C TANIC" .JONES VICE IS CAUSE OF INEBRIETI One of Effects of Excessive Use 0 Alcohol Is Loss of Self-Control Analogcus to Insanity. In an article on "lnebriety," put lished in the Outlook, the writer ha this to say: "Inebriety, though a disease. ha been produced by vice and leads t crime. "The appetites and passions shoul be under the control of the will, an so guided and directed by the reaso as to promote physical, mental an moral health. When they are not th1 under the control of the will and az not thus guided by the reason, the r sult is intemperance. There may 1 an intemperate eating, as well as a intemperate drinking; an intemperal use of coffee, as well as an intezppe ate use of beer or wine. Such yiel ing to the appetites, such allowing them to escape from the control the will and the -reason, Is a vic Gluttony t8 as truly a yice as drun enness, though uot a vIce which pr duoes anything like as seriously Inj rious results either to the individu or to society. Gluttony is a sin ax the glutton is a sinner. He is n to pity himself as a victim, but to co demn himself as a sinner. This sel condemnation is the first step towa. reform. -So drunkenness is a sin ax the drunkard is a sinner. He al is not to pity himself as a victim, bl to condemn himself as a sinner. Tb self-condemnnation in his case, as : the case of the glutton, is the fir step, and an indispensable ste toward real reform. "But while intemperance in all I forms is a sin, the disease which produces is not a sin. Gluttony mg produce dyspepsia; dyspepsia is not sin, though it may be a result of si Excessive drinking of tea may, al often does, produce serious nervo1 disease; nirvous disease is not a si though it may be a result of sin. E cessive drinking of alcohol produo a disease known as inebriety; th disease is not a sin, although it is g ways a result of sin. One -of the 4 fects of this disease is a loss of se, control. He who is afflicted with th in its most serious form is as unab to control his appetites as a man i flicted with locomotor ataxia is control his muscles. To put a mi afflicted with this disease in jail un1 he has recovered from the immedia intoxication, and then send him o1 again into temptations which he powerless to resist, is inexcusab folly. If a man has brought insani upon himself by vice, we do not pu ish the insanity. We set ourselves cure it. Inebriety is, in this respe< analogous to insanity. It is not be punished; it is to be cured. Tb is none the less true because inebi ety is almost always, as insanity frequently, the result of vice. Sociel should distinguish between thei three-vice, disease, crime-which often confounds. The remedy for ti vice of intemperance is largely mor; and intellectual, or, in the broad sera of the term, character building. TI remedy for the disease which tha vice produces is partly moral and par ly physical. For the crimes into whic the vice often leads the intemperal person, society must, in self-proe tion, provide some form of punis: ment. S"But, in our judgment. punishmen whether for the vice which produc< the disease or for the crime whic follows, should always be reformator; not vindictive, in its character. TIl distinction between sin and disease not easy to draw. Jesus Christ habi ually treated sin as a disease whic -he had come to cure. When he we condemned for associating with pul licans and sinners, he replied thi they which were whole nieeded not physician, but they which were sic) It has been well said that, if drunke ness produces poverty, it is equall true that poverty produces drunke ness. How far the boy who ha grown up in a family where there no control of the appetites, who ha inherited from the father and mothe a diseased appetite, who lives in a atmosphere which intensifies the cra ing for stimulants, whose inadequat or improper food further intensiie that craving-how far he is a guilt person to be punished, how far a di. eased person to be cured, is a quel tion to which no definite and final ar swer can be given. "What is true of drunkenness true of other sins. They are part!: the result of deliberate, intentiona violation of law. They are partly th result of ignorance, ill-breeding, bai inheritance. and almost irresistible sc cial forces. Society has tried fo many years the experiment of curia sin by punishing it. It is high time that society tried the experiment c curing crime by removing the cause; which produce it and by treating thi criminal as a diseased or insane per son, to be sent to a hospital for reme dial measures. "We can put our whole philosoph: on this subject in a sentence, thus: I should be the object of society, no to fit the punishment to the offense but to the offender. Or, in anothe: sentence, thus: The object of all pun ishment should be curative, not puni tive; its object should be to punisi crime only that it may cure crime first in the individual, next in society "There is no offense to which thi: principle can be and should be mor< immediately and constantly appliec than to the offense of drunkenness. HOME-MADE PHILOSOPHY Fun is not all foolishness. We need unshine in our hearts as well as sun shine in oir homes. '1.world is a big book. School! .an ocly give us the key to solving many of its problems. Men who ask God for a boost should learn to boost themselves with the boosting forces already here. It takes so long to gain recognition from the world that thousands of the Impatient become discouraged. So many women delight in a sis ter's fall, and I fear that sometimes they feel themselves slipping too. Whitewashing dirty walls only cov ers up the dirt. It's just so with white washed politicians and statesmen. The man who is mean to boys should never run for office. The boys yril2 IIUTORM For Infants and Children.

Fame confided, "This my task: eI am twining wreaths of laurel, I am weaving wreaths of bay S On the path where Glory leads men are doing mighty deeds eAnd the guerdons of their striving I award to them each day.

'r S"No, 'tis I," continued Fame, "I who carve in stone the name; e I who wreath in gold the story of the daring and the deed; It is I who am allied with ambition and with pride - It is I whofll the flagon to the man who holds the lead." S"It Is you?" asked Death and Time. "And for you t.hey fall or climb? And for them you work the laurel and the bay in rounded weaves?"

It is most unfortunate tht this basic fact is not kept more prom inent before the American people whose anti-trust sentiment is only the expression of a revolt against high costs. "It is relief from the high cost 0 living that the country demands, and the agitation should be, first of all, for tariff reduction. With that accom plished, the trust question will take care of itself. Without it, neither prices nor monopoly will be con trolled. It may be doubted chai cheaper tobacco will result from the disintegration of the tobacco trust but It is certain that It would follow the lowering of tobacco duties. It i? unlikely that steel products will fal much In price if the steel trust is die solved, but no one will question tha they would be materially lower if thA duties on imported steel were rie duced. Indeed, the proposition Is si obvious that it admits of no argu ment. Lower the tariff and Inflatloi will cease. Monopoly extortion, ei cessive capitalization and high cost will disappear. Competition of th proper sort-that of America with th whole world-will be restored and th natural development of our superic resources and of our commercli ability will follow."-New York Timei An esteemed contemporary start out to prove that Taft Is a greater fo of the trusts than Roosevelt.

But do not the world and YOt fellow travelers take on a differer aspect because you are not maroone in some corner of the universe, bt travel in the midst of stars and sun These thoughts may not appeal t you.

It helped displace the thought of Go - as the artincer. It gave man real dig- ; - nity and close relations In a larpr n universe. How little and cramped the ' ancient maps of the earth In space! t In fact, space, as we think of It, had no real existence for the ancients. ' They did not get outside the closed box in which sun, planets and stars e went circling round the earth. In all s good faith many of them believed that - Jerusalem was the physical center of Sall things. In place of that conceit Lt of our human importance, we have it gained the thought of God as the soul S of the universe and made the old It doctrine of his presence everywhere . something more than a cold dogma. ke If we can no longer localize the New ir Jerusalem (there was a man.
