DECREASE IN CONSUMPTION.

Inc per capita consumption of spir-
ituous, vinous and malt liquors during
the fiscal year ending June 80, 1915,
was, according to the final government
report, 1910 gallons. This Is the small
est figure since 1902.
While the withdrawal for consump-
ton of distilled liquors was greater in
1916 than In 1915, it was less than in
any year between 1902 and 1915. The
slight Increase was chiefly due, SAYS
the commissioner of internal revenue
to "the effective enforcement of the in
tcrnal revenue tax on distilled spirits"
Ii should be remembered that the
withdrawal for consumption" does not
mean that the liquor all went down
the throats of American citizens.
Much Of IL Is forced out of the gov
rrnmcnt warehouses by the expiration
OF the bonded period. When liquor Is
taken out of bond the tax is paid and
1t Is officially recorded ms consumed"
AS matter Of fact n large part Of It
is merely transferred TO private ware
houses TO await market demands. The
TACT that large quantities remain in
bond until forced out by the time limit
is sufficient proof that actual consump-
ton of splrituous liquors is decreas-
ing.

IN WINE-DRINKINe ITALY.

Prof. Leonardo Blanchi, an author
ity on alcoholism in Italy, agrees with
Lambroso and Fcrri concerning the
degeneration caused by the wine
drinking customs of his country. He
says:
II know from my experience that
deep melancholy, persccutlonal mania,
Jealousy leading to the assassination
of the suspected individual can, in
many cases, be directly traced to over
Indulgence in the gift of Bacchus.
Most of our great criminals were hard
drinkers before starting on their ca
rcer of crime, or are sons of hard
drinkers. The headquarters of the
Mano Nera and other associations of
malefactors is the wineshop. We can
easily become master of cholera and
diphtheria, of typhoid fever and ma
laria. The grave problem before us is
the prevention of the inSidious alcohol
lzation of the nation. The degrading
poverty of the lower classes in certain
sections of the country, our laz2aroni,
the passion for gambling, the terrible
infant mortality-for all this, and
more yet, the special form of our al
coholism is mainly responsible"

WOMEN SUFFERERS
NEED SWAMP-ROOT

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney and bladder trouble and
never suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
II the kidneys are not in healthy con.
dition, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer a great deal with pain
in the back, headache, loss Of ambition,
nervousness and may be despondent and
irritable.
Don't delay starting treatment. DR..
kilmer's Swamp-Root, a physicians pre-.
scription, obtained at any drug store, re.
stores health to the kidneys and is Just
the remedy needed to overcome such con.
ditions.

AMERICA HAS TRIED THEM ALL

We in America know more about
legislative methods of dealing with
the liquor traffic than all the world
besides. We know everything that Eu-
rope knows, and some things of which
Europe has not legiSIatively dreamed.
1t is diverting to those who know the
facts, when some dillettante bewails
the extent TO which unsophisticated
America is hurtling bllndly along the
prohibition trail, following dogmas
preached by professional agitators,
without stopping TO take stock Of
what older and more prncticed nations
have learned. These writer's are en-
gagingly naive. Everything that Eu-
rope has ever tried on this question
we have tried, and mOrc.-From Arti-

Kidney & Co.
(BY DR.. ]. II. WATSoN)

The kidneys and the skin work in
harmony. They're companions, the
skin being tho second partner. II we
are anxious to keep well and preserve
the vitality Of the kidneys and, also
free the blood from noxlous elements,
we must pay special attention to n
good action Of the skin and to see that
the kidneys are flushed so as to ellml-
nate the polsons from the blood.
Sweating by hard work or In bath,
at least once week, helps to keep the
skin and kidneys in good condition.
Flush the kidneys by drinking plenty
Of pure water with meals and between
meals. Occasionally obtain at the drug
store Anuric, double strength, which
will help flush the kidneys and the In.
testines. You will find that Anuric is
mahy times more active than llthia
ana that II dlssolves uric acid as hot
Tor does sugar.

A REASON FOR THE SALOON.

A saloon keeper, testlfying before
the Chicago council commission as to
the difficulties in running a ''respecta-
BILE" saloon, told Of a talk with an ex-
mayor Of the city. The ex-mayor, he
said, excused the existence Of low
class saloons in these words; "a cer-
tain number Of saloons of that kind
should be permitted so that when the
police want to find man they can find
him right away"
This" remarks a prohibition Jour
nal, "is just about the most valid rea-
son for licensing saloons"

Germany's Way.

Admiral Davey, who was answering
a paclfist argument In n debate In Sac
ramento, shook his head and went on !:
Germany is quite willing to behave
herself, provided she can run the whole
world-have II all her own way.
Germany is like the lady whose
husband came home with a new safety
razor and said, anxlously:

my dear, l am going to shave myself
hereafter. Won't you, too, do some
thing to economizeT

MAKING CHURCH FURNITURE.

Seven thousand five hundred and
ninety liquor establishments closed
their doors within the last year. Dur
ing the year preceding June 80, 1916,
a liquor shop closed every hour, and a
church was established every three
hours, This explains why one of the
big bar fixture companies in this coun-
try has quit making bar fixtures, and
is now manufacturing church furnl-
ture.
