Booze Figures Belied. Macon News. However much friends of liquor and enemies of prohibition, State-wide or national, may attempt to prove that the prohibition movement has not de creased the consumption of liquor, there bobs up occasionally a happening which throws more light on the matter than does all the statistics that might be cited in a whole decade. For while fig ures may be deceiving, and statistics may be so arranged as to make them convey a false impression, there can be no mistaking the trend of things when breweries and distilleries all over the country are going out of business, ad mitting that theirs is no longer a pay ing investment. Two breweries and a distillery went out of business in Philadelphia a few weeks ago. The Alex Young Distilling Company had been in operation ninety- three years. The grandsons of the founder announced in closing down that the habit of drinking was declining so that the business had become unprofit able. Fred Wolf, one of the brewers, said he was closing his business because people were drinking less beer each year. “There is no money in the brewery business and it is getting worse each year.” he said. “The liquor business is dying a natural death, the small brew eries are losing money, and the profits of the large ones are so small they are not good investments any more.” The other brewery to shut its doors was the Bergdoll Brewing Company. To hear the Wholesale Liquor Deal ers' Association talk, to scan the sta tistics issued from time to time by the friends of the liquor business, one is led to believe that prohibition has increased rather than diminished the consump tion of liquor in the United States. It must be rather disconcerting to these men, therefore, to have concerns among the oldest in the country to quit busi ness because they cun no longer make it pay. It proves that in spite of the liquorites’ best efforts the consumption of liquor is not only falling off, but that this dropping away has already reached very considerable proportions. “De ’Liminator Got Busted.” Two men were in the, dining car ordering breakfast. The first one said to the waiter: “George, you may bring me two fried eggs, some broiled Virginia ham, a pot of coffee and some rolls.” “Yassah.” The other said: "You may bring me the same.” “Yassah.” The second man then called after the waiter, and remarked: “Just eliminate the eggs.” “Yassah.” In a moment the waiter came back. “Scuse me, boss, but jes what’d you- all say about dem nigs?” “I said.just eliminate the eggs.” “Yassah,” and he hurried again to the tiny kitchen. In another moment he came back once more, leaned confidentially and penitently over the table, and said: “We had a bad accident jest afo’ we ief de depot dis mornin’, boss, an’ de 'liminator done got busted off, right at de handle. Will yo’ take ’em fried same as dis hyar gem’man?” One of the spears carried to Harper’s Ferry by John Brown and his troops in 1859 for the purpose of arming the slaves preparatory to their contem plated fight for freedom was turned over to the New Jersey State House Commission by Henry Lawton, a vet eran of the Civil War, and will be placed in the State museum. Follow ing the arrest of Brown and the dis persal of hiB band the spears were con fiscated. A few stray ones were left, however, and one of these was pre sented to Lawton by a Southern family whose friendship he won during the war. Cure for Cholera Morbus. “When our little boy, now seven years old, was a baby he was cured of cholera morbus by Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy,” writes Mrs. Sidney Simmons, Fair Haven, N. Y. “Since then other members of my family have used this valuable medicine for colic and bowel troubles with good satisfaction and I gladly indorse it as a remedy of ex ceptional merit.” Jointed Snake Signals Like a Locomotive. Lamed, Kan., July 25. —Enoch Chase had a peculiar experience while taking the logs out of the old dug-out on Mel Hicks’ place. He ran across a jointed snake down between the logs and hit it with his spade. Every joint Hew apart and started to wiggle off. Enoch, just for a joke, picked up one of the joints anil put it in a bucket, and then slipped behind the logs and waited to see what would happen. In about ten minutes he heard a sort of low whistle, and then a rustling. The head of the jointed snake came out of the weeds and looked around. It made a peculiar whistle and another joint backed up and fastened on to the head. The head whistled twice and joint No. 2 came out, and so on, so many whistles for each joint, until it came time for the one Enoch had in the bucket. At its call the thing thrashed around in the bucket like all possessed, but couldn't get out. Of course, without the joint that fit, the snake couldn’t get together. Enoch said the last he saw of it the head had taken charge of one-half and the tail the rest and had gone off in ditferent directions to hunt up the miss ing joint. Enoch got almost home with his joint when an automobile tooted down the road. This either scared the joint or it was its coupling-on signal, for Enoch sayB it managed to Hop out of thq bucket and get away in the tall grass. _ The genuine, unadulterated, 99 7-8 per cent, pure Mexican Boll Weevil is right now in our midst. He is here with his entire family, and he is going to stay just as long as accommodating farmers will plant cotton for him to feed upon. Now that the weevil is actually here in quantities and has al ready begun doing considerable dam age, it is not going to help matters to try to conceal the fact that we have him, and it will materially hurt mat ters for our farmers to get excited and discouraged. Take it coolly. Let us all get together and devise the best ways and means to farm profitably without depending on cotton. It can bo done, because other StateB that have been swept by the boll weevil have proved that it can bo done.—Ba ker County News.

Although every newspaper publisher and printer has long since realized that paper of every kind and quality haB in creased in price, there are some of the former accustomed to purchasing their news print stock in small lots who have not realized just what the increase has meant. Print paper prices are quoted by the mills and dealers at pound or ton rates, and from $2.50 per 100 pounds, or 2} cents per pound, have steadily mounted upward, until to-day publishers are forced to pay from $4.75 to $0 per 100 pounds, depending upon the size of the order, an increase ranging around 100 per cent. News print paper in the Bix-column quarto size weighs 24 pounds to the quire, and when it was purchased at the 24 cent per pound price cost the buyer 61 cents per quire. Now pub lishers are obliged to pay for the same size 4} to 6 cents per pound, equiva lent to 12 cents to 15 cents per quire. This increase in the cost of paper is cutting deeply into the profits of the publisher who is not meeting condi tions by raising his subscription rate, advertising and job prices.
