MUNsrEReURo ON SALOON.

The late Prof. Hugo Munsterburg
of Harvard, recognized authority in
America on German ideals, gave to
the public in 1907 this, opinion Of the
saloon: E.r..
There Is nothing more degrading
and no more atrocious insult to civil
lied life than the American saloon. It
has poisoned the social atmosphere
for the masses; in It the workingman
squanders his savings, and the healthy
man devastates his energies and be-
comes wreck. Political corruption
irradiates from the saloon into the
whole public life and thousand ways
lead from the saloon to the peniten-
tiary. 1t is blessed movement which
now turns with overwhelming energy
against the horrors of this evil and
source Of infection. There may be dis
agreements as to the best ways and
means, disagreement whether strict
prohibition or education towards tenn
perance is the more reliable meth
cd; but there is no disagreement as
to the fact that the saloon has to be
wiped out, and the day seems near
indeed when--thanks to women-the
fight against the saloon will be taken
up in almost every state"

SECOND EMANCIPATION.

In high moments Abraham Lincoln
dreamed Of the coming Of the hour
when in all the land there should be
found no slave. and he lived to see
the dream come true, and with his own
good hand he unlocked the bar that
held race captive. But that was
not all his dream. He dreamed Of the
coming Of day when In all the land,
the land he loved. and for which he
gave his life, there should be found
no drunkard made by government
sanction. He died and did not see
that half Of his great dream realized,
but his countrymen do not forget, nor
shall they until in the high empire Of
mighty power they commission. an
other man from the selfsame room in
the capitol at Washington to write
the emancipation Of the land from the
liquor traffic.-Ex. Gov. J. Frank

MARksMANsHIP.

In Sweden three corporas and three
privates were used in test to deter
mine the effect Of alcohol upon pre-
cision. During the days of the frst
test the men were entirely abstaining,
while during the second series of
tests they were allowed two-thirds of
wineglass of brandy a short time be-
fore the firing and an equal amount
of alcohol In punch on the evening
before. In the quick-f1ring tests, on
the alcohol days, they hit the target
on the average only three times out of
80 shots, but on the abstinent days the
average was % and 20 hits. The men
were found to be similarly affected by
alcohol during tests for endurance of
sustained firing.

Kingdom of Elba from the top of its
highest peak. Yet man more modest
than the great CorSican might have
been well content with this fair and
rich little island, to say nothing of the

Eiba today has come into new i'm
portance, owing to the war stimulated

purest iron ore in the world is found
here in beautiful crystals although
the quantity is not great enough to be
OF any wide significance.
The little isle includes all manner of
little industries in it's 10 by IL mile
confines. On the lower slopes there
are fertile little valleys, and along the
beach tiny fishing industry manages
to thrive. Besides the iron mines
there are famous stone Quarries, and
the scenery is rugged and imposing on
miniature scale. Had Napoleon been
philosopher he might well have
found contentment here.
But Napoleon was n general and
builder; instead of settling down to en-.
