I»K MARCY.
Henry U. Marcy, M. D., LL D.,
of Boston, Mass, ex-prusident of
the American Medical Associa
tion, delivered an address on
“The Temperance Movement in
the South from a Scientific Point
of View.” He asserted that the
rapid change of public sentiment
favorable to most radical meas
ures for the suppression aud con
trol of the sale of alcohol as a
beverage was not a mere senti
ment or theory, but was a deep
feeling of alarm and recognition
of the ifluence of alcohol in in
tensifying and increasing the
social perils of home life and
good government.
Medieal and hygienic study,
based on statistics and mortality
tables, indicate that alcohol as a
beverage is a most active cause
of denegeratioo and disease
among t^e colored and illiterate
class of the Sooth.
The unrestrained ose of alco
hol is literal^ anarchy in which
life and property are in constant
peril. All the loaders recognise
that the alcoholic problem has a
sanitary side of the most absorb
ing interest, and this most be
recognised end become n part of
the practical life of every cozn-
mnnity.
The nnsettled conditions of
borne life, the prejudices and
conflicts of races inseparable to
the evolution of a new South,
most have no oomplications from
aloohol and foioes that are de
structive to all healthy growth.
Industrial progress and devel
opment of the vsst resources of
the South is obstructed and re
tarded nulesa alcohol and its use
as a beverage can be controlled
or suppressed.

Dr Howard K .•Kelly, of Balti
more, Md , professor of diseases
of womeu in the Johns Hopkins
University, declared that “The
Alcoholic Problem in Every Day
Life” is becoming more and
more apparent in the diseases,
degenerations and injuries which
are traceable directly to the use
of alcohol.
Every thoughtful physician
must recognize that alcohol as a
beverage and even at a medicine
has an unknown danger that may
come into prominence in a great
variety of diseases and condi
tions.
Every day’s experience brings
out this fact, ^ and while we are
not always able, to trace the eon-

spirits is a
centre for the promulgation of
this disease, and is doomed to
extinction from a larger and
more exact knowledge.
3. Science shows that alcohol
as an antesthetic has a value in
medicine, but its real power is
that of a fuel, light and force
producer.
4. That cheap alcohols can bo
made from a great variety of
sources that will be active com
petitors to electricity, gasoline
and steam.
5. What is needed is the in
vention of boilers, lamps and
means to utilize and make prac
tical this great power of alcohol.
6. Every distillery and brew
ery in the country will be requir
ed for the manufacture and dis
tribution of eheap alcohols when
the inventor supplies the missing
links.
7. Alcohol will become one of
the great rivals of electricity to
do the world’s work, because it
can be made from the waste and
by-|hrodtiets in every section of
the country.
8. Bier, spirits end all other
forms of aloohol as beverages
will dissppcsr when the inventor
■bows os how to harness and uti
lise this new latent power of civi
lisation.
9. The future of the alcoholic
problem will be followed by a
great revolution in commercial
industry, snd will be a question
of sanitary science sad inveatoc’s

DB PARKS.
Dr W.B. Parks, of Atlanta,
(is, editor of the Altruist, in t
paper on The Effect of Alcohol
and Temperament as It Relates
to Race and Nationality,” said
that many of the characteristic!
of the effects of alcohol on the
bodj were governed by the race
and nationality.
To the Englishman alcohol
bronght repose and comfort: to
the Frenchman it created excite
ment and interest; to the Ger
man it was anaesthetic; to the
Italian it was courage and force;
to the Irishman it was sense en
joyment ; to the Am* rican, alco
hol simply gives a feeling of pow
er and capacity without any pro
nounced types. The negro is not
an inebriate as a race. He
drinks to quiet excitement and
to give relief. The Jew is not a
race drinker. Alcohol to him is
simply a sedative. The Russian
takes aloohol in the place of food,
and his dunking is a very mark
ed characteristic.

Pills hive proven of the greatest
benefit to me and I gladly recom
mend them. I had a kidney and
bladder weakness, having to
arise often during the night on
account of the frequent passages
of the kidney secretions. I also
was afflicted with dnll, nagging
backaches and mornings on aris
ing would be very weak and
lame When 1 learned about
Doan’s Kidney Pills, I obtained
a box from the Walterboro
Drug Co. They soon relieved the
backache and rid me of the an
noying kidney weakness.”
