FOOLISH PREJUDICE.
How Some People Allow a Word,
Against Which They Have a
Prejudice, To Stand in the Way
OF Their own Weli-Reing.

The old lady who would not allow her son to
have fiddle, but was willing he should have
violin, is fair example of the foolish prejudice
which very many people have against certain
words Many persons might refuse to take
Chloride of Sodium, but would use salt, which
is the same thing. Now it is this class of people
who usually have a deep prejudice against the
words alcohol or whiskey They know that
somebody has abused the use of these articles
and hence they denounce them altogether, In
spite of the fact that the best scientists and the
leading physicians OF the present day advocate
and use them constantly.
Prof. Austin Flint, of Bellevue New York;
College, says; The judicious use of alcoholic
stimulsnts is one OF the striking characteristics
of progress in the practice of medicine during
the last half century"
Prof Joseph Parrish, the distinguished
author, says: I'VE know tina. alcohol will steady
the heart. slow the pulse, warm the skin, calm
excitement. and we ought to use it.'
Prof NJ g. Greenleai, the well author
says "An intelligent comprehension of the
action OF alcohol and whiskey will have a
greater influence in promoting temperance
than adhesion to dogma"
Such high scientific authorities show thst
pure whiskey should be used as household
remedy. No father or mother need hesitate for
q moment to administer Duffy's Pure Malt
Whiskey to the children, and it is simply
bigotry TO allow the word whiskey, which is
the name of this medicine, to stand in the way
of the wonderful benefits to be derived from its
use. II should be remembered, however, that
these effects are only 10 be secured by the use
of pure medicinal whiskey like Duify's, and
care should be taken to use no other.

An Iowa Nan Married In the Ancient
Hebrew Way.

MILWAUKEE, March 12.-The tenn.
pie Anshe Jacob was crowded to sui.
location Sunday evening, upon the
occasion Of the mar riage Of Miss Fan
ME Rosenberg of this city and Meyer
Bank of Cresco, Ia. More than ortli
nary interest wus attached to the
event from the fact that the unique
service known as the ancient ortho
dox Hebrew ritual was employed lol
the first time in this city for many
years. The wedding was followed
by q dance at Liederkranz hall.
One Of the peculiarities of the cere-
many was that the groom was obliged
to express his views of married life.
Another was that the bride had to
walk around the groom seven times.
The attendants and parents stood
about with candles, and the groom
and bride were served with wine, the
groom afterwards trampling the glass
under his feet to indicate that joy
and pleasure were easily shattered,
while only wisdom and righteous
ness were everlasting.
