How Men BECOME Drunkards.

AAON N1cN f1cCOuI0 DTUnA HxU0. .-@
William Hargreaves, N. D., of New
York. in the Voice, says:
Though alcohol leads to excess, yet
men do not become drunkards at once;
it sometimes requires the habit of years
to produce habitual drunkenness. Every
mother who has dosed her child with
mild opiates and auodynes, knows that
a few drops had the desired effect Of
lulling TIE child to sleep when first
given.
She also knows that after the use for
a week or two the dose had to be in.
creased, and if still longer continued d
teaspoonful or more had to be givento
obtain the effects that were produced
first by a few drops. This law of in
crease governs all narcotics. Alcohol
demands an increase of dose. The man
who may be exhilerated by a glass Of
wine or beera at first, if he continues the
habit, may require twice or thrice as
much to produce the exhilaration or
narcotization desired.
Hence the quantity of strength must
be increased to produce the excitement
desired by the blunted or narcotized
nervous system. The appetite for alec.
hol being formed, light wines and beer
in large quantities are required to arouse
the blun:ed and narcotized nervous sys-
tenn. The blunted nervous system
demands q large glass of brandy and
whisky, and after a time a pint of whis-
ky may be required to produce the
effects that were once produced by a
glass of beer or wine.
This is the process by which men and
women arc narcotized, until they become
habitual and occasional drunkards.
Hence malt liquors and light wines create
the appetite for distilled spirits. Men,
and women too, drink in order to feel
a certain degree of alcoholic narcotiza-
ton. AS moderation oils the hinges of
the door of excess, a glass of wine whets
the appetite for the stronger liquor.
True, beer does not contain so large a
percent. of alcohol as whisky or brandy;
but the quantity will not satisfy; and
what malt liquors lack in strength, is
made up by drinking o larger quantity,
to produce the feeling desired.
As far as the alcohol is concerned,
two ounces of beer will not do as much
injury as two ounces of brandy or whisky;
but the same quantity will not SUFFICE.
A glass Of beer that will satisfy today
may fail to produce that effect tomorrow,
and much more will be required. Then,
again, while a glass of spirits would
satisfy the drinker, he will take a quart
of ale or beer, and will thus consume
more alcohol than if he had taken a
glass of whisky or brandy; for the
inebriating effects are sought.

TEMPERANCE DEPARTMENT.
Three Chains

There are three chains which bind men
in captivity; custom, habit and appe-
tite. These different forces play into
each others hands. First custom comes
with its in%sinuaticns and solicitations;
then follows habit with its bands and
letters; and finally comes appetite withits
fiery energies, sweeping the soul as with
a cyclone, and hurrying a man to ire
trievable ruin. The time to snap these
chains is at the beginning. A three-fold
cord is not easily broken. Let those
who hate bondage remember that tyran-
ny in its beginning is insidious and un-
suspected, and that those who fail to re-
sist the beginning of evil will find them.
selves powerless to war against it when
it is completely developed and fully
grown.
