The Continent of January Ii tells the following
interesting story of how the traffic manager of big
railway man upon whom thousands depend for
their jobs-was induced to quit drinking:

Counter Attractions to the Saloon
By Rev. R. L Patterson, LIB, Founder OF
Catch-My-Pal Movement

There is no doubt that many men frequent the
saloons more for fellowship than for drink There IS
a craving for fellowship in every man, and it must
find vent somehow But it is sad fact that, IN some
neighborhoods, saloons have been almost the only
places where laboring can find such fellowship
among their pals Saoonkeepers know this and they
provide music and other of drawing men within
their DOORS
The true counter attraction to the saloon is the
well-ordered home. Temperance workers should try
to have provided better homes for the working people
and there should be place to which men can resort
without the temptation to take strong drink.
I have found that counter attractions to the sa-
doons have been the backbone of the Catch-my-Pal

ed by Delegate at National
Convention.

San Francisco, Cal, June 16.-Del-
egates TO the convention of the Ma
tional Eclectic Medical association
continued today the argument begun
yesterday by DR.. II. L. Henderson, for
mer mayor of Astoria, Ore. when he
stated that he had discovered a rem
edy for tuberculosis, which, in its ap-
plication by him, resulted in the per-
manent cure of 95 per cent OF his pa
tients
This statement was challenged by
DR.. z. B. Shewman of Cincinnati,
Ohio. who said that he had tried the
same remedy with result that 80 per cent
of his patients died. He then demand
ed that Or. Henderson give the as
sembled physicians the benefit OF his
knowledge.
Further discussion revealed that the
remedy as described by DR.. Hender-
son is produced by the combination Of
salicylic acid and gusiacol.
