I Liquor Interests Fear “John
Barleycorn" in Movies"
| -
:
It is reported by the general
^ press that the liquor interests
of the Middle West have offer
^ ed $23,000 to the company
which is making the moving
pictures for the presentation of
Jack London’s “John Barley
corn,” if they will agree not to
exhibit them in certain speci
I tied states engaged in local
campaigns.
Frank Garbutt. vice-president
of the. company, is said to have
admitted that the offer had
been made, and quoted from a
letter in which R. J. Kilhoser,
j
corresponding secretary of the
i league, wrote:
“If you will hold off the pres
entation of these pictures un
, til December, i in the states ot
Illinois, Ohio, Wisconsin, In
diana, Iowa, Michigan and Mis
souri, we will pay'you $23.
000.”
“Shortly after we began work !
on the ‘John Barleycorn’ pic-!
(ures,” said Mr. Garbutt. “I re- j
J ceived a letter from Kilhoser in j
which he said his organization j
had heard of the pictures and
wanted to send a representa
tive to see them. On receiving
the representative’s report, he
said the League might make
me an interesting proposition.
“The representative saw Ihc
pictures, and then came the
letter stating that the board of
directors of the Personal Lib
,erly League did not wish them
shown, and making the offer
of S25.000.
“We turned the offer down
without hesitation. The pic- i
I tures point a great moral lesson
and while I am not a teetotaler, :
we are in the business of man
ufacturing films and selling
them and the offer will not be .
considered.

RECKLESS RAILROADING.
They Kicked on th« Speed and (lag
gage Smashing In 1846.
A correspondent-. Professor Edward
(.. Morse of Salem, sends the following
extract from a letter written by Louis
Agassiz to his mother. The letter Is
dated Boston. December. iS-lli:
“Leaving Boston the ltitb of October.
1 went by railroad to New Haven,
passing through Springfield. The rapid
ity of the locomotion is frightful to
those who are unused to It, but you
adapt yourself to the speed and soon
become, like all the rest of tile world.
Impatient of the slightest delay, i well
understand that an antipathy for this
mode of travel is possible. There is
something infernal in the irresistible
power of steam, carrying sucli heavy
masses along with the swiftness of
lightning.
"The habits growing out of contin
ued contact with railroads and the in
fluence they exert on a portion of the
community are far from agreeable un
til one Is familiar with them. You
would cry out in dismay did you see
your baggage flung pell rnell like logs
of wood—trunks, chests, traveling bags,
hat boxes—all in the same mill, and if
here and there something goes to pieces
uo one Is astonished. Never mind!
\Ve go fast—we gain time. That is the
essential thing."
And this was on the Boston and Al
bany! And there was baggage smash
ing in lS4t>!—■ Boston Herald.
TIME TO CURTAIL STUDY.
Check Brain Work When the Child Is
Growing Rapidly.
As soou ns a child begins to grow
rapidly all intellectual exertion should
be checked Such is the theory which
Or. C. Merrier, the famous English au
thority on children, expresses in an
article in the London Lancet Espe
cially when there is any family tenden
cy to nervous or mental disorder, rap
idly growing children should be with
drawn from school altogether until the
period of rapid growth is over.
Merrier does not think that intellec
tual work at high pressure is harmful
to either boys or girls as long as food,
sleep and bodily exercise are sutUcient.
but he is sure that pressure of intel
lectual work in those who are grow
ing rapidly should never be permit
ted. and if growth be proceeding very
rapidly all intellectual work should be
put aside.
Dr. Merrier insists that it is scarce
ly possible to give growing children
too much to eat. and It should always
be borne in mind that the carbohy
drates - starch, sugar and fat - are
mainly fuel that Is burned up in pro
ducing muscular movement and that
the proteins are the main elements in
the formation of tissue Consequently
it is a mistake to restrict the meat ra
tion of children
Nietzsche Hated the Germans.
"Nietzsche's personal charm of utan
ner." said Dr Braudes, tlie Dnnisli
critic in a recent lecture, “was in
strong contrast to the violence - with
which he attacked established institu
tions In his writings. His pet aver
sion was the Germans, and in his later
books the word Teutonic stood for him
for all that was evil. To dine with
Germans, he said, gave him Indiges
tion!
"This antipathy to his countrymen
is closely paralleled in Byron’s an
tipathy to En- .islimen. Stertdabl's to
tlie French and Heine's to tlie Ger
mans. It arose in Neitzscbe's case
from a disgust of humanity—a disgust
which was best expressed by what tlie
Greeks called misanthropy.”—London
Globe.
She Makes Violins.
Working quietly in a sunny apart- ;
ment in Brooklyn, tlie only woman i
maker of violins in this country, if
not in tlie world, plies her trade. She
came by her talent naturally, for her
father was a famous maker of violins
in Austria in his day. and lie impart
ed tlie secret of his art to his daugh
ter. Tlie young woman fashions tlie
delicate instruments with tlie master's
touch and then, when all is completed,
applies tile coat of varnish, that prof
ess which makes fir mars tlie finest ’
Instruments. The formula of the var
nish is a secret given to her by her
father.—New York Tribune.
French Kongo.
Tbe territory formerly known as the
French Kongo and now designated as

three colonies: Gabon, capital at Libre
