SALOONS CAUSE OF TROUBLE
Convictions In Police Court Of Brls-
bane Increase Greatly When
Dram Shops Are Opened.

The citizens of Brisbane, Australia
were recently given a striking illus
tration of the fact that arrests for mis-
demeanors multiply with the opening
of saloon doors and decrease when
they swing shut. A big strike was on
in the city and many workmen were
idle. AS an experimental measure
the saloons were closed for one week
Convictions In the police courts
promptly dropped from eighty-six to
twenty-six, and arrests for drunken
ness from fifty to five. After one
week Of prohibition the saloons were
permitted to do business from three
to six In the afternoon. Convictions
jumped to thirty-five, and arrests for
drunkenness to fourteen. Next, the sa-
looms were allowed to run twelve
hours each day. Convictions jumped
to eighty-eight, and arrests for drum
kenness to forty. The following week
all restrictions were withdrawn, and
the convictions numbered 100, the ar,
rests for drunkenness sixtyeeven.

CUR CONSUMPTION OF LIQUOR
Compares Favorably With That Of
Other Countries, Thanks to Aotlv-
lty Of Temperance People.

Our per capita consumption OF
liquor compares favorably with that of
other countries, thanks to the tenn
perance agitators.
When temperance people are de-
risively told that the report of the
commissioner of internal revenue
shows an increase in the output of
the brewers and the distillers, we
must consider the increasing number
of immigrants who come to our ooun-
try with their own ideas Of liquor
drinking. The quantity of beer CON-
sumed per capita in the United States
Is not as great as in Belgium, the
United Kingdom, Germany or Den
mark; and our per capita consumption
Of distilled LIQUOR is less than that Of
Denmark, Hungary, Austria, France,
the Netherlands and Sweden. The
quantity Of wine consumed In the
United States Is less per capita than
In Portugal, Spain, Italy, France,
Switzerland, Austria and Hungary.
We should consider how much worse
conditions would be In the United
States were 1t not for the activity Of
the temperance people of our country.
We understand there is In the liquor
warehouses an immense amount of
liquor which has not yet been dis
tributed, but which is reckoned in the
internal revenue report.

Birds Shot With Water.

Shooting a humming bird with the
smallest bird shot made is out of the
question, for the tiniest seeds of lead
would destroy his coat The only way
in which the bird can be captured for
commercial purposes is to shoot him
with a drop of water from blowgun
or fine jet from a small syringe.
Skillfully directed, the water stuns
him. He falls into a silken net and
before he recovers consciousness is
suspended over a cyanide Jar. This
must be done quickly. for if he comes
to his senses before the cyanide Whit
snuffs out his life he is sure to ruin
his plumage in his struggles to escape.
Humming birds vary in size from spe-
cimens perhaps half as large as a
sparrow TO those scarcely bigger than
bee.

NOT A PRODUCER OF REVENUE
Intoxicating Liquor Is Not Necessity
Nor Luxury-FountaIn Of Vice
Should Be Suppressed.

By ATTORNEY GENERAL DAWSON
Of Kansas)
Our ideas Of equity acQuiesce read
fly in the doctrine that luxuries should
bear a heavier rate of taxation than
necessities. But intoxicating liquor is
neither luxury nor a necessity. It
is a vice and the fountain of vice, and
we have no moral right to depend
upon vice as a source of revenue.
Luxuries are to be taxed; vice is to
be suppressed. Furthermore, 1t can
be shown from a myriad of proofs
that the license system is not reve-
nue. producer; 1t is not even what 1t
pretends to be. In cities where the
prohibitory law has been enforced and
the revenue licenses or license fines
shut off, the incidents of the liquor
business - court costs, paupers, de-
pendent and neglected children. and
kindred public expenses, shrink also,
SO that the loss of the license revenue
does not affect the ordinary taxpayer

The Landlord.

Kdte'S NDTrGtiDe.
OF his life before he reached this
province Jesse will so far tell me
nothing, yet his speech betrays him,
for under the vivid dialect of the
stock range, there is a streak Of sail
or, and beneath that 1 detect traces
of brogue which may be native per
haps to Labrador. Out of chaos of
books he has pecked words which
pleased him, pronounced, Of course,
to suit himself, and used in some
sense which would shock any die
tionary.
His manners and customs, too, are
a field for research. Of course one
expects him to be professional with
rope, gun, and ak, but how did he
learn the rest? I wanted a lantern
jhe made one; my boot was torn-he
made one; my waterproof coat was
ruined-he made one; and If l
asked for sewing-machine, he would
refuse to move camp until he had one
finished. If his name were not Smith
I could prove him directly descended
from the Swiss family Robinson.

he's editor.

have realized our welded happiness?

heart. First make paper pattern
of a heart, any size you like, and
then cut out section from the top.
This forms, as it were, two handles
at the top Of the heart stuff the
heart, when you have scanned the two
sides together, with any preferred
filing, and then sew the .shandlesas
together firmly, tying them afterwaf1
with a bow of narrow ribbon.
A little wild-rose valentine that 10
charming may be fashioned from
fifteen inches Of pink satin ribbon
an inch and a quarter wide. First.
with two inches Of the ribbon, make
a tiny oblong sachet. Then, with ths
rest of the ribbon, form FIVE petals.
each a two and one-half-inch length.
folded in the centre. To give the
petal effect just catch back each
folded corner and then gather tie
petals together along the lower edge.
If you have the yellow staneng left
over from some millinery rose. by all
means use them, says Woman's
Home Companion. If not. simulate
stamens by working French knots
in the centre of the rose, with heavy
yellow floss. Sew the rose TO the
sachet bag and on the back Of the
latter attach two lengths Of satin
baby ribbon.

hang your verse. Orlando fashion, Of
