IN RUSSIA.

IN RUSSIA.
From July to December there were
recorded in Petrograd in 1913 ninety
seven suicides, but in 1914 only four
teen. The same phenomenon was OBJ
served in Warsaw, where during the
first half of 1914 there were recorded
419 suicides, and during the second
half only 205. The reduction Of the
number Of small loans made by the
pawnshops, and the increase Of the
deposits in the savings banks, were
among the further gratifying results
OF temperance. For the first two
months Of 1915 the savings banks of
Petrograd received deposits exceed
ing the figures for the corresponding
months of' 1914 by one and a half
million rubles (s1500OO), while
throughout Russia the quantity Of de-
posits increased by . hundred billion
rubles (910.000, ,Oo0).

PLEA FOR THE CHILD.

(From Address by FATHER PATRICK
MURPHY Of Texas)
contend tonight that there are
helpless children whose little bodies
are crying out for nourishment-the
food they need-and yet the mother
cannot cook it for them because that
bunch got all the money fiji st! The
little child is crying. I'll tell you. and
/ am sure any doctors in the audi
ence will bear me out, when a child
in the poorer homes is not properly
nourished, its pain is not in the stom-
ach alone: there is not q blood cell
in its little body that is not suffering.
I maintain that you men who are
going to vote wet. should think of
this: There is not q blood cell in
the child's body that is not crying out
to your God against you.
In your city there are little wasted
hands raised up in pleading. You will
find them in the homes of your drunk
ards. You will see the faces of the
little ones. thin, emaciated and telling
pathetically Of their hungry bodies.
These little children are praying that
you will decide . great question re-
gardless Of what you seem to lose
by 1t.

HERE TO STAY.

HERE TO STAY.
The following Is quoted from letter
written by Senator Moses E. Clapp of
Minnesota to George w. Perkins. chair
man of the Progressive national COM
mittee: 1.-The prohibition movement to-
day differs from that movement in
other times. When you and I were
boys. every spring there was seen a
temperance agitation and everybody
took the pledge. Some kept it and
some did not. The present movement
is entirely different. There is no hys-
terra or excitement about it. It il
simply calm. deliberate judgment on
the part Of the American people, from
the man who employs to the man who
is employed. that the saloon is a men
ace. Having come in this quiet way.
free from hysteria and excitement, and
a. result Of deliberate judgment, l
am inclined to think 1t is here to stay,
and II times are good, is liable to be
more of factor than we sometimes
suppose"

NO MODEL LICENSE LAW.

NO MODEL LICENSE LAW.
Major Dan Morgan Smith was for
four years general counsel Tor the
liquor organization known rs the
Model License league. The following
paragraphs from an address of his
shows why he threw up that position
and is now speaking and working for
prohibition.
For four years advocated the pas
sage of a model license law as a
means Of lessening the evils of drink
AS the head of the law department Of
one of the three largest liquor asso-
Citations In America, maintained that
its passage would take the liquor
dealers out of politics and the law
breakers out of the liquor business.
Was l wrong? shall never
know, for the liquor crowd were pay
ing me to talk reform and paying 9TH
ers to defeat reform!
The model license law was efYec-
tive as . vote-getter. but it never
cleaned out one dive. never effected
one reform. for. although advocated in
every night against prohibition In the
Last six years. It has never been en-
acted in any place. Its advocacy has
fooled more decent people into voting
with the liquor crowd than all the spe-
cious nonsense about taxes and per-
sonal liberty put together. Can we
expect laws from the liquor camp
that will eliminate the dive, or lessen
drunkenness or stop the sale Of liquor
to minors? Can We expect brewery
agents to pass laws that will take
away the license of brewery-owned'
saloons? Can We expect legislators,
nominated and elected by the brewery
interests. to pass laws that will take
the liquor business out of politics!'
No. the only thing we can expect from
the liquor people is Just what We hare
received in the past-lying promises

me speechless.

the meal drew to an end.
Looking up from my empty plate, !
declined politely: and we followed her
signal to rise.
She led the way into that small
room overlooking the garden where l
had been twice received by Madame
de Vassart. Here she took leave of

On the wall . cat sat, summing her
sleek tanks. Something about the ami
NAL seemed familiar to me. and after

Abandoned by her mistress and now

And then my reveris ended abrupt

me to my feet. There she

on a neck Of snow.
For the first time she showed en-
barrassment in her greeting, scarcely
touching my hand. speaking with
new constraint in q voice which grew
colder as she hesitated.
