' Alrbhol and Morals.
Dr. T. L. Wright, ia considering
the lalluence of a)cqhe>l on the moral
coastitutlon of.mao. reetuirks: “The
influence of alcohol on -morels Is
immediate. It Is perceptible t<>6b-
servation quickly after alcohol Is
taken into the system; but It varies
greatly, both In kind and Intensity,
with the stage of drlftking. In
.general terms it may be- said that
no instanee has been recorded where
the Influence of alcohol upon a good
man. when carried to itg fall extent,
has failed to taint his moral natur*.
Nor has any Instance ever been
known of a.alcoholic so base, bestial
and Inhuman*. 4hat alcohol c6ufd not

fact. true, as far as the world’s ex
perience extends that the depth of
depravity Into which alcohol may
plunge the human soul has never
yet been sounded. In Its position

hol stands ‘proudly eminent.' Few
•Nln*s are so bad as to have no good
In them;'but. aside from certain
properties available In theraoentlcs.
"Icohol seems In Us Impressions on
the human Organism to be singularly
bad. . In all Its long and drearv his
tory It has never known for piety, or
svmnathy. or love to his family, or
kindness to his fellowmen.
“Alcohol deadens the conscience
of snvone who partakes of it. let Ids
