Of Anti Crusade

Correspondence OF the Associated Press
PARIS, Nov. S. - 10 strong drinks for
anyone before noon, and no strong drinks
at any hour for women and young people
or both sexes under IS years of age
Such Is the government order that has
finally opened the eyes of the wine mer-
chants to the earnestness of the anti
alcohol campaign in France. BY strong
drinks" are meant all beverages testing
over eighteen degrees of alcohol They
include most of the "aperitifs" or appc-
Tiers. and all brandies and liqaeurs.
In the opinion of most wine merchants
the measure kills the noon appetizer. and
the prospect of the loss of a considerable
portion of their receipts has brought
about an aggressive attitude on the part
OF the liquor trade IF we can't pursue
our business" they say. I'VE can no
longer pay our heavy rents" AS the
wine merchants are among the few who
have paid their rents regularly. their
menace has involved protestations from
real estate owners
ANY attempt to suppress the sale of
alcohol in wine shops before noon" de-
clares the secretary of the Liquor Deal
ers' association, will simply result in a
far greater consumption-exactly the
contrary of what is desired. The work
man who takes small liqueur glass of
brandy in his coffee at the wine shop
will take his coffee at home and pour
into IL without measuring the alcohol that
he can buy by the quart at any grocery
store; consequently more drunkenness in
stead of less
Distlllers. who have foreseen further
restrictions in the sale of alcohol, have
anticipated them to a certain extent One
of them that produces a beverage that
largely resembles absinthe reduced the
strength of his product from forty de-
grees alcohol to twenty-three degrees.
The temperance advocates and govern
ment authorities contend that IL the
strength of such drinks may be reduced
from forty to twenty-three degrees with
out appreciable harm to business, it can
be further reduced to less than eighteen
degrees with great benefit to the public
Many wine merchants also philosophic-
ally conclude that the man who drank
strong liquors will content himself with
nilder ones. The attitude of the drlnkeI
himself seems to bear out this theory
for the most part he takes 1t all as a
good joke, with no thought of resistance

10 Help Reduce Demo Shortage

Whaddya think of this here c. w. Nc
Cune, recently appointed collector OF GUS

postoffice by saving the Irvine with
which bundles of letters are tied and
USING It again instead Of throwing It

Colonel McCune saw a Washington dis

Assistant Postmaster General Blakeslee
had called attention to the fact that
many postmasters were saving the Irvine

and thus cutting down considerably the
S2,0O0.0OO annual Irvine bill of the govern
ment. So Colonel McCune gives a
chuckle. calls for scissors and paste.

School Girls Hear
Secrets of Beauty

Some infallible beauty secrets were dis
closed by Mrs. Ruth Butts Carson of the
Boston Dress league to several hundred
high school girls at the Central High
school Thursday afternoon. The sweet
young things hung upon her words OF
wisdom and at the close accorded her
much applause. Mrs Carson is en- route
TO the Pacific coast, but plans to return
to give a series of talks to school girls
and also q number of parlor talks. She
advocates a course in beauty and sim
plicity of clothes to be established in the
local schools.
Don't powder or paint-common boards
are the only things that are ever white
washed" Mrs. Carson told the girls.
Don't wear silks. satins or velvets, or
discarded party dresses to school"
Flimsy lace blouses. highly polished
nails, short wells, hair ribbons. the well
known dip" in the hairdress and picture
hats worn to school or business were
among the things decried by the dress
expert
Aeroplane, windmill and butterfly bows
on hats, at the moment most popular,
were swatted by Mrs Carson.
Your dress should express your char
acter or your occupation" suggested
Mrs. Carson. THE fabric should be de-
termined by your occupation and your
pocketbook The lines of the dress should
follow the natural lines OF the figure,
with the waist line somewhere near where
your waist is" This sally brought peals
OF laughter from the school girls.

the pockets" She has these handy af-
fairs on all her gowns, some of them

WHO SUCCEED
IN WESTERN CANADA
Those Who Exercise Thrift, Prac-
tice Due Economy, and Adopt
Reasonable Methods Are
Sure to Prosper.

Those who are interested in devel-
oping the agricultural resources Of
Western Canada in bringing to the
notice of those whom they desire to
take part in this development present
only the facts. There has never been
given the impression that farming in
Western Canada could be carried on
without effort or labor, but 1t has been
successfully stated that better results
can be secured with less outlay OF
capital, either in money or labor, than
anywhere else on the continent. This
has been proven time and time again.
Hundreds of cases could be cited
where men have taken up farms,
either homestead, or purchased from
railways or land companies, and with
little capital at the start have ac-
quired competence, have established
good homes for themselves, and pro
vided sure future. They have COM
Portable homes and all their surround
ings are comfortable, speak Of the re-
ward that their thrift has accom-
plished.
Carl Dickan, of Russian Poland lived
in Pittsburgh, Pa, for fourteen years,
and saved up 5000. In 1903 he took
the 5000 with him to Alberta. His own
story is that he bought quarter sec
tion, for which he agreed to pay
$1,000 In 1904 had thirty acres Of
crop, threshed 900 bushels In 1909 /
bought another quarter. I now have
one hundred acres under cultivation,
and have never had a crop failure.
Have threshed forty-seven bushels of
wheat per acre, but the average has
been about forty. My oats for the
eleven years that I have been here
averaged forty-seven bushels to the
acre / now have horses, Az head
of cattle, SO hogs, which I consider
worth $4,000. have a thousand dol
lars worth of farm implements and

consider this first-class mixed farm
ing, dairying and poultry raising coun-
try, as / think that it is apparent that
have had some success. The only
help that had was my Oldest boy,
who was s years old when / arrived
In Alberta"
About fifty miles west of Wetaski-
win there is a partially timbered dis
trict lying between Buck Lake and
Pigeon Lake. All this land is ready
for homesteading, and judging from q
letter received by a resident there,
this would seem to be an ideal place
for farmer who desired such sur
roundings. This settler lives on the
shore of Buck Lake, his land is willow
brush, which is easy to clear, Some
of the lumber is good saw timber,
and lots of good logs for buildings can
be had, as we'll as rails for fencing.
For wheat growing the soil is excel
lent. Water is easily secured, fishing
is good and plentiful and game is any
thing but scarce. The settlers are
mostly from the United States and
Canada. da.-Advertisement.

Eat Less Meat and Take Salts for

NeutraIize Acids.

Uric acid in meat excites the kid
neys, they become overworked; get
sluggish, ache, and feel like Jumps of

bladder is irritated, and you may be
obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night. When the kid
neys clog you must help them flush
off the body's urinous waste or you'll
be real sick person shortly At first
you feel a dull misery in the kidney
region, you suffer from backache, sick
headache, dizziness, stomach gets sour,
tongue coated and you feel rheumatic
twinges when the weather is bad.
Eat less meat drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four
ounces Of Jad Salts; take a table
spoonful in glass of water before
breakfast for few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This fa-
nous salts Is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for
generations to clean clogged kidneys
and stimulate them to normal activity,
also to neutralize the acids in urine,
so 1t no longer is a source of irrita-
tion, thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in
jufe; makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active. Druggists
