The Russian Liquor Law. —The liquor law of Russia is very comprehensive, and easily understood. There is no “ local option” about it, but the Czar decrees that theiv“ shall be no more than one drink shop in any Russian village, and where two or three villages are close together the one drink shop will suffice for all, and this shall be managed by a “ man, born and resident in the village,” who shall be appointed by the Common Council and paid by salary, ife is to derive no pecuniary profit, beyond his salary, is to sell also food and wares, and is liable to a line, dismissal, and even imprisonment if he allows any man or woman 10 get drunk on his premises. In a given contingency, if the population should become notoriously drunken and disorderly, the communal authorities are to interdict the sale of liquors entirely in that district or village for as long a time as they shall see fit.
Holloway’s Pills.— No Mystery. —Whenever the blood is impure or the general health is impaired the human body is prodiaposed to attacks of any prevailing epidemic. The first, indication of faulty action—the first sensations of deranged or diminished power should be rectified by these purifying Pills, which will cleanse all corrupt and reduce all erring functions to order. These Pills counteract the subtle poisons in decaying animal or vegetable matter, and remove all tendency to bowel complaints, biliousness, and the host of annoying symptoms arising from foul stomachs. The fruit season is especially prone to produce irrita tion of the bowels and disorder of the digestive organs; both of which dangerous conditions can be completely removed by Holloway’s corrective medicines. —[Am.]
