That alcohol has an aflinity for protoplasm, the “physical basis ol life” itself, and that this is the reason for the widely varied injuries that it may ir Hict oft the body, is asserted by Dr Henry Smith Williams, in a Bents of articles contributed to Me Clure’s Magazine (New York). In ♦he first, entitled “Alcohol and the Individual,” Dr Williams shows that the tissues of the brain, tin- nerves, the lu-sirt and bhod-vessels, the stomach and intestinal tract, the lymphatic system, the kidneys, and the liver,may each and all become diseased by Lhe habitm 1 drinking of even email «piantities of alcohol. He notes also that these const<|uences are not confined to the drinker, but «■* are paused on to his descendants of succtssive generations. All this, Dr Williams tells us, may lie compared for the moral delinquencies of at least half of the convicts in our prison^ and of not lees than four-fifths of the in mates of our jails and workhouses. PENILE SCHOOL NOTES. Penile. Dec. 12 Special:—Penile school is progressing very nicely with Prof. B< (linger as principal. 1 would suggest to him, however, that he make out aud publish in The Press and Standard each month an Honor Koll. It would make the student strive to do his or her best and would thus be beneficial to the school. Another thing I would sug gest is the use of report cards. Parents have a right to know what their children are doing, and teach ers of all schools should make out iteport cards, whether they are teach ing town or county schools. I do I not *»ejiii one school any more than (another, and tbil is hot meant for any iodiyidual. Our money goel out t6 educate our children, and We think it nothing but right for every thing to be done for their advance ment possible. Patron* are not doing their full duty iu all schools. How many fathers and mothers go to the school to see what their children are doing, and to know whether they are com fortable or not? How many haul them wood for their stoves? How many seats and desks in your schoo 1 room? To sit in school with cold feet will undermine the health of anv 0 child, md even if there is wood round that the Tioys can pick up, the time they take in getting wood should be put to their books.

So alcohol, circulating m borne in mind that the conclusions the blood, tends to attack whatever just presented as to*the causal rela- organ or tissue may be weakest and tion of alcohol to the production ot roost susceptible. Dr Williams each of these abnormal elements of agrees with those who tend to class society are as far removed as possible alcohol as a poison, and discards “the pernicious theory” that it “gives any persistent increase of muscular power. In its action on the brain, he goes on to say, alcohol is an inhibitor and disturber of mental activity, not a promoter of it. This he regards as definitely proven by th? experiments of the chief German investigators. Its effect is cnnm’a ive, so that the drinker of a single bottle of wiie daily “is in reality never actually sober.' M ine causes a loss of at least ten per cent, in working-effici ency. It is notouly ilsetl a |x>i8ou, but aids the aeliou of other poisons, such as those of coutagion. Alienists both here and in Europe, Dr. Williams says, agree that alcohol is a most potent cause of insanity. Statistics show also that it is a chief cause (f crime and of pauperism. These disastrous effects on the com munity he sums up thus:, “At least one-third of all the recog nised pauperism iu the most highly civilised communities of Christen dom results from bodily and mental inefficiency doe to alcoholic indnl- jpnee. A similar correspondence of testimony shows, as we have seen, that the same cause is responsible for the mental overthrow of folly one fourth of nil the hufortnnates who are sent to asylum for the iosant; for the ssisfortmms of two fifths of chikirso; and from mere sentimental estimates or pessi fistic guesses. They are induc tions based on careful surveys of evi dence. ...... “For every individual that dies prematurely of a disease directly due to alcohol, there are scores of individ uals that suffer to a lesser degree from maladies which are wholly or in [mrt of the same origin but which are not directly fatal.
