WAR AGAINST ALCOHOL.

Get on the water wagon!" is now
the slogan of the New York health
department. It's head, Dr. Sigismund
s. Goldwater, says that anything
which affects the health of the people
of a city is a subject of concern to
the health officials" and in accord
ance with this view he has declared
war On liquor. ut is nonsense" he
says, ito go on fighting disease and
crime If we don't do something to abol-
tsh the chief factor in causation.
There are too many people sick from
liquor in New York city-that's enough
for me. I want it understood
that this is to be a real fight. 1t is
not enough to make occasional depre-
catory mention of alcohol and it's re-
suits; we must have definite antial-
cohol program. The work of the
health department in this field will
henceforth be systematic, aggressive
and unremitting." Every means of
publicity will be utilized in this cam
paign. It will be spectacular and in
the vernacular, the rich mans cham
payne and highballs, as well as the
poor mans third rail" whisky and
beer, will be the object Of attack.
For months the New York state
board of health has been giving out
to the press of the state, under the
title Health Hints" strong state
ments concerning the injurious effects
of alcohol. Therefore the action now
taken by the New York city board is
not great surprise. 1t is being warm
ly commended by members Of the
medical profession, and without doubt
health officials Of other cities will fol-
low the lead.

HAD THE LAUGH ON HIMSELF
Miser Got Away With the Oatmeal
and Also Succeeded in Saving
Precious Whisky.

]. F. Hartz of Detroit, the doyen of
the American Surgical Trade associa-
ton. said at the fiftieth annual con.
vention in New York:
"The-war has kited the price of car
bolic acid UP to $1.65 pound-it sold
before the war at nine cents a pound.
The hospitals that use carbolic acid
now have to be as economical and
sparing as old Josh Lee.
odd Josh Lee was a miser, and he
breakfasted every morning on oat-
meal. To save fuel he cooked his
weeks supply of oatmeal on Sundays.
This supply. by the time Saturday
came around, was pretty stiff and
tough and hard to down.
One Saturday morning old Josh
found his oatmeal particularly unap.
petizing. 1t had crust on it like
iron. He took mouthful of the cold,
stiff mixture-then he half rose. think.
ing he'd have to cook himself some
eggs.
But he hated to give in. He hated
to waste that oatmeal So he took
out the whisky bottle, poured a gen
erous glass and setting it before his
plate, he said:
Now, Josh, If you eat that oatmeal
you'll get this whisky; and if you
don't you won't
The oatmeal was hard to consume
but Josh, with his eye on the whisky
managed it. Then, when the last
spoonful was gone, he grinned broad
ly, poured the whisky back into the
bottle again, and said:
Josh, my son, l fooled you that
time, you old IDIOT Washington
Star.

DO 1T ALONE.

DO 1T ALONEs
The Rotary club of Manchester,
England, recently gave a dinner at
midday to Harry Lauder, the come
dian. A Scottish menu was served
in his honor, the haggis figuring promi-
nently. The Cock O. the North" was
duly played by piper and on the table
were beer, wine and spirits.
Said Harry to his hosts:
1--WE, as Rotarians, meet as bust
ness proposition in the middle of the
day, when drink is not necessary.
You may take one, two or three and
go back to business 'muzzy.' You
can't do your business If you are in a
state of 'muzziness.' When you have
finished you can drink as much as you
like but do it alone. If you are going
to hell, go by yourself; don't drag
anyone with you. I have gone into
clubs-not often, thank God-and
seen a fellow come in when every
other place was closed. He was re-
garded as a jolly good fellow, and
everybody clapped him on the back
and laughed Did his people at home
laugh?"

CHICAGO GOING DRY.

Billy Sundays message to Chicago
to the effect that Batter Booze has
three balls and two strikes called on
him." prompted Chicago Tribune to
interview some of the downtown sa-
loonkeepers. This what one oldtimer
said:
Three balls and two strikes isn't
putting 1t strong enough. The bats
half swung on the third strike now,
way over the ball. You can go from
one end of the loop to the other and
crisscross, and you won't find single
saloonkeeper making money In some
where between three and five years
this towns going to be dry as Evan
ston. The women are going to do it,
and I don't much blame them. It's
the women the things hit. Who suf-
fers when a good fellow making SIS
a week, shows his sporting blood
by spending four or five of 1t over
the bar ON pay day? Say, it's trag-
edy for that womani So, what's she
going to do? Just stop it, put her foot
down and her vote down. Three balls
and two strikes, Ell? You can just
call that third strike now"
There's no doubt about it, said
another, Chicago is going dry. We
all know that, and so far as we are
concerned down here in the loop, 1t
might as well be dry now"

PROHIBITION PROHIBITS.

Incidentally, one of the interesting
reults of the prohibition sweep which
is causing comment here is indicated
by the New York stock market reports,
says a Washington Cd. c. correspond
emit. About ten months ago the shares
of the Distilleries Securities company
were quoted around nineteen and
twenty-and on one occasion twenty
two. Then they tobogganed down to
fourteen, fluctuated there short time,
and took other drops, until they were
quoted two and half and five and a
half. This is the lowest record ever
reached, and is credited to the fact
that many distilleries in the dry and
prospectiveiy dry states have gone
into voluntary liquidation, While in
Ohio and Illinois many brewery corG,
panies have been placed in the hands
Of receivers.
