Drug stores that sell no drugs, drug stores In which one cannot but- even a quinine pill or a dose of salts, drug stores whose prescription cases are simply the shields behind which clerks may regularly serve Intoxicating drinks —such Is the somewhat amusing story that comes to us from tiler Hunllower State. We may easily believe that the story Is true, for ln Kansas, and every where else on this terrestrial ball, human nature Is human, and when thirsty will And some sort of way to get Its thirst quenched. And yet there are thousands of wise and gum] people who are stanch advo cates of'the prohibitory system. These people say, "We freely admit that pro hibition falls far short of doing nil that Ita friends desire' It to do. but It does something. It does a great deal, and for that fact, we should feel pro foundly thankful. It makes It more difficult to obtain liquor, and While mnny continue to drink, others, rather lhaft put themselves to the trouble Im posed by the law, go without It and are eventually weaned from the drink habit. "Again." tlie champions of prohibi tion say "prohibition puts the manu facture and sale of ardent spirits under the ban. stamps ‘outlaw' upon It, and. In the name of the humanity It would degrade and ruin, drives ft from the light of day Into the darkness that la Its fitting home. “If you will make and sell the ac cursed stuff," cries the prohibitionist, "you shall sell It, not with the law's sanction and approval, but under the law's frown and curse. Because strong drink Is man’s most deadly enemy It Is rlkht lo try to stop Its manufacture and sale. Prrohtbltlon Is the attempt to establish that right and therefore It Is the holy duty of every lover of hi* kind td stand by It to the last ditch."
