 < Eggs. Prices And .Qualisies.--When we have to pay fifty cents q dozen for eggs we think the price is just: little too high and ] we curb 6',f appetite for the fruit of thesheflsa Some of ats can remember when eggs were ten cents dozen. Then we didn't care very much about them. In fact, some of as wouldn'tN use them unless we had ham to go with them, or they were fixed up in liquid form and bore the name of egg flip or egg.. nog.

 Prohibit ion More POpulaF.-As prohibition is given. a real opportunity to prohibit. 1t be- comes more and more popular. If the quee- tion could be divorced entirely from poiltIcs and enforced on the same plane with any other law, the time would not be far distant when distilling and bootlegging would be just as disgraceful and just as shameful as bur- giary, robbery, arson and other crime. The report of the grand jury indicates that Bto- wah citizens are coming to look upon liquor law violation with more and more disfavor. -Gadsden Journal. >'T-e'+'
