DIGS NOT
NAMED IN
LEAK
New Blanks Deemed by James
E. Jones Proof Against
Rum Withdrawals

"A leak-proof VI seal has been
placed upon aged and properly
made whiskey in the United States,
Assistant Prohibition Commissioners
james e. Jones declared today.
Through the adoption of an en-
graved prescription blank for use
by physicians in ordering drug
stores to sell whiskey to patients,
Mr.. Jones believes that an effective
paddock has been placed upon illicit
Withdrawals of liquor, wholesale and
retail.
A recently perfected plan in re-
gard to Withdrawals of whiskey
from warehouses, so far has ef-
fected a great Improvement in the
situation, Is the other important
plug in the liquor supply, said Mr..
Jones
The prohibition chief. in explain
ing the details OF these new rules,
paid high compliment to the
physicians and druggists of Wash
ington.
I'VE have had very. very little
trouble with counterfeit prescrip-
ton blanks or abuse Of the legal
privileges OF physicians and drug
gists, in connection with the
handling of liquor, in this city,
said Mr.. Jones. 1.-THE doctors and
of Washington, / have
found, are, as a class, high-minded
and honest professional men,"
Mr.. Jones himself, alarmed at the
flood of counterfeit liquor prescrip<
lions in New York, Chicago. and
other cities, pushed through the
plan for a new kind of prescription
blank. The officials who hold the
money bags were inclined to caVil
at the expense this would entail,
but a report on current conditions
in the large cities OF the country
convinced them Of the need for a
drastic reform in the matter of pre-
scriptions.
The old prescription books,
which were printed at the Govern
ment Printing Office and, in the
words of Mr.. Jones, could be
duplicated in any print shop" have
been recalled, and specimens OF the
new blanks are being sent out.
The new form is water-marked
prohibition" and is engraved both
in black and white and in two
tones Of brown. The use of this
color and the intricate and minute
design, superimposed upon still an
other design on the face of the
blank, is regarded by Mr.. Jones
as insurance against counterfeitfng.
Prohibition authorities have been
advised by experts that the new
blank could not possibly be dupli-
Gated at a cost which would per-

NJ CARL DENIES
REQUEST FOR
BOOTS

The request of the Secretary of
the Treasury that employees Of the
customs house at Galena, I'LL,
which is flooded about once a
year, be supplied with rubber hats,
coats and boots for use during
floods was turned down today by
Comptroller General McCarl.
THE postoffice and customs house
at GaIena is flooded every year and
at such times boats are necessary
to carry the mail, the custodian
and. office personnel to and from
the building" Mr. Mellon wrote to
the Comptroller. He also said that
as a result of the flood conditions
it was necessary for the custodian
force to undertake the cleaning of
the cellar and building upon recess
sion of the floods.
"The hats, coats and boots are
required not only for the custodian
force, but for the entire personnel
Of the building, who are required
to wade to and from the building
Mr.. Mellon stated. The Secretary
of the Treasury said that the
articles desired do not constitute
wearing apparel for particular en1-
ployes, but was necessary equip
ment to enable the employees TO
discharge their duties.
I'm view of the meager salaries
allowed the employees, the depart
ment feels that they should not he
put to the expense of buying the
needed equipment" Mr.. Mellon said.

NoDs!fies in Easter
Eggs Found in Paris

The Paris Easter egg Is a thing Of
Joy forever. It seems to grow bigger
every year, and Its contents more va
ried and less like anything that ever
occurred inside IN egg. There are
children's eggs and eggs for grown
ups. The former are usually large;
the latter very small. The children's
Easter eggs of the nonedible kind are
filed with sets of furniture, wireless
telegraphy outfits, with whole farms
of animals, with toilette sets in minia-
ture, and they are OF course attrac-
lively laid out In cottonwood and
ribbons.
Grown-up Easter eggs contain
manicure sets Of every variety, beau
tiful little sewing outfits, and some of
the tiny eggs contain a miniature
watch made in enamel and bejeweled,
and just large enough to wear In a
buttonhole. Sometimes jewelry to
match a dress may be found inside an
Easter egg. While ivory and jade
slave bangles have taken their place,
and sometimes two or three of these
are worn at a time and tinkle as the

umbrella handles or bag tops, and a

ing In the Easter service, led by their
patriarch and a dozen long-haired
priests, CARRIED in yestments Of red
and gold. There are no pews in Rus
sian churches and the great throng
was PACKED In so tightly that women
were carried out, fainting. All night
long they surged through the great
bronze doors, swaying like a field Of
grain in the wind or a slow swell on
the ocean. Gradually they pushed
closer to the altar, to come within
range of the blessing of the patriarch
and the priests. And always they were
bent In devotion, making the sign Of
the cross three times, and as many
as possible Of them working ethelr
way &c the sacred paintings and
pressing their lips against the glass.
Throughout the watch service Of this
Easter night the majority of worship
ers In the cathedral carried lighted
tapers in their fingers-thousands Of
tiny flames,
City Settling With Joy.
We were told to be at the cathedral
before midnight, where we would be
met and escorted to a place inside.
AS we clattered in d%roshkies down
the paving of Tverskoi boulevard,
Nikitski and Prechistenski, we passed
a steady stream Of people, all bound
for church. The streets were lighted
better than I had ever seen them in
Moscow Nand the big apartment
houses lining the boulevard showed
light in every window. Life and cheer
all about. Laughter, merry voices,
and the ringing Of beHs-it was like
the ushering In of the New Year on
Broadway.
At the cathedral there was a crowd
standing IN the great steps which
looked like the overflow from a pre-
election meeting I'm Madison Square
garden. But here laughter ceased and
the spirit of worship prevailed. It
was no longer New Years. It was
Easter. AS we walked through shad-
ed paths leading to the cathedral and
listened to the steady tramp Of feet I
was reminded of the night before
Armistice day in washington, when
thousands Of American pilgrims
marched, silently, four abreast, under
the trees of the capitol grounds and
then filed into the rotunda to pay
their hushed, fearful homage to the
Unknown Soldier. There was the same
spirit of a nation al participating
in the years work to take part In a
sacred rite.

ADVERSELY A STlMULANT
TO GOOD FARMING

An interesting experience is told by
Dean Dodson of a Louisiana farmer
who was just about breaking even in
growing cotton. AOne day his wife fell
seriously i'll and was obliged to go to
the hospital. A little later his daugh-
ter was also taken to the hospital.
Before he was through with this ex-
p~erience he was confronted with a
bill for $4,000. What was he to do?
Like a good business man he be-
gan to figure how he might increase
his income and cut down his ex-
penses. He had a few COWS that he
kept for raising calves. He started
to milk these and sell the product.
He had some Gull potatoes that were
unsuitable. He fed these to his cows
and some pigs which he was able to
buy right. Other waste products wefe
utilized in the same manner In the
garden he had more turnips than he
needed for his own use. These he
sorted, selling the best and feeding
the pool ones. He consulted with his
merchants as to what garden crops
he might proitably grow for the local
market.
He figured that he had some idle
land that he might use in growing
grain and hay. He enlarged his flock
of poultry and took better care of it.
He was more careful in the use OF
his auto and sayed a considerable
sum that ordinarily went for gasoline.
BY taking advantage Of the increased
sources Of income and by cutting out
unnecessary expenses he was able by
the end Of the year to pay off his hos
pital bin. and in the meantime had
discovered the secret Of sound and
successful farming.-BGnker-FGrmem
