OUR SISTER

Verses written by Mrs. NJ. A. John
Mrs. Julia A. Dory of Idaho Springs,
Colorado, who died November l, 1915,
at the age of 81 years.
Our sister has been called away,
From labor and from care;
To rest till the resurrection day.
In peace she is resting there.
Long had she lived and labored;
With comforts to bestow,
Upon her friends and neighbors;
AS they IL testify, we know.
She looked to God, the giver
OF every good and perfect gift
She trusted in His holy word;
Her Bible, twas gift.
She said she was not afraid to die.
Her sins were all forgiven;
one was trusting In her blessed Lord,
And would meet him up in Heaven.
Dear sisters, brothers, everyone,
Our day is coming near,
When we, too, must be ready
To meet our Savior dear.
We do not weep, as those who weep
Who have no hope in God; ...
Whose heart is set on earthly things
Our hope is in our Lord.
Our Savior who is ever true,
Is watching o'er His own;
And has promised not to leave them
Till He takes them safely home.

Dry Speaker Mobbed

Ellsworth is of the wettest towns in the state
of Minnesota. 1t is a rendezvous for booze fighters
for many miles around. On Tuesday evening, May
IS, John F. Cunneen of Chicago, who for years has
been regarded of the most effective ant-saloon
campalgners IN the country, went to Ellsworth to
deliver address. While he was speaking on the
street the saloon buns got busy. They melted some
boys to throw eggs at Mr.. Cunneen and gathering
the outskirts Of his meeting they raised such noise
to make it impossible for the speaker to be heard
Then they rushed upon him with the evident inten-
ton of beating him up, and would doubtless have
done SO had he not retreated to his hotel
Mr.. Cunneen formerly president of the Cath
Ollie Total Abstinence Union of Illinois, He is
Der in good standing today of the Catholic Total Abb
stnence Union, the Knights of Columbus, the An
cient Order of Hbernians, and is witha esteemed
member of the Machinists' Union of Chicago He is
temperate in speech and never abuses anyone not
even the liquor dealers. The attempt to mob him
simply proves the weakness of cause that is sup
ported by hoodums, and is afraid to let the people
hear the truth
The attempt to mob Mr.. Cunneen also shows
that the vets personal liberty" argument is sham
and fraud. No cause that is supported by mob
violence anarchism and criminal assault can use the
sacred name Of liberty without blasphemy.

THE AMERICAN ISSUE

The analysis shows that the mortality among these
men ranges from 135 to I82 per cent
Mr. Johnson concludes his study follows:
The general conclusions be drawn from the expert
just given, and study of the data from which

l. That the OF alcoholic liquors to an extent
SO moderate that insurance companies have held
against the applicant, tends to shorten life
B. That the heavier mortality be found among the

Mr.. Johnson also made an investigation cover
ing $4,000 lives of moderate drinkers. He divides
these into two classes: first those who drink
two or more glasses of beer glass of whisky;
and second who admitted using two ounces of
alcohol day. but sufficient to intoxicate.
The report shows:

King Alcohol Must Die

By Rev. James X Shields
Former State Superintendent of Illinois League
(Reprinted from Worlds Work.
We are coming, coming,
From every sovereign state
From rockbound old Atlantic
To Paciic's golden gate.
From where the Northern Rockies
Lift their snow-crowned peaks on HIGH
To where the Southern breezes play
Meath soft and sunny sky.
From the land of fluffy cotton,
From the fields of golden grain
From the mountains, from the Valleys

Who have raised their battle cry
