Support of Moderate Drinking.

EDITOR SATURDAY PRESS Permit me to reply to
one two remarks made by way of comment on
my letter which you kindly inserted.
Dr. Crosby's statement l fully endorse, and add
the highest style OF reasoning is to follow the
example and prccepts of Jesus Christ. speak to
Christians. The argument, that because intern
perance has grown out of moderation, therefore
the latter is bad consider illogical and the prin-
binary course of life. All evil has grown out of
that which is good evil is the abuse of good.
Hernts endeayored in vain to carry out
the idea, for the worlds good, so they said, as we
are commanded or enioned to be moderate in all
things. To appear moderate in drinking as in
amy other enjoyment and taking of food is evil.
AS to the physical benefits derived in the moder-
ate use of acoholin the shape of good wine and
perfectly brewed malt ale, l am supported by u
host of the highest medical and chemical author
ity. Yours dc., The BUSH Convert.

A Few Authorities Against Moderate
Drinking,

The testimony of DIR. Bonj Ward Richardson,
one of the best medical authorities this subject,
is rs follows.
"a man may be considered by his friends and
neighbors rs well ms by himself to be sober and
temperate man. He may say quite truthfully that
lle never tipsy in tho whole course of his life
and yet it is quite possible that such man may die
of disease caused by the alcohol he has taken and
by no other cause whatever. This liz one of the
most dreadful evils Of alcohol that it kills nsidi-
upsly, 1t it were doing no HARM or al If 1t was
doing good, while it is destroying life"
These are the statements of the british Medical
any sense be considered MS necessity for the
maintenance of healthy life" THAT It is not q
food in any true and practical sense OF that term"
"'lhat labor of the severest kind, mental and
bodily can be carried ON without it, and that the
steadiest and best work liz best done without it,"
mitted by everyone that alcohol Is the canse OF
| more than half the insanity we have"
Sir Henry Thompson testihes Ms follows Il
| have long had the conviction that there IL no
greater cause of evil, moral aud physical III this
country (Englandl than the us of alcoholic beyer-
| ages. | do not mean by this hGt extreme indui-
| Gonce which produces drunkenness. The habitual
use of fermented liquors 10 "a extent far short of
what is necessary 10 produce that condition and
such as is quite common IN ell ranks OF society
Injuries the body and diminishes the mental power
| 10 an extent which think few people arc aware
| Off
An article in recent number Of the Scientific
| 1asTiedn headed DR. Andrew Clark on alcohol
| fully substanttates the above IN all particulars
and is worthy the attention OF all doubtful minds
! ON this subject.
Such testimony as the above ought 10 be conclu-
siye even as against the IstsoAsf experience of thc
bush convert" which We gave last week.
