Effect Of Alcohol on the Heart.

DR.. N. b. Richardson, OF London tno
noted physician, says he was recently
able to convey considerable amount
of conviction to an intelligent scholar
bv a simple experiment.. The scholar
was singing the praises OF the Ruddy
Bumper" and saying he could not get
through the day without it, when Dr.
Richardson said to him:
Will you be good enough to feel my
pulse as stand here?"
He did so. l said ''Count it care
fully! what does it say?'
Your pulse says sevcnty-four; L
then sat down in chair and asked MN
to count it again. He did SO, and SAID;
Your pulse has gone down to seventy
then laid down on the lounge ana
said: "Will you take it again?'
He replied: "Why, it is only sixty
four; what an extraordinary thing!.
1 then said: "When you lie down al
night that is the way nature gives your
heart rest. You know nothing about II,
but that beating organ is resting to thao
extent; and if you reckon it up it Is
great deal of rest, because in lying down
the heart is doing ten strokes less
minute Multiply that by sixty, and 1T
IS six hundred; multiply it by cight
hours, and within n fraction 1T Is hve
thousand strokes different; and as the
heart is throwing six ounces OF blood at
every stroke it makes a difference OF
thirty thousand ounces of lifting during
the night. When I lie down at night
without any alcohol, that is the rest my
heart gets. But when you take your
wine or grog, you do -2ot. allow that rest:
for the influence Of alcohol is>t0 increase
the number of strokes, and SSad or
getting this rest, you put oir<,@71ssaln alng
like fifteen thousand extra strokes, and
the result is you rise UP very seedy and
unfit for the next days work until you
have taken little more of the 'ruddy
bumper, which you say is the soul of
man below His friend acknowledged
that this was perfectly true. He began
to reckon up these figures, and found
what it meant, lifting up an ounce so
many thousand times, and the result
vas, he became total abstaincr, with
every benefit to his health, and, as he
admits, to his happiness. l would like
those who take stimulants to give them
rest, Just to take the opposite side of the
question into consideration, and see how
the two positions fit together. r.-NGttonaI

Opposed to Any and All Restrictions.

The irrcconcllable opposition of the
saloon keepers to every kind of subicc-
ton to law and regulation in the inter-
est of society is fully set forth in the an
nlal report of the Board of Trustees to
the convention of the State Saloon-keep-
ers' Association at Quincy. This adj
dress not only recounts the struggle
against the Harper law, but conveys an
intimation of the purpose to break down
all other legislation designed to keep
the liquor traffic within the bounds of
public decency. Resentment is eX-
pressed toward the law prohibiting. the
sale of liquors to minors, as well as to
Local Option and the License laws. 1t
is clear that the saloon-kcepers are not
disposed to tolerate any interference
which places their traffic upon a differ
ent footing from that of any other busi-
ness. 1t is well that the public has
authoritive notice of all this. for it
shows that the saloon-kecpers are utter
lv unreasonable and propose to resist
every lawful means that may be taken
to compel them to contribute their
share of revenue for the support OF local
government or to restrain the eX-
cessess and evils necessarily incident to
the liquor traffic.
l.
reasoning hostility of aloon-keepers to
all restrictive legislation which deserves
special attention from the public. This
policy is sufficient notice that the as
sent of those engaged in the liquor
traffic can never be secured to any meas
ure necessary for the protection of So
ciety against the abuses OF the traffic.
They do not protest against the
Harper law because they believe 1t
to be oppressive, but because 1T is
in the nature of a regulation. They
are not willing that small suburban
town, where women and children are
deprived through the day of the pro-
lection of the male members of the
family, shall be permitted to prohibit
the public sale of liquor. They fret
even under the law which is intended to
save the youth of both sexes from be-
ing debauched and ruined merely in
order to put few nickels into the sa
loon keepers till When they avow
all this their outcry against the License
law loses its force, and the only trouble
is that the position they take is almost
justification for the extreme hostility
and attempt at determination urged by
the Prohibitionists. Chicago Tribune.
