Race With Stork for 100000 Pearls

Meanwhile the necklace reposes IL

Blum, inspecting the necklace, noted
the gems had lost much Of their lus-
ter. He called in lapidarists, who told
him the gems were sick. They needed
light and air and, more than anything
else, contact with the soft, warm
breast and neck of healthy woman
hood. Unless they had this, the ex-
perts said, the pearls would continue
to "starve" and steadily and swiftly
decrease In value and beauty.

DOCTORS AS BARKEEPS
Wisconsin Medical Society Says
Nothing Doing

The medical profession generally
is opposed to being made the bar
keeps OF America" said DR.. c. r
Bardeen, of the College of Medicine
and Anatomy of the University oil
Wisconsin, speaking before the annual
of the State Medical So
ciety of that state, of which organiza-
ton Dr.. Rardeen formerly was presi-
dent. In the course of his address,
DIR. Bardeen said
Relatively few of the physi-
clans will prostitute themselves
for financial gain. The doctors
who are found to be commercial
izing liquor prescriptions are
coming into i'll repute with their
fellows. The good near beer for
medicina purposes is Just as much
of a tonic as beer with an alco-
holic content. AS state medical
society, we have gone on record
as opposed to physicians handling

THE LAZY VOTER

A democratic government is
presumably composed of voters
who vote. When the govern
ment is elected, not by voters
who vote but by the default of
! qualified citizens who stay
at home, it is strictly legal,
but it ceases to be democratic.
What is the good of being a
part of representative govern
ment to a man who declines his
share of representation? The
savage has his tom-tom. Civil
ization has developed the grand
piano. 1t is a better instru-
ment, but what use is it to any
body who refuses to play on it?
The man who complains
about a government and does
not take the trouble to go to
the polls and vote is in much
the situation of the man who
complains it is too dark to see
and is too lazy to light a lamp.

VETS Still BLOCK
ANTI-BEER BILL
Determined to Prevent Vote During
This Session

Wet leaders in the United States
Senate, with the resumption of ses-
sions by the Senate continue their fill
buster against the anti-beer bill.
On September % Senator Stanley
of Kentucky spoke six hours against
the bill. After several days of en-
deavoring to bring the anti-beer bill
to final vote in the Senate, dry lead
ers on September 80 withdrew oppo-
sition to voting on peace treaties and
tax measures before the anti-beer bill
was disposed of. The following state
ment by Senator Sterling, dry leader,
explains the situation:
Those interested i'll the adoption
of the conference report on the anti
beer bill may be assured of final ia
vorab1e action of the Senate thereon.
The sentiment of the Senate is over
whelmingly in favor of the adoption
of the report, but as everybody knows
final vote has been prevented by
the tactics of not exceeding a half
dozen Senators who are opposed to
the report and claim that the so-called
Stanley amendment should have been
agreed to by the conferees. There
will be some further delay in the con-
sderation of the report on account of
the peace treaties laid before the SEN
ate this morning and perhaps also on
account of the tax bill, notice of the
taking up of which next Monday was
given last Thursday by the chairman
of the Finance Committee. These
latter are most important measures;
the country is vitality interested in
them and the welfare of the country
depends to some extent at least on
the very early ratification of these
treaties and the enactment of rev.
cnue law With the treaties and the
tax bill out of the way the confer
ence report on the anti-beer bill will
be taken up and pushed to an early
vote. The leaders on the majority
side have agreed that nothing else
shall intervene to prevent or delay
the consideration of the conference
report after the treaties and tax bill
are disposed Of"

VETS ARE DESERTED
BY N. Y. DEMOCRATS
(Aurora Beacon News)

New York, Sept. %. - Those in
separable chums, beer and light
wines, are in solitude today. They
have been deserted by their hitherto
ardent supporter, the New York
Democratic party. Prohibition has
received a great boost.
Such was the summary today of the
situation resulting from the fact that
drys at the Democratic state conven-
ton in session at the Commodore
yesterday exhibited such strength
that the wet element did not dare to
face a test vote on the proposal to
include a plank in the platform de-
handing a modification of the Vol
stead act.
Some Democrats argue that the
leaders did not consider it fit to men,
ton beer and light wines in a plat
form on which former Justice Town
send Scudder of Nassau, is to run for
the court of appeals others say that
the damp plank was dropped off in
view of what happened to the candi-
dacy of Judge Reuben L. Haskell, of
Brooklyn, for the Republican nomi-
nation for mayor.
The fact remains, however, that
dry sentiment was in the ascendency
in the Democratic convention.
