SHINING LIGHTS. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., recently told bis Bible class that both' his father and his grandfather were total abstainers, and that he cheerfully followed in the path they had blazed, as a matter of principle. However, he added, that "In the country, as a whole the consumption of strong drink increases, which leads me to conclude that prohibition docs not prohibit." CARDINAL GIBBONS AND PROHIBITION. The Anti-Saloon League recently sent broadcast a story to the effect that Cardinal Gibbons favored the banishing of saloons. The Cardinal, however, was surprised that any one should for a moment doubt his stand on the question of prohibition. Be fore sailing from New York for Koine, on May 5th. Cardinal Gibbons said to the press: "My attiutde toward the liquor question has not changed, notwithstanding reports to con trary. 1 was quoted last week as having said that 1 favored the abolishment of saloons. That is only partly true. I am too old now to change my attitude on a subject as important as this. "What I said last week applied only to Charles County, Maryland, where the saloons were not conducted in a satisfactory manner. "While I am a strong advocate of temper ance, I am certain that prohibition can never be enforced, and it will make hypocrites and violators of the laws. It will also cause the manufacture of illicit whisky, which is not good, since it will replace a good product of its kind with a bad product. It will also rob the government of a legitimate tax and a very considerable one. Prohibition cannot be en forced in any Christian country, because it is contrary to the Christian spirit. 1 do believe in local option, and where the saloons are a menace to the community, I believe they should be abolished. That is why I advocated the abolishment of saloons in Charles County, but I would not advocate the same idea for the whole country. I think it would be detri mental rather than a help to the temperance cause. Literary circles of London have just rccoivod it thrill in tho announcement that Gabriolo D' An nunzio, the poet playwright, has decided to make bis home in London henceforth. WHERE WASTE IS SIN. If you know that it takes Nature 10,000 years to form a foot of soil, maybe you would have a higher opinion of Mother Earth and be more careful how you drain your garden or your field. If you saw a granary full of rat-holes, you would suspect a careless farmer. But a field left to wash away by the unchecked rush of surface water after a downpour is fully as wasteful. The only difference is that here the waste is of plant food before it gets into the grain. If your garden or field is on a slope, terrace it; if on a level, plant it. not in straight rows, but in circles. And in both cases, tile drain it. For the stuff that washes away is precisely the stuff that your crops most need in order to as tonish the natives by their thriftiness. And, once gone, it is expensive to replace. "When you stop to think that everything depends on the soil, clearly the soil is worth saving. Louis ville Herald. FOOLISH PHILOSOPHY. Life may be a bore even to the man who isn't one himself. Even in warm weather some people will put hot dressing on salad. Some people never seem to do much talking, ex cept when they have nothing to say. DoU't expend all your admiration on your an cestors. Save a little for yourself. Nature pays her debts except perhaps to the man who feels that the world owes him a living. A pessimist is a man who doesn't believe that clouds have silver linings. ' Love stories are so attractive that a girl is liable to forget to launder the dishes. A man isn't necessarily a carpenter because he is an expert joiner; he may be a minister.

"I feel it my duty to tell tho public tho condition of my health before using your medicine. I had falling, inflamma tion and congestion, female weakness, pains in both sides, backaches and bear- j ing down pains, was snore ot memory, nervous, impatient, passed sleepless nights, and had neither strength nor energy. There was always a fear and dread in my mind, I had cold, nervous, weak spells, hot flashes over my body. 1 had a place in my right Bide that was so sore that I could hardly bear the weight of my clothes. I tried medicines and doctors, but they did me little good, and I never expected to get out again. 1 got Lydia E. Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound and Blood Purifier, and I cer tainly would have been in grave or in an asylum if your medicines had not saved me. But now 1 can work all day, slesp well ut night, eat anything I want, have no hot flashes or weak, nervous spells. All pains, nches, fears and dreads are ?one, my house, children and husband ure no longer neglected, as I am almost entiiely free of the bad symptoms I had before tnking your remedies, and all h pleas-ire and happiness in my home."
