 NEWT By Charles Taber Stout. Mitchell
 Kennerley. Publishers, New York
 City.
 After a period of uncertainty and unrest, public opinion gradually comes to a focus with regard to any issue of national importance. It is gradually coming to a focus now with regard to prohibition, one of the gravest issues that could be pre- sented to 8 great nation living under modern conditions and one on which it's welfare, economic as well as physical and moral, intimately de- bends
 It is the mere duty of every citizen whatever his personal inclinations or prejudices, to make himself acquaint- ed with the simple scientific prin- ciples, social and physiological. un- deriving the whole question: in other words, to learn the facts, and ignore the fallacies. He will find in this book the results, quietly and clearly expressed, of a careful examination of the relations of alcohol to the human system. and of prohibition to the social structure.

TEMPLE TORCHES,

 In order to give some hint of the height of spirituality on which Judith l.. c. Garnett stands as she sings, let us quote this poem, Midnight" which rears it's shining head above the others
 I look. and see the dance is past The gleam gone, hushed the band . And now around the shattered feast The ghouls. all smirking, stand. l look. and see the harvest ripe.
 o heart night still with guilt, The night stays now,--the door is The clowns crown duned. a-tilt. I look. and see. the broad highway Ina. leads from Gods domain: The Cain marked clown has trod its
 length,-
 He cries to Heaven in vain.

 Washington, March 4.-American industry is astir today as it has not been for months. At least 250,O00 more men are working in the mines and on the railroads than were at work January 1.

Boston A. A.; Mike Dcvaney. Millrosc
