Real Prohibition
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor of The Star:
In a recent issue of The Evening
Star you have an editorial in which
you say:
Before Congress can give any ear
to the one thousand Prohibitionists
who have been delegated to go to
Washington to demand the passage
of an amendment to make prohibit
ton national 1t will be necessary to
show how much of popular senti-
ment there is for it."
You point out that the Prohibi-
ton vote at the last general election
was but 176,159, or about one-half of
one per cent of the total vote. You
add that trip to Washington to ask
for prohibition would be a wild goose
chase.
Prohibitioniets contend that mpre
than one-half of the geographical
territory of the United States is pro-
hibition, but the latest report of the
United States Commissioner of Inter
nal Revenue shows that the annual
consumption of alcoholic liquors is
now 22.25 gallons per capita. This
would indicate that there is no de-
mand upon the part of the people
of the United States for real prohibi
ton of the use, sale or manufacture
of stimulating beverages.
1t is probable that there would be
RIO prohibition territory in the United
States If all who voted no-license pe-
Heved that by so doing they would
deprive themselves of procuring all
of the liquor desired for themselves.
Indeed, the Protibitionists always
provide for this by taking care that
in no-license territory one may re-
ceive Interstate liquor for personal
use. 1t is so in Prohibition Tennes-
see, where the law provides that one
may order and receive a gallon at a
time,
The Webb law, forced through Con-
gress by Prohibitionists, does not pre-
vent one from receiving in no-hcense
territory as much liquor as desired.

cure real prohibition through a law

Noted Women Whose Birthday Is Yours
DECEMBER
Christina Rossetti, Elizabeth Agassiz
BY MARY MARSHALL.

BIZ MARI
OF the two famous women whose
birthdays fall on December s each
owes her fame in some measure to
her connection with the life of a
great man, though each independent
ly would have achieved some measure
of fame. One was Christina Geor-
gina Rossetti, the sister of the IA
nous Dante Gabriel Rossetti, and the
other was Elizabeth Cabot Agassiz,
wife of Louis Agassiz, the celebrated
naturalist.
Christina Rossetti shared her
brothers prediction for verse and
at the age of twelve wrote some lines
on her mothers birthday that
showed remarkable powers. With
the financial difficulties of her fam
lily she did her share and gave les
sons in Italian, the language of her
grandparents, which she spoke as
fluently as she did English. The
greater part of her time, however,
was spent in works of charity and
religion and for this reason she. did
not turn her poetic gifts to such
large ACCOUNTS as she would had slitr
erature been her first interest. In
comparing her with her contempt
rary, Mrs. Browning, critics say that
while Mrs. Browning goes, ahead of
her in broadness of sympathy and
all-around poetic power, Christina
Rossetti excels Mrs. Browning in ex-
cellence of structure and form, and

government stations, and every cook
will have to have a license, a govern

to be licensed to practise medicine.
We shall have municipal kitchens

AUTHORS AS DANDIES

Lord Beaconsfield was dandy in
the days when he was known rather
as q novelist than as q politician.
His dress was at times garish In the
extreme.
A velvet suit, with ruff1es, was one
of his earliest choices in the matter
of clothes, and a few years later when
"vician Grey" had made him famous.
he attended a dinner party wearing
green velvet trousers, a canary
colored waistcoat, low shoes with
silver buckles and lace cuffs to his
coat.
1t was in 1880 that he one day
walked down Regent street, during
the hour of the day when 1t was most
crowded, adorned with blue surtout,
military light blue trousers, black
stockings with red stripes.
"Quite made way for me as I
passed. 1t was like the opening of
the Red Sea, which l now perfectly

Charles Dickens may likewise be
described as gorgeous dresser. Miss
Friswell relates that she was pass

when hanson stopped, and out
stepped a gaily-dressed gentleman;

ticed, but the size of the nosegay
in his buttonhole riveted my atten-
ton"
On another occasion, when sitting
for his portrait to Firth, he arrived
at the artists studio encased in a
sky-blue overcoat with red cuffs.
"His dress was florid," writes Sir
Joseph Crown in 1S4S; "a satin cravat
of deepest blue, relieved by embroid-
cries, q green waistcoat with gold
flowers, a dress coat with a velvet
collar and satin facings, opulence OF
white cuffs, rings in excess, made ur
rather striking whole"
r.. l.. Stevenson's ideas with re-
gard to dress were distinctly novel

in his costume was lady's sealslxin
cape, which he wore about his Shout
ders, fastened at the neck by a fancy
brooch, which also held together a
bunch of half a dozen dafodils.'
Alexandra Dumas appeared at an
ambassadors reception wearing red
tie and shirt on which were depicted
a number of little red demons disport-
ing themselves amid flames of yellow
fir.
'You would hardly believe it," he
said few days later, "but my cos
tune was a great success. Everyone
thronged round me and made much
of me; I really think that I have
started a fashion, which will take, of
going to evening parties in colored
linen.''
Theophile Gautier was at times a
lover of eccentric costumes. His Grim
son waistcoat is historical. He wore
1t on the occasion of the first per-
Torrance of Victor Hugo's Her
nani," when as a young man he was
one of the leaders of the band of stu
dents who had turned up in force to
ensure by the ttlmultuous applause
the success of the play.
The dress of Dominican monk was
the garb affected by Balzac when he
was engaged in writing his immortal
stories, while the working costume of
Rousseau was court dress.

