Just One Wife's Story

While the following story, which appeared in the
Chicago Tribune the other day, is only one Of many,
it is so full of human interest that we reprint it here
Last night a thin, little, gray-haired woman was locked in a
cell at the Sheffield avenue police station. 1t was Mrs. Erik,
charged with the murder of her husband. She dried her tears
on a worn black shawl she wore, and, half in German, half in
English, brokenly told her story.
George was all right when he first came back from the hos
pha1," she sobbed. "But it was on Tuesday when he started to
talk out of his head. He said a flock of ducks was flying over
his bed and said the furniture was moving about. I asked the
doctor about him, and he said it was the snakes
Last night two men came to see hin-friends, they said.
One was Louie Bruner, a saloonkeeper on C1ybourn avenue.
The other man I did not know. They said: Come out and
take an automobile ride, it will do you good But we said no,
he must not go out. had a bottle of whisky in the house,
was to give him half a teaspoonful twice a day. He drank half
a glass before the men left. We went to bed. He woke up at
5 o'clock and was out of his head.
1--WE made him go back to bed, Margaret, my daughter, and
J, but he got up again at 7 o'clock. When l got up George had
a butcher knife in his hand. I don't know where he got it, but
he must have grabbed it as he fell near the table. Margaret and
I chung to him and screamed, but he broke away from us. He
backed to the other side of the room and came at me with the
knife.
He struck at me with the knife and cut me over the eye. I
came at me again, cutting me on the hand. I struck him again
with the shaker.
"There was a cut on his head where I had hit him, but he
wouldn't stop. He rushed at me again and again, and every
time I struck him on the head. I was beside myself with fear
that he would kill Margaret and me, and l struck him with all
my strength. I must have hit him seven or eight times before

Uncle Joe Cannon Reelected.

The Champion Of Fair Play, one of the organs of
the liquor interests in Chicago, displays a picture of
Uncle Joe Cannon which represents him with a smile
similar to that OF a Maltese cat after it has eaten the
pet canary.
Underneath is the inscription, The Noblest Ro-
man of Them ALL"
This would indicate that the liquor interests
claim Uncle Joe as their friend. We notice, however,
that there was no picture of Lawrence Y. Sherman in
the Champion of Fair Play.

Beer and Bread

Some publicity shark has suggested to the brewers a new
motto sentence to head their beer advertising "The purpose
of this advertisement is not to induce people to drink more beer,
but to influence more people to drink beer" The inventor of
the phrase won't think SO highly of his shrewdness, however,
when some day he realizes the hypocrisy which this formula
betrays on its very surface. If beer is really the good thing
which the brewers pretend, then there is Just as much reason
more people to drink beer.
The fact, on the other hand, that tic brewer considers it
good tactics to tell the public that he Is not trying to induce
users of his product to use more, is of itself a tacit acknowl-
edgment that he knows beer is not wholesome for those who
drink it. Nobody ever heard of a baker advertising that he
was not trying to induce people to eat more bread, nor of a
sugar dealer who took it as a virtue to himself that he would
not attempt to increase the amount of sugar consumed by his
customers. The effort to curry public favor by this attitude in
regard to beer amounts, therefore, to a direct confession that
beer is noxious.
In the same connection the brewers are quoting claimed
opinions that beer is liquid bread" The assertion is made
that a quart of beer is equal in food value to three-tenths of
a pound of bread. If that is actually true, beer is enormously
expensive in comparison with bread, and the economical man
ought to buy his nutriment in solid form. But as a matter of
fact, the whole argument about beer and liquid bread begs the
entire question. Nobody denies that beer has nutritive elements
in it. But the mischief of it is that the man who takes beer
takes poison along with the nutrition, for not even the brewers
now dare insult the intelligence of the people by asserting that
any part of the food-worth in beer resides in its a1cohol-The
Continent.

THE TARIFF AND SUGAR

act, the consumption Of sugar from
March to June 10 in the territory
above mentioned was 1893 900 tons In

in 1913. Thus the increase ID con-

been 145 200 tons. This is one Of the
results Of Democratic rule. The
