You puss two kinds of people on the streets ?ciphers arid acquaintances. One or two folks you recognize. The rest you have no dealings with. You couldn't call them by name. As far as you are concerned, thev do not exist. It is just the same with arricies in the stores. Some few tilings you single out from the rest. ^ ou are familiar with their looks and names. You know their good qualities. Innumerable other articles on counters and shelves have no interest for you. If they have an identity, you are nui aware of it. They remain "unblest, unhonored, and unsung." These unfamiliar articles may be good articles, but people don't know about them. While agoing busines ; is not, strictly speaking. "dead to the world," the world is asleep so far as its existence is concerned. The remedy is to "tell the world."

Sec- ' retary Mellon has asked Attorney Gen eral Dauirhenrty to rule whether com? mercial firms can be permitted to deal in wines for religious purposes. Under an opinion of former Attorney General Palmer which banned whole? sale lio.uor dealers from selling intoxi? cants, the Treasury contemplated the inclusion of the dealer in sacramental wines in the general category. Protests against a ban on the dealers in wines for religious purposes were lodged with the Treasury by a number cf denominations on the ground that the churches were unable to obtain wines of a standard quality from other source?. Existing regulations confin? ing the sale of liquors in wholesale quantities to wholesale druggists and manufacturera have exempted sacra? mental w;ne dealers pending Mr. Daugherty's determination of the law.
