MR.. BILLIARDS ARGUMENT.

Mr.. Billiard was greeted with prolonged
applause. He brought against the Legal
ICED liquor traffic here in Burlington all
the force of his eloquence and logic, and
his vast knowledge OF local conditions.
He said that he had come TO the conclu-
sion that there was something wrong
with this system. Then he took up one
by one the arguments that had swayed
him when the licensed saloons were first
suggested. and showed how each of these
arguments had disappointed him
He said they claimed they would close
the dives and drive out the boot logger
and that this claim had sounded good
that there are more illegal places do
at that time. He went on very clearly
and with facts to substantiate his state
ments. to show that the dives are an
spoke OF a place raided here into which
| eleven men came while the officers
were still present. That place was
over a licensed saloon, and the business
that the saloon couldn't do, in selling
to minors and habituals and after
hours and so forth. could be sent con-
veniently upstairs. Instead OF the
regulated and restricted saloon driv-
ing out the dives and boot-leggers, ne
said they had multiplied such places.
He took up the other suggestion
that licensed saloons would be bene-
fit to business. lie said that he had
been unable to find a single business
that had been benefited. lie admitted
that some business had been increased
but doubted ii this increase could be
called exactly a benefit He said that
for instance, the jailor was doing a
bigger business. The business in
creased by the saloon. next TO tho jail

 Dear Doctor: have just read your column about Hay Fever and Asth- ma. It is about a year ago since I became afflicted with that distressing disease, Hay Fever,< and it has never left me, although my nose does not run very much nor do I sneeze very much, but I seem stopped up. Some times I can neither taste or smell am using a, balm every light in my nose and it helps me, but I have to use it all the time. I now have Asthma, my nose and throat seem raw and cought and my breathing is choked and Wheezy. I am a great sufferer from stomach trouble, indi- gestion, constipation, also have rheu- rnatism. I know all these diseases will come from my stomach. My nervous system is very bad also I you would kindly explain more fully how to use the treatne ent tin your column, I would be so thankful, for I have tried every thing Doctor says I cannot be euRed unless I change climate, but I can hardly do that, so have to suffer. My eyes have been very weak since I had Hay Fever and there seems to be missing and throbbing in my head. What I eat seems to go to fiat instead of strength. I am too heshy, seem to bloat and get, so corpulent.
 MRS. J. S. Fever, I had no idea that I was go- ing to find so many sufferers. I sup posed that many of the home physi- clans would be able to supply the remedies, although I know that all drug stores do not keep them and us ually not the AlIopathic physicians. Many of the Homeopaths do, how ever.
 In your case there is a complica- ton of conditions that will require a somewhat different and additional form of treatment, and right at this point let me tell you about the Home Health Club books In theN Vol. 3, you will find a great deal of infor- nation upon the subject of Hay Fever and Asthma, that would be vastly helpful to you. will say, however, that while a change of climate to cef- tain localities would undoubtedly re- ieve your Asthmatic trouble and help the Hay Fever, a cure will not be brought about until you can complete ly overcome constipation and indiges- ton.
 You did not state your age, but from the description given, I take it that you have passed the middle of life and some of the symptoms would in di fo "a of thorough and careful attention by a competent dentist. also that you should use 3. thorough mouth wash every morning on arising and again at night before retiring.

less consti patton. Many people. who have a movement of the bowels daily think that they are not constipated, while as a matter of fact the move ment is from one to five days late and the waste or fecaI matter has been accommodating in the colon and thus poisoning the entire system. If all of the waste matter was promptly e1im- mated you would not have so much trouble with your digestion, neither would there be a tendency to accuna- ulate supeFhuous tissue,
 Now, in order to overcome the con- stipation in a, simple and easy way. I am going to suggest that you follow the same method I outlined a few months ago in a series of articles on Constipation. It has helped every one who has properly tried it. This method of treatment is very simple does not upset the stomach in any way and yet is very effective. You will like it. After you have proven to your satisfaction that the suggestion which have made to you are of value, then I am going to suggest that you take up a dietetic treatment which WfH1 gladly explain to you and which will secure for you relief from indigestion and it's many following III conditions

HOME HEALTH CLUB

(Edited by pr. David H. Reeder,
 Chieago.)
 Real Helps: Many years agoa when [ first started the Home Health Club work I received at letter from a null t1-milli onaIre of Boston, who was and is still quite famous as a practical phiIanthropist. He spoke very hi gh- ly of my articles. on health. It.. was an innovation and probably the first regular health department perma- nently established by any of the big newspapers. This practical business man advised me to not try to do too much for nothing; he put it this way t'The only kind of philanthropy that eever amounts to anything and real Iy helps people is the kind that pays 5 per cent" That puzzled me a bit until he explained. These articles in this paper are not charity, the sub scriber pays for the paper and in or der to get more subscribers the pub fisher seeks in every way to give his patron the utmost value for his mon ey. In the advertising field the best medium of publicity is the newspaper that best serves the interest of it's patrons in news and educational ser vice.
 Newspabers are the greatest educa- tors in the world today, and were two decades ago when the Home Health Club first appeared. Now nearly all of the best newspapers nave regu- lar Health departm ent- The good which the readers of this paper get is paid for and the sale of the Home Health Club books keeps up the other expenses of the club, and although 1t might be hard oto figure out just where the five per cent come in, we long ago found the meaning of the millionaire's suggestion. The only kind of Help fitness that really helps is to teach people how to help themselves. That is the work of the Home Health Club.

women was their greatest human de- sire This was the necessity of the hour which the noble men and wo- men of the committee and their as sistants met with capacity and sym pathy which has fully aided the af- fIicted and has won the respect and admiration of all who knew the true measure of their achievement. No demand of service was refused, no want left unsatisfied. That these men and women had the capacity to dodo so was no accident They had spjrung from a race of pioneers whose fore-fathers had made exist ence possible only by accomplishing the seemingly impossible.
 Their ability was the result of a. life's upbuilding in force, self-con- troI and kindHness. They could act when all was chaos, because life with them had been a training school for high efficiency. Thus they met the situation in all it's difficulties and realized the highest objective of man kind in service to their fellows in the broadest sense Tn this work they had the assistance of scores who made a. vocation of public work. High on the roll of honor will stand those who gave their best with generosity and chivaIry. full worthy of the ideals of our generation
