TIPS TRAINING CAGE. ; Once upon a time Tip went to the park to visit his cousin. Baby John and the nurse did not go t day, and Tip hopped along alone as happy #8 any squirrel could be, His cou- : n Was gid to see him, and took him his new house, where they had a Ereat feast of nuts. Now Tip was beginning to get very fat, and that night Baby John's fa- ther anid he was going to bring home 8 training cage for Tip s0 he would more exercise, The baby didn't know what that could be, and the next night was at the door to meet his father and see what he had ' brought home, ' : * Father undid the bundle, and in it Was a very strange looking cage, It had a wire frame with a door, and _ from that to another cage with what "aouken like a wheel in it. If didn't take long to find Tip, for he didn't know anything about the new training cage, and was al- ways willing to try anything once, First they opened the deor to the firat cage, and when Tip was in, shut and fastened it tight. Then they lifted the other door and Tip walk- ed in to the wheel, . As soon as he did so the wheel be- gan to turn around and Tip had to go with ft, Paster and faster it went until it almost took Tip's breath away, and, although he tried as hard as he could to stop it, jt wouldn't stop, and he had to.run to keep up with the funny thing. When they opened the doors afd let Tip out he was so tired that he tan at once to his basket and lay down. Each day Tip was put into the cage, and he had to run so fast and s6 much that pretty soon he be- gan to grow thin, It didn't take Tip long to know that if he ate and ate and made a Httle pig of himself he would have to go into the cage. Now when he vigits his cousin he is very careful not -to eat too many nuts, and at home Tie is very genteel ahout his appetite and table manners.

BOURKE Former Kingston Pastor Says Great Minds Opposed PROHIBITION This is what the foremost men of Great Britain, Canada and the United States, in the Church, on the Bench, in literature and public life, have, to say about Prohibition : ' 'Read Their Very Words: "When a law is flagrantly and habit- ually violated it brings legislation into contempt. It creates a spirit of decep- tion and hypocrisy, and compels men to "do insidiously and by stealth what they would otherwise do openly and above board. You cannot legislate men by civil action into the performance. of good and righteous deeds."'-- Cardinal Gibbons. ~ "Prohibition drives underground the mischief which it seeks to cure, making it more difficult to deal with the evil and impossible to regulate the trade, as, for instance, in the quality of liquor sold."--Bishop Hall, Vermént. "When you enact a law intended to do more than it ought td do, it generally ends in doing less than it should do. For that reason I am opposed to pro- hibition by statute. I would rather see America free first and then have its citizens use its freedom for moral ends." --Rev. 8. Parkes Cadman, Central Con- gregational Church, Brooklyn, N.Y. 5. OS "He (ChXist) condemned drunken- ness, but never in a single instance lifted up His voice in condemnation of drink- ing. On the confrary, He commenced His public ministry by making wine in considerable quantity, and of fine quality, and this apparently only to add to the joyous festivities of a wedding." --Rev. Lyman Abbott. "It is not in the power of Parliament, by an Act of Parliament, to change the habits "of the people and in all prob- ability a law such as you propose (Tem- perance Bill), if-it' were ta be passed, would fail absolutely and become a dead letter." -- The Rt. Hon. John Bright, M.P. "I have been a great traveler and I have seen prohibition abound in the United States, dnd _it only leads to drinking in more forms than under the old system."-- Joseph Chamberlain, M.P. "Prohibition has been disastrous to the cause of temperance,' Bishop Clark, Rhode Island. "While I recognize the evils of the liquor traffic, I am nevertheless driven to the conviction that prohibition will be a failure in the attempt to cope. with such evils. In many states it is already _ a failure, the net results of such legis- lation being to multiply illicit bars, and at the same time to deprive the com- monwealth of the revenue accruing from license." -- =. Right Rev. P. J. Donohue, Roman Catholic Bishop, Wheeling, W.Va. "We hear a good deal about com- pelling men to be good--forcible, col- lective action to improve the individual --and many of these forces are wise and dood. But freedom is the greatest privi- lege of man--the right to work out his own destiny. It is also best for the general public."-- v Ex-Pres. Chas. W. Eliof, of Harvard. "It is impracticable, and its violation is productive of hidden and shameful evils."--Bishop Gailor, Tennessee. "The best safeguard against drunk- enness is that drinking should be en-/ joyed openly."--Rabbi Hirsch, Chicago. "Prohibition can remove open temp- tation from the young and from per- sons disposed to alcoholic excess. It is practically helpless against 'dives,' 'pocket-peddlers' and all the well-known varieties of secret temptation which have such a fascination for the young. 'Stolen waters are sweet." Still less can it subdue that desire for some stimulant which is all but universal in human nature, and which, when ordinary means of gratification are denied, finds relief in opium, morphine, chloral and drugs. We are told that laws edncate in the right direction. Not unless they are based on reason and on equity. Now theYeason of mankind has spoken em- phatically against prohibition. It is essentially class legislation, and that always provokes hatred."-- ' Ex-Chancellor Grant, Queen's Univ. "Nothing can be better proved than that to carry into effect laws of this kind in a free country you must have the conscience of the people theroughly and actively with you. Will they do their best to throw into gaol and ruin a neighbor, otherwise harmless, perhaps a friend or acquaintance, for selling or drinking a glass of whiskey or ale? Besides, there are other intoxicants, such as opium and chloral, the use of which would be likely. to increase when liquor was withdrawn."-- Goldwin Smith, Former President of the Liberal Temperance Union.
