Cutting it Out

Why he quit, how he quit, what he
quit, when he quit and after he quit
drinking is entertainingly told by
Samuel G. Blythe, one of the best
known special writer's in America, in
little volume, Cutting 1t Out" Just
off the press of Forbes and Company,
Chicago. This work originally ap-
peared in the Saturday Evening Post,
and is on par with Mr. Blythe's
other writings. The little volume is as
interesting as it is possible for writer
to make it. Blythe quit drinking not
because he was so-called temper
ance crank, nor because he changed
his moral attitude, but because he saw
that it was doing him harm to keep
on drinking. He was not heavy
drinker, but one of the moderate sort
There are some amusing things in the

By a decision of the supreme court

From the many resolutions which
have emanated from the North of Ire
land demanding in no uncertain
terms the expulsion of the present
magistrates from the city of Belfast,
and the substitution of stipendiary
magistrates in their place, one would
have supposed that that city was
surely paradise for drink sellers. But
the other day trader was fined G5,
and her license forfeited for harbor-
ing thieves on her licensed premises,
and the same trader was fined 9I for
selling during prohibited hours.
Surely temperance workers, headed

tempting 10 improve by breeding the
average egg production OF a strain OF
Barred Plymouth Rock poultry. An
account is given OF the results Of the
earlier experiments In selecting the
high st producers as breeders without
regard TO any other qualities than
their trap nest records. II is shown
that this plan OF breeding failed 10 OBJ
tain any distinct improvement In fioch
production. The experiments OF the
station TO find out whether continued
artificial incubation and brooding has

described. The effect OF inbreeding on
egg production is discussed on the
basis OF extensive experimental rec

simple explanation OF a new plan OF
breeding which has been tried during
the past Ave years. and which IL based
upon the conception that high egg pro-

that by a proper system OF pedigree

Of the bulletin is devoted to an exposi-

productiyeness fixed as a definite
character have now been obtained and
are being propagated at the station.

"Jeferson's example, following that

of third term from the politics OF
that time, There was a universal ac-
quiescence in the practice established
by Madison and Monroe AnGrew
Jackson did not believe even IN one
reelection.
During Grants second term there
was an agitation to secure his cleo
ton for a third term. After more
than a year of discussion the question
was brought up in Congress, and on
December Is, 1876, the House OF Hep-
resentatives, by vote OF 233 to 10,
passed a resolution against the third
term idea Four years after his name
was presented to the Republican con-
vention, but he was defeated for the
nomination"
Mccall recalled that on June 10,
1901, after President Mckinley had
entered upon his second term, he
put himself unequivocally on record
against a third term by saying he
would not accept the nomination if it
were rendered him. Presidels Roose-
welt, he declared, was equally empaar-
ic in his refusal to consider a third
term.
