Indoor Constitutional.
Augustus O. Stanley, Kentucky’s new governor, who has mounted the water Wagon, announced recently that during his four-year term not a drop of intoxicating drink will be allowed In the state house. "The campaign that I propose to wage against alcohol,” said Governor Stanley, “is to be a thorough and honest campaign. There is too much hypocrisy among drinkers. Here is a typical instance: —“I sat one evening on a trolley car beside two women who were returning together from an shopping tour. “ ‘My husband goes out every evening for a little constitutional,’ one of the women said. Then she inquired: ‘Does yours?’ ~ “‘No,’ replied the other. ‘No; my husband always keeps —it in the house.'’’—Washington Star.
