(ADVERTISEMENT.) "'TIS STRANGE, 'TIS PASSING STRANGE." WILL THE LIQIIOR PARTY PLEASE EXPLAIN. THEIR LATEST AUTHOR. l'Y'3 { STATEMENT. Mrs Nelson (a lady from Main©) said:—'T see by the- paper that a friend of .Archdeacon. Koyce .tofldVliim iJliat lhe went to ia publio house in tihe State of Maine, and upon' his asking those of the sctbolars wfho hlad seen a drunken man to hold up their hand, iinot an arm was raised. That may be all right, but let me tell you that in the town of. Bangor, where I was born and brought up, we schoolgirls were- often obliged to take side .streets in order to avoid the iinimiermifi' drunken men who reeled about the main street frequently before one o'clock in the day." Thane was just as if not more, alcohol sold in Bangor, in State of Maine, according to Mrs Nelson, «s in any town in a liquorlicensed State, and, in fact, she. .believes that more homejs, were ruined through th© man of the family imbibing bad wjhnsky than in any other place .she has ever beew in. YET, "PROHIBITION IS A GREAT HAROSHIIP for invalids and sick people," said , 'Mh's. Nelson. "W(hy, often people •wane taken ill, at night, and unflless tluey went to a doctor and @ot a cer- | tifieaite, no wHii&ky, and, for the matter of that, not even alcohol, could he obtained at the ehemist'l9 shop. In contseqiiwnce, if alcoholic baths Ihiad been ordered by the doctor, un■iliesß the. patient went'to the doctor tevery day for .a certificate he was compelled to go without them." -If there is as mucin, or more, aieotho'l sold in Bhngor than there is k\ -any town in a liquor-licensed State, Qtow is it so great a hardship to procure a little for the "invalids and (sick people-," who at most only require it in'medicinal doses? Queer, i very queer, isn't it? -;' : A good robbing of the chest and back with ROOKE'S Eucalyptus Oil low, will relieve a cold. Ask for
