Statistics prove that the Keeley Cure has a direct value to the public. It makes good citizens of men who have not only been a burden to the commun- ity themselves, but tlteir families have been a burden. Some of the briggtest men have rendered themselves 4! lutely incapable of self-support through their drinking. They have been given the Keeley Cure and be- came producers. Many of the public ofticers in various states and cities are Keeley Graduates, and but for the Keeley Cure would now be occupying drunkard’s graves. The earning ca- pacity of any Keeley Graduate has been visibly increased by the cure. Any community is benefited by send- ing a man addicted to the use of liquor to the Minneapolis Keeley Institute. It | gains in good order. It gains in in- | ereased earning capacity of the re- stored man, and it gains in having per- formed a righteous and charitable ac- tion to an unfortunate. In almost every community there is | some influential man who, through ig- rance or prejudice, raises his voice against the Keeley Cure, therefore pre- vented many men from deriving any benefit from it. In such cases it is the duty of the public to go right along in the path of right. It is cheaper to give a man the Keeley Cure than to con- tinue to support himself and family. ‘Those men who have been cured are to be found in every community; their friends and acquaintances know of the blessings they received, and do not hes- itate to endorse the Cure. No yexatious restraints are placed on the patients in the Minneapolis Keeley Institute. The only require- mént is gentlemanly conduct and the exercise of care in following out the regulations governing the administra- tion of the remedy. Vicious or refract- ory patients are dismissed the moment it becomes evident that their presence is improper infliction upon well in- tentioned associates. There is but one Keeley Cure, al- though there are hosts of imitators. These latter should be prevented from swindling the people, as they have no genuine cure. ‘The management of the Minneapolis Institute makes it a point to promptly answer inquiries and to forward literature, in a plain envelope, to those who send name and address to the Keeley Institute, corner Tenth street south and Park avenue, Minne apolis, Minn.

