CONCERNS DEMAND ABSTINENCE.

The Milton Manufacturing company,
the American Car & Foundry COM
pany, and S. j. Sinner & Sons of
Milton, Pennsylvania, have issued or
ders demanding that their employees
abstain from alcohol and refuse to
sign license petitions of otherwise in
dicate sympathy for the saloon.
Thirty men were discharged by the
American Car & Foundry company
because they signed liquor license APP
plications.
These companies do not desire to
influence the opinions Of the employ
ees in regard to prohibition, but they
take the stand that the man who signs
a liquor license application does not
properly appreciate the danger of liq-
uor to himself and the community.
He is, therefore. not safe employee
for a concern demanding efficiency.
Indulgence in the use of liquor is
q menace to all business interests"
declared Mr.. George S. Sinner. presi-
dent of the Milton Manufacturing
company. IF the employees should
be protected by the employer, why
shouldn't the employer be as well pro-
tected by the employee? Our employ.
ees have congratulated us upon the
step we have taken"

MUST HAVE SHOCKED JUDGE
What He Regarded as "Dribbllngs" Of
Hay Was All He was Co.
ing to Get.

A distinguished member of the
United States judiciary has discov-
cred that he still has something to
learn in the direction of agriculture
He bought a farm as a summer
home for his family, and finds especial
delight in walking about the place,
commenting on the condition of the
crops, and in many ways showing his
interest in his new possessions.
One evening during the summer he
was strolling over the farm. The
hired man had cut the grass during
the day-a very thin crop-and left
it on the ground to dry. The judge
saw it, and calling his man, he said:
1T seems to me you are very care
less. Why haven't you been more par
ticular in raking up this hay? Don't
you see that you have left little drib-
blings all around?"
For a minute the hired man stared,
wondering If the judge was quizzing
him. Then he replied:
Little dribblings? Why mau,
that's the crop!"

bird Calls and Their Names.

Most of us know the chickadee when
we hear him calling, over and over,
"Chick-a.dee, dee dee, Chick-a-dee, dee.
dee!" But when he sings his clear
whistling note, phoebe, Phoebe we
are likely to mistake him for the
phoebe bird. The chickadee stays In
the North in winter, and the phoebe
does not come North till the early
spring. The phoebe bird sings its
name over and over, a very sweet but
penetrating sound. The peabody bird
says, Peabody, peabody, peabody"
over and over, in rather senseless
way as II he went round in a circle.
Another bird that sings his name is
Bob White, the quail. Only he often
says Poor Bob White!" His notes
90 up and down, and are stronger than
the notes of the smaller birds and may
he heard at a long distance. OF course
these birds do not really sing their
names But people listening to them
have fancied that these names are
what the notes sound like, and so they
have given the bird the name.

down to see for himself some of the

and watched the train pull in. After

DRINKING BEFORE MEALS.
AT meeting of medical society
prominent physician read paper on
"Appetizers," In which he gave the
results of scientific experiments made
at Yale university. DR.. Il. II. Cleve-
land of Flower hospital. New York
city writing OF these to the New York
Times, says:
at seems that TO one group Of stu
dents a good dinner was given with
out alcoholic accompaniment, and In
their case, couple of hours later,
normal digestion was found well ad-
vanced. To the other group of stu
dents the same dinner was given, pre-
ceded in each case by an appetizer
such as cocktail, gin izz, etc. After
the same interval the digestive proc
esses of this second group we're found
on examination to be imperfect. Ger
tain chemical elements in the food
taken showed that the digestive juices
had failed to act upon them, owing to
the presence Of alcohol in combination
with these elements.
Serious and permanent interference
with normal digestion was clearly
proved by these experiments in every
instance. Had the investigations been
carried further, so as to include the
efficiency Of mental action and nerve
reaction. as we'll as efficiency Of d.
gestive faculties, there is no doubt
that precisely similar results would
have been obtained.
"The appetizer, so called. 10 not in
reality an appetizer at all, but is a
devitalizer, pure aid simple, destruc-
tive of the normal processes of the
digestive apparatus and Of the men
tai powers in direct proportion to the
frequency with which 1t is taken"
