SLOT MACHINE CHARITY

Faith, Hope, and Charity are
the only permanent virtues. All
the other virtues and all the
other graces are temporary.
Charity dominated and con-
trolled by love is personal.
The greatest dynamic that has
ever moved any one is the dy-
manic of love.
Whenever you reduce love to
a mechanical basis or you reduce
charity to a slot machine method
of administering, you have blown
out the light of love and you
have chilled the personal touch,
and have robbed virtue Of its
heart.
Whenever you administer
charity by proxy or by an or
ganization, which is more inter-
ested in Investigation, registro-
tion, tabulation, and confscation
OF tne domestic skeleton then It
is of administering charity, you
have turned the sweetest senti-
ment on earth into mockery, a
curse, and an object of contempt.
Let each family in each church
be responsible : personally re-
sponsible-for some unfortunate
family. Let them administer to
that family personally, visit it,
clean its house, clothe its chill
dren, feed its hungry, nurse its
sick, educate its ignorant. and
sing the songs of cheer and hap
piness and thus dispel its dull
ness and gloom.
Then, and only then will you
eradicate suffering and put real
charity back on its throne.
CursedLthrice cursed be the
slot machine charity.

Play Whiskey Faro With Uncle Sam

Seemingly love does not laugh more heartily at locksmiths
than bootleggers laugh at Uncle Sam. The sweethearts steal a
kiss or two through latticed windows risklng discovery at any
moment, while the b~ootleggers race illicit fast motor boats inside
the three mile limit on the same principle-an accepted under
standing that they are working on a percentage that cannot fail.
The game has come to be known as Whiskey Faro. tits played
consistently and persistently. The ships gather one by one out
side the three mile limit each loaded to the Plmsol line and
weighted below the line with the stuff that cheers. When the big
vessels are all at anchor, the auxiliary rum runners are gathered
in sufficient number to create a favorable impression and then
the word is given, and a dash is made for the shore line.
As a rule Uncle Sam has two or three revenue cutters always
on the alert for the bootlegging racers. But forty boats make the
dash, and according to all experience 1t is quite impossible for
the government to catch more than three IN any one raid. Con
sequently, the boats take their chances, and II three be seized
the percentage of loss runs to approximately seven per cent
which is a very profitable margin.
Evidently sectional prohibition does not work much better
than did state enactments. If the drys are to succeed then they
must blot up the whole world, or arrange fences and gateways
on the ocean.

Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism

Mr.. James H. Allen, of Rochester. N.
Y, suffered for years with rheumatism.
Many times this terrible disease left him
helpless and unable to work.
He finally decided, after years of cease
less study. that 10 one can be free from
rheumatism until the accumulated impur-
tiles, commonly called uric acid deposits,
were dissolved in the joints and muscles
and expelled from the body.
With this idea in mind he consulted
physicians, made experiments and finally
compounded a prescription that quickly
and completely banished every sign and
symptom of rheumatism from his system.
He freely gave his discovery, which he
called Anenrhu, to others who took it,
with what might be called marvellous
success. After years of urging he decided
to let sufferers everywhere know about
his discovery through the newspapers. He
has therefore instructed druggists every
where to dispense Allenrhu with the IN
derstanding that if the first pint bottle
does not show the way to complete recoy-
cry he will gladly return your money
without Orange Drug Co. car
supply YOU.
