NOT IN KANSAS SCHEME.

1T was hot summer day" says the
Emporia (Kan.) Gazette. 1T was also
dusty. One hundred and fifty men were
riding from town to town In Central
Kansas, in autos, on trade extension
tour. They were Kansas men-mer-
chants, lawyers, doctors, editors,
clerks, mechanics, bankers, farmers.
From time to time they stopped at
thirteen towns~during the days run.
No one in the crowd spoke OF beer.
No one had any beer. No one at the
thirteen towns offered anyone any
beer. At most of the towns there
were great, deep, stone jars OF lceo
lemonade on the sidewalks with bright
tin cups hanging from the jars, and a
sign up, Welcome, Emporians.' There
was no whisky, wine or beer IN the
crowd. No one missed it No one
spoke of it. For these men, ranging
from thirty to sixty years OF age nao
lived in Kansas thirty years unoer ao-
solute prohibition. Most OF them nao
never been in a saloon in their nome
town in their lives. Booze was as re-
mote from their consciousness as car
bolic acid. Booze Is not In the Nam
sas scheme of things. No one thinks
of 1t. It's presence or absence Is not
considered by the Kansas MIND.

Ferdinand, himself half French, is pas
sionately fond of France and all things
French, which, by the way, is side
light on the training of the Bulgarian
army by French officers and the use
of Creusot guns by the Bulgarian ar
tillery. 1t has been said of Ferdi
nand's subjects: "The foreign people
whom the Bulgarians love are the
French"
His mother was Princess Marie Gle
mentine of Bourbon-Orleans, daughter
of King Louis Philippe Of France, a
woman of vast ambition and capacity,
who dedicated her son from boyhood
to statecraft, and is declared to have
had an intuition that he was to occupy
a throne His father was Prince Au-
guste of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. 1t
has been stated that the present ruler
of the Bulgars owes everything to his
clever mother, who, Bismarck used to
say, was "the only man of the Orleang
family"
The other woman who has been of
first importance in Ferdinand's life
was Princess Marie Louise Of Bour-
bon-Parma, to whom he was married
in 1898, when he was thirty-two, Marie
being twenty-three. She died In 1899,
leaving two sons and two daughters.

"We want the liquor question pre-
sented in its true aspect" says one of
the trade journals in protest against
the announcements of the traffic by
temperance speakers and writer's.
Temperance people say amen to that.
So do all who are seriously consider
ing the question and are working to,
ward a solution of this national prob.
lem. We want the truth concerning
alcohol from the time the grain Is d.
verted from its natural and legitimate
use-and its life-giving elements con-
verified and perverted into death-deal-
ing poisons-to the hour when, spark
ling and hooking, it lures men and
women to destruction and recruits
the ranks of paupers and criminals.
We want the truth concerning the re-
lation of strong drink to social and
economic conditions. We want moth.
ing but the truth concerning the
liquor question in any of its aspects
physical, moral, financial, political
Men, women and children are learn.
ing the truth today as never before.
The public Is being shown the real
nature of alcohol-and there can be
but one result.

Was Aid of John Wesley.

DR.. Thomas Coke, one Of the first
and most famous of the missionary
bishops of the Methodist church, died
100 years ago on ship in the Indian
ocean, and was buried at sea. A ma
tive Of Wales, DR.. Coke in early life
became a co-worker of John Wesley,
and, as much as Wesley himself, he
Is regarded as the property of the
world Of Methodism. 1t was he who or.
ganized the Methodist church and
secured for it legal standing. 1t
was he also who founded Methodist
missions in British possessions, in
America and India, and it was he
who finally founded Methodist educa-
ton and literary work. Bishop Coke
paid nine visits to America, and came
to be known on this side Of the At
lantic as the foreign minister OF
Methodism."
