Scientific men who have ma beer drinking a careful study eo firm these statements. Dr. T. I'rot lies, of Hartford, Ct., superi tendent of a sanitarium for inch ates, than whom there is no high authority on alcohol in this cou try, says: "In appearance the hi drinker may be the picture health, hut in reality he is most i capable of resisting disease, slight injury, severe cold, or sho to the lwidy or mind will coniiim ly provoke acute disease, endi fatally. Compared with inehriat who use different forms of alcol he is more incurable, and mi generally diseased. The eonsta use of beer every day gives the sj tern no time for recuperation, b steadily lowers the vital forces." The most dangerous class tramps and rullians in our lar cities are beer drinkers. One h; of all the suicides in this count are beer drinkers. The largest pi ccntage of diseases inherited children come from beer drinki parents.

Notice the distinction between food and a poison: A food is a si stance whose nature it is, when i sorbed into the blood to nouri the body without injurining whereas, a poison is any substar whose nature it is, when absorb into the blood, to injure health destroy life. 2. It is a double poison?narc* ic and irritant. It first dcceiv< then ruins. A man gets up in t morning and says he feels, "goiv at the pit of his stomach, th a drink of whiskey and says feels better rigbt off. Is he a better? No sir! Then wl makes him feel better?

You cannot go accordi to your sensation in the use of a narcotic drug, whether alcohol, ( caine or tobacco. The only s: thing to dt) is to depend on yo judgment, based on the nature the drug.

Just as it is not j the quantity of lead passing 'through a man's brain that kills the man, but the lead, and as it is; . : not the size of the bullet going through a man's heart but the buljjg j let, so it is not the quantity of alcohol exclusively, but the nature of ? | it that kills. , " i Dr. Taylor then introduced his ? | experiment, which proved to l>e * \ highly instructive and entertaining 1,1 U? nnnlit.i.il 1 I II..

The analysis showed rs- 12 per cent, alcohol in this wine, ,ut or about two ounces of alcohol in one pint, and yet it is commonly! of atfiirmcd that a person often drinks; ge a pint at a single meal. No man, nlf whether Cuhan or American, can vv drink 12 per cent, alcohol, with or r_ without food, without receiving in-1 by jury thereby.
