Tbe Mate of Nebrndcn, with twon-ty-two
others, became bone dry by
federal statute at niidnUht Saturday
night, the effective hour of the Reed 'either ease the penalty is made one
prisonment for nix months, or both,
on any person who shall "order, pur
chase or cause intoxicating liquora to
be transported In Interstate com
merce except for scientific, sacra
mental, medicinal or mechanical
purposes Into any state or territory
the laws of which state or territory
prohibit the manufacture or aale
therein of Intoxicating liquors for
beverage purposes."
The same penalties are prescribed
for violators of the antl-advertlsint
section. For a second offense In
amendment prohibiting shipment of
liquor into any territory where its
manufacture or sale is prohibited.
Eleven other states are partially af
fected by the legislation, which has
been hailed by temperance advocate
as the greatest single step toward
abolition of the liquor traffic in the
nation's history. The law bars from
prohibition areas, whether state or
smaller corporations, all mail matter
containing advertisements or solici
tations for ordem for intoxicants, a
provision designed to aid in enforc
ing the anti-shipment feature by sup
pressing the activities of mail-order
houses in dry territory.
Justice and postofflce department
officials have made extensive prepar
ations for enforcement of the stat
ute. Ethyl alcohol is regarded by
the federal government as an intox
icating liquor within the meaning of
the act, but methyl, wood and de
natured alcohols are not so regard
ed. No ruling has been made re
garding the stains of patent medi
cines containing alcohol, and that
question may be among the first to
be passed on by thevourts under the
legislation.
The language of the anti-shipment
section Is very comprehensive,
imposing a fine of $1,000 and im-
year's imprisonment
Following are the states wholly af
fected by the act: Alabama. Arixona,
Arkansas. Colorado. Georgia, Idaho.
Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Mississippi, Ne
braska. North Carolina, North Dako
ta, Oklahoma. Oregon. Rhode Island,
South Carolina, South Dakota. Ten
nessee. Vermont, Virginia. Washing

Those partially affected are Cal

York, Ohio and Texas.
The following are affected at fu

tion.
The spirit of the entire convent ion
was good and muc h that was helpful
was brought out One of the im
portant items of interest was the
planning to help the church at Bay

raised to assist in the work.
Rev. VV. A. Mulford withdrew

Many persons use fresh eggs for
baking, tho preserved eggs are just
as good, says the poultry section of
the College of Agricull lire. Ill fact,
preserved egg is so n aii like fresh
egg that it Is hard to distinguish
them after they have been cooked.
Eggs may be preserved by ftoring
them in a solution of 9 quarts of wa
ter to 1 of commercial water glass,
or by immersing thtD In solution
of 1 pound of air-slaked lime to
gallons of water. They may be
stored in these .solutions, in tin can
dy pails, labeled, and put with other
fooils without farther attention. They
may be removed from the solution
as they are needed, and fresh eggs
may be added at any time.

While he received temporary help (II

ruin from the king of Assyrls, ftr he
became a vassal and was summoned
to Damascus to pay homage to that
king, ss appears from the account II
Kings 16:7-9. and also from the Assy

Other enemies also attacked him
KdomttSS from the southeast carried
away captives, and the Philistines
from the southwest Invaded the cities
of the low plains, south of Judah. and
took possession of them (vv. 17-111) and
the army of the Assyrian, which ASSS
led to rob and profane the temple and
Its treasures In order to buy them off
(r. 22-24), completed the ruin of his
nation. Ahaz was forced to pay a
heavy tribute to the Assyrian king
(v. 21). and got no help for his out
lay. He put his trust In sn arm of
flesh Instead of in the mighty arm of
Ood, which brought upon MM the
curse that always comes to those who
trust In man (Jer. I7:.V 6). There Is
