he was for several years the able gen.
eral counsel of the Model License

Of temperance, and thus writes: AR

ible have failed me; for the founda-
ton of my faith and the corner stone
of my arguments was the failure of

stone is displaced, my structure has
fallen, and It remains for me to help
build another, founded on a new faith,
with corner stone as enduring as
the truth, and that faith shall be
called Temperance, and the corner

at Ketchikan. Alaska, after talk tc
the children by Mrs. Cornelia Temple
ton Hatcher, president of the territor
ial w. c. T. u, and excitedly an.
nounced to her mother that she was
going to sign the mustard roll" Mrs
Hatcher repeated the information to
her audience that night and told them
that the temperance forces intended
to put considerable ginger into the
campaigns for prohibition and the
children would supply right smart
of mustard" The combination would
make plaster that would draw every
dry voter to the polls on November

PLATFORM BREAKING
WILL CONTINUE

Refreshed by long summer vaca-
ton and encouraged by its record in
the past, the Democratic party will be
ready to resume the swinging of its
axe upon the Baltimore platform when
Congress reconvenes in December.
And the Democratic axe certainly has
remarkable demolishing power There
are few planks remaining intact in the
platform on which the party got into
power, and those few will undoubtedly
go with the others to the splintered
heap.
The reduced cost of living plank was
perhaps one OF the most notent of
those that were smashed at the first
opportunity, though the whack, whack,
of the axe was heard at the same time
on the plank which pledged the party
to preservation of the merit system. 1t
took lots OF hammering to destroy
those two planks but the free tolls
pledge went out of the platform with
only one well-aimed blow. There is
one thing that can be said to the credit
of Democracy, however, it has been
open and frank in the destruction of
the platform. The three planks men,
toned above were broken into a fine
quality OF kindling wood without the
least sign of remorse or shame, and
yet the havoc was wrought no more
openly than in the case OF destroying
the pledge of economy. From the day
of its installation in power, the Demo-
cratic party lost no opportunity to
knock and hack and silver that econ
omy plank. The same is true OF the
efficiency plank. Indeed, there seems
to be much display of glee as the lead
ers of the administration dance around
the few scattered remains of the eff
cheney pledge.
! And there is to be no cessation of
the axe swinging. The single-term
plank is still untouched but the weapon
of destruction is now swinging high,
ready to crash upon that hated pledge.
1t is apparently doomed to destruction.
1t will 90 along with that other sub
stantial but already demolished pledge
mot to injure legitimate industry" II
can hope for no better fate. 1t will lie
in the scrap heap beside the plank
which pledged the party to the 'devel-
opment of merchant marine without
imposing additional burdens upon the
people," 1t stands no more chance OF
survival than does the plank which
promised national aid in the construc-
ton of post roads.
What there is left of it, it is a sorry
looking wreck, though it is still some
platform compared with what it will be
after the Democratic party has had an.
other chance at it. Though it was
solemnly declared TO be a platform OF
"pledges made to be kept when in
office as well as relied upon during
the campaign" it served its purpose
prior to election day and has no further
usefulness. 1t was truly not "molasses
to catch flies;" it was "hook to catch
suckers"

FOR THE SAKE OF OUR BOYS.

A mother having expressed her re-
greet at the lukewarmness of a certain
preacher on the prohibition question,
received the reply, "But, my dear
woman, 1t is not necessary to urge
1t. 1t is right and is sure to come.
1t may be twenty or, perhaps, ten
years, but what matters a few years,
more or less?' What matters a few
years?" replied the mother with deep
feeling. "If your boy or my boy are
to be among those who will be ruined
in the saloons in these ten or twenty
years, 1t would seem matter of
infinite importance how soon the
liquor traffic was exterminated."

CHILDREN'S SUMMER COLDS.

1t is wrong to neglect a cold at any
time because it weakens the system
and lays the sufferer open to attack
from other diseases. Wet feet, sudden
changes in temperature and sleeping
uncovered at night cause many chill
dren's colds in summer. Foley's Honey
and Tar Compound gives sure and
prompt relief.-Hites Drug Store.

ALCOHOL, SHOT AND SHELL.

The Reformer, paper OF Western
Australia, writes of the effects of in
toxicating drinks in the expeditionary
force of that state as follows:
A little time ago 10000 troops were
medically certified as sound in wind
and limb. Then alcohol began to put
in it's fine work, and in short time
1000 of them, either for behavior or
sickness, were dismissed. Their
places were soon filled, but neither
the citizens nor the soldiers had learn
ed their lesson, and so whisky or
beer was still regarded as the bond
Of good-fellowship, and the test of
hospitality. Then came along pneu-
monia, that dread daughter of alco-
holism. 1t was pneumonia in the
camp, pneumonia at Albany, pneu-
monia ON the sea, and pneumonia be-
meath the shadow of the pyramids.
Some tardily recovered, others were
laid beneath the turf or the wave be-
fore ever they saw the flash of Turk
ish sword or heard the burst of Ger
man bomb.
Alcoholism and pneumonia indeed
can scarcely be separated, and the
foremost physicians of England now
are saying that they look upon the
previous alcoholic condition of a pa
tient as the arbiter of his life when
attacked by pneumonia. This first
blood in our war was drawn, not by
the bayonets of the enemy, but by
the folly of ourselves. The foolish
hospitality Of the people and the
drinking dens of the state Joined
hands in destroying our defenders.

WHOSE BoYs7

Recent investigations show that
two-thirds Of all the drunkards con-
tract the drinking habit before they
are twenty-one years old, nearly one
third before they are sixteen, and
about seven per cent before they are
twelve. The liquor dealers know this,
and for business reasons they must
create appetite" among schoolboys.
One family out Of every FIVE must fur
nish a recruit for the army of drunk
ards or the trade" must 60 under,
and one wonders II the men who vote
for saloons are willing to furnish
their boys to help support them7

Vegetable fibers are the most COM

rope. Hemp is the most widely used,
although some varieties are made from
manila or wild plantain, cotton, flax

rope, or cable, is now used extensively
because of its superior durability and
