READ WEIL’S AD. The Sedalia Bazoo sounds the tocsin on an important subject as follows: “That the tobacco habit among boys is growing becomes more apparent every day, as one sees little fellows not out of the short breeches stage striding along with a cigar or a cigarette between their lips. A strong dose of strap oil, ap- plied externally, while perhaps not reaching the seat of the disease, will make the boy remember, as he takes his meals standing up, that if tobac- co has any place at all in the social economy is for the exclusive use and behoof of men only.” Read Weil’s Ad- Those who expected to hear Ham- let “mouthed” at the opera house Monday night by the Garrick & Sturgeon company were agreeably disappointed. Mr. John Sturgeon as the “melancloly Dane,” sustained that character admirably, and did some very fine acting. His concep- tion and rendition of the character throughout was very good as was also his elocution. Miss Helena Coollier made an excellent Ophelia, having beauty and talent combined. She played the insane act admirably and won the admiration of the whole audience. The cast of characters throughout were very good. In fact it was the only time Hamlet has ever been creditably played in our eity.

Judge Philip handed down an in- | | teresting decision in the case against | D. C. Berry. druggist of Foster, this | ' | county. charged with ng liquor | without paying the government tax. Berry is a druggist, and had sold | in course of his trade a bottle con- | taining a liquid which he termed | “Lemon Ginger.” He sold it as a |medicine and claimed that he was not amendable for a violation of any jstatute. Judge Phillips decided in his favor. He said: There ought to be something more to constitute a violation of the statute than the mere fact that a compound or sub- stance bought and sold has contain- tained among its ingredients some alcohol. In some cases a compound is given some other name as a mere device to cover the real character of the article which in fact is an intoxi- cant bought and sold as a beverage rather thanas a medicine. If ‘lem- on ginger’ was purchased for me- dicinal purposes its sale is not a vio- lation of the statute. If it was pur- chased simply as an intoxicant then it comes within the law. Applying these tasts to the facts under sub- mission they iall short of making out a cause justifying a conviction.” se Cloaks! Cloaks!! Cloaks!!!

In the October number of the Forum Arch-deacon Farrar made a narrative of Tolstoi’s remarkable ca- reer, explained the religious mean- ing and the literary value of his great novels, and criticised his relig- ious teachings.
