THERE’S A REASON
WHY THE MOOSE LODGES
ARE GROWING SO FAST
;
■
The Loyal Order ot Moose of the World was first organ
ized at Louisville, Kentucky, on April 12, 1888. For a short
time its membership was confined to the mother lodge, but
soon it began to spread. Today there are 2,000 lodges with a
membership of more than one million. The Moose are grow
ing faster than any other fraternal order. There is a reason.
The Moose pays its members a benefit of $10 per week when
misfortune overtakes them and they fall sick. The Moose
provides for the burial of its deceased members and cares for
their loved ones left behind. Their children are educated
and given a chance to win in the battle of life without handi
cap. The order provides for the declining days of Moose,
both men and women. The charter initiation fee is only $10
and dues $3.25 quarterly.
There is no better way to provide for the future of your
family than by becoming a member of the Moose. For fur
ther particulars see National Director J. Frederick Johnson.

Our annual imports of mineral wa
ters are over 3,000,000 gallons, hav
ing a value of nearly a million dol
lars. Two-thirds of these imports
came from Germany, France and Aus
tria-Hungary, and as soon as the
stocks on hand are consumed domes
tic waters should take the place of
those derived from foreign springs.
In this connection it is interesting to
note that last year the reported sales
from 838 commercial springs in the
United States were more than 67,
000,000 gallons, having a total val
ue of $5,600,000. The recent activ
ity of the New York State Reserva
tion Commission in conserving the
natural mineral waters at Saratoga
Springs, as well as in improving lo
cal conditions, is of interest in call
ing attention to the many opportun
ities in this country for utilizing such
waters and adopting modes of treat
ment similar to those which have
made the bath resorts of Germany
and Austria famous. There is a
somewhat popular but fallacious im
pression that certain European wa
ters have medicinal properties not
possessed by any American waters,
and many persons addicted to the
Apolllnaris, Clysmlc or' Celestine
Vlchy habit might be equally well sat
isfied by waters from American
springs in bottles of American glass,
bearing labels printed in the United
States.
