PROHIBITION SUCCESS.
To the Editor: -
The experienee of prohibition in Ont-
ario has justified all its friends claimed
for it. The reports astonished the read-
er at the numbers of places that did not
have an arrest for drunkenness during
the first weeks. In the city of London
three days in one week there was not
one single drunk and the police were al-
most idle, At Camp Borden there was
not a drunk for a week among twenty-
five thousand men and there was a
marked improvement in discipline of
the entire camp. The St. Thomas
Journal is quoted as saying, "The pre-
dictions of the wets that there would be
a large bottle business has been knocked
into a cocked hat by actual results".
Probably the best proof of the success
of prohibition has been furnished by
Toronto.. On Monday the 18th there
were 135 drunks in the police court, on
Tuesday 6, on Wednesday none, on
Thursday 2, on Friday 2, and on Satur-
day 2. Evidently prohibition works
well in Toronto, Hamilton and London.
Another result of prohibition is a
considerable improvement on business.
The Pioneer remarks "Already the
money saved from bar -rooms rs helping
legitimate business of every city and
town in the Province in which local
option was not in force" "Street car
conductors told how much quieter were
their night loads, policeman had an
easier job, and many wives who
before had done their Saturday market-
ing alone, carried home larger parcels
than usual walking beside their sober
husbands. Even a newsboy reported
having sold twenty more papers than
usual.
The Star is quoted as saying "The
majority of a score of merchants was
emphatic in their statements that pro-
hibition has benefitted their business by
materially increasing the number and
amount of purchases made by their
customers." One merchant said "Last
Saturday was pay day and I noticed
that old customers whose purchases
were limited to one dollar, during the
last week's call made purchases of five
dollars or over, something these men
had never been known to do before.
And they seemed happy to have the
money to spend''.
Mr. Geo. Wright, of the Walker
House said in part "We have been
doing a very good business during the
past two weeks. Our hotel has been
full to capacity,'.
Who would want to go back to the
old way?

From the Times of Nov. 6, 1896.
Miss Sindie Roderus has return( d
from a lengthy visit in Brussels.
We are pleased to hear that Mr. Alex.
Dawson, who is on the sick list, is im-
proving.
D McDonald has removed his butcher-
ing business to the stand lately occupied
by T. Walker.
Mr and Mrs. D. M. Gordon were in
Listowel Sunday and Monday. Mrs.
Gordon's mother, Mrs. Palmer, being
ill.
Mr. James Patterson, son of Mr.
Archibald Patterson, of Bluevale, has1
been very sick in Manitoba. His friends
will be glad to know that he is on the
mend.
A team belonging to Jas. Cronin, of
Culross, ran away on Monday evening.
They started from the McKenzie FIouse
and ran along Josephine street to
Victoria, Minnie and John streets,
Coming in contact with a telegraph
pole at the Queen's they broke away
from the wagon but were soon caught.
Stanley. the young son of Robt.
Small, Victoria St., met with a serious
accident Wednesday morning. He and
some other lads were climbing on the
back of Hanna's delivery wagon which
was driven by Herb Wightman. In
attempting to climb in behind his foot
was caught in the wheel and his leg
broken above the knee.
Wm. Shortreed was arrested Friday
afternoon on a charge of stealing sheep
skins from W. J. Chapman. He appear-
ed before W. F. Brockenshire, Magis-
trate, Saturday morning, his counsel
asking for an adjournment until Monday,
which was granted. As bail was not
obtained, Shortreed remained in custody
over Sunday. When the case was
called W. J. Chapman, who was to
have appeared against the prisoner,
stated that he had no evidence to pro-
ceed with the case and Shortreed was
dismissed.
On Tuesday morning Alex. King, an
employee in Chapman's tannery, was
carrying a large bottle of sulphuric acid
across from the Hyman tannery, when
the bottle broke spilling the acid, a
part of it coming in contact with his
right cheek and severely burning it.
The front of his clothes were saturated
with the dangerous liquid; he im-
mediately threw off his coat, vest and
overalls, but in doing so his hands and
right arm were badly burned. In a
short time the discarded garments were
literally eaten up and had it not been
that he had on two pairs of pants the
accident would certainly have been
more serious.

A Gift and Message That Tickled
Lincoln's Sense of Humor.
RETURNING THE COMPLIMENT.
An Equivalent That Was Appreciated
and Treasured by the Confederate
Colonel -An Episode Born of the
Capture of General Stoughton.
