THE ANTl-SALOON
LEAGUE PRESS BUREAU

Westerville, Ohio, Sept. 11.-When
in 1893, the Anti-Saloon League was
organized at Oberlin, Ohio by How
ard H. Russell, there were seven
states in the United States, North
and South Dakota, Kanas, Oklahc-
MA, Maine, New Hampshire, and
Vermont, that had prohibition. A
few other states had within them
more or less local option territory.
At the opening of September 1917
a quarter of century after the Or
ganization Of the League, there are rs
states that either have prohibition
or have taken the necessary legal
steps to obtain it, and all the other
states save New Jersey and Nevada,
have large local option areas, some Of
them being almost white Congress
has abolished the liquor traffic in the
the District of Colum bia, all national
parks, navy yards, training schools
for the navy, war vessels and other
grounds and properties. The terri
tory Of Alaska and the island of Por-
to Rico have voted dry
The bone dry federal law which
forbids shipment of liquor into dry
states and which Furnishes severely
these who use the mails to advertise
liquor in dry territory to send liquor
orders from such territory is an &C
hievcmcnt of the present year.
In addition, it is now law that the
manufacture Of distilled spirits for
beverage purposes shall cease during
the war, and that there shall be no
more imporftsattjissYps or expectations in
that PERIOD; that the manufacture Of
wine and baer may also be stopped
if thePreside4t deems it wise, and
that the liquor now in existence may
bG withdrawn ffoin use by being
cqmmandeered.
The Senate, by G. larger vote than
was necessary, adopted the Sheppard
resolution submitting to the states
the question of complete nationwide
prohibition by amendment to the
resolution will come up in the House
not later than the December sess
iCn. Its settlement in that body i'm
mediately after its disposition by the
Senate was prevented by laucus
rule, which prevented the considera-
tion Of any except war measures
Drys contend that the House will
treat the measure even better than
the Senate did.
Following it's submission to the
s5tate, accoding. to the Anti-Saloon
League leaders, will come the cam
paign for it's ratification by the nee
essary thirtyeiX of the forty-eight
to the terms Of the measure, must
be ratified within six years after it's
submission, but dry leaders insist
while no other amendment has been
hampered with time provision,
six years will be ample. They say
that all the dry states will immediate
ly ratify, and that the others will fall
in line within the required sexten-

The Pope's Triple Crown.

Originally the tiara, or triple crown,
of the pope was plain high cap,
much like those In which doges OF
Venice are so often represented in
old pictures 1t was first introduced
by Pope Nicholas / in $50.
Just when the first coronet was add
ed is a matter of uncertainty, but the
second was placed by Pope Boniface
VIII In 1895 and the third by Pope
Urban V about 1893.
1t has been held that the three
crowns refer to the Holy Trinity,
though that evidently could not have
been the original idea, for they would
certainly have not been added one
after the other with an intervening
period in each case of many years.
Some authorities contend that they
denote the three-fold royalty of the
bishop of Rome, one being the symbo
of the temporal power over the Romal
states, another the spiritual powe
exercised over the souls of men, an
, the third the authority over all tn
kings and potentates Of Christendon
, London Tit-Bits.

FEAST OR FAST?
BY DR.. SAMUEL G. DIXON.
Commissioner of Health of Pennsylvania

Romans and start with a feast?
Most people are familiar with the
ancient Roman feast, whose features
we would describe nowadays more ac-
curately with the name of orgy or de-
bauch. These eeasts always made them
sick and the physical reaction would
be such that no food was taken into
the system for some time afterward.
So thet the same result of fast was
arrived at by a different route. My
associate, being a man of humorous
viewpoint, was just accenting this con-
ditlon.
When | asked him why he thought
of the more roundabout way of the
Romans, he replied that you got some
hilarity with 1t. "You get more out
of treating yourself by debauch. than
drugs" he said, and that is the way
a good many people look at 1t, unfor-
tunately.
The Roman custom is recognized
historically as having continued long
afterward in other races, and perhaps
1t is still surviving today in principle
at least, among individuals here and
there.
Still, the mass of our people have a
more sensible view. 1t is known that
"a fast Will relieve nature while she
is coping with the task of overcoming
extra burdens that have been laid upon
the system. The debauch, which is
generally what high livers make OF
their feast" on the contrary is seen
generally as something that overloads
the system and adds to natures bur-
den, even though it mentally stimu-
lates the subject, sometimes to the
point where he might be guilty of
crime. And there is the hilarity-a
thing to be remembered and tempt the
subject to try the same remedy the
next time.

a period of time, they begin to
feel inert mentally and physical
ly: their work becomes bur-
den; eyesight loses its acuteness, While
the natural white of the eye is lost
and it becomes congested, showing
sometimes a yellow tinge; the appe-
tite begins to fail; natural sleep IS
broken up and interrupted, and when
awakening comes, the mind Is puzzled
by confused ideas.
When these symptoms are recog-
nized, men of experience know 1t is
because the food taken has been in ex-
cess of the demands of the body.
Such man was n laboratory asso-
ciate of mine years ago. Occasionally
he would salute me in the morning and
say: "What DO you prescribe, doctor,
feast or a fast?" He meant that
he felt he had been neglecting all
outdoor exercise for long time and
had not at all neglected taking heavy
and frequent meals, until now his sys-
tenn was out of balance and something
had to be done to restore balance.
Query, should he fast himself back to
health, or should he emulate the old

GERMAN AIR RAID
 ON BRITISH VILLAGES
TWO PERSONS KILLED AND TWENTY.NINE INJURED IN
 THE sOMsARDMENT.

London Jnne 5.-Sixteen Grman alfplanes came over the North sea this evening and dropped many bombs on the small towns and villages in Essex and Kent Only fourteen of them returned to their home base for two were brought down by the British guns
 So far as late reports show only two persons We're killed and twenty.nine injured in the bombardment. The raiders met with a lively reception extra precautions having been taken by the British authorities after the re- cent raid on the southeast coast Of England in which 250 persons were killed or wounded The Germans were attacked by British agiators be fore they had an opportunity to carry out their raiding intentions to any great extent and the British anti-air craft guns were every effective.
 According a local report the pilot and observer of the air raiders brought down were rescued at sea and made prisoners.
 Warning sirens were sounded some place prior to the raid and most Of the peope took 10 shelter The small number of casualties is attributed to this precauton
 Persons arriving in London from inc raided area state that ample warn ing of the approach oi he raiders was given and thar their airmen were Datrolling before the enemy reached fhe coast. The weather favored the invaders, who flying at great height. ried to peneta inland under cover of the small cloudy banks They were quickly located and engaged by air ships and land batteries.
 An eye witness says that at one of the raided places the people were eu- ertaining wounded soldiers. The hore was crowded with women and chil- dren. Suddenly enemy planes came into full view within mnge of the shore batteries. A few minutes later 5ne of them was seen somersaulting rom the couds and amid storm of
 heerng 1t dropped mo the sea A number of motor boats and other cratt manned by sailors immediately began racing toward the plane The pilot who was n his seat unhurt was seen struggling 10 free himself from ,ha dereurt tWhen the first boat reached thc scene, however, the pilot had disappeared and he k supposed 10 have been drowned
