1t Is Slowly But Surely Being Exploded
by Science, Experience and Observa-
ton.
For considerable time the doctors
have been divided into conflicting
camps over the value of alcohol as 9
curative agent. Many of them have
positively refused for years to permit
its use under any circumstances, the
veteran, DIR. Davis. being of this
number. Others, while opposing its
social use and recognizing the dam
gers that attend excess, in its con-
sumption. have not claimed that it did
not possess some merits in certain COM
plications. The number of the latter
has been growing smaller by degrees.
A conviction is still abroad in the med
ical fraternity that the less alcoholic
concoctions of any sort used the bet
ter, and the indications are that the
time is not far distant when it will be
excluded from the prescription cards.
When that time is reached the pub
lie who use it, as is generally believed
for medicinal effect. will learn that
science has been slowly but certainly
exploding another ancient delusion.
The belief is all but universal that
whisky, beer, wines and the entire cat
alogue of alcoholic drinks 'impart ad-
ditional heat, therefore life, or resist.
ance to cold. 1t is claimed now that
while alcoholic drinks DO give heat it
is treacherou5 and mischievous, a
temporary and wasteful one. 1t heats
the surface of the body. 1t expands
blood vessels. But it chills the center
OF life-thc heart-and so increases for
a time the pace of that organ as seri-
ously to weaken it by inevitable re-
action.
The observation of travellers con-
firms the experiments of science.
1t is we'll known that soldiers who
go inro battle upon alcoholic stimulant
may make brilliant onset, but that
they have less endurance than those
who prefer simple food with only
coffee as a warming drink. In case of
INJURY iSHtil4HS ouI SCIJ ilIu IOuS
convalescence those who have not been
weakened by alcohol have a much
larger chance of recovery. In the
Arctic explorations it is well
established that alcoholic liquors, in
stead of increasing the strength of the
explorers. diminished it. One officer
has recorded that or cer-
tain night when all were exhausted
with hunger and threatened with death
by freezing those who drank copiously
before lying down to sleep were found
dead in the morning, those who partook
slightly were dangerously chilled,
while those who had not touched the
stimulant woke up warm and well as
could be expected.
The most vicious prolonger Of the
delusion about alcohol is the social
habit of not only drinking often but
paying for others drink. Men who
have moral courage enough to defy
this vulgar and injurious custom have
been greater benefactors than they
may have realized. The delusion about
the vivifying power of alcohol will die
slowly. But it will die, and the sooner
the better. Chicago Times.

How He Takes Him.

Tom Brown was an ignorant, queer
boy. and was constantly doing things
of an unaccountable nature. One day
a lady, for whom he had been doing
some work, said to him:
Tom, you're an odd genius"
"Yes'm," replied Tom, not knowing
exactly what she meant.
Il don't quite comprehend you"
What. mum?"
II mean l don't know how to take
you"
dad does"
"How?"
"He takes me by tho nape of the
neck and shakes me like l was rat"

How does COW hold up her milk?
A COW is able to hold up her milk by
a muscular action, which SO far as we
know, cannot be controlled by man.
1t the anatomists knew, and perhaps
they do, exactly where the nerve lies
which CONTROLS the muscles brought
into play, it might, perhaps be safely
severed; but it is very doubtful if this
would not do more harm than good.
How to get the milk, is really moral
problem, requiring patience on the
part of the mixer, and successful d.
version of the cow. If when you have
drawn all the milk you can, YOU
surprise her with pailful of carrots
or some unexpected feed, she will gen.
orally forget all about holding up her
milk. She must be cajoled and not
disciplined; we should strive to make
it pleasure to the cow to be MIXED.
-American a griculturist.

A SPADE FLUSH.

The richest man in Boston is sup
posed to be Mr.. Fred L. Ames. He
lives in the finest house in the city, on
Commonwealth avenue, entertains
! gorgeously and is regarded as an aris-
tocrat of the aristocrats. Nevertheless.
his grandfather, old Olivier Ames, the
frst, used to peddle shovels of his
own hand-work in this town. The
shovel business grew, the utensils
being well made, and was further
developed by the two sons, Cakes and
Olivier the second. The profits were
largely invested in the Pacific Railway.
which, Notwithstanding certain aw-
ful slump in its stock, proved a gold
mine. Oakes Ames' son Oliver is now
the Governor of. Massachusetts and is
worth at least s5,000,0UO. Of real
estate in Boston his holding are enor-
nous. But his wealth is as nothing
compared with that of his cousin Fred
H., son of Olivier the second. who has
not less than s20,OO0,O0O of his own.
And the shovel business, accompanied
by the manufacture of other instru-
nents agricultural, still goes on, en-.
larged to gigantic scale.-Ez.
