JOHN LINDSAY CRAWFORD

When George Lindsay Crawford. the twenty second Earl of Crawford, died in 1908 he had no children and sister. Lady Mary Crawford. But the earl had not been long dead be- fore various claims were advanced to the peerage, one of them being preferred by a person of the name of John Crawford. who came from Dungannon, in the north of Ire land. This was in January. 1909. He claimed to be a descendant of the Hon. James Lindsay Crawford, a younger son of the family, who had taken refuge in Ireland from the prosecutions of 1666-16S0.
 The claimant was clever enough after arriving at Ayr not to mahe his mission known until he had se- cured q considerable amount of in formation respecting the family his tory. From Ayr he proceeded to visit Kilbirnie Castle, once the resi- dence of the great knightly family of Crawford. Here he obtained some valuable papers which he found in an out house, included among them letters written by James Lindsay Crawford whose descendant he pre- tended to be.
 John appropriated these papers and produced them when the opportune moment came. His story and what evidence he had gathered together made an impression on the people in and about the village. and through promises of what he would do when he secured the estates, he was able to raise considerable money
 In due time the pretender to the Crawford peerage instituted judicial proceedings. His advocates brought forward some very feasible parole evidence; but they mainly rested their case upon the documents which had been discovered in the old cabi- ret at Kiibirnic. These letters, when originally discovered, had been writ tn on the first and third pages: but in the interim the second pages had been filled up in an exact imitation of the old hand with matter skill fully 'contrived to support the pre- tensions of the newcomer.
 This forgery was discovered and q charge was brought against the claimant, and he and his chief abet- tor, James Bradley. were both brought to trial before the high court of iusticiary in February. 1872, and were sentenced to fourteen years transportation. The claimant was shipped off to Botany Bay, and ar | rived in New South Wales in 1913. During his residence there he con-

The very important issue of state wide prohibition has been raised. 4 campaign in favor of a constitutional amendment will be shortly instituted. This. like all other important ques- tons has two sides. on each of which are found honest and intelligent per sons.
 The Republican has decided to pro- vide for q reasonable discussion of this issue in it's pages. allowing to each side at least a half column daily for signed articles. for which there will be no charge. No anonymous article will be published.

This is regarded as a precedent that is more than likely to be followed. Ger
 tainly no amendment could mean more for the financial and moral welfare of our people. Compared to this all other amendments are secondary in import ance. If truth is destined to rise again, as we are taught to believe. then the time is here when this movement should be crystallized into law.
 We are not without straws to show the direction of the wind. The amend ment giving to women the privilege of suffrage was fought bitterly by the liquor clements on the theory that if the women were permitted to vote they would put the saloons out of business. Notwithstanding this intense opposi- ton from the liquor interests the women were given the ballot by a vote of more than two to one. the men. only, voting, and voting in full knowl- edge of the arguments of the liquor men Now, if q vote of two to one gave the ballot to women with the possible effect of abolishing saloons. this vote given by the men alone, how much more certain is the fate of this amendment that not only the men who voted before can support, but the women who will also have the oppor-
 tunfty for the first time to declare themselves?
 It seems to me that the logic of the situation is almost conclusive. If any further evidence were needed the atti-
 tude of the corporations employing la
 bor ought to afford it. With the lia-
 bility law as it is, the argument of self defense ought to appeal to every employer of labor, no matter how haZ- ardous the occupation. The employe under the influence of liquor is tre mendous hazard in any occupation, and the employers liability is not lessened by the fact that his employe is intoxi- cated. The laborer is also recognizing the fact that the liquor alliance is the worst form of capitalism. that liquor destroys his efficiency and puts him early in the doWn-and- out class and robs his family Of their share of his earnings These are but a few of the reasons which seem to point to the success of the amendment

SNAKE NESTS IN LIBRARIES

A gentleman in the Far East in
taking a book down from the shelf
felt a sharp pain in the end of his
finger. He thought a needle had
been left in the book. and that ii
had pricked him. His hand and
arm began rapidly to swell, and he
died from the wound, which was
the bite OF a snake that had crawle'
into the library. Books, like the
tongues OF philosophers, are the
best and worst things in the world;
il good the best, il bad the worst.
So many books today are beautiful
in their rhetoric, brilliant in their
pictures. aud yet often so very dan
gerous TO the morals of the read
er, as though serpents had crawled
into the volumes TO sting the souls
OF the readers to death. or such
authors can be said: They have
sharpened their tongues like ser
pent; adder's poison is under their
lips" Fps. ii0:3.)-The Christian

She should have great self con-

things, never giving away to her

She should be Of a congenial ma
ture, trying to make everything
pleasant for herself and everyone

She should have respect for 9TH
er peoples feelings, not saying any
harsh things about her friends and
neighbors, not always trying to
keep up hard feelings among her
neighbors.
She should be neat about her
home, keeping everything neat and
tidy, be ever ready to adopt new
and better plans instead of staying
in the same old rut. She should
keep her person neat and attractive
and be simple and natural in her
tastes about her dress and general
appearance.
She needs TO have a good educa-
ton and be bright and intelligent,
and take great interest in social af-
fairs that are uplifting.
She should make herself agreea-
BILE among the young men and wo-
men of her community. She should
not get old too quick but always be
young and youthful, for there is
no one who likes dignifed old
maid.
The one great thing that will add
to her life is a strong Christian
character and this will prove a
greater attraction than beauty, so
that when she passes, people can
say of her as they did OF Evangel-

brightness and an ethereal beauty
shining in her face and encircling
her form and when she passes it
seems as the passing of exquisite

HOW THEY MAKE ARTIFICIAL
SNAILS IN PARIS

In the current issue Of Farm and
Pireside Herbert Quick, editor OF
that publication, writes an interest
ing article about the use OF various
meats as food. He shows how our
ideas OF food do not always conform
10 the ideas Of other people. He
saws that, for example, in Japan,
the meat of red dog is a great
delicacy and that in France since
the Franco-Prussian war horse
meat has been quite frequently US
ed. In the following extract from
his article he tells how artificial
snails are made in Paris:
within a year or so a workman
in Paris sued his employer for per-
sonal injuries incurred in his work
rs a maker OF artificial snails. This
lei the cat meat out OF the bag. The
demand is so great that there are
not enough natural snails to supply
il, and this guileful business man
had perfected machinery and for
mula whereby he took the lights OF
animals-quite as good food, ! sus-
pect. as their livers-and the nesh
of cats, and therwith filled second
hand snail shells for the eplcures,
