Flags at Capitol Fly
in Honor of Return on
Furlough of Maj. ZeigIer

Flags are flying in State street this
morning, heralding the return of Major
Frank Il. Zeigler, of the Sth Pennsyl-
Nania Infantry. The major arrived at
his home, LOG State street, this morn
ing on a thirty day furlough.
\ trife tired from the long journey
home, but looking fine and fit, Major
Zeigler Immediately frightened when
asked about the life at the border.
Fine" he emphatically declared
Everything is fine. The boys of Camp
stuart are in the best of condition
Why the health has been better and the
death rate lower than If the boys had
been at home" he continued 1--WE
have had only two deaths, and only
one of them came from disease con-
tracted at the border, and you must
admit that's a good record"
Asked as to reported trouble in the
regiment, Major Zeigler said: Those
rumors are absolutely untrue. Col.
Finney covered the whole situation In
his statement 10 the newspapers.

lips. He imagined he had to have it.
lie permitted his relatives to send him
TO Nebraska ranch TO get away
from booze. There was a saloon
three miles from the ranch. Did this
fellow persist in refraining from booze
until one day it became an absolute
impossibility further to resist and
then dash madly to the saloon? He
did not. The booze never bothered
him. And it hasn't bothered him
since.
1t takes lots more stuff" to quit
smoking than it does to quit liquoring
L know still smoke.
When you hear some drinker ques-
ton the statement that it requires nc
will power to quit drinking you can
put it down that the particular drinker
who Is doing the questioning doesn't
have quits" enough to quit; he's
merely trying to complete an alibi
for himself.

feeling-to wander home at a. m.

My Lady Sleeps?" That's harmony,
isn't it-with the whisky -tenors work
ing overtime? And the next morning
say! Isn't that the gr-r-rrand and
GLORIOUS feeling? That furred tongue
that steam heated stomach, that
head-the head that pounds and
jumps every time your heel touches
tie floor? No wonder they quit drink

there's nothing else to do.

what about the other five"
Find three or four more nice, quiet
girls" suggested the cartooner.
1T can't be DONE" said the S. D.
Not one of them would stand for the
other three"
Nothing Else to Do
1t seemed from what this lad told
us that there are those who drink
because there's nothing else to do.
Say" said Sullivan to the S. D.,
why don't you go to the theater or
the movies every evening?"
For the same reason that I don't
take walk to Dauphin every night
after dinner: l don't want to. want
TO do something that will interest me
something that | want to do | don't
particularly want to booze, but that's
all there is to do
That case was hopeless We moved
on to the next.
''Why don't you stay on the wagon
when you climb it," we asked a lad
gazing pop-eyed at us over a bottle
of imported (from Hoboken) beer.
Don't you call me that" he growl-
ed menacingly. Il don't know you"
No use!
And why do YOU drink ?" we asked
n thlrd young man, with a bottle of
NO. "a in front of him.
Why He Drinks
We'll" said he, "you see. before I
got married | quit drinking for year.
Then | got married. I'm married five
years. That's why 1 drink"
IT seemed like Sullivan and 7 were
doomed to meet nothing but helpless
cripples Outside. though, his lead
looked normal.
You say" we put at him, that
you once quit drinking for a year"
No" came the reply 81 quit drink
ing for a year before / got married !:
and stayed on the wagon four years
after L was married. Then [ came
down off the wagon"
Why"
Say" blurted the drinlter. don't
you understand plain English. / was

Again no use.
All of these men were men who
didn't want to stay on the wagon.
