20 America There are fewer drunkards In
France than in the countries OF North

Italy or in Spain. This Is the reason why
temperance societies are unknown In those

duced by the alcohol. This Is what makes
the charm. sometimes the want. and al

the man whose organism Is In regular or

when he is not hungry or TO drink without

effect Of stimulants. which increase for
the moment his faculties Of enjoyment
but. which. later ON, make him pay dearly
for this Increase of pleasure.
The whole theory of stimulants may be
summed up ia few words. They are
sometimes useful in cases Of weakness
produced by some diseases. They are
likewise adapted to such as have to under
take an exceptional amount of work TO
which they would be unequal without this
artificial support: but by this means they
also use up their strength more rapidly
and SO shorten their existence. In any
other hypothesis alcoholic stimulents are
hurttui, without single exception, and
through the tyranny of habit they lead
into the hideOus vice Of intomperance,
that worst enemy OF mankind, which low

Many "a man has wanted at some time In
his life steam launch. but either because
he could not afford it or was unwilling to
accept the discomfort which accompanies
the use of such motive power for "a
small boat has foregone the pleasure.
An electric launch would meet the re-
quirements for those who could afford
the first cost Of such a craft, but launches
such as those which won the admiration Of
millions at the worlds fair are expensive,
and require a visit TO a generating plant
once in twenty-four hours. at least to
recharge the batteries. A bright Chicago
man has produced "a machine which APP
pears TO be q solution Of the problem, and
now any man who has a boat from ten
to eighteen feet long can transform her
into an electric launch. without any al
toratious, simply by screwing to the
stern a fitting similar to a row-lock
plate. The motor can then be attached in a
twinkling. This motor is now being shown
in this city
The entire outfit may be briefly de-
scrbed as follows: From the tip OF the til
Ter 10 the screw II Is 81 feet long; about
eighteen inches Of this length consisting
of the motor. controllng-levcr, and till
Ter, are inboard IF the stern-post, that
part running cupboard being simply a
niekel-plated two-inch shaft tube Its
weight is 3j pounds, and the battery
needed 10 run IT weighs from Is TO 275
pounds; the weight varying with the
choice OF primary or storage battery. Tho
two-blade screw IS ten inches I'm diameter,
and just forward of this-on tho shaft
tube-there Is located a steering-fn. Thus
both motor and steering-gear are COM
bined In the same machine With this rig
from one-third to one-half an electric
horsepower can be developed with four
four-ceil batteries, giving twcnty-siX volts.
From three to five miles an hour It is
claimed, can be developed, according to
load and resistance.
The sportsman naturally asks, what
will such a device cost. and how cheaply
can it be run?" This is what is claimed
for it by its inventor: The machine, exclu-
siVe of batteries, costs 500; with batteries
from 1928 to $175. II man is going Off
camping. for instance and cannot con-
veniently reach an electric plant for
charging storage batteries lie simply
takes along primary batteries and sends
ahead by express a carbOy of solution.
The running cost is estimated at from 8
to cents per hour which figures UP
pretty cheaply for a two weeks outing.
The machine can be packed in a case and
transported almost as easily as a gun. In
running fun speed there is almost no vi
bration, scarcely any noise, and no dirt,
Another argument in favor of such an
outfit is that the batteries will run an In
candescent lamp for night sailing fish
ing, or hunting, and at the same time pro-
mel the boat.

Washington, Feb. 3.-Medical men are
watching the case of young George Be
han. who lies on a water-bed in the Emer-
gency hospital Behan was a member of
the Georgetown college foot BAH eleven.
In the Thanksgiving day game with Co
lumbia Athletic Club eleven. he received
an injury to his spine from which be will
never recover From the neck down Be-
han is completely paralyzed. His pulse
is growing weaker. His body is physically
below the scale of vegetable. 1t is alive
and nothing more. Breathing is performed
by the nervous action of the aphragm
and not by aid of the ribs. He is fed
carefully with prepared foods, but in di-
minishing quantities, as his bodily needs
are of the slightest. Above the point Of
injury Behan is alive. He can talk and
his brain is clear and active. He is a
young man of sweet disposition and he
bears his fate with resignation. His shout
ders are IN a plaster cast, to prevent any
sudden movement from causing further
injury to the almost severed nerve action
of the spinal cord.
Leading surgeons who have watched
the case for the past month think that
he may, perhaps, live for years, but adj

ton There is a stronger possibility that
the wonderful life Of Mollie Sanchez, OF
Brooklyn, may be repeated.

it could not be located. The pistol was of
