FIGHT PROHIBITION LAW, BUT WILL
THEY STILL Q.ST TIGHT IN ALABAMA?
The new state-wide prohibition law has gone into effect in
Alabama. It prohibits any newspaper In the state from pub
lishing a liquor advertisement. It prohibits any advertisement
of liquor being posted on any billboard, or other place in the
state. The law cuts out the locker and the club and the near
beer stands. It condemns the property where a blind tiger Is
run and holds the keeper in damages to the owner. It cuts out
the manufacture of near-beer and other so-called temperance
drinks which are really Intoxicants. It provides for the raiding
of public places without warrant where liquor is supposed to be
sold. It makes the drinking of liquors on trains a misdemeanor.
It makes the refusal of witnesses in court to divulge the names
of law-breakers, contempt of court, and it provides as a penalty
for violations a money fine and not less than six months im
prisonment . -
OUTBURSTS OF EVERETT TRUE
MASQUERADES TO MILK
Indiana Farmer Has to Dress Like
Wife to Approach Her Cow
COLUMBUS, Ind.. Aug. 30.—8i1l
Bankster, a farmer "near here, is
not chanting "My Wife's Gone to
the City, Hurray! Hurray!'' He
hasn't been "hurraying" to any ex
tent since he has been left at home
to do the milking.
The family cow has to be hu
mored. Mrs. Bankster always had
success with "Bossy" at milking
time. On the contrnry, Bill didn't
look good to "Bossy." There would
be no milk on tap when Bill came
round.
Now with Mrs. B. away, here was
a fix. The husband tried to salve
tbe cow with a few kind words, and
all he got for his trouble was a
kick that sent the milk pail spin
ning.

do not throw up their hands (fig
uratively speaking). No. They
meet conditions with tact and wis
dom. Next morning a graceful fig
ure in sunbonnet and calico gown
approached "Bossy." The cow met
it half way, cordially. Evidently
Mrs. Bankster was back on the
job. That shows how little the cow
knew about it. The milking pro
ceeded in breathless silence, the
farmer daring to utter no word less
his disguise be penetrated. When
the last drop had been coaxed into
the brimming pall, Bankster stole
away with it. "Aha, me proud
beauty, at last ye are In me power,"
he mutter when out of hearing.
This performance will be repeat
ed daily unless some busybody goes
to the cow and snitches on Mr.
Bankster.

SHORT
SHA V/NGS
They were on their honeymoon
trip on the river and wenen't well
versed In nautical colloquialisms.
That's why they took it so much
to heart —especially the bride. She
blushed a bright red every time she
saw the captain afterward, and she
hasn't learned the difference yet.
If she reads this, it may set her
mind at rest.
They were huddled up close in
the lee of the pilot house, watch
ing the moonlight on the waves and
thinking how nice it was to be mar
ried, etc. Perhaps they were sit
ting a bit close, but then it seemed
so nice to have their arms around
each other.
The boat was keeping close in
shore, just a trifle too close,
thought the captain, who stood al
most above them. So he called to
the steersman:
"Lay off a little! Don't hug her
up too close!"
It's like pulling teeth to keep
from using the name of this den
tist, but friendship and policy for
bid. We may need his services
sometime.
That's just what the trouble was
with the dentist and his cook. He
needed her services. So when she
confronted him one day with the
possibility of leaving to seek more
remunerative fields he thought a
second time before telling her to
go.
He was paying what he thought
was a good wake —..6.50 a week
and keep. But she was a good
cook and good cooks are difficult
to find. He was sure his wife
wouldn't approve of paying more,
but he didn't relish the idea of try
ing out a new cook any better than
he thought he'd relish a new do
mestic's cooking.
So it came to be understood be
tweent the dentist and the cook
that her official salary should re
main at $6.50 but that in reality it
would be $7.50, the msater of the
house paying the additional $1 on
the q. t.
Now when the cook made her
plaint to the master, she duplicated
it to the mistress. The mistress
didn't like the idea of a change
any better than her husband. To
keep peace and the cook she ad
: vised the girl to stay and she'd pay
her an extra 50 cents —on the side
—each week.
Both husband and wife congrat
ulated themselves that they had
saved the day. Also the cook and
their digestion.
But as all things have an end, so
did the reign of this domestic.
When she finally had gone, hubby
confessed contritely:
"I didn't let you know It, Grace,
but I was paying her an extra $1
each week."
"What? Why, I was paying her

BEST shoes yon can get for
these reasons: They WEAR
best; because they contain
the very finest quality of
leather, which is made espe
