MANY LONDON MANSIONS DARK AND SILENT

Through the small, genteel streets of Mayfair, domain of London's aristocrats. poverty is stalking to- day.

Few. if any, of Britain's great families have escaped financially unscathed from the economic storm. Many have seen their for. tunes dwindie to nothing. Many, lost without the social contacts they can no longer afford, have locked their old houses and gone away. More than one peer, if the public but knew it, lives in an attic. More than one famous drawing-room, only recently alive with brilliant men and women, L1 dark and silent now. They are available at a good price to rich American visitors -. hut there are not as many rich American visitors now. The occasional sale of some great house, or country estate is all that one hears of their troubles. Some- times thcy may admit that the bur- den of taxation has been too great to keep it up. Oftener they slip 8W5? to a cheaper place in another part of the country, or go abroad to live for awhile on a little pension. Although their fortunes are gone, some of those who have lived moat of their lives in Mayfair cannot tear themselves away. They stay

In 1919 she startled Calgarlans by entering the contests at the annual Stam- pede, carrying _off the Dominion broncho riding title. A few months later in Saskatoon she won the praise of the Prince of Wales by calmly conquering a rearing. Pitch- ing cayuse.

WE'LL KNOWN NOVELIST 0N ALCOHOL

Alcohol is poison, and it has not -and1 never had-An any guise whatever, the slightest compensat- ing value for internal use. It is not a food; it is poison. It isn't a beneficial stimulant: it's a poison. , It isn't an aid to digestion; it's a poison. It isn't a life saver; it's a life taker. _ It's a parasite, forger, thief, pan- derer, liar, brutallzer and murder- en-Robert W. Chambers, in his fine story, "The Danger Mark."

Alcohol is the most dangerous

and deadly enemy the human race has to contend with. It degeneratea man before he is born. It converts a brilliant man into an imbecile. It ruins a young man's prospects. It will cause men to murder, steal, defraud and. lie to obtain it. ' Conductors, engineers, brakemen, firemen, switchmen, operators and dispatchers, towermen, are as dan- gerous to the human race rs Black Death if they take a small drink of liquor. Automobile drivers and all kinds of occupations needing head work are ruined by this vicious liquid. I am for prohibition one thousand times-Dr. C. D. Otto- sen, New Mexico.

THE AMERICAN PROIIIBITION LAW MAKING ITSELF FELT

The liquor traffic is stark, rav- ing mad to rid itself of prohibition in the American Republic, but its most outstanding efforts to accom- plish this but reveal how it is being made to feel law backed by public sentiment.

An article in the April Cosmopo- litan, "Speakeasy de Luxe," states: "In the amazing travesty of pro- hibition enforcement the old cor- ner saloon has become a barricad- ed csstlo that drips with a super luxury not surpassed by the gilded salons of Monte Carlo."

However, it is admitted that, "This burst of magnificence so far seems confined to New York alone." It is also admitted that the "da- luxe hush hut" is of mushroom gowth. "here today and gone to- morrow."

After an extended apeli of mag-

yelp. Where are reliable witnesses on this wet verdict to be found? The contrary will be unanimously granted on the affirmation of the officers of the Salvation Army. Colonel George H. Davis, princi- pal of he Salvation Anny Training College, Chicago, says: ‘ “In our work on the streets in what is called ‘the lower portions’ of our cities, the Army does not now find, in connection with the street meetings, the open saloon vomiting out its array of drunken men (a few of them middle-aged and elderly but most of them young men), as was the case be- fore prohibition went into effect. "The open saloon is gone and this condition of things, so far as“ American manhood is concerned. has been reduced at least 90 per cent; in fact, the drunken man on. the street is something rarely seen in this day and generation." i

"I JUST LOVE A MURDER"

Some weeks ago when Bishop Kidd, London, 0nt., paid an offi- cial visit to Ingersol, in his address to the fathers and mothers of the confirmed children he urged close attention to the forms of amuse- ment entering into their children's lives. He emphasized that there were many moving picture films at this time which were so crude- ly suggestive that an innocent child could not see them without sinful results. He also stated that there were magazines, numerous newspapers and books so filthy that they should never be permitt- ed in the home.

Tidings refers to this particular- ly.,Just at‘ the time this warning was being given, a true and terrible story reached the editorial ear. A tlnie girl told her teacher that she did not like the last picture show she had seen. In answer to the teacher's inquiring, "Why?" re- plied, “There was no murder in ." A further interrogating, “Surely you do not like murders," received the positive reply, "I just love them and hang on the arm of’ the chair and have a good time."

IT'S THE BRAIN THAT COUNTS You can get along with a. wood-

a wooden head. The physical value of man is not so much. Man as an- alyzed in our laboratories is worth about ninety-eight cents. Seven bars of soap, lime enough to whito- wash a chicken coop, phosphorus enough to cover the heads of a thousand matches, is not so much, you see. It is the brain that counts, but in order that your brain may be kept clear you must keep your body fit and well. That can not be done if one drinks liquor.

You hear people tell how they had their wits quickcned for the first half hour by liquor, but they don't tell you bow later their body could not act in cit-ordination with their brain. You may hear on every side men bswail the loaa of their drink, o_f their personal rights, but the rights of the few who can- not see ahead or have the future of their nation at heart must be regulated to safeguard that fleet body of future citizens who are now ready to step into the ranks.
