PHILADELPHIA IS BIG
 NATIONAL RESERVOIR''

Philadelphia Oct. 22.-This city is known in wet circles as one of the national reservoirs of the bootleg ging industry. Price lists of booze are freely circulated, and delivery can be obtained within three or four days for case goods, and even less for small quantities. Drinks can be purchased in almost any saloon, and the res- taurants do fair business. Motor truck fleets of the liquor syndicates arrive and depart with great regular ity. The seizures made by the en- forceInent officials are regarded as trivial by those acquainted with the situation. A shake-up of the local pro- hibition bureau has been ordered from Washington.

TEACHING FASHIONABLE FLAPPERS HOW TO SHOOT IS TAME COMPARED
 TO SNIPlNG GOPHERS, SHE AYERS
Many Former Teachers Office Women Are Living on Homesteads, and Many of Them Will Remain,
 Says One Who Is Trying It Out.

St. Louis Mo-, Oct 22-Teaching the young idea how to shoot in a fashionable girls boarding school in St. Louis is not half so exciting as learning how to shoot up" gophers, snakes, and other rodents and rep tiles that infest the average home sosad. So says one who has tried both Mrs. Elma H. Benton, for nine months each year principal of fash ionable Hosmer Hall at St. Louis, the other three months being spent in i'm Montana.
 Left widow several years ago with two sons to support, Mrs. Ben ton began to look around for some place where she could make an in vestment that should benefit her boys during Summer months, and provide a living for her when she quit the teaching profession. At that time she in one of Wisconsin's leading coun- ties. She had heard of various busi- ness and professional women who had
 gone West" to try homesteading, but given up later on account of not be- Ing able to carry it through.
 With her two boys and some cash she went West one Summer and 'staked' off some land and began at once to have a shack" erected to comply with her contract The i'm until at present she has a good house, outbuildingS and 320 acres of land in her name Part of the land is sown to alfalfa and some to trye. There she journeys every summer with a party of friends and her faithful dog Bob" During the last Summer she procured her final deed and no prouder home- steader exists. She has been head of Hosmer Hall several years, and much as she loves her work is> not averse to saying that she intends to return to the West some day for good. Teach ing seems quite tame by comparison in her opinion.

 Miss Thompson, principal Of the schools, says the children. prefer the1T new fiat world to the old fashioned round one in which Columbus be- Heved.
 .~The students in Zion scools," she says "grasp the theory Of the nat earth readily because their minds are not full of globular earth teaching such as older folks have had drilled into them, Therefore, they accept the flat earth teaching without ques- tioning, not because they have to, put because it appeals to them as ration al. I don't believe there is one stu dent in the grades who has questioned it. The fiat earth seems more req sonable to them. The globular, un- real.'
 Wilbur Gleen voliva, who succeed ed John Alexander Dowie as over seer of Zion on the latter's death in March, 1907, was born near Newton Ind, March 1, 1870. In 1887 ne re- ceived his B. A. from Hiram College, Ohio. and in the same year a aegree & om, Ind. In 1889 he has been or dained a minister in the Christian church at the age of 1s. and he1d 0a a to 1892; Uurbana, III. 18e2-s3; stud- led theology at stanfordville, N.

H., Ohto,s in 1S97- 99.
 In 1899, vo1iva joined Dowie's church and was ordained an elder and placed in charge of the Zion tab ernacle in Chicago, In 1900 ana 1901 he represented DoW1e at C1nc1n- nati. and then was sent to Australia as overseer of the Dowie settlement of Zion there. He returned to Z1on' I'll in 1906 as assistant to Dow1e.

girls can give me the thrill I receive daily in my Western life" she said re- gently: T find I receive much in mers to bring back to the girls. It gives me a wder outlook, which I try to bring to them.
 'I should advise every business or professional woman to procure a piece of land somewhere and spend her spare time there. Later it proves to be a veritab1e haven when business irl1s and even the best of friends pail on one.
 'It is surprising to see how many former teachers and office women are now living on homesteads. Some will remain. Others will return to their work after necessary time on ranch, better off in health and pocketbook.
 'In contrast to city folk we find our Western neighbors very friendly and coverng a wide range of people, Pro- fessors. foreigners and all are there together and all have a neighborly spirit. When l go there each Spring I am always presented with fresh gar den truck, fruit and other things.
 ''It was hard for Bob at first to be- come accustomed to country life but he now thrives on gophers and similar dainties.'' Bob" wagged his tail in confirmation of such fact to the visitor. Snakes, gophers and coyotes are daily visitors around our place and one of my earliest tasks was to learn to shoot them, or they would overrun the place.
 ''Speaking of dogs, it was amusing to be put to the trouble we were get ting Bob into Montana Owing to he number of sheep raised there dogs are not allowed to come into the State. It took a lot of red tape from 'proper officials to get Bob through, put after the first time he was allowed in without any trouble. In fact he much prefers to stay there, although the nice warm room here at the school and the betting he gets from the girls does much to recompense him for the Western life''

 It is not always in business that a woman is forced to give up her work on account of i'll health. It is quite as often the woman who does her own work at home. When backaches and headaches drive out all ambition, when that bear ing-down sensation attacks you, when you are nervous and blue, the one great help for such ailments is Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound.
