(Sponsored by the Grand Division. Sons of Temperance P. ll. L _Z1-_Z'i'Z'1“-1_1 A STUPID BUSINESS An impartial analysis oi the whole drink business, mu-kills. Sellllls. buy' ing, drinking, impresses one with its imbeclliry quita as much as with its immorallty. Alcohol itself, of oollrse, ma-kes people addlc-headed. It also seems as if governments that try to handle it as a business be- come stupefled and befuddled by it. Three simple statements regarding it, accepted for fact by every com- petent authority, wll.l prove the point. » 1-It helps nobody. Alcohol is not necessary in any shape or form for the healthy human system. Not only S0 but it is positively danger- ous even in the smallest quantities. There is no advantage for anybody in using it. Whatever may be said for its use as u. drug in case of ill- ness-and very little can be said- it has no value as a beverage. 2-It hurts everybody. Alcohol is harmful to the human body. The hurtful consequences can be detect- ed ln the case of very tiny doses under the most favorable circum- stances. The injury may be slight if thc proper precautions are taken, Such as drinking at meal-time, in moderate quantities, of greatly dil- uted strength. But there will be a reduction of physical skill and mental alertness nevertheless. 3--It WNOIIB many. There 15 no need to enlarge on ths aspect of the matter. The story is age-old and world-wide. So terrible are the so- dll wnsequenees that practically every decent citizen recognises the need of some drastic method of dellllflg with it. 'Ilo .a large section of the world's population it brings Pvverly. misery, ignorance, vice. Nor il it only the baser sort that it de- stroys. The brilliant are often 01110118 its victims. It reduces them to beasts. Many lives are blasted and many homes are turned into hella. For Governments to permit or 1,0 utilize the drink traffic is an amaz- lns lmbeclllty.

It was an actual relief to think that to-morrow would be Monday, and he would be back in the clean busy stir of thc Mack again. _ He told himself, when Monday arrived, and he reached the store to find u. dcmurcly radiant Maggie prettier and more endearingly pro- prietary in her manner toward him than ever, that this nonsense must stop. Therefore, it was with 9. real surprise that he heard himself say- ing to her, late on Tuesday after- lnoonz “What you doing to-night, Msg- gie?" “Nlght school," she answered, col- our and breath beginning their usu- al acceleration instantly. _ "Night school!

The colour had ebbed from her face, and putting her elbows on the table, she had covered her face with her hands- those small hard, red hands that Joe found so infinitely pathetic. "Goodness help me, it's that way with me now, Joel" she whispered, not meeting his eyes. They walked back to the store ln absolute silence. One night in early February,_it chanced that at the Merrill table there were dining but three men: George Howard Merrill, president of the entire chain of stores, his trusty rlghtharld man and general man~ user, one Frank Flint, and the son of the house, Joseph Grant Mac- Kenzie Merrill. The last named was included in the party merely because he hap- pened to be in the house, with no dinner engagement and because a wild ruin was falling. George Mer- rlll cared no longer whether his son and heir crime or went. Yet he had blindly ldolized his son. That young Joe had shown s. ls- mentable indifference to society, and had flunked in college, after dispos- ing cf a small fortune in various idiotic, if not actually harmful ways, had been a bitter blow to the fa.ther‘s honest, hard-working pride. Since, however, he was actually living, they had begun, for the first time in his twenty years, to permit him, in their disgust and disappoint- ment, to find his own level. Bo that on this particular even- ing, upon seeing three places set at the family board, his father, scowl- ingly lnterrogating the butler, mere- ly shrugged when the answer was that the third place was for Mr. Joseph. ‘ “0h, he don‘t matter!" said George Merrill. “We want to talk business But Mr. Joe's all right. He won't hear a. word we say!" “I wish he would," Frank Flint, a big, rosy, silver-headed man, said and fleeing wildly from Joe’s too se- p°1|¢»,ely_ owe wan; that boy in me business, some day.” Mr. Merrill responded simply: "Frank, I don't know what he’e doing, or what he wants to doi They're too much for me, nowadays.

If he seems to catch on to anything to- night, as we talk, Frank, see if you can draw hirrl out." "Sorry to be late," said Joe, at this point, coming in. “You're not late," his father ss- sured him ungraciously.

A solemn hush fell over th crowded court room, and every per- son waited in almost breathless ex- pectatlon for the answer to the judgo‘s question. Not a. whisper was heard any- where, and the situation had become painfully oppressive, when the pris- oner was seen to move, his hen raised, his hand clinched, and the blood rushed into his dull, care- worn face. Suddenly he arose to his feet, and in o. low, but distinct voice, said: ` “I stand here, before this bar, convicted of the wilful murder of my wife.
