WAR TAX AND DRINK.

According to the Springfield Repub- sponsib1e for the increase of the drink
 habit in England. The country found . itself in the position of needing more revenue in order to carry on the war and one of the methods resorted to was the placing of a tax on beer with the result that there has been de- crease in the consumption of malt liquors and an increase In distilled spirits Now England finds that the capacity of its people for certain classes of business has decreased and hibition until, at least, the war has been brought to a close. There is no such talk in Germany, where beer is consumed in large quantities and without any complaint as 70 drunken ness or lessening the capacity of it's labor. The beer there is renowned for it's purity and 1t is used with as much freedom as wine is in France. The Republican argues that 1t may be that England may go to school to Germany on the beer question and may learn a great deal from it.
 The beer consumed in England is SC id to be of a stronger brew than that in Germany and is no doubt more baneful in it's results, but there is general recognition now that the in clination of the English people to drink distilled spirits is injurious, al- though there is no evidence that the reason for 1t Is due to the war tax. If the country resorts to prohibition it will destroy the revenue which it was proposed to strengthen and will open up a question which will be in- tcresting in its development if nothing else. Russia is operating along the same line, but then that is a different country, the manner of living is different and the prohibition plan may not work out the same in each place. Whenever the financial loss which must accompany prohibit tion is referred to. the supporters of that idea say that the saving which would be accomplished would more that is a much disputed point.

MASSACHUSETTS, SENATE ADOPTS
 GOOD RULE.

The Massa chusetts senate has petitions for legislation must be filed on or before the third Wednesday In December before the lcgisla ture con- venes. There was some opposition to this movement, but the argument that some such rule was necessary in ord CT 10 expedite business prevailed and the rule was adopted. There has been some talk along this line in Connecti- cut, but nothing has ever been done about it. There was, however, an an endment adopted which provides that the legislature shall adjourn by a certain time, which has proba bly, the same effect.
 It would seem as if the early filing of petitions would also serve an addi- tional purpose because when the legis- iature meets the members would find their work cut out for them, they could proceed with better knowledge Of what to do and with less liability of friction between measures. Some times bills are introduced early in the session, then time limit Is fixed for the introduction of new business, and it is at this time that the flood oc- CUTS, there often being more than one measure seeking practically the same object, and many of them being of such a nature that the legislature would be justified in rejecting them at once. Some of those measures take Lr a great deal of time, like, for in stance, the bill which has made it's appearance at every session for years providing for the fning Of man in the form of tax if he does not mar ry within a certain time. This bill has been beaten every time and yet as soon as a new legislature meets, up it pops again as fresh as ever. Every legislative body has the same experi- ence and in every such body there has been talk of having them rejected as soon as they are introduced, but some how it is never done. Having all bills filed before the legislature meets is a good plan, because it will give the
 members the right kind of start and places before them at once the busi- ness they; will have to deal with.

Dog Frozen Pointing Quail.
(American Field.)

Joe Vending, of Thorn Lake, is mourning the loss of valuable point CT dog on the peak of Foster Butte. The body of the dog has just been fround, frozen stiff in the rigid point ing stand it had made on beVy or mountain quail. The head and tail of the dog were stretched out on , level with the back, and the left fore leg was lifted and bent at the elbow. It was the pose of a perfect stand and instead of falling over In the snow the dogs body had toppled against a hawthorne bush, where IL stood erect until found.
 No snow fell on Foster Butte from the time the dog froze to death, and the day the body was found, and stretching in front: of the congealed canine were tracks of a big bevy of quail. The bird apparently had hud- died in a hawthorne thicket just in front of the pointer, then flushed and flew to some other part of the noun tain after the dog died.
 MT. Vending went to Foster Butte three weeks ago to round up his range colts and take them to shelter after the temperature had dropped to twenty below zero. Dan, the pointer, accompanied his master into the hills. MT. Vending did not miss the dos until he reached home late at night. When Dan failed to return the fol- lowing day, Mir. Vending set his pet down as the victim of timber wolves, coyote or cougar, and did not return to the mountains to make a search. The temperature remained below zero for more than two weeks, and there has been no thawing weather at the mountain tops since MT. Wend- ling rounded up his horses. Other range men found the frozen dog and brought the body to Silver Lake for exhibit.
 Dan was known throughout Lake county because of his feats in holding points for long periods. MT. Wend- ling says the dog frequently stood rigid on a bevy of quail, grouse or sage hens for two hours. The owner believes there is no doubt Dan froze to death waiting for some one to flush the quarry.

but its area is said to be about 170,000 square miles. The soil is fertile. for the most part red clay mixed with sand. Southeastern Para guay, inclosed by the rivers Para quay, Parana and Apa, Is the home of the white population. while she porthwestern part is inhabited by nomadic tribes of Indians.
 Primarily Paraguay is an agricuI- tural country, and there Is room to produce millions of head of cattle. Tn the years to come no GoGbt Fara- quay will become vast grazing ground, and will help to furnish the world with it's beef supply. Neces- sarily Paraguay must depend upon its foreign commerce.. IL must sell its products and buy its manCfacures and foodstuffs that it does not produce. Very little of Paraguay's products finds its way to the United States, most of it going to the neighboring republics of Brazil and Argentina, whence it is sent to European ports. There has been an increase Tn imports from the United States in the last ten years, but the business done with America is less than one-sxth that done with Great Britain or Germany.
 There are numerous opportunities cnen for Americans in that country"