Colonel John S. Mosby, the southern
cavalry leader in the war between the
states, accumulated many mementos
of that long and bloody struggle, but
none which be treasured more jealous-
ly than a lock of dark Bair wrapped in a
faded yellow scrap of newspaper. The
hair was cut from the head of Abra-
ham Lincoln. It was Lincoln's own
hand which cut it, and the great war
president himself who sent it
In the spring of 1863 the Army of the
Potomac lay along the north bank of
the Rappahannock, about fifty miles
south of Washington. The intervening
country was, of course, in the posses-
sion of the Union troops. Off in the
recesses of the Blue Ridge mountains,
about thirty miles westward, was
Colonel Mosby, with a body of picked
southern cavalrymen, seeking to do
what injury he could to the Federal
outposts and lines of communication.
About the middle of March there en-
camped at Fairfax Court House, a vil.
lage of about 500 inhabitants, halfway
between Washington and the army on
the Rappahannock, a force of several
thousand Union troops under General
Stoughton.
From a military point of view, his
camp at Fairfax was nearly as safe as
Boston. Between his own force and
the southern army, under General Lee,
lay General Hooker's great Army of
the Potomac. Even Colonel Mosby's
small force -less than a hundred men
-was thirty miles away.
Nevertheless, Colonel Mosby deter-
mined to capture General Stoughton.
Selecting twenty of his best troopers,
he started one drizzly March afternoon
for Stoughton's camp. It was after
midnight when be ran into the first
picket, who was easily captured in the
darkness. And thus, taking picket aft-
er picket in the black night, Colonel
Mosby made his way without alarm
into the village, until he entered Gen-
eral Stoughton's bedchamber.
The unhappy officer was compelled
to dress and accompany his captors.
The pitch black, rainy night and the
fact that the men of both commands
wore rubber capes of the same style
rendered it impossible for the prison-
ers, Stoughton included, to determine
the number of the enemy. With half
a hundred prisoners and a hundred
horses, Colonel Mosby quietly made his
way out of the camp and was soon be-
yond reach of pursuit.
The adventure created a stir in mili-
tary quarters. Stoughton was roundly
censured for allowing himself thus to
be stolen from the midst of his troops,
although he was in nowise to blame.
President Lincoln, whose sense of
humor nothing could quench, remark-
ed, when told of the affair, that he did
not mind losing the general, but the
hundred horses were a serious matter.
"I can make a general with the
scratch of a pen," he said dryly, "but
I can't make horses."
Shortly afterward Colonel Mosby,
with a few companions, was recon-
noitering in the vicinity of Washing-
ton. On the road he encountered an
old Dutch market woman taking her
garden truck in her cart to peddle it
through the Washington streets. Colo-
nel Mosby stopped and questioned her.
Noticing a pair of scissors at her belt
and having heard of President Lin-
coln's comments on General Stough -
ton's capture, he said:
"Do you know Mr. Lincoln?"
"Yah," replied the old woman. "Seen
him often, I have."
Taking the scissors, Colonel Mosby
cut off a lock of his hair, and wrap-
ping it in a piece of paper banded it
to the old woman, saying:
"I'm Colonel Mosby. When you get
to Washington go to the White House
and tell the president that Colonel
Mosby sent him this lock of his hair
and say also that he is coming over
Into, Washington some night to get a
lock of the president's hair."
The old market woman went her
way, and Colonel Mosby rode back
and forgot the incident Some weeks
later, however, when making another
reconnoissance in that neighborhood,
the old woman hailed him from a road-
side cottage. Hurrying into the cot-
tage, she brought fortb a scrap of
newspaper and delivered it to Colonel
Mosby.
"Here las a lock of President
Lincoln's hair," she said. "He tolt me
to say to you that he hat rather you
vonld not come ofer to see him and
that he send it to yon by me. Here it
Ise!"
As She Saw It.
"What is the meaning of specter,
Lizzie?"
"Please, sir, I don't know."
"Now, think. What is the specter
that usually frightens people?"
"The school 'specter, stir."
An Example.
"The evil that men do lives after
theni." Even when the arnatetfr cot:
netlay er dies he leaves the
p s e fatal in-
strument behind. -«London Tit -Bits.
Hold all the skirts of thy mantle ex-
tended when heaven is raining gold --
tastgrnt Proverb,
"DO YOU FOLLOW ME?"
You See the Point, of Course, if You
Get the Idea,
No person who values hie self respect
and who doesn't want to be lied to will
ever say "Do you follow me?" when
expounding a subject to a friend or ac-
quaintance. There are so many rea-
sons against the use of this interrogate
tory that only two or three of the best
ones need be mentioned.
