PROTECTION TO LIVE STOCK
SHIPPERS
Brokers Required To Deposit Net
Sales Receipts In Trust
Funds.

Live stock commission mer-
chants operating in Minnesota
are required by an order Of the
Minnesota Railroad and Ware
house Commission. issued April
q, to make a separate bank de-
posit of all net receipts from
sales of stock consigned to them,
such deposits or trust funds to
be distinct from the regular
business accounts. Commissioners
Ivan Bowen. who drafted the
new rule, explains that its pur.
pose is to protect live stock ship
pers from losses through the fail.
ure or financial embarrassment
of their brokers. Such trust
funds will be safe from any nc
ton by creditors of the brokers
and Will constitute q guaranty
that the shippers will obtain all
that should be coming to them.
No money may be withdrawn
from such funds other than to
pay the claims Of the consignors
for whom stock has been sold.
The order should prove distinct
ly beneficial to the live stock in
dustry in view Of the fact that
serious losses have been sustain
ed in the past through the fail
ure Of commission houses. but
will be prevented in the future,
if the brokers comply with the
rule Of the commission.

DRUNKARDS

Mrs. Margot Asquith says her visit in our
country has turned her against prohibition.
she came dry, departs wet
Mrs, Asquith is especially shocked by the
drinking among our young people-the mag
netic power of flash of whiskey or synthetic
gin at a dance.
She wouldn't be as emphatic now if she had
visited us before prohibition and watched the
drinking among young folks in grill rooms or
even at high school dances where the boys
with the largest peg-top trousers spiked the
punch.
Very few rum hounds will admit it, But
there is far less drinking now than before pro-
hibition. Turn your memory back to saloon
days, when midnight owl cars were riotous, road
houses bacchanalian, and drunken men stag
gering in streets were common.
A souse attracts ten times as much attention
now because the stuff is hard to get.
Every conversation these days, if it lasts
long enough, drifts around to BOOZE A favorite
topic is the great number of people who never
drank before prohibition but now take intense
pride in being able to serve something with q
kick.
"All this" say the rum hounds, "is due 10
Americans resentment against having their
personal liberty restrained by law"
III this reasoning is logical most of us are
philosophical anarchists. Which we're not.
Personal liberty is restrained daily by hun
dreds Of ether laws--as traffic regulations, dis
ease quarantine and prohibition of keeping pigs
in city limits These laws are accepted calmly,
as matter of course
This is the truth: The people who are drink
ing now would be drinking twice as much if
the saloons were back The war left lis with
highly strung nerves and terrific economic
problems. This heritage is the cause of the
widespread craving for liquor-to soothe the
nerves and make us forget economic problems
We haven't the courage to face with clear brains.
Rum hounds seem unable to get it through
their heads that the prohibition law is here to
stay. In the back Of their brains fingers de-
fusion that dryness is only temporary-that,
somehow or other, liquor will come back

The FINAL MYSTERY

What does it feel like to die? This question
aroused intense curiosity in Thure B. Wagelius,
brilliant young chemist and psychic investiga-
tor of Brooklyn, N. Y.
A daring scheme to peek behind the myster-
ious curtain of death occurred to him.
, Locked in his laboratory, young Wagelius
Wagelius rugged up an apparatus that dripped
an anaesthetic drug into an inhaler attached
to his nostrils.
This had an automatic regulator Each sue
cessive experiment, Wagelius went one drop
Of drug nearer to DEATH
Them coming out of his stuper, he wrote down
his experiences.
Il am on the verge of discovering the great
secret of the hereafter" he told friends.
Finally the drug carried him beyond the cur
tain, showed him what lies after death. But
death is a one-way door. No one will ever
know what Wagelius discovered. He has been
buried.
The mystery of death has been matter of
deep thought by every person that ever lived.
Haler, great philosopher and physician,
watched his pulse on his death-bed, hoping to
be able to speak message an instant after
death claimed him. His last words were, my
friend, the artery ceases to beat" His voice
was stilled before he could impart the secret
of the beyond.
Harvey, discoverer of the circulation of
blood, also kept close watch on his pulse when
he was dying in 1867, He knew the exact in
slant he died. but was unable to get a message
back to the doctors grouped about him.
Why do men fear death, yet yield without
dread to it's twin-brother, sleep?
Probably because they go to sleep with a
conviction that they are certain to waken in
the morning, while death closes the door on
mortal consciousness and opens the way into
the unknown.
People have an instructive fear of what they
do not understand. The savage is terrified at
the explorer who can remove his glass eye.
But explain the glass eye to the savage and he
loses his fear.
Our ancestors of 500 years ago would die of
fright If they could come to life and see our
movies, electric lights and flying machines,
We, too, would be terrified if we could look
into the future 500 years. or beyond the grave.
Progress is slow because the human brain can
not stand too rapid change. Curtains of mys-
terry shield sanity
