The history of our reform proves
that it is well-nigh impossible to take
prohibition from state constitution
when once placed there by the voters
of a commonwealth. Constitutional
prohibition is not dependent upon
party politics. Unlike a statutory
law it is not at the mercy OF each in
coming legislature. The liquor traffic
constantly defies the laws of the pro-
hibition states. Nothing short of ma
tion-wide prohibition will give to these
states the power to effectively enforce
their prohibition laws.

TOKENS OF HIGH CHARACTER
Good Manners Recommend, Prepare
and Draw People Together-Make
Fortune Of Ambitious Youth.

We are told much OF utilities, but
it's our manners that associate us. In
hours of business we go to him who
knows, or has, or does this or that
which we want, and we do not let our
taste or feeling stand in the way. But,
this activity over, we return to the
indolent state, and wish for those we
can be at ease with; those who will
go where we go, whose manners DO
not offend US, whose social tone chimes
ours. When we reflect upon their per-
suasive and cheerful force; how they
recommend, prepare and draw people
together; how, in all clubs, manners
make the members; how manners
make the fortune of the ambitious
youth; that, for the most part, he
marries manners; when we think what
keys they are, and to what secrets;
what high lessons and inspiring tokens
Of character they convey, and what
this fine telegraph-we see what range
the subject has, and what relations to
convenience, power and beauty

ARABELLA

Arabella was a beautiful wax doll,
In her day, and was given the best
of care by her mother who was very
fond of her, and when the mother
was too old to play with dolls she
wrapped Arabella in soft cloth and
nut her in a drawer, where she re-
manned for many years.
Then one day she took her out, and
Arabella heard her say to a little girl
who stood beside her:
"This was my best doll when was
a little girl Now / am going to give
her to you. Her name is Arabella, and
you must be very careful of her, for
she is wax and cannot be dropped
without breaking, as your other dolls. +"
But, mother" the little girl said,
cant she be mended If break her?'
NO" said her mother, lit VII
spoil poor Arabella II you drop her
as her head is very soft"
Arabella was very carefully handled
for a few days. She was put in a
pretty carriage and wheeled about
then she was undressed at night and
put into a nice little bed, and she
had a new dress and stylish bon
net, and a number of little girls came
to see her. Her new mother told them
that Arabella was very old and thai

In the Woman's Home Companion
Mary Heaton Worse writes story en-
titled, "The independence of Sarah"
It is full of wise observation of child
life. In the following extract, Alice,
the mother of a family, learns why
her small son Robert does not want
his sister Sarah as a playmate.
"Her sense of justice made Alice
feel that Robert should let Sarah into

There is direct railway running from

was little girl. But Arabella laughed
to herself. She did not feel old, and
she knew if her mother gave her
good care she would always look
young and feel young.
There came day, however, when
her new mother became tired of her,
and she was left all day without be-
ing dressed, and sometimes she would
have to lie in bed for days at a
time with her eyes closed. Al other
times she would be left in her car
riage all night, and there she would
sit, staring into the darkness, and
she would wish her new mother would
put her to bed so she could close her
eyes.
One night Arabella was left in her
carriage on the piazza all night.
"Oh, dear!" thought Arabella. i
will freeze out here in the night ali"
And a big dog came up to her car
riage and shifted at her.
ooh, dear! oh, dear!" she cried.
"What will | do? | am so afraid"
Then the dog licked her cheek and
took off some of the red. Poor Ara
bella almost tainted, but she sat quite
still and looked straight ahead, and
the dog walked away.
! Arabella was glad when the day
light came, but the sun came also,
and her new mother did not move her
carriage, for she was busy making
mud pies on the shady side of the
house. By and by the sun crept up
to Arabella's carriage and then to her
feet, and finally all over her.
"Oh, dear" thought Arabella, will
no one save me? / shall melt.

was very busy with her cooking.
At lunch time the new mother ran
around to the front of the house to
meet her father, and then she saw
Arabella, and such an Arabella you
never saw. Her new mother looked
at her, and ran into the house for
her mother to come quick and see
what had happened to Arabella. Poor
Arabella's face was changed, indeed
the wax had melted and run down he1
cheeks; she looked old and sad.

girl.

She took Arabella out of the car

Owing to the malt and barley sup
ply to brewers being officially limited
to go per cent Of their normal require

for beer for the army in the field, a
decided shortage Of beer is noted in
Germany In order to alleviate con-

to use their allotted quantity Of raw

for earlier consumption.
Brewers who have not sufficient
supplies may purchase available raw
material from other breweries, iR or

ONLY BIRTH COUNTS
IN AUSTRIA ONE MUST BE "5oRN
TO THE PURPLE"
Nowhere on Earth II the Prestige OF
Caste SO Marked as in the Do
mains Ruled Over by Francis
Joseph.

The Austrian nobility usually marry
those of their own rank, with the re-
suit that nearly all the families OF
the aristocacy are related. Princess
Karl. whose mother and father to-
gether had 10 brothers and nine sis
tiers, told a correspondent of Cham
hers Journal that at the last court
ball there were more than a hundred
of her first cousins and that one win
ter at AbbsEia she had not spoken dur
ing a whole week of balls and parties
to anyone who was not connected
either directly or remotely with her
own or Prince Karls family.
1t was thought that the barriers of
caste would be broken down If the
Archduke Franz Ferdinand should sue
| coed his uncle, the emperor; for If his
! morganatic wife, Countess Chotek
| (created duchess of Hohenberg by the
emperor), became empress, despite his
solemn oath to the contrary, the pres
ent rules as to birth could hardly be
enforced. If they were so relaxed as
to permit a lady not of royal birth to
become empress of Austria they would
be relaxed for all those who now suf-
fer exclusion from court for lack OF
princely blood. Princess Karl, al
though she is very broad-minded, could
admit no variation of this rule. In

born that counts, pot what you be-

this sentiment belonged to the middle
