanut paste or butter
made from Underground nuts Is
pleasing to the taste and very nu-
tritious. Peanut-butter sandwiches
make a wholesome lunch for school
children.

NEENAH MAN LOSES REWARD
Alleged Rail Bandit Pleads Guilty, But
the Jury Disagrees When Cap
tor Sues Tor $500.

Neenah.-Whether John Young,
serving fifteen-year sentence in the
North Dakota penitentiary on his
own confession is guilty of robbing
the Northern Pacific train in Buffalo,
n. D., July 8, aroused such a differ
ence OF opinion among the jurors in
st. Paul court who heard the case
brought by Henry Burr of Neenah, to
recover reward for his conviction,
that they were unable in twenty-four
hours to agree on a verdict. They
were discharged by the judge.
Railroad officials say the disagree
ment is virtually victory for them
as they will not be compelled to pay
the reward of $4,000 to Burr until
he proves the man in the penitentiary
is guilty

Suicide Among German Children.

Why do SO many German children
commit suicide? No one seems to
know, but there is no dispute about
the fact. Indeed 1t has been said that
the majority of suicides are those of
children, and experts seem inclined to
connect the grissly epidemic with the
educational system. That "the weak
must go to the WALL has become an
axiom that has been extended to the
schools, and the undeveloped mind of
the child seeks relief in suicide from
the encouragement of failure. 1t
would be interesting to know if any OF
the so-called heather countries of the
world have ever experienced such
horrid social phenomena as that OF
child suicide.
