A welkknown druggist says every

TOLL OF 1000 A DAY.

According to Doctor Demme, who
studied ten temperate families" and
ten "intemperate families" for IL years
in the same class of society, the deaths
OF children under five In the latter
group were five times as many as in
the former group-25 against five.
Since the deaths below the age of five
comprise 80 per cent. OF all the deaths,
1t is evidently more than conservative
to take The comparison of adult males
given above as a measure of the raw
ages of alcohol for the total popula-
tion, saye Richmond p. Hobson. in AL
cohol and the Government" If we
were a nation of total abstalners we
would die off at the rate of $50 per
$1,000 of the population, whereas we
are actually dying off at a rate Of
1000 per $1,000. In other words, alco.
hol causes the premature death OF
440 citizens out of every $1,000 of the
population every year, which means
that alcohol kills about 100000 Ameri-
can citizens every year, about 1000 q
day every day the sun rises.

TWO SCENES.

Excerpt from one OF Mrs. L. NJ. N.
Stevens Annual Addresses)
A young society woman. a total alb
stainer, remarked that 1t was very
hard to make strong argument in
favor of total abstinence when there
were so many moderate drinkers in
her circle who were successful in
business and happy in their home
life. To this we say. in your circle
you see but one section at one stage
of action. Let us shift the scene a
little.
A temperance specialist was per
mitted to sit in the Office of certain
sanitarium while the patients came
filing in with barred arms to take their
semi-daily treatment. When the last
one had passed out the doctor said,
"In that line were representatives of
many business enterprises, of educa-
honal institutions, of every profess
sion; men who are still possessors of
large wealth, and others who have
wasted their fortunes and are now
trying to get well that they may be-
gin life anew"

All There Was for Him.

A poor shoemaker's apprentice was
sent to his masters home with some
work. 1t was early in December, and
when the lad arrived at the house he
found the good wife engaged baking
the special bread ready for Christmas.
The smell was delicious, and, shifting
strongly, the apprentice exclaimed
heartily:
"Eh, missus, but your spice loaf
smells grand"
"Ah, well, lad, thee nun tax some

ground on the splendid roads that
crisscross the field of war in western
Europe. Most OF the cars are incased
in e light frame of tough steel plate
that ranges In thickness from three
sixteenths of an incn to a quarter OF
an inch, and that is impervious to rife
and machine-gun fire. All the vulner-
able parts OF the motor. such as the
radiator and steering gear, and In
some of the newest cars the wheels,
are protected by the steel covering
The wheels. both wood ard wire, are
said to withstand the toughest sort OF
usage. Accidents to the tires are
much less common than anyone would
expect The cars carry light arma-
ment-one or two machine guns so
mounted that they can be swung
through complete circle-and a
large supply of ammunition. The
crew. which may number from four to
eight oT more men, are armed with
rifles and revolvers. Some of the cars
have steel superstructure that rises
from the chassis frame high enough
to enable the crew to stand upright,
and that is capped with domed roof,
from which bullets and shrapnel usu-
ally fly of at sharp angle without
even denting the steel.-Youth's Com
