forward into tbe great industrial
. army.
It ha added untold billions to tbe
nation's wealth, transferred anoney
from the saloon tills to savings bank
and newly erected homes.

overthrow of National Prohibition
and its attendant prosperity.
The liquor minority proposes to
to attain its end by capturing the
National Conventions Of the political
parties.
The dry majority, as demonstrated
'by ratification in forfty-five states,
MOST CONTROL thee convention.

To Seal Envelop***
Persons using bond paper envelope*
In their correspondence, are often an-
noyed when these envelopes fall tc
neal properly. This Is not due to •
poor quality of rum on the envelope,
but to tbe non-absorbent properties of
tbe hlfh-grade paper, and may be over-
come by thoroughly moistening the
flap on tbe outside before molstenlnf
the Bum. This will fnnnre parted
mllin and Is worth trying.