Bathing the Pig.
Chicago Ncws.) )

One thing, as has been observed by
 the philosophers, follows another. or it may be that one thing. precedes another. This point has never been definitely determined; tho test case of the chicken and the egg Is still pending. Upon the issue of that< cause hangs or may hang the decision as to whether bathing the pig by. railroad corporations is responsible for the high cost of pork or whether the high cost of pork makes it nec- essary for the railroad corporations to bathe the pig. -
 Anyway, the modern, the sanitary. the tired business pig must have its shower bath In transist from hither tn you, according to the testimony of G. k. Villas, general superintendent of the Chicago and Northwestern rail- road, before the Interstate Commerce. Commission. The expense of pro- viding shower baths and other luxur- ious appointments for the pig and Its attendants, according to Mir. Villas, Is one reason why the railroad com- panies respectfully and with tears in their corporate eyes beg to be per- mitted to increase freight rates.
 1t is necessary to bathe the pig MT. Villas says, in order that the pig may not lose weight. Yet to a mere layman it would seem cheaper to,. carry light pig than a heavy one. especially as the freight is most likely to be paid on the basis of the pigs weight at the beginning of It's tour. One must assume, therefore, that the philanthropic railroad wants the pro- duccr of the pig to get it's full value and so conserves its weight. The consumer, Of course, pays for what he gets. though he does not always get what he pays for
 However, we are not considering tho < consumer. It is not being done this year. We are considering the pig.
 In order that its ablutions may be properly given the pig must have caretakers. The pig valets. too. must be comfortably fed and bedded down. All this costs money. So the pe~ tit;oners humbly pray to be permit ted to charge more for the trans portation of the pig.
 Very likely the railroads arc en- titled to charge higher rates: stfII. n thoughtless consumer Of pork chons or sausage might wonder why the pig is not bathed at home and slaurh- tered and shipped as pork. thus rec quiring neither valet nor bath. The sufficient answer is, of course. that all pigs of true culture, 'wherayer found, take as their guiding prln- ciple the beautiful saying, See chi- cago and die"

Tine Use of Tobacco. (FrOn Clinical Medicine.) )

"A physician is often asked about tobacco and many solemn warnings against tobacco are uttered by tsose who do not use it. No agent, not even alcohol. is so universally used in all times and countries as tobacco since it's introduction from America in the early part of the 17th century, and the failure to show that tobacco has in any way injured the human race or increased it's proClivity to disease proves how harmless tobacco is. On the other hand, like any other agent, excess in it's use may do harm to certain functions, which are easily refined. Thus, excess in tobacco de- ranges the action of the heart, and it should be prohibited in all cases of cardiac debility. It, however, should, if possible, be used after meals, for the gastric juice has a great effect in modifying. and. like wise it is best not to smoke in the open air. Thus, a man should not smoke cigar while driving a horse, for the rapid current of air causes a generation in the lighted cigar of a poisonous fusel oil which makes the hand very unsteady.

persons even have read of Hippo power of nature has survived the op- position of twenty-five centuries and saved millions of lives?.
 While statues of Wellington and other military heroes abound in Eng land. there is but one humble memo rial to Jcnncr, who delivered the world from some of it's greatest scourges.
 The features of Napoleon are fla niliar: few would recognize the fea- lures of his compatriot, Pasteur, whose discoveries have saved a thou sand times more lives than Bonaparte sa crificed.
 In our country. while achievements of military heroes are COmmemorated in song and story. in bronze and marble. the father of anesthesia Dr. William Thomas Green Morton, who saved million from suffering and death, is honored only by a modest shaft erected over his grave by his colleagues.
 Cramped in the trenches the soldier eagerly awaits the order of attack or defense, inspired by the thought that he is armed for the fray, while the surgeon under the same conditions must often crawl out and dress wounds while lying flat with shot and shell raining around him. Without the stimulus of combat and the re- liance upon being armed that animate other officers, the surgeon presents superhuman courage unexampled in warfare.

Beware of Sniffling Cat.
Philadelphia North American.

Philadelphia North American.)
 Beware of the cat that sniffles. The animal may carry germs of whooping cough and diphtheria into your homo and among your children.
 This was the warning issued yester- day by pr. ziegler. director of the department of health and charities. in q health bulletin, when he pointed out that too much care cannot be ex- ercised by human beings in regard to keeping domestic animals, because many such animals are the agencies of serious diseases.
 The public seems to be little in- formed of diseases that may be transmitted through domestic anil mals," said Dr. Ziegler. People will shun houses that are placarded for communicable diseases, but will thoughtlessly pet a cat that has come from such an infected home. Cats are known to have transmitted whoop- ing cough and diphtheria. Beware of the cast that sniffles."
 Dr. Ziegler explained that cats, horses, wolves. and even skunks, can cause hydrophobia through q bite, al- though such animals show no signs or rabies. The latter disease may display itself in such animals through their becoming mad, or may be seri- cusly afflicted and yet appear quiet but drowsy and weak, according to Dr. Ziegler.
