OH, FOR A DESPOTl

For years we dry, teetotal cranks
have tried to slay the demon Rum,
and from our agitated ranks all sorts
of shrieks and prayers have come.
Such weapons as we're at command we
have employed, as best we knew, and
every corner of the land has heard our
earnest howdy-do. We gain a little
every year, small triumphs follow
every slump; village there,
county here, cuts out the booze and
hits the pump. But, oh! 1t is weary
task, this toiling onward, stage by
stage, while Barleycorn, with jug and
flask, still poisons Youth and murders

we cannot burn the boozing ken, or
lock the door and lose the key-the
Beast nuot linger in ito den, until the
law, that's halt and lame, can be per-
suaded of the truth, and urged to kill
the thing of shame that fattens on the
nations youth. Enlightened Russia
knows the way, great Russia, with her
tyrant czar; he twists his wrist, and
in a day the lid is placed on every
bar. The wish is treason, much
fear, and am shaking in my shoes
/ wish we had a despot here, just long
enough to kill Old Booze.-Walt Ma

In Judge McKinley's court they were
examining talesmen for the trial OF a
boy, who had killed his father. The
lawyers dwelt mostly on the facts OF
marriage. paternity and whether there
had been insanity in the families OF
the men under examination.
When they got around TO Michael
Mccarthy the wait had been long and
he proceeded to whip up.
Asked the first question he galloped
away with this:
my name is Michael Mccarthy and
I live at 1886 Fulton street and I am
thirty-five years old and / am married
and have one child and have never
had any insanity in the family and II

rHE SECOND GENERATION.

Ex-President Taft and his two sons,
Robert w. and Charles p, differ de-
cidedly on the prohibition question.
Shortly after Mr.. Taft vetoed the Ken
yon-Webb bill as unconstitutional
Robert w. Taft, his Oldest son, pub
lished in the Harvard Law Review an
article showing that his learned faith
or was wrong in his conclusions. Quite
recently the ex-president has given
public expression to his opposition to
statewide and nationwide prohibit
tion, but his son, Charles p. Taft, a
member of the Yale trio which met
the Syracuse university team In a
freshmen debate on state and national
prohibition. stoutly defended prohibi'
ton and took the stand that prohibi-
tion laws have been successful where
they have been given a chance, citing
especially Maine and Kansas.

What Causes tuberculosis.

Dr. John North of Toledo, o., is
working on the theory that tubercn-
losis may be due to a lack of lime
in the system, as he says that while
tubercular germs are everywhere, they
only thrive in ripe soil and Just what
is lacking in persons subject to tuber-
cular trouble gives food for thought.
He says that there is less tuber-
culosis among people living in arid re-
gions, and plants in such places have
more lime in their composition than
those growing in humid regions.

The present season has been most
propitious for the growing OF wool, and
the growers expect to reap a big har.
