SALooNKEEPER ASKS MANY I {
REFORMS IN SALOONS '

When the Liquor Dealers Protec-
tive assn holds it's next meeting a
reformed saloonkeeper' will appear
and demand that the saloons of Chi
cago be enlisted in the ~uplift move
ment.
Chas. Domke, proprietor of bar
at So w. Randolph st., says that he
will drop out of the association if it
refuses to give it's moral support to
his campaign.
Domke wants the saloonkeepers to
obey the laws and not to stay open
after 1 o'clock, not to sell liquor to
minors or drunkards, keep unescort-
ed women from their places, and to
stop gambling and catering to the
criminal element.
He will also urge the association to
seek the repeal of the special bar per-
nit ordinance which allows saloons
to sell liquor till o'clock.

knocking out all but one. He
regained control, and about g.
900 feet lower he met a fusil-
lade of bullets. One Of them hit
his cheek. Others cut the brac-
ing wires and riddled the planes.
He dropped his remaining bomb
and headed out to sea with a
crippled engine and a broken
wing, and reached the water
safely. But the boat had been
shot full of holes, and started to
sink. He plugged the holes, baled
out the water and threw out an
anchor. The anchor refused to
hold, and the wind blew him in
toward the hostile shore. He
started up the battered engine
again, and it set the craft on
fire. He got the fire out, and
was finally rescued by a torpedo
boat.

Common Rates to
Twin Cities Asked
Railroads Directed to Answer
Petition Based on Amendment
of eastman Law

All railroads entering the twin
cities were notified by the Min
nesota railroad and warehouse
commission Friday to appear
within 20 days and show cause
why they should not restore the
former basis Of common rates
to Minneapolis, st. Paul and Min
nesota Transfer from other
points in Minnesota, and vice
versa.
The order was issued upon a
petition from the St. Paul AS
ISOLATION of Commerce, asking
that the three stations be made
an amendment to the eastman
law passed last winter.
Prior to passage of the Cash
man law, it is pointed out, the
cities were treated as a common
point, and they still are for in
terstate shipments. The petit
ton says that producers of the
state would have the benefit of
the large consuming market of
both cities, and that buyers
should have the advantage of
buying in both of the twin cities
on equal terms.

DID You
Know There
Was Money
in Old
Tin Cans!

Now don't go out and begin
looking for money in the old cans
in your back yard.
Here's what | mean.
You know tin is nothing but
plated sheet iron. A very thin
sheet of iron is coated on both
sides with pure black tin. When
cans are made the tops and bot
toms are soldered On.
This tin plating and solder
helps to make very good SPELT-
Err. Spelter is used i'm making
galvanized woven wire fence.
Because of the war which is
using so much lead and zinc for
bullets, SPELTER is getting
very scarce.
So scarce that woven wire
fence prices are likely to go up.
Now about the old tin cans. A
New York Co., has made a lot of
money by collecting them and
melting the tin and solder.
This shows how scarce the
Spelter material is. What does
this mean to you?
Buy your wire fence before
the Spelter shortage makes the
price go up. My advice is to
buy this month.

BILLY SUNDAY PUNCHES
(Cosmopolitan.)

All sins have blue eyes and
dimples when they are young.
A man with good gray mat
ter under his hat can learn more
by stubbing his toe in the dark
than a fool can learn by going
to college.
The right kind of a man new
err loses more than one finger by
fooling with a buzz saw.
The young man who is will
ing to go through life saving
on the second fiddle will never
lead the band.
When the devil wants to run
his claws clear through a man
and clinch them on the other
side, he makes him believe that
fooling with booze won't hurt
him.
The devil hates a happy home
as bad as a saloonkeeper hates
a prohibition preacher.
The man is headed straight
for the pit who is living as the
devil wants him to, whether he
is a gambler or a pillar of the
church.
Nobody spends much time
looking at wax figures in store
windows, but a live man there
who is doing something always
draws a crowd.
The higher you lift a little
man the more he shrinks.
The woman who marries a
man to reform him has more
faith in human nature than St.
Paul had.