Time and again, carrying a letter in my hand so as not to forget it, I have walked right past lamp-post letter boxes and toted the letter right up to the ticket office of an elevated station, forgetting that I was carrying it until I wanted to. reach for money to buy a ticket with. Then T’d put the letter in my .pocket and that was goodby letter, perhaps for days. But this morning I did some- thing different; I started out before breakfast with a letter that I was to mail, and‘two cents with which to buy a stamp for it, the letter in one hand and the money in the other, I reached a sub-station of the postoffice that is in our neighborhood in safety and bought the stamp all right and stuck it on the letter, looking, as I did so, at a curious and yet familiar-looking tall red box with rounded top, that stood there by the desk. Still hold- ing the letter in my hand so as not to forget it, I carried it into a store where I had an errand to buy some- thing for the house, and there I set the letter down on the counter where I couldn’t fail to see it while I reached in my pocket for money. When I walked up the steps of my house @ little later with an appetite improved, if anything, by the breath of fresh air, it suddenly came to me that I had left the letter in the store, and I turned, of course, and went back for it. When I came to the corner nearest the store I found the young man wh6 had wait- ed on me just dropping my letter in the letter box there. Now, in this case, my forgetfulness resulted in the prompt mailing of the letter, but while I am, of course, pleased over this, I am at the same time disturbed by the thought that I may now develop my forgetfulness in some other new form that may not work out so happily.”~ New York Sun. , EFFECT OF FLOWING ICE. As Compared with That of Other Sculp- turing Agents. The action of flowing ice, whether in the form of river-like glaciers or broad mantling folds, is but little understood as compared with that of other sculp- turing agents, says the Atlantic. Riv- ers work openly where people dwell, and so do the rain and the sea thun- dering on all the shores of the world; and the universal ocean of air, though invisible, speaks loud in a thousand voices and explains its modes of work- ing and its power. But glaciers back in their cold solitudes work apart from men, exerting their tremendous ener- gies in silence and darkness. Coming in vapor from the sea, flying invisible on the wind, descending in snow, changing to ice, white, spirit-like, they brood outspread over the predestined landscapes, working on unwearied through unmeasured ages, until in the fullness of time the mountains and valleys are brought forth, channels fur- rowed for the rivers, basins made for meadows and lakes, and soil beds spread for the forests and fields that man and beast may be fed. Then, van- ishing like. clouds, they melt into streams and go singing back home to the sea. Standing on this adamantine old monument in the midst of such en- ergy, getting glimpses of the thoughts of God, the day seems endless; the sun stands still. Much faithless fuss is made over the passage in the bible telling of the standing still of the sun for Joshua. Here you may learn that the sun stands still for every devout mountaineer—for everybody doing anything worth doing, seeing anything worth seeing. One day is as a thou- sand years, a thousand years one day, and while yet in the flesh you enjoy immortality, Money and Marriages. From the Providence Journal: Is it lack of money that keeps men from marrying? This is the reason often advanced, and it seems to be justified by the recent episode at Chicago, where fifty couples rushed to take advantage of a free performance of the ceremony —how they were to live afterward evi- dently being a less important matter. Perhaps it is only in the higher walks of life that the blessed estate of holy matrimony is avoided on financial grounds. Society demands more and more of thos2 who belong to it, and young men. in moderate efrcumstances dread the burden of a wife and family, preferring their own selfish pleasure. This may be deplorable, but it is hard- ly strange. Cured by the Telephone. There is a popular character in Pendleton who has a slight impedi- ment in his speech. He talks eloquent- ly, but he stammers some, He recent- ly located in Pendleton because he ad- mires Missourians, and he has found the right kind here. The other day he went to the telephone to talk to a friend in Portland. When the talk was finished the Portland man said; “Well, old man, you seem to talk. better since you went to Pendleton. You do not stutter anything like as much as you did.” “No,” said the Pendleton man, clear and straight as a bell, “a man cannot afford to stutter through a tele- phone when to talk costs 75 cents a minute.”—East Oregonian. An Artistic Appetite. From the Boston Transcript: sini and Paganini were one day ban- tering each other about eating, and Rossini made a wager of a large sum that he would eat six full-grown lob- sters at one meal. Paganini accepted the wager, and Rossini actually won, but came very near dying from the eects, Ros- ‘Tours to California in Pullman Tour- ist Sleeping Cars Via the Chicago Great Western to Kansas City and the Santa Fe Route | to Los Angeles and Southern Califor: nia.

PERSONALLY CONDUCTED. | | | | | The Reason Why. “I can never share your lot, sir.” The beautiful girl arose from the so- fa upon which she had been sitting and waved away the man who had been pressing his suit.

Brockton’s prosperity is so closely al- lied to the prosperity of the shoe indus- try that it will, no doubt, prove a matter of interest to a large number of people to learn the actual average earning capacity of each individual employed in the mak- ing of the world-famed Brockton shoe. For illustration: At the factory of the W. L. Douglas Shoe company the ‘pay roll for the week ending Sept. 30, exclud- ing superintendent, foremen, salesmen, and all clerical help, shows the average earnings of the employes, large and small, to be $15.54 per week. This was not an extraordinary week. It was the cus- tomary pay roll. The amount earned per week, however, does not always tell the story of pros- perity. The number of weeks employed each year is the determining factor in the wage earners’ prosperity. :The Douglas factory has béen closed but one week this year, and that for the usual summer stock taking, and it will be closed. but three days the latter part of December, This would.make but nine days out of the year that the seetcry. is closed, which is surely as steady work as the most in- dustrious shoemaker could desire. Tt is believed that the average pay and the number of days worked is larger at the Sgstory. of the W. L. Douglas Shoe company than at any manufacturing in- stitution in Massachusetts. Owing to increased business, another addition is to be made to the Douglas factory. It will be 100 feet long, 40 feet wide, and five stories high. It will be ready for occupancy early in December. i This addition increases the capectey: 5 per cent. The W. L. Douglas Shoe com- pany has largest factory in world, producing an advertised line $3.5 and shoes. i Mr. Douglas says that the Lae gee for successful business for Brockton manu- facturers was never so good as now, and that collections are better than for years. —The Brockton (Mass.)
