Georgia has law that IL a doctor is
once convicted of being drunk he can
not practice medicine any more in that
state.
In New York last year 1434 husbands
procured divorces from their wives on
the ground of drunkenness. During the
same year 2,432 wives procured divorces
from their husbands on the same
charge.
The Boston Traveller, in an article on
''Moderate Drinking" says: "We feel it
our duty to say distinctly that no agency
is so effectually battling the efforts to
save the young men of our land from
moral and physical death as is fashions
BILE drinking, assumed to be moderate.
Much has been claimed for whiskey as
a valuable agent to ward off disease in
many forms. Asked recently by repre-
sentative of the New York World as to
its value as preventative of the prevail
ing grip, DR.. George F. Shrady, an emf
nent medical authority, is reported as
saying: "Whiskey is never good to ward
off anything. Good food is the best
means by which to ward off disease. To
dose with whiskey is like adding shaw
ings to the fire. There is no physical,
mental, or moral excuse for mans
drinking whiskey as preventative OF
disease DR.. Shrady's emphatic and
timely testimony should be influential in
helping to dispel the popular but mis-
chievous whiskey delusion.

Hunt up half hundred forceful and in
cisve adjectives, suitable for description
of sublime and Inspiring scenery; then
take a trip to the Grand Canon of the Col
orado, and you will throw them aside as
being inadequate.
The worlds greatest wonder is the Grand
Canon of the Colorado river, in Arizona.
Yellowstone Park and Yosemite take sec
ond place; Niagara Falls is dwarfed; and
the Adirondacks seem like mere hills,
compared with the stupendous chasms
and heights of the Grand Canon.
This hitherto inaccessible region has
just been opened for tourists by stage line
from Flagstaff A. r., on the transcontI-
mental highway of the A. I. S. +. K. K.
The round trip can be made comfortably,
quickly, and at reasonable expense.
Nearest agent of Santa Fe route will

illustrated pamphlet is in preparation,
