O A WISE MOVE.

The trustees of the Anti-Saloon
League made one recommendation
that we think wholly unwise and that
was the endorsement of the Alabama
law which makes it unlawful for peri.
odicals carrying liquor ads to circu-
late in the State. Many of our ablest
magazines carry liquor ads, but they
also carry information on great quea-
tons of the day that We cannot af-
fard to deny ourselves. We must not
shut off the light because of this one
blot on the pages of. our magazines.
There also are Jul great metropolitan
dailies. They carry liquor ads. Must
we do without them? Why cut off our
noses to spite our faces? The trus-
tees went too far.-Charity and Chill
dren.

By curious horticultural irony the
dahlia, which has become the popular
Idol Of our early autumn flower shows,
possesses a sadly prosaic history, the
London Chronicle remarks. 1t has
been developed from the Mexican tn
bers introduced about one hundred and
thirty years ago by the Swedish bot
anist, Doctor Dahl, for the purely
commercial purpose of supplanting or
experimenting the potato. They did
not "catch on" and the dahlia dish
soon disappeared from British dinner
tables, but our gardeners at once saw
the latent possibilities of the flower,
from which they have evolved the
double dahlia and other delightful
floral fantasies. Thus the dahlia has
exactly reversed the fate of the red
clover, which came to us in the guise
OF garden flower but was found to
make fine forage. The tubers of the
dahlia, too acrid for our taste, are
still eaten in some parts of France.
