ALCOHOL AS A MEDICINE.
1T Is Largely Used Through Force O
Habit-Some SuhsfftutaS

Habit-Some Substitutes.
The promiscuous plan of giving alco-
hollc stlmulants Is really, in a large de-
gree, the force of habit and has no foun-
datiOn in modern science or in good
practice. 1t has survived from those
days In which people took rum and ap-
pleJack to keep out the cold; to keep out
the heat; to help the appetite: t 0 take
the place of food: to wish healrh 70 a
friend; TO keep up the spirits: in fact to
do anything that any one who liked its
pleasant taste wished to imagine.
We do not mean by this to say that
alcohol is not available as a medicine.
We believe rs such it has a very i'm
pOrtant although a narrow sphere in the
hands of the skillful and conscientious
practitioner. 1t may also be of service
III other hands to meet sudden shock,
where nothing else is at hand. But what
We insist upon is that it is very rarely
useful for sudden illness or pain in the
hands of the public to a degree that
should give it preference over other
remedies. Take, for instance, this mat
ter of stimulation. 1t is as distinguished
an authority as Professor Lauder Brun-
ton, of London, who tried the following
experiment: He had a person who slipped
a cup Of hot water and afterward, at Il
proper interval, tried also the effect Of IL
tablespoonful of brandy. In each case
the sphygmOgraph was applied to the
pulse at the wrist. 1t wa found that
the hot waite. increased the wave and
rhythm Of the pulse and SO affected the
| In,Tr l,nat aG ,nr1ol, nc tho brandy Tho
reyiving effect Of a teacupful Of hot
water. with a teaspoOnful Of sugar and
six or eight drops of peppermint to give
flavor. is very perceptible. This is really
rnuch of the value OF catnip or other
herb teas.
a good prescription, either in case OF
%faintness or Of pain, Is ten drops OF
spirits Of camphor, ten drops of pare.
Soric, ten drops Of sweet spirits Of inter
and a half t~easpoonful of baking soda in
q tablespoonful Of warm water. Ginger
tea made by putting a half t~ea3poonful
Of ordinary powdered ginger in a halt

dependence on the liquor flask. We per

Total Abstinence Among the Ancients.

Total Abstinence Among the Ancients.
\ historian of European Morals
holds that the fundamental conceptions
Of right and wrong have not varied
nearly as much as the standard OF
morality prescribed by the ethics of the
times. Temperance has not always been
carried TO the consistent outcome of pro-
hibition, but its advantages over drunk
. enness have never been denied, and
Professor Jules Arnot in his work On
the Customs of the Celtic Drulds
demonstrates that the priests Of the
ancient Gauls prided themselves on the
| strictness of their abstinence from intox-
| icating beverages. The chiefs Of the
ancient Arabs, too, were distinguished
| for their sobriety long before the time
| of Mohammed, and the followers OF
Pythagoras practiced total abstinence at
a time when the temples OF Bacchus
were found all along the south shore of
! the Mediterranean.

Whittier Was q Foe of Rum.

The temperance cause, IN common
With every other work for God and hu-
manitv. has lost a noble and helpful
friend in Whittier. While the poet was
not able Oh account of his advancing
age and for other reasons to throw him
self into the struggle against liquor as
he did against slavery, yet he never
missed a favorable opportunity to attest
his hearty sympathy in temperance work
and his earnest wishes for Its Ultimate
success. Many were the sweet, tender
and cheering messages which went u
FROM the quiet home at Amesbury to
those in the heat of the battle with the
| cohorts of the rum traffic. One Of his
latest u~tterances was IA characteristicaily
tender message of coincidence to Miss
Willard on the death OF her mother.
While the temperance cause annot
claim Whittier as its w exclusively,
| Tor his worl: was as broad as humanity,
| vet every worker III that cause may find
| Il constant inspiration TO service III his
HYMNS and songs. many or which IN
their ringing protests against legaIlzetl
wrong and oppression seem quite as ap-
| plicable to the assault upon liquor as
urCn the system of human slavery.
| Surely 1t needs little or no transposition
to make many such lines as may be
fond III Voices of Freedom" appli-
cable TO the present conflict. Have we
lot a message III these words as well as
those to whom they were written forty
years ago:
Our fathers to their graves have gone.
Their strife is past-their triumph won;
But sterner trials wait the race
Which rises in their honored place
\ moral warfare with the crime
And folly Of an evil time.
So let il be. In Gods own might
We grid us for the coming fight,
AMI. strong in him whose cause Is ours
In conflict with unholy powers,
We grasp the weapons he has given
The light and truth and love Of heaven.

The Barred Head at Funerals.

The barred head at funerals is, for hy-
gienic reasons, becoming a custom OF
the past IN some localities. An aglta-
ton against it was started by Captain
George a. Raabe, a member of many
benevolent societies in San Francisco,
and as a result of his labors nearly
every society Of the kind on the Pacific
coast has adopted resolutions to the eff
feet hat the members shall keep their
hats on at the graves of their departed
comrades. Grand Army posts in Cali
fornia have followed suit. Societies in
Milwaukee are discussing the same
question. Health Commissioner Win
gate. of that city, recently made these
sensible remarks on the subject Of the
exactions of the modern funeral:
Death comes at a time very often in a
family when an ~overworked and nearly
broken down mother or sister or wife,
or perhaps a husband, is nearly if not
completely Frustrated, and whose health
is in a most precarious condition. Ply
sicians can testify, as no other class III
the community can, to the often serious
results of a funeral as it is conducted
nowadays. y delicate member of tho
family, who perhaps has not been out
of the house for weeks, worn down and
Frustrated by the care and grief Incl
dent to the loss Of a lear relative, is sub
| jected to a long. slow ride in a carriage
| on a cold, Indictment day. Custom has
had its way: the victim. following the
| CUSTOM. thinking it d duty, returns t.
her home, not TO go out again till she Is
followed over the same road to the last
resting place by perhaps others who fall
victims after her.