If you are enunciating words et wis-
dom the chances are nine hundred and
ninety-eight out of nine hundred and
ninety-nine that you are not being fol-
lowed. On the other hand, if you are
enunciating foolish words it makes no
difference whether you are being fol-
lowed or not. A still more important
reason, however, is embodied in the
simple but inescapable fact that no
mau can ever be quite sure that he un..
derstands what the other fellow is try-
ing to express.
Therefore the proper answer to the
question "Do you follow me?" is al.
ways, "I don't know." That, of course,
makes the question itself absurd, and
It is made still more absurd by the
fact that few are honest enough to an-
swer, "I don't know," but insist upon
lying and saying, "Oh, yes; I follow
you all right enough."
It is clear, therefore, that the effort
Is quite hopeless. If you have some-
thing to express all you can do is to
pick out the most intelligent person or
persons you can find, express your idea
as well as you can and let it go at that
Do you get the idea?
Cranberry Apple Sauce. . -
A French Canadian guide came into
camp greatly excited. He had a hand-
ful of wild cranberries, which he ex-
hibited with pride.
"You know the li'l' cranberrie?" he
asked for assembled party. "Well, you
take the 11T cranberrie an' you put him
on the fire with plenty of de sug-oh,
big lot of de sug-an' you let him cook
long time. Then you take him off an'
let him cool. An' voila! You have a
more better apple sauce than you can
make out of de prune!"
War Taxation Invented.
War taxation, like everything else,
had to be invented. The king who
first thought of it in England was
Henry II. Instead of asking his bar-
ons to accompany him to French bat.
Uefields at their own charge, he com-
pounded with them, accepted "scut -
age" or shield money, and from the
burgesses he collected "gifts," "aids"
or "tillages." Henry could then hire
his own men, and if need be turn
them against the bold, bad barons
themselves, as the army was under
his own control. -London Tit -Bits.
To Openla Pocketknife.
Opening pocketknives is often very
hard on finger nails, and a stiff hinged
penknife or jackknife is practically
useless to a boy if he can't open it
readily. Tear off a pieee of newspaper
or writing paper about three inches
square. Fold it across once and then
slip the crease under the blade of the
knife. Grasp the paper firmly be.
tween the thumb and forefinger, as
close to the blade as possible. Then
pull steadily as if you were opening
the knife without the paper. If you
do not jerk it the paper will not tear.
In this way you can open many a
rusty blade that has been useless for
months.
Wishing Them a Safe Voyage.
"Mabel and George after much quar-
reling over the arrangements for their
honeymoon have decided to take the
trip in an airship."
"Well, 1 trust that when they get
above the clouds they won't have a
falling out."
What makes ns discontented with
our condition is the absurdly exag-
gerated idea we have of the happiness
of others. -French Proverb.

DR. WOOD'S
NORWAY PINE SYRUP
CURED HIM.
A cough is an early symptom of pneu-
monia. It is at first frequent and
;lacking, and is accompanied with a little
tough, colorless expectoration, which
soon, however; becomes more copious
and of a rusty red color, the lungs be-
come congested and the bronchial tubes
filled with phlegm making it hard for the
sufferer to breathe. Males are more com-
monly attacked than females, and a
previous attack seems to give a special
liability to another.
On the first sign of a cold or cough you
should get a bottle of Dr. Wood's Nor-
way Pine Syrup and thus prevent the
cold frons developing into some serious
lung trouble.
Mrs. E. C North Charles, Toronto,Ont.,
writes: i"Twu years
s ago my husband had
a very bad attack of pneumonia, and the
doctors said he was getting consufnption.
A friend came in to see me and told me
to get Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup.
I got three bottles, and they seemed to
quite clear his chest of the phlegm, and
now he is fine and Well.
I Shalt never be without it in the
house as it is a,.very valuable nledicine.'"

DIG THE DANDELIONS
According to recent experiments at
the Colorado Agricultural College, the
digging of dandelions in spring from
lawns cannot be expected to greatly
reduce the number of plants at the end
of the season. Most of the plants when
cut off, even to a depth of 2 or 3 inches
below the crown, had formed new
sprouts by the end of one month. The
chief advantages of early spring dig-
ging. however, are their temporary
removal from sight. and the prevention
of seed production and further multi-
plying of the plants from this source.
It is only in rare cases that the plants
thus dug succeed in recovering sufficient-
ly during the remainder of the season
to bloom again and it is an easy matter
to take care of these when they appear.
On the whole, therefore, a thorough
cleaning of the lawn in this ' ay before
seed ripening in spring, followed by a
second digging of these few which
bloom late in the season, should pre-
vent in large measure the reinfection
of the lawn from plants left to go to
seed upon the grobnd.
