PROTECTION OF HOME.

Our chief object is the protection
Of Che home from whatever hurts or
destroys. We have learned through
the stern yet ofttimes pitiful logic of
events that alcoholic drink is the
great Misunderstanding .heart-breaking
evil. We are working for the over
throw OF the legalized liquor traffic.
Our last national convention unanf-
mously voted to use it's extensive
equipment and its utmost influence in
the effort to secure an amendment to
the national constitution in accord
ance with the resolution introduced in
congress by Hon. Richmond Pearson

sale. the manufacture for sale, trans
portation, importation or expectation

When an ESKIMO Dies.

When an Eskimo is dying you will
notice the inmates of the house NOV
Ing everything out of doors; otherwise
1t would be contaminated by the pres
ence of the dead man and rendered I'M
6t for use. Among some tribes the
dying man himself is borne outside.
He is never taken out through the en-
trance tunnel but always through the
smoke hole or back of the house, and
the passage is then closed SO that his
spirit will not find its way back. The
Eskimos appear to have an uncanny
presentiment of the approach Of that
dread spirit who comes to one and all.
When you see them preparing the
graveclothes of one of their number
who is Ill you may know that his end
is near do not think that they do
anything to hasten the end, although
they may stab or hang the hopelessly
infir1n at their own request. It ap-
pears to be an instructive feeling which
Is common to primitive people and
which is often noticed In the lower
animals.-W World Magazine.

VIEWPOINT OF The ENEMY.

We always scan the liquor papers
with interest and growing satisfaction.
They indicate from the viewpoint Of
the enemy the very encouraging ad-
vance Of the temperance march, and
the reports from their watch towers
strengthen our faith and increase our
courage. What is meant for note of
warning to the liquor interests comes
as word Of cheer to the teetotaler
Indeed, II 1t were not that we object to
supporting the liquor trade by sub
scribing for It's periodicals., we should
say to every ant-liquor man and
woman, especially to the weakened
among US, take Q liquor journal"

writings do not mince words when 1t
comes to setting forth the situation.

Pickpockets,


Pickpockets ordinarily travel In mobs

age runs from eighteen to thirty-fve.
Their hands are soft. show no signs of
work and the fingers of all except the

of the wire" are long and slender.
Their eyes are shifting and furtive.
Their complexion is generally sallow
and without distinct color, this being
due either to prison pallor in types or
to the use of cocaine or other drugs.
The cocaine users show drawn fea.
lures, prominent cheekbones and usu-
ally have distinct rings around the
eyes. The temperament of pickpockets
is high strung, because of the dangers
of the profession or from the use of
drugs. At the same time they are po-
lite almost to the point of obsequious-
ness. They seldom carry weapons and
almost never resort to force. On duty
they dress to suit the occasion. gener-
ally well. but not conspicuously. They
avoid wearing anything that might

ABsTINEncE-oNLY SAFE POSI-


Total abstinence is certainly per-
sonal prohibition. and personal pro-
hibitionists ought to vote for national
prohibition. 1t is the moderate drink
or that supports the saloon, sustains
the brewery and the distillery and
breeds the degenerates that fill our.
prisons, our hospitals, poorhouses
and insane asylums. l have treated
some 5000 inebriates in my profess
sional career, all before without ex-
ception were moderate drinkers, and
In 800 carefully tabulated records OF
family history there was shown some
form Of degeneracy present In the di.
rect line Of descent and collateral
branches. the useof narcotics in some
form being present in the parental
history. The descendants of the ha-
bitual moderate drinker do not escape
the evil Of the alcoholic faint, In some
form Of physical. mental, moral de-
generacy. The only safety is total abb
stinence, and this must be impressed

When pens and ink and other writ

great many years ago they were sold
by peddlers from house to house. After
awhile a few dealers In writing ma

distinguish the two classes OF paper
sellers the man in the stall was called
q stationer, and the goods he sold came
to be known as stationery. Wisconsin