the liquor problem.

along these lines: Take the liquor
question out of politics by providing

carry with 1t the right of renewal so
long as the holder obeys the law and
so long as the community in which
lit is issued is not voted "no-license."
Suspend the license for thirty days
upon the holders first conviction for
violation of law and cancel it per-
rnanently upon second conviction.
No new license should be issued I'M
til the proportion becomes one for
each 500 of population.
The license fee should be made rea-
sonaDle, yielding a fair revenue to the
community where it is ISSUED; excess
sive high license must inevitably
tempt the dealer to resort to unfair

himself for the excessive license paid.

in poetry dealing with the emotions
of disappointed love, 1t is said that
she has never had a peer. This was
due no doubt to the fact that Chris
tina actually did have a disappoint-
ment of some sort in her early life
which tempered her subsequent life.
Much of her most popular work and
the work in which she was most in
terested consisted of religious man
uals, which, however useful they may
have been, certainly do not make use
of her full poetic gifts.
Elizabeth Agassiz, who was born
in Boston ninety-one years ago today
presents a decided contrast to the
sensitive, retiring, prayerful Chris
tina. She was endowed richly with
intellectual gifts, which, after her
marriage at the age of twenty eight
to the celebrated naturalist, she
spent 1avishly for her husband. She
had taught school before her mar
rage, and afterward in order to free
her husband from financial RESPONSE
bilities she conducted a successful
girls school under the roof of their
house After her husbands death
She used her influence toward open

Amateur Poultry and Cattle Raising
Beset with Woes.


NEW YORK, Dec. 5.-Poultry and
cattle-raising in the suburbs of the
metropolis is beset with many trou-
bles both to the amateur farmer and
his neighbors, as is evidenced by two
unusual cases decided yesterday by
jury in the county court at River
head, Long Island Walter King, a
millinery designer, was found guilty
of putting arsenic in breadcrumbs on
his mothers grave in the Goodground
Cemetery as a means to keep chickens
off the lot 1t developed that twenty
eight chickens belonging to John
Lane, a farmer living near the GEM
etery, ate the poison and died. King s
sentence will be imposed next week.
In the same court an hour later Mrs.

ing poisoned q young calf belonging
to Mrs. Albert b. Wolf, her next
door neighbor. Mrs. Wolf had kept
the calf tied to a post in her yard,
but the rope was long enough to en-
able It to dine on rose bushes on Mrs.

came Ill and almost died. 1t was
proved to the satisfaction of the jury
that Mrs. Lippert had sprinkled her
bushes and lawns with Paris green.
She also will be sentenced next week.

Human beings have ever been great
sufferers from the ignorance OF COOKS
and from their own. lack of knoWl-
edge of food values and the chemistry
of foods. The bad selection of foods
and bad cooking lay the foundation
for all sorts of human ills; our cooks
are adopts in life shortening. In the
majority of families the, choice of
foods is largely left to the cooks,
who give us the things they happen
to like themselves, or which they
have been accustomed to prepare,
and these foods may not be at all
adapted to our constitution, our tenn
permanent, our mode of living, our
habits or our vocation. The diet OF
multitudes of people is, accordingly,
not only badly prepared, but the ar
ticles of food themselves do not have
the proper food values and have very
little bearing upon our real needs.
There is nothing which touches
human life so closely as the foods
which make our blood, build up the
physique. constantly renew, and
maintain all the tissues in the body.
There are multitudes of people who
are not really i'll, but who do not feel
right habitually, and yet they Go
not know why. Their brains are
heavy, they cannot think clearly,
their minds are cloudy, their thoughts
dull, and they do not know what the
trouble Is. They go to physicians who
tell them that they have no organic
disease, and yet they do not have
that masterful feeling, that thrill IF
health which we all feel is normal to
us. These people are often suffering
from the incompatibility of different
kinds of food, which may be all right
when taken separately, but which de-
velop chemical antagonism when
taken into the body together. Or the
trouble may come from their food not
being properly prepared, which is the
case with multitudes of people. They
