All Forms of Insanity In Alcohol.

Tho close relation of alcoholism to
insanity is shown by the statement OF
pecialist-Krafft Ebing-that all
forms of insanity, from melancholia to
imbecility, are found in alcoholism. 1t
is artificial. 1t begins with a slight
maniacal excitation, thoughts flow lu-
cidly, the quiet become loquacious,
the modest bold. There is need of mus
cular action. The emotions are mani
fest in laughing, singing and dancing.
Now the nsthetical ideas and moral
impulses are lost control of, the weak
side of the individual is manifested, his
secrets are revealed. He is dogmatic.
cruel, cynical dangerous. He insists
that he is not drunk, just as the insane
insists on his sanity. Then his mind
becomes weak, his consciousness dim,
illusions arise. He stammers, staggers,
and. like a paralytic, his movements
are uncertain.
The principal character of these men
tai disturbances consists in a moral and
intellectual weakness. Ideas become
lax as to honor and decorum. There is
a disregard of the duties OF family and
citizenship. Irritability is a concomi,
tant. The slightest thing causes sus.
picion and anger which are uncontrolla-
BILE. There is weakness of will tt
carry out good resolutions, and a con.
seriousness of this leads some to request

SLAVES or ALCOHOL
The Only Sure Cure For Them Is to Make

The Only Sure Cure For Them Is to Make
the Poison Unattainable.
The most common of all forms Of in
toxication is IF course that due TO al
cohol, ard the question of its treatment
is most formidable. Alcohol affects the
system In sush variety Of ways, per-
verts the functions of so many organs.
invades and corrodes so many tissues,
that the physician is often puzzled as
to what part of the organism needs
treatment first. The poison produces
chronic inflammation of the stomach:
it gradually inf1ames the liver, and in
fact strangles it like an iron hand:- it
INJURIES the heart: it affects the kidneys !;
| it does harm to the lungs: it produces
neurasthenia. delirium tremens. insan-
ity and epilepsy by Its influence upon

dltion is that of the vice or disease it.
self. He may treat and relieve to GER
tain extent the disorders Just enumer-
ated. but the habit offers terrible diff
culties to overcome in order to conquer
it. How shall the habit be cured: For
many decades this complex question
has commanded the attention not o1ly
of physicians, but of laymen, lawyers,
clergymen and statesmen. Either the
desire for alcohol must be got rid of or
| the alcohol itself must be made unat-
! tainable.
To accomplish the first, appeal has
been made to the enfeebled will of the
victim by lectures, pledges. hypnotic
| suggestions, religious influences and the
| like, often with considerable success.
And drugs, too. have been lauded by
! physicians and multitude of secret
nostrums by quacks to accomplish the
, same purpose, also with considerable
success, though not SO much through
the merit of being an antidote to the
, impulse for drink as by virtue of the
support by faith or suggestion given to
! the weak will of the victim.
On the other hand, to make alcohol
unattainable, or at least to put 1t as far
as possible out of reach the law has
been invoked to regulate liquor selling
, in general, to prevent its sale to drunk
, ards, to imprison habitues or to commit
inebriates to special institutions for a
Gel tam period of time.
! While all of these means have, in in
dividual instances, been productive OF
successful results, the facts remain that
no drug has been found that is always
equal to destroying the morbid craving,
! and the laws are inadequate as regards
the regulation of the liquor traffic and
the isolation of the drunkard from the
contiguity of his ruling demon.

Shepherds, Look to Your Elocks.

There is need of noble hearted. self
sacrificing men and women who are
burning with Il desire to uplift humanity
and save some at least from dishonored
graves. who will throw themselves into
the gap and exert every God given pow
er to restrain the drink demon and stop
him in his murderous career. The first
to enter the lists are those to whom God
has given the care of souls. who are
taken from home and family that they
may the better devote themselves to the
saving of the weaker brethren. Blessed
is the ministry of the many good
shepherds who have not been content to
sit idly within the sanctuary rail. but
who, by practice and precept. have
preached from the housetops and have
gone out after the fallen drunkard who
have boldly attacked the rayening
wolves who have made desolate the
homes of the chosen people. 1t would
| be strange in the face of the tremendous
proportions the drink evil has assumed,
numbering it's victims by 70, 600 year
| ", that any pastor of souls could go to
| his reward with record OF never hav-
| ing spoken one strong word against in
temperance or never having antago-
nized the traffic, whose business is to feed
| and, in satisfying, to increase the crav-
| ings for alcohol. United with those
| whose lives are devoted to the saving of
souls are the noble hearted men who
have enlisted under the white banner of
| total abstinence; who. whether in So
| cieties or out of societies. by personal
example, refusing the profferod glass, or
| bv public word, with avowed profession
of the blessings of temperate lives. have
| done their share in the limited circles
| in which their lines have been cast to
lessen evil. Possibly. too. the time may

whom the duty has been confided fail
