BEER WORSE THAN WHISKY.

This Is what the Home Life Insur- ance company of New York has to say about beer:
 "Of all intoxicating drinks, it is the most animalizing. It dulls the intel lectual and moral and feeds the sen sual and beastly nature. Beyond all other drinks. it qualities for deliberate and unprovoked crime. In this re- spect it is much worse than distilled liquors. A whisky thinker will com init murder only under the direct ex- citement of liquor beer thinker is capable of doing it in cold blood. Long observation has assured us that a large proportion Of murders deliberate ly planned and executed, without pas sion or malice, with no other motive than the acquisition of property or money, often of trifling value, are per petrated by beer drinkers"

WHY DRINKERS ARE FAT.


 The labor leaders are beginning to teach through the pages of their jour- nals the nature and effects of alcohol upon the physical organism. The fol- lowing Is from the United Mine Work CTS Journal
 Not all hard drinkers are fat, but the tendency of alcoholics to obesity is too marked to escape notice A well-known doctor says it is because the alcohol usurps the function of the fat, which accumulates. This is how he explains it:
 Tt is noticeable that those addicted to the use of alcoholic beverages often reveal tendency to corpulence which is proportionate to their use of the drug. The fatness is not sign of that alcohol is harmless. It is merely the result of the complete oxidization of the substance of alcohol by the human body. The body will oxidize a twoounce quantity of alcohol in "A hours, and will do it so completely that no trace of alcohol can be found In any excretory substance. This sim ply means that the unnatural heat pro- duced in the body by the presence Of the stimulant answers, for the time being at least, for what would other wise be produced by the expenditure of fats and carbohydrates. These lat ter are the fuel stored up by the body and normally burned up in the pro- duction of necessary bodily heat though not natural heat-and this expenditure is avoided. The fat is therefore stored up in the body un- used. and corpulence is the necessary result. This, of course. is not nor nal condition nor a proper process. It becomes more unnatural with in creasing use of alcohol"

SORTER KINFOLKS

The lawyer eyed the woman in the witness box in patient despair and then he began:
 You say, madam, that the de- fendant IS a sort of relation of yours. Will you please explain what you mean by that-just how you are related to him?"
 "Well it's like this" replied the witness, beaming upon the court. His first wife's cousin and my second cousins first wife's aunt married brothers named Jones, and they were cousins to my mothers aunt. Then, again, his grandfather on his mothers side and my grandfather on my moth CTS side were second cousins, and his stepmother married my hus- bands stepfather after his father and my mother died, and his brother Joe and my husbands brother married twin sisters. 1 ain't never fingered out just how close related we are, but I've allus looked on him as sort of cousin. !"

MY HOME IN ARKANSAS

wrftten For Tne NewarK JournaI ny
 Rev. Josiah Martin In Arkansas I have place, A home never will disgrace; I love my home in Arkansas, 1 love the land, love the law. Chorus. Sing, boys, Sing!
 Shout a loud Buzzs,
 Three cheers for Arkansas. l love the people, gentle, kind, For better friends are hard to find; Her men are brave, her women fair, Her boys and girls they are so dear. Yes, Arkansas, red apple land, With valleys rich and mountains
 grand:
 I make my home beside her hills And sleep to music by her rills. Her timbers are of various kinds, And precious mineral in her mines; Her lakes with fish do sure abound, And in her rivers pearls are found. Rich coal and oil and gas are here, And finest building stones appear, While precious gems and diamonds
 bright,
 Lie in her clay just out of sight. And on her hills both high and low, The finest mellow apples grow; Her fields bear crops of grain so nice, Of anything from corn to rice.N Of all the states 1 ever saw, Q, give me dear old Arkansas; l here can raise my bread and meat, Have every thing so good to eat. And when my neighbors, good and
 kind,
 To visit me they have mind, I'll welcome them, give them seat And then prepare feast to eat. The deer and turkeys are all gone, But hogs and cows are coming on; Fine grass in meadows now we grow, Wheat, oats and rye each fall we SOW. Our lands are of the very best, From north to south, from east to
 west;
 We raise our corn, we raise our cane Make plenty when we have the rain. If we would but diversity, And raise the things we have to buy; Raise cotton just on little spots, The finest stock would fill our lots. So independent we eould be, From debt and want we could be free; To educate we'd have more time, To train our youths while in their
 prime.
 Now as we pass through rolling years, Let's free our minds from earthly
 cares,
 And live life of peace and love, That We all may have homes above.
