The human soul is like a bird that
is born in q cage. Nothing can de-
privc it of its natural longings, or
obliterate the mysterious rcmem-
orancc of It's heritage. Just so with
the human mind, nothing can fitch
from it the desire to secure that which
is best in cveryth;ns pertaining to
neatness. If it is in footwca: the
firm Of John \. Marshall & Bro. has
i in stock.

Truth is simple, requiring neither
study nor art. Reputation is not
made, though sometimes it may be
lost. in a day. Nearly forty years
Of business experience has proven
to John 4. Marshall &, Bro, that it
is healthful to tell the truth. Their
success in the shoe business is
due to their straightforwardness in
business and in strictly clinging to
an honest opinion about the goods
they sell.

RELATION TO HEALTH !:
says That Science Has outlawed the
Liquor Traffic Advocates
National Quar-
antlne.

Eugene w. Chain, late prohibition
fist candidate for president, declared
last night in a lecture at the First
Christian church that the liquor traf-
fc was the most popular subject be-
fore the American people today. Tt
is the popular cause before the people
because the relation OF the liquor
traffic to the public health Is the only
subject where you can always find
something new said Mr. Chain He
took as his subject the Relation Of
the Liquor Traffic to Public Health"
Science has done more for the
liquor question than for any other
problem. It has told us there is only
one kind Of intoxicating liquor alco-
hol, that no part Of alcohol ever
changes form in the human system
and that the last drop of alcohol
leaves mans body thirty days after
he has taken It, If no part Of alcohol
can change its form it can be neither
food, drink or stimulant-it is an irri-
tant," said Mr.. Chain
Alcoholic drunkenness is paralysis.
When we become thoroughly civilized
we will not send a man to Jail for
ten days when he gets drunk, but to
aghospital. Science has outlawed the
liquor traffic." he continued. There
is not an educated physician in the
country today who uses alcohol for
medicine"
He used Captain Hobson's figures to
show that more than seven million
people died last year as a result OF
the liquor traffic, more than were
killed in 1900 years before by war.
He declared that 100000 babies, be-
tween the years of one and five, died
last year as result Of alcoholic par
ents Eighty per cent Of those who
used liquor died when they contracted
pneumonia but very small per cent
OF those who do not use liquor die
from it. He declared that fifty per
cent of our tuberculosis was caused
by alcohol, He said that examination
had shown that there We're 100,0 900
defective school children in the
schools of New York City because of
alcoholic parents and that SO per cent
of the school children of st. Louis
were defective for the same reason.
He advocated the proposition Of a
national quarantine against 1t.

believed.
The chief jurisdiction dispute rs likely
to be that of the steam shovelmen, who
for some time past have had internal
trouble over the proper membership for
their organization. Other minor dis
putes are expected to be settled with
out particular trouble. Minimum wage
legislation. especially for women, will
