The citizen of Avondale, Ohio,.a subur-
ban town,have started a prohibition move-
ment that is of extraordinary interest to
----temperarrce-people arid'--nosliquor-men as
well, because it is not made by prohibit-
ionists and is not even basted upon hostility
to the drinking of intoxicating lienors. It
aims not to stop drinkiug but to abolish
the saloons and it attacks the aal000s for
the simple business -like reason that they
diminish the attractiveness of a suburb de•
voted to. residences and thus diminish the
value of real estate.

severe for a srriesofyears,the temperature
being below the average over the whole
wheat area east the Mississippi rit'ar,
and alternate freezing and thawing
wrought serious damage to bare fields, es-
pecia'ly in bottem and poorlydrainedlands.
Pennsylvania, Virginia and Ohio suffered
severely from this inclemency. The gen-

An -interesting -table in •the repott of •
vital statistics for Outltrin just issued, re.
specting•the cententarians who died in 1885
shows that, of the whole number of 23,
elevenor nearly one half, were of Irish
nation:, dity. One of these had reached the
extra,,rdinary age of 112. The next tinnier-
ous class are the Scotch, five in number.
The traditional longevity of th,e African
race is confirmed by the fact that two out
of the three American centenarians on the
list were colored.

impossible that the Canadian public will

look at the following;—"A plebiscite on
the question of the liquor traffic was taken
